Magic in the Room #138: An Introduction to Intentional Leadership
March 6, 2023
We are kicking off a new season of Magic in the Room with a four-part series on Intentional Leadership. In this episode, Hannah, Luke, and Chris make the case that everyone is a leader, no matter their job title. Because we are all leaders, we can intentionally influence the people and situations we encounter.
We define Intentional Leadership as a three-step process:
- We notice something that could be better
- We choose how to change things for the better
- We act to make the change
By cultivating our capacity to notice, ability to choose, and courage to act, everyone can have a more significant positive impact on the world around them.
