Leading Yourself, Your Team, and Your Leaders | Mark Silverman

Mark Silverman discusses the inspiration behind his book, The Rising Leader Handbook, and delves into the key themes of his coaching philosophy. He emphasizes that all leaders are continually "rising." Our conversation highlights the importance of self-awareness, leading oneself, and navigating organizational dynamics, such as leading up, leading peers, and becoming a trusted advisor. Mark shares insights on his coaching methods, including using 360 feedback and personality tests like the Enneagram to help clients recognize habitual behaviors and enhance leadership skills. His approach focuses on separating behaviors from personal identity, which helps leaders improve without taking feedback personally.
