  • 021: Show and Tell: Why Visibility Matters for Leadership Growth
    Aug 5 2025

    Let your performance speak volumes

    In this episode of Leadership Transformations, we explore why consistent, visible performance is the foundation of influence and leadership credibility. Janet Taggart returns to discuss the first half of the classic “show and tell” concept, as well as how showing up, following through, and delivering results over time earns the trust and opportunities leaders need to grow.

    Listen in as Janet explains why simply doing great work isn’t enough and why you must also be intentional about how your performance is seen and understood. You’ll hear real-world examples of leaders who built (or undermined) their reputations based on what they showed, and why consistency is the real secret to leadership success.

    Today we’ll talk about…

    • [00:02:25]: Why visibility isn’t about ego—it’s about impact
    • [00:03:35]: What “showing” looks like in leadership and why it builds credibility

    • [00:08:05]: How to stay grounded when others appear to get ahead without delivering
    • [00:10:00]: What to do if you’re struggling with delivery and need to rebuild trust
