About this listen
When your team is running hard and still burning out, the answer is rarely “work harder.” It is usually “lead better.”
In this episode, I sit down with Kurt Uhlir to unpack what he calls multiplying leaders and why it is one of the most powerful strategies to fight burnout and boost performance. Kurt explains why the best leaders are often not the top individual performers, but the people who see how all the pieces fit together and know how to coach others to succeed.
We talk about why promoting your highest performer can backfire, how to spot “quiet leaders” on your team, and what it really looks like to build a leadership pipeline that protects people from burnout rather than driving them into it. If you care about burnout, leadership, coaching, performance, and team dynamics, this conversation will give you language and tools you can use right away.
