About this listen

In this episode, Ralph Tribe welcomes two icons of executive coaching and leadership development, Kathleen Saxton (Founder &CEO of Psyched Ventures) and Dom Loehnis (Founder of The Unlock Partnership), for a powerful conversation on leading when there is no steady state.

In an environment that is increasingly brittle, anxious, non-linear, and incomprehensible (BANI), the old model of leadership is failing.

The conversation covers why the dramatic fall in CEO tenure reflects the exhausting and unpredictable nature of modern leadership. Kathleen and Dom argue that the only way to retain trust and provide stable direction in this chaotic environment is by emphasizing congruency (consistency) and committing to the internal work of "Know Thyself". Leaders must embrace a mindset of adaptability, giving direction based on "as far as the eye can see" rather than promising a strategy that will last "forever."
