About this listen

Is “lead by example” the golden rule of leadership, or is it incomplete?

In this episode of Wisdom Under Fire, Cara and Lauren unpack the origins of this familiar phrase, from ancient philosophy to modern leadership thinking. Part leadership playbook, part reality check, the conversation might make you rethink how you show up every day.

If you answer emails on weekends… your team probably feels like they have to.
If you jump in and do the work… your team won’t forget it.

We share stories from the workplace, questioning whether example is enough, and asking a bigger question: What do people actually follow—your actions or your vision?
