Hi, This is Loren Weisman and this is the podcast video supplement for episode 87 In what I have here, in the title below, what is transformational leadership? I talked about this in the podcast on Monday when I interviewed Ford Taylor of TL, of Transformational Leadership
My answer, my personal answer and a lot of people have a lot of different answers Transformational Leadership is as personalized and individualized as you make it for you This is not some situation where it is a guide by guide, step by step that hits every single person the exact same way Different elements of your leadership, whether its inside of a business, whether it’s inside of a relationship, inside of a family, inside of conflict Inside of the past, inside of the present, inside of what you want to do in the future
Transformational Leadership is what you take from it and the pieces that you need to take rom it I just finished the two day course I was there with Ford Taylor And my experience, I believe, could be miles different, miles away from the person sitting next to me had And one of the people sitting next to me, good deal older than me, experienced great levels of success and at the same time, watching him, he was grabbing pieces, and there were certain things that Ford was saying, and they meant one thing to me, but I could clearly see they meant something different to him
The same thing There was a table with a younger woman, maybe 19 or 20 that was there And I can’t even imagine what came through to her, what she took away What resonated The point being, inside of this, its thinking about your leadership style, your communication style, looking back at how you connect
Some people call it semantics Its not semantics The simple ways you open doors to relationships The way that you open to an employee or even an employer Transformational Leadership to me, is a fundamental revisitation of every aspect of what I do, of what I do inside of branding, of what I do inside of talking and what I have inside of my relationships, both personally and professionally
And unlike anything I have ever seen before And I have been a part of a lot of leadership conferences, where I have spoken from the marketing and branding standpoint I have been a part of a lot books that I’ve read and Ive looked at and even, there was a book that I tired to help format, but there was an inauthenticity to it This is authentic This is true
And the other element about this is, it ranges from the mom and pop to the start up to the 18 year old, all the way to the 78 year old And everywhere in between Transformational Leadership is exactly that Its transforming And how it transforms you and how it helps you with your business, your products, your employees, the people you work for and your success as a whole, is completely up to you
