About this episode

This episode explores how to lead and inspire others even when not in a position of authority, using the Colbert Questionnert as a self-development tool.

Singing in a choir can be a chaotic experience, and the conductor can’t be everywhere (or hear everything) all at once. How can you guide and inspire the people around you when you’re not the final authority? I find the Colbert Questionnert to be incredibly helpful when it comes to deciding how I want to move through the world. If you haven't yet explored this self-development tool, listen to today's episode. I offer a bite-sized introduction to it and an exercise that will help you become a more effective leader, even when you're not in charge. I’d love to know if this was helpful!
