In today's episode, we delve into the transformative power of self-compassion in leadership with our recurring guest, Massimo Backus—an esteemed executive coach and author of Human First, Leader Second. Together, Andy and Massimo explore why self-compassion is a vital, yet often overlooked, skill for effective leadership, challenging the traditional emphasis on emotional toughness.
Massimo, who has been on the podcast multiple times, brings fresh insights from his new book and shares practical frameworks for incorporating self-compassion into daily leadership practices.
They discuss:
The challenges leaders face in being kinder to themselvesHow this mindset shift can improve long-term resilience and team dynamicsThe importance of mindfulness, creating mental space, and balancing professional decorum with authenticityThis episode is packed with actionable advice, real-life examples, and the latest research to help leaders at all levels enhance their well-being, performance, and relationships within their organizations. So, whether you’re managing a team or trying to navigate your own career journey, this episode offers invaluable tools for driving sustainable success through self-compassion.
Massimo built his successful executive coaching practice based on the radical idea that self-compassion is a leadership epiphany. It is radical because it is in direct opposition to the traditional leadership orthodoxy that you have to become less of a human to be a better leader. Now through his coaching practice, group facilitation, speaking and the launch of his upcoming book Human First, Leader Second, Massimo is taking his message of self-compassion to the C-suites of the Fortune 1000.
