Description
The Podcast analyses an article by Greg Twemlow about the nature of heroism and leadership, drawing on the philosophies of Robert Greenleaf and the Stoics. Twemlow argues that true heroism lies in taking responsibility for one's actions and choices, even in the face of uncertainty and adversity. He further proposes that embracing a "servant leadership" model, as advocated by Greenleaf, and focusing on what is within our control, as per the Stoic philosophy, are crucial elements in becoming the hero of one's own life.
