S7|G32 Stop Apologizing for Being the Leader with Kim Miller-Hershon

Published 1 week, 2 days ago
Description
What if the most expensive thing you're doing in your business right now is softening your leadership to make sure everyone around you is comfortable with it?

  In this episode of That Will Nevr Work, Maurice sits down with Kim Miller-Hershon — executive coach, founder of Kim Miller-Hershon Coaching and Consulting, known widely as "The Queen of Productivity," and a nearly two-decade veteran of empowering high-achieving leaders across startups and Fortune 500 companies. With a double major in communication and economics from UC Santa Barbara and a double master's in public administration and nonprofit management, Kim combines academic rigour with deep personal experience: much of her inspiration for helping others overcome obstacles comes from overcoming her own. Kim's work lives at the intersection of three things most leadership development programs treat as separate: communication, confidence, and the willingness to lead without apology. Her conviction is as clear as it is confronting — you can be brilliant, credentialed, experienced, and deeply caring, and still be accidentally undermining your own authority every day with the way you communicate, the things you delegate (or don't), and the "yeses" you keep giving when the business needs your "no." 

  In this conversation, Kim and Maurice explore:
  • What apologetic leadership looks and sounds like — and what it's costing you
  • The difference between delegating and delegating well — the art and the science
  • Kim's personal transformation story and what it built in her as a coach
  • The three decisions that break the bottleneck pattern and expand your leadership ceiling
  • Why communication is not one skill among many — it's the language through which all other leadership is expressed
  • How imposter syndrome and overthinking trap even the most accomplished leaders
  • What it actually means to create more leaders instead of more followers
  This one is for every leader who is good at their work and secretly exhausted by the weight of doing it in a way that requires everyone else's approval.
