Leadership used to be about command and control.
Over time, it has become much more inclusive and collaborative.
However, I feel that the quiet leaders among us still feel the pressure to be louder and more outgoing than they may naturally be.
In this episode, I look at the benefits of quiet leadership and offer some tips for those quiet leaders out there.

Thank you for this podcast.
I am a quiet leader… people don’t really notice quiet leaders, and don’t even think of them as leaders.
However, I got once things done at an incredible pace, because I have this ability to understand dynamics, motivation and people, and leverage my team capacity.
In my previous role, I delivered an incredible organisational transformation: nobody questioned it, whether my team or the organisation I was working in… Until they realise what I delivered when I left.
Sadly, the advantage of (“some” because I don’t want to put them all in the same box) vocal leaders is their ability to take advantage of your quietness, and pride themselves for the work you deliver.
You are welcome Coralie – keep at it – we need quiet leaders just as much (if not more) than the loud ones!
