AEM #93 Zena Me - Leadership, Trauma, Eldership and Boarding School

An Evolving Man Podcast

What is good leadership? What makes a great leader? What is a servant leader? And how does boarding school impact our leaders?

Today I am speaking with leadership expert, Zena Me who has worked for decades with CEOs and senior leaders.

She talks about the keys of great leadership: the importance of emotional and spiritual intelligence, humility and serving the wider system.

A really fascinating conversation.
