My guest today is Joan Fletcher. Joan is the founder of Winning Ways and as an executive leadership coach, she’s dedicated more than 30 years of her life to empowering high performing leaders and their teams to achieve remarkable personal and professional outcomes. I met Joan through a kind introduction made by Shannon Cochran-Yzquierdo, who’s been on my podcast several times, sharing her amazing stories.  Thank you for this wonderful connection, Shannon! Joan is the author of The Leadership Evolution, which is based on her decades of work and experiences.  She zeros in on the one thing that can help leaders go from “just okay” to truly effective. In our conversation today, Joan shares this key, self-awareness, and a some reflections to deepen our self-awareness in profound ways.  Joan, thank you so very much for this conversation.  Thank you for sharing these pieces of your story, the wisdom with which you approach your work and life, and thank you for the inspirational questions and reflections… I’m still pondering them and soaking them in.
