Imagine being in a state of shock—your body functions, but you feel powerless. Pete Steinberg draws a parallel between this experience and the sensation leaders face when transitioning to new roles or levels within their organizations. Despite the appearance of normalcy, you find yourself navigating uncharted waters, with meetings happening and teams moving, yet a lack of control prevails. Pete offers insights on how to navigate these changes with intentionality and self-awareness. He discusses the authentic leadership model, highlighting the importance of purpose, role expectations, vision, priorities, beliefs, and principles. He also shares why aligning priorities with purpose and vision is crucial for effective leadership.

He is a leadership and innovation expert with extensive experience consulting with top Fortune 500 professionals. He also has more than 20 years of experience as an elite rugby coach, coaching the USA Women’s Rugby Team at two World Cups and the Rio Olympics. As a former U.S., international, and Olympic sports coach and commentator for major outlets such as CBS, ESPN, and Fox Sports, Pete has a track record of bringing teams to victory. He has won 11 National Championships with the Penn State Women, MARFU Men, and Temple Women rugby teams. Pete was the Head of Coach Development for USA Rugby, leading the program as it became integrated into the World Rugby programs.

How do you move through stressful situations? Errol Doebler suggests you become an "ice cold” leader. Errol explains that science says our nervous system resets with cold (ice bath, cold shower…). When we clear our minds, we can focus on problem-solving. Errol shares his five-element process for problem-solving and decision-making and provides a framework for self-awareness and reflection. This process not only enhances individual leadership skills but also has a ripple effect on teams and organizations. By modeling self-awareness and reflection, leaders create a culture of continuous improvement and foster a positive work environment. As leaders embrace awareness and reflection, they unlock their full potential and make a lasting impact on their teams and organizations.
