SPOS #714 – Michael Bungay Stanier on Humble And Curious Leaders

Welcome to episode #714 of Six Pixels of Separation.

Here it is: Six Pixels of Separation – Episode #714 – Host: Mitch Joel. My friend, Michael Bungay Stanier, is at the forefront of shaping how organizations around the world make being coach-like an essential leadership behavior and competency. His book, The Coaching Habit, has sold over 700,000 copies and has over 1,000 five-star reviews on Amazon. In 2019, he was named the #1 thought leader in coaching, and was shortlisted for the coaching prize by Thinkers50. Michael was the first Canadian Coach of the Year and has been named a Global Coaching Guru since 2014. If you still don’t think that he’s all that smart, he was a Rhodes Scholar. Michael is the Founder of Box of Crayons and a hyper-compelling keynote speaker. He’s been on the show before, but is back to talk about his newly-published book, The Advice Trap – Be humble, stay curious and change the way you lead forever. It’s another sure-to-be bestseller. Enjoy the conversation….
