The Miles to Zen Podcast with Shannon Miles Halliday

The Art of Teamwork: Leading with Curiosity, Authenticity, and Perspective

Shannon Miles Halliday Season 1 Episode 37

In this engaging episode of the Miles To Zen podcast, Shannon welcomes leadership coach Matthew Gould, who delves into his journey from a sales job to becoming a popular leadership coach working with teams to enhance unity and success. Matthew shares his experiences with failure, the importance of humility, and his ongoing pursuit of leadership excellence. Through lively discussions on curiosity, creativity, and connection, Matthew offers valuable insights into the role of core values, and the impact of perspectives in both personal and team dynamics. Highlighting the significance of remaining open, curious, and connected, this episode is a treasure trove of wisdom for anyone looking to improve their leadership and relational skills.

They get talk about Wayne Dyer and a personal story, how both of them listened to the whole podcast on Diary of a CEO with Evy Pompouras and how they disagreed with her to start with and even the Telepathy Tapes comes up in that “being a true skeptic requires an open mind.”
