The Leadership Telos: Pursuing purpose through virtue, faith, and formation
What is Virtuous Leadership?
In this very first episode, we’re asking a foundational question:
What does it mean to lead with virtue?
As an Industrial-Organizational Psychologist, leadership coach, and someone deeply rooted in theology, philosophy, and psychology, I believe the leaders we become — at work, in our homes, and within ourselves — shape the world around us.
