408. Hans-Werner Kaas of The Bower Forum Shares How to Turn Leadership Struggles into Transformative Success

In this episode of The Mentors Radio, Host Tom Loarie talks with Hans-Werner Kass, co-dean of McKinsey’s CEO Leadership Program, The Bower Forum, and co-author of The Journey of Leadership: How CEOs Learn to Lead from the Inside Out. You’ll learn how to go from self-doubt, to driving bold organizational change and actionable steps to achieve goals, leading from the inside out; a truly eye-opening journey! Culling from decades of experience counseling top CEOs around the globe, Hans-Werner has gained an unparalleled view into the minds and behaviors of many leaders. His work has enabled him to see first-hand the personal and professional struggles of CEOs, giving him unique insights into why they struggle and how they can grow. Often leaders do not have anyone to talk to peer-to-peer. The Bower Forum provides a safe space for CEOs to open up about their fears, something rarely talked about and rarely discussed in other leadership books. Kaas and his team show these leaders how to overcome what is holding them back and key steps they can take to lead their organizations to success. For leaders, especially CEOs, it’s action and example (not words) that truly drives organizational success and boosts individual and team productivity. In this conversation, Hans-Werner will share not only how he has helped leaders transform, but also the deeper reasons behind their challenges. You’ll learn practical insights and inspiring stories you won’t want to miss!
