The Coachable Leader - Kevin Wilde

Season #9 Episode #8

In this week’s Growth Edge leadership podcast episode, I sit down for a fantastic conversation with Kevin Wilde, author of the book Coachability: The Leadership Superpower. Kevin is an Executive Leadership Fellow at the University of Minnesota’s Carlson School of Management. He retired in 2015 from a 34 year corporate career in leadership and talent development at General Electric and General Mills.

 

We discuss:

 - strategies for improving coachability

 - avoiding false finish lines

 - keeping company with Truth Tellers (T2s)

 - the attributes that most reliably align to coachability in leaders

 - tips for managing and expanding your learning zone
