S3 Ep 2 - A CEO’s Three Ms: Mountaineering, Mindsets, and Modernizing Leadership

Guest: Aldo Boitano

What does climbing K2 – the world’s second-highest and deadliest mountain – teach about leadership?

 

Pretty much everything, according to guest Aldo Boitano. The CEO, founder, consultant, and former International Leadership Association board member reveals how his mountain climbing and Antarctic expeditions taught him the most critical skills modern leaders need.

  2. Why exposure to uncomfortable perspectives provides hidden power; and
  3. How stepping outside your comfort zone sparks your own development.

 

TRIGGER WARNING: The topic of suicide arises in the conversation around the seven-minute point.

S11 Ep18: Disrupted! How to Break Free of Your Old Leadership Habits

S11 Ep18: Disrupted! How to Break Free of Your Old Leadership Habits

Guest: Mark Monchek

What on earth is an Unconference?

 

Traditional leadership models are cracking under the weight of today’s rapid change. Strategist and unconference co-creator Mark Monchek reveals why legacy leadership models—top-down authority, rigid planning, and competition-first thinking—are no longer fit for a world defined by disruption. The solution will come through the unconference: a new, intensive, and far more effective way to grow as a leader. It can reshape leadership development through collaboration, experiential learning, and ongoing community.

Here's what Mark and Maureen cover:

  • Why control-based leadership is losing effectiveness;
  • How AI is changing the skills leaders need to be successful (for one, they have to learn to be more human!; and
  • The unconference format, and how that leads to more rapid and meaningful leadership growth.

S4 Ep11: The Power of Polarity Thinking: How Great Leaders Leverage Opposites

S4 Ep11: The Power of Polarity Thinking: How Great Leaders Leverage Opposites

Guest: Dr. Barry Johnson

If you think you have to solve problems, think again. You might be better off leveraging tensions instead!

Dr. Barry Johnson, creator of the Polarity Map®, joins host Maureen Metcalf to explore how “both/and” thinking helps leaders navigate complexity, avoid false choices, and drive sustainable performance. From clarity and flexibility to structure and innovation, Barry shares how thriving organizations—and societies—balance competing values rather than pick sides. It’s called polarity thinking…and it works. Packed with stories from the U.S. Navy, Singapore Airlines, and South Africa, this conversation offers a powerful framework for leading in uncertain times.

Here's what Barry and Maureen cover:

  1. Why choosing a side or over-focusing on one side of an issue can lead to conflict, instead of solving it – and, in extreme cases, break down your organization;
  2. How high-performing organizations depend on well-managed tension; and
  3. Spotting the false choices that will keep your team stuck.
