In 2005 I ran a sales organization with one rule: nothing left my team without going through me. Our performance reviews were exceptional, and I was sure that was leadership. It took me years to see what it cost. My people stopped bringing me ideas. They brought me drafts and waited.

In this solo episode I tell the story behind my new book, Recoded. Every one of us leads with a code we didn’t write. It comes from a parent, a first boss, or the culture we grew up in, and for many of us it says control the outcome and be the hero. I share where my own code came from, how two months with an Arabian horse named Bravo started to change it, and the habit I’m working on this week.

If you got promoted for being good at the work and your team has gone quiet, this one is for you. You’ll leave with one small thing to try before the next episode.

Recoded is out now in paperback, and every copy comes with the Recoded Action Pack.
