No matter your title — CEO, team lead, solopreneur, or emerging leader — you influence the people around you. Uncover your natural leadership style to help you better understand your strengths, your blind spots, and how you show up for others.

Using real-world examples and a breakdown of four core leadership archetypes—Visionary, Operator, Processor, and Synergist—you’ll learn how to:

·  Recognize your leadership “superpowers”

·  Adapt to and collaborate with different leadership styles

·  Avoid burnout by aligning your energy with the right role

·  Communicate more effectively across teams and settings

You’ll leave with practical tools and self-awareness that can elevate how you lead—wherever you are in your journey.
