Authentic leadership involves balancing composure with vulnerability.

Like all founders, Adam Weber started out as a “clunky” leader, unsure of what strategies to use to rally his team. From his experience co-founding Bluebridge and Emplify (which was acquired by 15Five), Adam shares his growth as an executive, the challenges of building a transparent culture, and how coaching has profoundly impacted both his personal and professional life.

Tune in to hear how Adam's journey led him to discover a passion for executive coaching and his secrets to staying resilient through the ups and downs of business.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

Lead Authentically for Real Impact: Authenticity in leadership isn’t just a buzzword; it’s transformative. When you lead as your authentic self, it drives genuine team performance and a thriving culture. Remember, your realness is your greatest asset—use it!
Culture Building in Remote Teams: Growing a company remotely comes with its own set of complexities, especially when it comes to establishing a strong culture. Transparency and intentionality are your secret weapons. Clearly communicate your vision and values so your team feels united even while dispersed.
Scalable Success Without Losing Vision: Growth can feel like navigating a minefield, but maintaining scalable processes while keeping sight of your original vision is pivotal. Prioritize structures that grow with you; let’s turn your dreams into sustainable realities.
