Leadership today is at a crossroads. Despite best intentions, many leaders struggle to create meaningful growth, not because they lack vision, but because traditional systems reward control over curiosity, quick fixes over reflection, and answers over the right questions.
In this powerful episode, we’re joined by Dave Reynolds, leadership consultant and author of Radicle Growth, to challenge everything you think you know about coaching and leadership. Drawing from decades of experience and real-world examples, Dave reveals why most leadership development fails and how organizations can ignite lasting change by shifting focus from top-down direction to collaborative discovery.
This conversation dives deep into the psychology and practice of asking transformative questions. Dave explains how a single mentor—armed only with powerful, well-timed questions—completely reshaped his career, and why that same approach can unlock innovation, ownership, and capacity in your team.
