Leadership isn’t about titles, it’s about self-awareness, accountability, and a growth mindset. In this episode of Unfinished Business, host David Sliman sits down with Dr. Gary McGrath, CEO of Statarius and creator of the LeaderStep7™ program, to unpack what it really takes to go from good boss to great leader.
With a background in the military, corporate sales, and leadership coaching for Fortune 500 companies, Dr. Gary shares how emotional intelligence, questioning, and compassionate accountability transform both business cultures and personal relationships. If you're leading a team, scaling a company, or trying to elevate your own leadership DNA, this one hits home.
Key Takeaways:
- Why emotional intelligence matters more than charisma – And how to develop it.
- Compassionate accountability – How to lead with both empathy and high standards.
- Forget authority and become a coach – Why the best leaders ask better questions (and listen harder).
