Episode 17 - HOW REAL LEADERS LEAD WHEN THEIR BACK IS AGAINST THE WALL

 

HOW REAL LEADERS LEAD WHEN THEIR BACK IS AGAINST THE WALL

When life gets hectic, leaders don’t just feel the pressure – they often show it.
Not publicly. Not in the boardroom.
But internally, in the identity they lead from.

In this week’s episode of The Sales Leader of Influence SHOW, I’m unpacking what leadership looks like when you feel like your back is against the wall… and you are still expected to make clear decisions, keep people aligned, and stay steady.

We’ll dive into:

• How pressure exposes the old version of you that you’ve potentially outgrown
• How to leverage 'The Gap' before reacting
• Why uncertainty isn’t destabilising – it’s often the arena for your next level
• What your team actually needs from you in this season

This is NOT a conversation about burnout or struggle.
It’s a grounded look at the moments no one sees – and how to navigate them with strength, presence, and influence.

If you’re in a season where you’re juggling decisions, carrying expectations, and holding the line… I'm sure this episode will land.
