Are you leading with influence or just pushing your agenda? Too many leaders believe success comes from being right, but what if true impact starts with slowing down and listening?
In this episode, workplace culture consultant and Ridley Consulting Group CEO, Beth Ridley, shares why seeking to understand can create more lasting influence than “winning” the moment.
Discover the difference between understanding and agreement, why small habits matter more than grand gestures, and a practical approach any leader can use to foster genuine connection—even during conflict.
Ever wondered why some people make you feel truly heard, while others don’t? Find out what it takes to become that kind of leader. This episode features Beth Ridley and focuses on the surprising power of understanding as a leadership superpower.
Episode Highlights:
07:45 - People are going to be more inspired to trust you and to listen to you if they first feel heard and understood.
08:30 - To me, understanding is not the same as changing your mind or backing down from your argument, which I think is the most important thing. It's first just getting to that first step of, okay, I understand what you're saying, and now actually that makes me smarter. So I win.
12:10 - Curiosity opens the door to understanding. And again, as long as you separate understanding and agreement, those can be two different things that can actually coexist really beautifully that leads to influence.
15:31 - I think he would have been a lot more open and not stormed up the stairs and like slammed the door if I, in that moment of extreme being upset, because he went against what I believed was the right approach, to catch myself pause. Tell me a little bit more about why you thought that was a good idea or tell me a little bit more about why you did that. Because they're usually people do have a decent reason, right? Unless they really are crazy. They do have a decent reason.
