Ecosystem Leadership w/ April Michelle Ball — Break Old Systems, Build What’s Next | EP 158

Transformational strategist April Michelle Ball unpacks how to diagnose stagnation, redesign culture, and build ecosystems that actually scale. We cover the difference between “systems” and the frameworks that shape them, why frustration is a signal your framework is off, and how to lead multi-generational teams (Boomers ↔ Gen Z) with emotional intelligence, resilience, and confidence. April shares faith-driven principles for creating safe, culture-shaping spaces, integrating mental health, and staying agile amid megatrends like AI—treating technology as a tool that amplifies your values rather than replaces them. You’ll learn:

• A simple definition of ecosystem leadership and how your roles coexist
• How to spot the wall (frustration) and rebuild the right frameworks
• Culture as an organization’s “personality”—and how to reshape it
• Practical EI: read the room, set boundaries, and build trust
• Leading across generations without losing your core values
• Becoming agile: curiosity, parallel-industry mentors, and continuous learning
