 The Long Game:How to be a long-term thinker in a short-term world by Dorie Clark

In this episode of the Race, Wealth, and Health Podcast, host Dr. Joycelyn Morris sits down with executive coach Anita Kishore to unpack an important leadership question: What happens when the skills that helped you succeed early in your career stop working at higher levels of leadership?

Together, they explore how analytically minded leaders—those who thrive on data, logic, and direct communication—often find themselves needing a new set of tools as their roles expand. Anita shares how many leaders naturally lead “from the head,” but as teams grow and responsibilities increase—especially in remote and hybrid workplaces—building trust, connection, and influence becomes just as critical as technical expertise.

Through practical examples and coaching insights, Anita explains how leaders can improve communication across different personality styles, deliver feedback more effectively, and create stronger team relationships. She also highlights why learning to delegate, ask better questions, and empower others to solve problems is key to developing trust and influence at the executive level.

Whether you're an analytical leader navigating a new leadership role or someone looking to strengthen your communication and executive presence, this episode offers thoughtful insights on how coaching can help unlock deeper impact and influence.
