Lead Like A Drug Addict

Why do 70% of employees hide from difficult conversations?

Why in an age where we are hyperconnected in true connection at an all time low? (Did you know that when you lose wifi, the most common emotion we feel is ... isolation!)?

I'm in conversation with Michael Brody-Waite. Definitely one of my most insightful and valuable interviews. "The way we treat others is the way we treat ourselves", says Michael. We explore how we harm ourselves and those we serve by hiding behind one or several of 4 masks.

Do you:

Hold back your unique perspective?
Hide your weaknesses?
Not know when to say no?
Not surrendering to the outcome

Michael’s TEDx Nashville YouTube video “Great Leaders Do What Drug Addicts Do” is stunning. It's been seen by over one million people in over twenty-five countries and provides insight into his seventeen-year journey from addiction and near homelessness to CEO and co-founder of an Inc. 500 startup that he sold to a publicly-traded company.

This talk grabbed my attention. It sparked the #MaskFreeMovement and brought awareness to Michael’s Mask-Free Program, built on three principles inspired by his recovery, showing leaders how to achieve balance, reclaim energy, and thrive in work and life.

Michael is a recovering addict, acclaimed speaker, entrepreneur, award-winning three-time CEO, leadership coach, and author. His accomplishments include being named a Most Admired CEO, named to the Top 40 Under 40, and being recognised by the Nashville Chamber of Commerce as Healthcare Entrepreneur of the Year.

Today, Michael is on a mission to teach individuals, organisations, and communities how to lead themselves by living mask-free. In his personal time, he is focused on being the best husband, father, and recovering addict he can be.
