In this episode of the Power of Peacefulness Podcast, we explore the hidden leadership habits that quietly sabotage teams, damage morale, and reduce trust, often without leaders realizing it. We discuss the most common leadership blind spots affecting women in leadership today, including micromanagement, conflict avoidance, perfectionism, emotional suppression, and prioritizing productivity over people. Backed by workplace psychology and leadership research, this conversation will help you become a more self-aware, emotionally intelligent, and effective leader.
