#20: Miles Adcox—6 Characteristics that Will Make You an Emotionally Strong Leader

Published: Nov. 28, 2016, 10 a.m.

Can we be real with each other? Leading a business packs a big emotional punch. The stress of the day-to-day. The immense pressure to succeed. The isolation at the top. The strangeness of managing an image. It’s a heavy burden to carry around -- and it takes a toll on us. That’s why it’s critical to care for your inner life and develop your emotional intelligence. If you do, you can forge a great home life and company culture. If you don’t, you can destroy it all. I’m thrilled to have Miles Adcox joining me for this week's episode of the Building a Story Brand podcast. He’s the CEO of the therapeutic retreat center Onsite, and he’s been helping leaders with this unique burden for over a decade. Miles has a six-part guiding framework that can help you create and sustain emotional fitness as a leader. It will change your company culture -- but more importantly, it will change people’s lives, including your own. We talk a lot at StoryBrand about growing your business, but you can’t do that without growing yourself, too. Start with this week's podcast! http://buildingastorybrand.com
