Why Self-Awareness is Key to Becoming a Great Leader / Jeremie Kubicek

JEREMIE KUBICEK, an author of several books about leadership, confidently expounds on the importance of leadership that “transforms” business in the context of knowing a specific culture and how it impacts the potentials of business in producing good leaders.

Jeremie also talks about the differences between leaders who merely “perform” to achieve individual successes, versus leaders who know the value of improving relationships.

Jeremie stresses that leaders must help others to achieve their goals so they can be leaders themselves.

The book author moreover emphasizes the dynamic approach to leadership that helps businesses. A leadership that aims to develop people’s strengths and support them instead of merely giving set goals or challenges that others must conquer as part of a team.

This was the main tone of the podcast which suggests that leadership is “moving the best version of ourselves… to improve everyone around us”, which the host states at the early part of his talk with Jeremie.

“Liberty, freedom, and love. These are all values to create a fertile soil to allow people to grow”- Jeremie Kubicek

The author speaks about how culture affects leadership.
Kubicek also takes note of the existence of a compliant culture and that of a culture that dominates. He is of the opinion that culture must have opportunities for businesses, for leaders to grow and thrive.
Among the things one must task to develop leadership in others is to know the strengths and weaknesses of people. To know them on a personal or individual level, whether they need challenges or support from their leader.

The concept of helping others as a leader can raise questions on whether a person must do so at the possibility of being outshined by his/her own team members. With this statement, Jeremie Kubicek assures aspiring leaders to take a step to go past one’s insecurities and act more with integrity by denying oneself of that want to lead or be number one. Rather one must strive to be a leader who supports other people’s goals and ambitions so they can be leaders as well. Thus, the success of a leader is measured by how one can produce people who can also help others while being leaders in business.
