The Language That Transforms: How Words Shape Leadership
Leadership isn't about controlling others - it's about mastering yourself. This profound insight sits at the heart of Wendy Born's transformative approach to leadership. After 25 years in corporate environments spanning finance, IT, retail, and government, Born discovered that authentic leadership begins with language - not just what we say, but how we show up in every interaction. What makes her perspective particularly refreshing is her acknowledgment that her two children taught her more about leadership than formal training ever could. This humility permeates her philosophy, creating a leadership approach that feels both accessible and profound. Leaders today face unprecedented challenges: virtual teams across time zones, rapid technological change, cross-generational workforces, and increasing stakeholder demands. Born's breakthrough insight is deceptively simple: while you can't control others, you can control your own leadership language. When things go wrong, we often blame others rather than examining our approach. This blame-shifting stems from the Fundamental Attribution Error - our tendency to attribute others' behavior to their personality while explaining our own actions through circumstances. The solution lies in shifting focus from what's outside your control to what you can influence - your own behaviors.
