Episode 28: The Leadership Code — Humility

Humility in leadership is not weakness. It is the ability to change course when the evidence demands it, to credit the team for the wins and own the losses, and to build something that will outlast you, even when you'll never get credit for it. In the fourth installment of The Leadership Code, Charles Evans draws on Jim Collins' Level 5 Leadership research from Good to Great to explore why the leaders who built enduring organizations were not the loudest or the most charismatic, they were the ones who combined extreme personal humility with fierce professional will. Collins' formula was simple: Humility + Will = Level 5. This episode breaks down how humility manifests in adapting without ego, practicing the window and the mirror, and building for the successor rather than the legacy. #LeadOnPurpose
