Confessions of a Terrible Leader

In this episode, Layci interviews change consultant Carl King about his journey and the importance of navigating change. Carl shares his background and the various paths he has taken, including being a preacher and a professional musician. He emphasizes his purpose of helping people and being their best selves. The conversation then delves into the challenges of identity shifts and the impact they have on relationships. Carl discusses the role of leaders in guiding change and the importance of effective communication. He also confesses to not being a good communicator in the past and the complications it caused. Carl dives into a personal story about making assumptions and the importance of effective communication. He recounts a time when he assumed everyone in the church he was leading felt the same way about the church's mission, only to discover that there was a disconnect between his vision and the congregation's desires. This experience taught him the significance of clear communication and shared vision in leadership. Carl emphasizes the need for leaders to create awareness and build a hunger for change among their team members, rather than simply providing knowledge. He also highlights the importance of giving people time to process and accept change before taking action.
