In this episode of The Inner Edge, executive coach Janet Ioli unpacks the third leadership trap: mistaking familiar, wired-in reactions for authenticity. Through the story of Marcus, an executive who kept hearing the same feedback at every level of his career, Janet shows how "I'm just being real" can become the exact thing that blocks a leade...
