Becoming a Better Leader Starts Within – Ryan Gottfredson on Mindset, Vertical Growth & Purpose
Description
In this eye-opening episode, leadership consultant, author, and mindset researcher Ryan Gottfredson joins David Dahlén D'Cruz to explore what it really takes to grow into the kind of leader today’s world needs.
Forget quick hacks or surface-level strategies - Ryan shares how true transformation begins by elevating our internal operating system through what he calls vertical development.
We dive into:
- Why most leadership programs fail to create lasting change
- The difference between horizontal vs. vertical growth
- The four essential mindset shifts that drive leadership transformation
- Why so many leaders are stuck in Mind 1.0 or 2.0, and how to reach Mind 3.0
- How fear, ego, and self-protection sabotage leadership — and how to break through
This episode is especially powerful for emerging leaders, young professionals, and purpose-driven individuals ready to grow not just in skills - but in self-awareness, vision, and capacity for impact.
