Description

What actually makes leadership effective? In this episode, we explore why context, fit, and behavioral feedback matter more than checklists or credentials.


In this episode, we're joined by Kevin Impelman, Principal Consultant at Summit Leadership Partners, to unpack the practical side of leadership—how to select, support, and develop leaders in ways that actually align with what the organization needs. From private equity to executive coaching, Kevin shares actionable insights from over 20 years in the field.

Whether you’re in HR, consulting, or senior leadership, this episode challenges one-size-fits-all models and emphasizes the power of feedback, context, and tailored development.
