Kevin Neal: Leadership: Climbing to the Top Together
Update: 2025-07-31
Description
In this episode, Kevin discusses:
- The Myth of "Getting to the Top" in leadership
- Why viewing leadership as a solo climb is fundamentally flawed
- The importance of using your leadership perspective to help others
- How true leadership is about connection, not control
- The danger of seeing yourself as "above" your team
Key Takeaways:
- The top is a vantage point, not a destination. It gives you perspective, but it’s not designed to sustain you or your leadership.
- True leadership reveals itself in what you do after you reach success: do you stay alone, or do you use your view to guide others?
- Control isn’t leadership. When you hoard influence or insight, you disconnect from the very people you’re meant to empower.
- Your role isn’t to be above others — it’s to serve as a guide, to share what you’ve seen, and help others find their own way up.
- You don’t have to wait to be “at the top” to be of value. No matter where you are in your journey, someone can benefit from your perspective.
"Leadership is not something that we carry in our pocket. It's something that we live." – Kevin Neal
