How to Become a Conscious Leader Even if You’re Solo with Kymm Nelsen [LLC 023]

Is leadership an inside job? Why is it important for people to learn how to “be” before they can “do” and “have”? Can a business owner lead when he/she has no employees yet? These are all questions leaders must explore during their entrepreneurial journey. In this episode, we’re talking about how business owners can become conscious leaders when they’re still a company of one and as they grow.  I’m joined by the host of the Conscious Leadership Weekly podcast and founder of the Institute for Conscious Leadership, Kymm Nelsen. For nearly 20 years, Kymm has been on a mission to inspire professionals toward holistic business practices. She is completing her doctorate in Social Psychology, with her dissertation research focused on the impact leader stress has on organizational success.  What You’ll Learn in This Episode: What's so attractive about leadership?
