Thank you to those that joined us for the Straight-Line Leadership: Revealing the greatest growth secret session we hosted with Carter McNabb from Extraordinary Human, we hope you gained valuable information from the session.
We’d like to thank Carter for delivering an insightful and thought-provoking session shining light on aspects of leadership that are not always discussed.
Event Recap and Key Takeaways
This session challenged conventional thinking around leadership and introduced two powerful frameworks designed to unlock growth at every level:
-
Relational Leadership – Leading the whole human, not just what’s visible. By understanding behaviours, beliefs, values, and motivations, leaders can create deeper trust and stronger alignment.
-
Straight-Line Leadership – Removing the patterns that derail progress. By recognising and dissolving defensiveness and avoidance, leaders can shift from reactive to responsive, creating a clearer, more effective path to growth.
A key focus throughout the session was recognising the internal narratives that often sit beneath performance, feelings of being incompetent, inadequate, or incapable and how these can quietly drive behaviour, decision-making, and team dynamics if left unaddressed.
A key reflection to carry forward:
Where might reactivity or avoidance be subtly shaping your decisions, and what could shift if you responded instead?
