The 90th Percentile: An Unconventional Leadership Podcast
Published: June 20, 2023
Kevin Wilde, author of Coachability: The Leadership Superpower, joins us to discuss the research on coachability. During his time as CLO at Fortune 500 companies, he saw a lot of career derailment and wanted to understand WHY and HOW it could happen to even the best leaders. His book was originally going to be about career derailment. But he realized that’s just reporting on the accident. He wanted to show leaders how to avoid the accident, and the answer was really quite simple: coachability.
