Coaching a 30-Year Innovation Leader Missing Feedback on His Ideas | Malcolm De Leo | Ep 1076

From Outlier's Edge Podcast with Niiamah Ashong Niiamah Ashong

"Create the space and then invite the leaders." - Niiamah

Join Niiamah (@niiamahashong) and Malcolm De Leo for a live coaching conversation. Malcolm's challenge: he's been writing his best thinking on a website nobody goes to, and nothing comes back.

You'll walk away with:

Why publishing your ideas is not the same as getting them tested
The question that turns "is this useful" into "how do I make use of this"
Why leaving your words undefined brings confused people into your world

Welcome to the Outlier's Edge Podcast, hosted by Niiamah Ashong, Founder of Outlier's Edge and Sherpa of the World of Difference. On this podcast, you'll join other high-performing unconventional leaders and entrepreneurs (aka Outliers) as they talk about leveraging what makes them different to make a difference in the world.
