S7:EP01: Provocative Questions for High Performers
A client of mine runs a multi-million-dollar business. She’s respected by everyone in her field, yet she once said to me, “I could do this with my eyes closed. I want something more.” And then she went on, “I’m not lonely, but I’m very alone.

Praveen coaches brilliant leaders in the tech world. But he feels like he is hiding. He feels like he's in a place of comfort as a coach. He feels that he's not really stepping up as a leader. I draw out a distinction that shifts everything for him, based on a 2,500 year old quote by Lao Tzu: "A leader is best when people barely know he exists, when his work is done, his aim fulfilled, they will say: we did it ourselves..."
