Leadership Secrets They Don't Teach You | The Leadership Toolkit

This week on The Leadership Toolkit, host Mike Phillips joins with some amazing leadership content creators, Mike Ashie and Jim Burgoon to deliver one of the most powerful leadership episodes yet:
💡 Leadership Secrets They Don't Teach: Leading When No One’s Watching.

We talk a lot about leadership in the spotlight — but what about when no one’s there to clap, record, or recognize you?
That’s where real leaders are forged.

👉 In this episode, the panel breaks down:
1️⃣ The Power of Invisible Leadership: why private integrity fuels public impact.
2️⃣ Consistency vs. Intensity: the habits that outlast hype.
3️⃣ How to have Courageous Conversations without crushing morale.
4️⃣ Staying steady through uncertainty when your team needs calm.
5️⃣ Building a Legacy of Leadership one decision at a time.

🔥 Expect practical tools. Real talk. No fluff.
💬 Challenge of the week: Ask yourself daily, "Who did I serve today and how?" And write your answers down.
