I encourage YOU to employ what I call "Harmonic Leadership," which is a really evocative name. Let's explore the core philosophy behind that title and what it means to lead harmonically?

This is a concept I chose very intentionally. For too long, we’ve associated leadership with a single, loud voice—a soloist. But the most successful, innovative, and resilient teams don't operate like a solo act; they operate like a symphony or a great jazz ensemble.

Harmonic Leadership is built on a simple but profound idea: a leader's primary role is not to be the best player, but to create an environment where every musician (person) can play their best, together. It’s not about everyone hitting the same note—that's unison, not harmony. Harmony is when different, diverse notes combine to create a sound that's richer and more beautiful than any single note (person) could be on its own.

So, to lead harmonically means you are focused on tuning the team. You’re listening to the dynamics, blending diverse strengths, and ensuring that everyone, from the formal leader to the newest team member, feels empowered to contribute their unique notes (strengths) to the collective song (vision). It's leadership that creates unity, not through conformity, but through connection.
