Should a leader be prepared to do everything? ('Shift your perspective' series #3) (Ep. 21)

Juliet and Lucy's Quiet Leadership Revolution

Being a leader doesn’t mean you need to do everything – but should you be prepared to? In this episode of the Quiet Leadership Revolution podcast, Lucy Gower and Juliet Corbett unpack the delicate balance between stepping in when needed and knowing when to step back.

We explore how effective leaders model strategic decision-making, showing their teams how to prioritise and focus on what truly matters. We also discuss the power of delegation, not just as a tool for managing workload, but as a way to build trust and empower others.

From the concept of ‘umbrella leadership’ – protecting your team from distractions while ensuring they grow – to the practical application of ‘Yes, if’ for negotiating boundaries, this episode is packed with insights to help you lead with clarity and purpose.
