About the podcast
What is Leadership Sound Bites?
A short-form podcast from Michele Smith, MHA, PCC, for leaders who have ten minutes rather than an hour. Each episode takes one situation a leader actually faces and talks through how to think about it, so you can use the idea the same day.
Who is it for?
CEOs, owners and senior leaders, and anyone stepping into leading people for the first time. The episodes assume you are busy and that the hard part is usually the conversation, not the strategy.
Where can I listen?
Episodes play right here on this page, and the full channel is linked from each one so you can follow it wherever you usually listen.
How often do new episodes come out?
New episodes are added as Michele records them, in between client work. The newest one is always at the top of this page.
Can Michele speak to my team or event?
Yes. The same material is delivered as talks and working sessions for leadership teams and conferences. The speaking page sets out the topics and how a session runs, and every engagement is scoped after a free 20-minute discovery call.
How is this different from coaching?
The podcast is one-way: ideas you can borrow. Coaching is your situation, your people and your decisions, in a private session where the thinking is about you rather than about leadership in general.
