    Episode #59: Finding Clarity in the Chaos Through Courageous Conversations and Taking a Pause
    2025/08/21
    Defining moments in leadership often emerge in a request made with care, a question that steadies a team, or the space a leader creates to reflect before reacting. In this episode of Missing Conversations, hosts and Altus executive coaches, Dan Winter, Elayna Alexandra, and Ellen Burton, explore how leaders can anchor purpose, ask better questions, and create the conditions for their teams to rise. Drawing on decades of experience guiding leaders through disruption, they share how to make requests that build trust, lean on your team when the answers aren’t obvious, and use reflection to open up possibilities, create better ideas, and figure out the next best action to take. Key Moments You’ll Want to Hear 01:49: What a complete request really looks like, and how it sets you and your team up for success. 05:27: Why alignment without a timeline falls short—and how to close the loop. 06:52: Remembering the network of performers every request relies on. 07:15: The pause before “go”: questions to ask so people are set up for success. 08:46: Leading through sudden change by asking, “For the sake of what?” 11:21: How to talk with the C-suite in ways that invite listening and partnership. 12:34: Seeing change not as disruption, but as the heartbeat of a living organization. 15:37: Supporting moods and wellbeing so your people can keep doing good work. 19:20: Shaping the conversation with your board, and drawing out wisdom you might otherwise miss. 21:43: Practicing self-reflection in change: knowing your patterns and naming them. 23:19: Leaning into the strengths of your team when the answers aren’t obvious. 26:17: Navigating uncertainty step by step, instead of freezing in endless replanning. 27:21: Creating focus time that helps leaders move from reaction to clarity. 29:26: Why possibilities often appear when you finally sit still. 31:47: Building reflection into the rhythm of leadership so decisions come with care. 34:45: Being part of the team, not apart from it. Testing intuition and learning together. It's through that pause that we can gain clarity from the chaos. ~ Elayna Alexandra 🎧 If you’re leading through change and want to strengthen trust, foster resilience, and unlock your team’s potential, press play and step into this conversation.

  • Episode #57: Leading as Human: How Small Shifts Spark Real Transformation

    Episode #57: Leading as Human: How Small Shifts Spark Real Transformation
    2025/08/07
    When leaders show up human—curious, present, and willing to listen—teams grow, trust deepens, and the real work of transformation begins. Sharon Richmond, executive coach and Altus principal, shares how a lifelong care for community, agency, and voice has shaped her leadership—and what led her to join a team that actively practices what it teaches. In conversation with Altus partners, Amy Vodarek and Dan Winter, Sharon explores how leaders become stronger by staying curious, open to learning, and grounded in their own humanness. Through real-life stories—from truth-telling in preschool to transformative client breakthroughs—she reveals the power of subtle shifts: how we listen, how we navigate conflict, how we make requests and keep promises. Sharon shows how small, intentional moves can reshape how teams relate, learn, and co-create together. Key Moments You’ll Want to Hear: 01:55: What if your people left work energized for life beyond the job? 07:20: The untapped power of recognizing the stories you and your team are living in. 09:09: How a Nike exec made one small change, improving the relationship with her team. 12:21: Where senior leaders get stuck, and what opens the way forward. 14:43: Calm. Capable. Curious. A mantra to embody your executive presence. 16:31: Listen to fix… or listen to learn? Why leaders need both. 18:00: Redefine your role again and again. That’s leadership at scale. 19:45: Leading as human means caring for your own humanness, too. 22:34: A simple meeting shift that transformed a team’s performance and future. 26:32: Why Sharon said yes to Altus, and what makes the team stand out. 32:49: How addressing missing conversations unlocks alignment, innovation, and momentum. 34:50: A real-time disagreement became a lesson in navigating conflict well. 38:18: How leadership practices like making effective offers, promises, and clear commitments are transforming Sharon’s family life and how they can reshape yours, too. 42:16: Sharon’s big “Aha!”: Letting go of the script to meet clients where they are. 48:28: Want to change your culture? Think like a gardener. To lead as human means we have to be humans and take care of our humanness. 🎧 Listen in if you’re ready to lead with more presence, co-create with your team, and build a culture where people grow, stay curious, and still have something left at the end of the day. About Sharon Richmond Sharon Richmond, executive coach and a principal at Altus Growth Partners, helps executives envision and build successful, healthy companies fueled by cultures of accountability and mutual respect. She brings simple, practical frameworks to help clients surface what they, their teams, and their organizations must do to win: to have better conversations, make better decisions, and get better results.
