E26 Strengthening Relationships: 7 Ways Leaders Lose
Tales of Leadership
03/20/23 • 17 min
In Episode 26, I outline 7 ways leaders can lose at the third phase of leadership, Strengthening Relationships. Phase 3 is the decisive point in your leadership journey. If you win at this phase, you become a transformational leader. However, if you fail to build meaningful relationships, you will not progress on the leadership journey and will fall into transitional habits.
Preview:
Fear Of Others: "You need to understand no matter what you do, situations will arise where others will take advantage. However, this is the minority and comes a distant second to the countless other team members you will help and develop lifelong connections with. In those rare moments where people take advantage of you, hold them accountable and discipline them.”

William "Bill" Leahy, founder of Renaissance Reliability (RR), is a visionary leader on a mission to elevate American manufacturing to global heights by championing innovation, reliability, and manufacturing effectiveness. In the aftermath of his brother's tragic suicide, a USMC Infantry officer, in December 2022, Bill turned personal grief into a commitment to combat veteran suicide. This led to the establishment of UNTURNING STEEL, aimed at bringing veterans and manufacturing together. The convergence of these missions has birthed a collective goal – "Reimagining what it means to be MADE IN AMERICA." Bill's dedication earned UNTURNING STEEL the prestigious 2024 “Best Cultural Innovation Award” from the University of Tennessee – Knoxville (UTK) and Everything Reliability. Bill has excelled in various roles in his manufacturing career, demonstrating expertise in Root Cause Analysis (RCA), Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM), and other continuous improvement methodologies. A former US Army Captain, Bill's leadership journey began at the United States Military Academy, where he was an NCAA Division 1 Army West Point hockey player. His academic accomplishments include a BS from West Point, an MBA from the University of North Carolina - Chapel Hill, and a Reliability & Maintainability Implementation Certification (RMIC) from the University of Tennessee. Bill, residing in Southeastern New England, is dedicated to his family and contributes to the community as a Thames Club member and volunteers as a hockey and soccer coach for local colleges and youth sports organizations.
