  • Why Most Leaders Fail (And It’s Not About Skill)
    Jul 23 2025

    Why do some of the smartest leaders still fall short? In this powerful episode, host Lee Benson sits down with Joe Davis, former Senior Partner and Chair of BCG North America, to uncover what really determines long-term leadership success. Spoiler: it’s not skill, intelligence, or experience.

    Drawing from his 35+ years at Boston Consulting Group and his new book The Generous Leader, Joe unpacks why generosity not authority is the most underrated force in high-performing teams. Together, they explore what it means to lead with purpose, how to develop others without ego, and why vulnerability at the top isn’t a weakness, it’s an advantage.

    This is a must-listen conversation for CEOs, team leaders, and anyone striving to lead with both impact and integrity.

    What You’ll Learn:

    - Why generous leadership drives better outcomes than command-and-control

    - The #1 reason most leaders fail (and don’t even realize it)

    - How to give tough feedback with care—and without apology

    - What makes consulting work actually work

    - How leaders can unlock the full potential of their teams

    - Why being human at work is now non-negotiable
