Managing yourself is the precondition for leading others effectively, and few people have studied that connection more rigorously than Margaret Andrews. On The Coaching Edge Podcast, hosts Dr. Steve Jeffs and Erwin de Grave spoke with Margaret, a Harvard instructor and author of Manage Yourself to Lead Others, about the self-awareness framework she has refined across nearly 20 years of teaching.
Margaret walks through four core questions she uses with leaders: who has shaped you, what do your core values look like, how aware are you of your emotions, and what feedback have you consistently received? She also shares why emotions require acknowledgment rather than suppression, how team charters become useful only when treated as ongoing conversations, and why protecting time for uninterrupted thought is one of the most underestimated leadership habits.
