Ep 37: The New Definition of Inclusive Leadership: Leading with Impact with Caroline Baird
With Host Caroline Baird

Leadership is evolving.
The old model—where leaders hold all the power, control every decision, and push for results at any cost—is broken. Today’s most successful leaders don’t just manage—they inspire, empower, and create lasting impact. In this episode of Today's Balanced Leader, we explore the new definition of inclusive leadership and how to lead with impact.
What You'll Learn in This Episode.
🔹The 4 Pillars of High-Impact Leadership that every leader must master:
🔹Lead with Curiosity: Unlock new ideas and create a culture of learning
🔹Elevate Unheard Voices: Drive engagement and innovation by amplifying diverse perspectives
🔹Build a Culture of Shared Ownership: Empower your team to take accountability and lead with confidence
🔹Expand Your Inner Circle: Seek out fresh perspectives to eliminate blind spots and make better decisions
We'll provide Real-world examples from leaders at Salesforce, LinkedIn, Ford, PepsiCo, and more, and talk about how inclusive leadership isn’t just about diversity—it’s about business success
