The Three People Every Good Leader Needs - a podcast by LCI Academy

Who speaks truth to your brain, heart, and soul? Who tells you when you’re wrong? If no one comes to mind, you’re in dangerous territory. 

Leaders can’t live or lead alone. We believe leaders like us need three kinds of people in our lives. 

1. Someone above us.  



2. Someone beside us. 



3. Someone below us (this is about investing in others, not flexing power). 

We’re diving deep into each of these three critical roles so you can identify the key relationships in your life and the ones you need to seek out. Grab a pad of paper, take notes, and let us know how these types of people have contributed to your leadership story.
