Summary

This week it was my privilege to speak with Kasia Wezowski about body language, leadership, and communication. Kasia, along with her husband Patryk Wezowski, are founders of The Center for Body Language, the world's number one body language training company for business people. In this conversation Kasia guides us through her new book, Language That Leads: Communication Strategies that Inspire and Engage a compelling and insightful book that combines her cutting-edge research with Marshall Goldsmith’s leadership development methodology into a practical and timely resource for leaders to bring out the best in each team member. Wezowski breaks down the ten core qualities of leadership, providing easy-to-follow implementation steps to express, observe and project these qualities effectively through verbal and nonverbal communication. In this episode, Kasia dives deep into the importance of trust in leadership and how it can transform your team's performance. Recognizing the value of trusting employees to manage their time and work responsibilities while discussing how this approach boosts overall results. Drawing interesting parallels between leadership and parenting, Kasia also shares how giving individuals space and autonomy can lead to enhanced productivity, creativity, and engagement. This episode also highlights the leadership style of former Ford CEO, Alan Mulally, who prioritized connecting others with skills rather than trying to possess all the expertise himself. Kasia uses Mulally’s leadership style to stress the vital role of effective communication in leadership and the importance of creating a supportive environment where everyone can share their opinions. In conclusion, understanding body language and emotional cues is also addressed as a valuable tool for any leader seeking to cultivate well-being and engagement within their team.
