  • You Don't Wake Up as a Leader. So How Do You Get There? with special guest Carol Lempert
    Apr 29 2026

    Recorded live on LinkedIn, Joel sits down with keynote speaker, executive coach, and leadership consultant Carol Lempert, a Teaching Fellow at Florida International University who has spent years partnering with Fortune 500 companies to scale their leadership development programs.

    Carol challenges one of the biggest myths about career growth: 'Poof,' it doesn't happen overnight.

    "It's not a promotion event. Leadership really is a capability… something that needs to be built intentionally over time."

    In this episode:

    • Carol unpacks her three-part definition of leadership, "Use the greatness in you to bring out the greatness in others to achieve ambitious goals," and what it actually looks like in practice
    • How to run an anonymous brand audit to find out what people say about you when you're not in the room
    • How to talk about your wins without sounding like you're bragging
    • Why the best managers ask their team how they want to receive feedback before they ever give it
    • Carol's 'Reflection Friday' practice for collecting 52 weeks of receipts on the value you add

    We also took live questions from the LinkedIn audience about what it takes to build financial and strategic acumen and why that matters.

    If you do strong work but feel overlooked, want to break into management, or are leading already and trying to grow into a bigger seat, this one's for you.

    Carol Lempert is a keynote speaker, executive coach and leadership consultant who specializes in helpingpeople get ahead in their careers. Whether you are an individual contributor trying to break into your first management role, or a mid-level manager struggling to move from leading a small team to overseeing a large organization, Carol understands the specific skill shifts and strategiesrequired for those moves.

    Currently a Teaching Fellow at Florida International University, Carol has spent years partnering with Fortune 500 companies to scale their leadership development programs. Her expertise lies at the intersection of career management, leadership presence, and business storytelling.

    The next five years will be the most disruptive we’ve seen, according to the World Economic Forum.

    Our Special Guest: Chris March (former travel-industry COO), now a Global Leadership and Executive coach, brings a practical lens to what actually works when everything's in motion. We get into listening before rolling out the strategy, unlearning parts of the 'old playbook', and using AI to clear the busywork so you can focus on people.

    Chris distills the 5, no make that 6 skills leaders need to develop for the next stretch and ties them back to everyday behaviors.
