Summary
In this episode of The Workplace Podcast, William Corless speaks with Muriel M. Wilkins, executive coach, author of Leadership Unblocked: Break Through the Beliefs That Limit Your Potential, and host of the Harvard Business Review podcast Coaching Real Leaders. Muriel helps leaders understand why performance challenges so often stem from unexamined beliefs rather than skill gaps. She explains how “hidden blockers” shape leadership behaviour, why high performers resist looking inward, and how resolving conflict with yourself is a prerequisite for leading others effectively. This episode explores: The beliefs that quietly limit leadership potential Why behaviour change starts with assumptions, not actions How leaders can begin coaching themselves more effectively What it really takes to grow beyond control, perfectionism, and over-functioning A practical and reflective conversation for leaders, managers, coaches, and anyone serious about leadership development.
