## Resource

UEG Podcast is on summer holiday and re-releases published episodes that we think deserve another listen. Enjoy! In this episode, host Egle speaks with former UEG President Axel Dignass about what it takes to lead in times of crisis. Drawing on his experience during the COVID-19 pandemic, Axel reflects on the difference between being a boss and being a true leader. He shares thoughts on the value of empathy, transparency, and consistency, as well as how to build and sustain a resilient team. The conversation also touches on the challenges of going virtual, the importance of recognising team achievements, and the warning signs of toxic leadership. A must-listen for anyone looking to grow as a leader in uncertain times.
