In this episode of Deep Leadership, I sit down with Dr. Peter James, President and CEO of HCG Strategic Partners, to unpack one of the most common (and costly) mistakes organizations make: promoting great individual contributors into leadership roles without preparing them to lead. Peter brings a rare perspective shaped by leadership in the military, corporate America, and higher education. Together, we break down why being great at your job doesn’t automatically make you a great leader—and what actually does. We dive into: Why top performers often struggle when they step into leadership The critical role of self-awareness in leading others Why most leaders don’t realize they’re failing The importance of having someone who will hold you accountable How organizations can better prepare people for leadership roles What it takes to build a culture that can adapt and thrive in constant change If you’ve ever been promoted (or are about to be), this conversation will challenge how you think about leadership—and give you practical ways to get better.
