Joy shares her journey into leadership and how her research revealed a powerful pattern: nearly every leader can point to a moment when someone saw their potential before they did. The conversation dives into: The importance of intentionally building a leadership pipeline Why performance alone isn’t enough to identify future leaders The reality of the “messy middle” and how leaders grow through it The role of reflection in leadership development—and why most leaders skip it How to give emerging leaders space to practice, fail, and grow Joy also introduces her TAP framework : Trust – The foundation of leadership that must be earned daily Authenticity – Knowing who you are as a leader and showing up with confidence Performance – The skills and execution that can be developed over time One of the biggest takeaways? A pat on the back might feel good—but a tap on the shoulder can change someone’s life. This episode is a powerful reminder that leadership development isn’t accidental—it’s intentional.
