Being great at the work does notautomatically make someone great at leading it.
In this episode, Sarah sits down with Abby Cornelius, leadership trainer with Elevate Actually, to talk about the shift from high-performing individual contributor to effective leader.
After more than 20 years in homebuilding, moving from internto executive leadership, Abby saw the same pattern over and over: talented people being promoted because they were excellent at their jobs, then expected to lead without ever being taught how.
Together, Sarah and Abby unpack what changes when your role shifts from doing the work yourself to leading people, teams, and the business.
They explore the habits that keep leaders stuck in the weeds, the difference between helping and rescuing, how to create accountability without carrying everything yourself, and the leadership skills organizations often assume people already know.
