Episode Description

What if the leader who looks most successful on paper is quietly struggling the most?


In this episode, I sit down with T.G. Lim — Managing Director at Maccaferri Indonesia, with over 25 years of international leadership experience — who admits that even at the height of his early success, he was struggling as a leader.


What you'll take away:

→ Why "efficient" and "effective" leadership are not the same thing

→ Why a manager is a role, but a leader is an identity

→ Why he made no visible progress in his first two years of coaching

→ Why psychological safety explains why feedback gets vaguer as you rise

→ The three components he believes every organization needs to succeed


"I didn't make any progress for the first two years, despite the time and the money was spent." — T.G. Lim
