Anne Dranitsaris, Ph.D and Heather Dranitsaris-Hilliard are a mother-daughter team with an incredible backstory and a refreshing approach to leadership that blends psychology with systems to advance the potential of individuals, teams and organisations. Together they have co-authored three books, most recently So, You Think You Can Lead?

Anne and Heather’s relationship is unique (you’ll have to listen to find out why!) and makes their professional collaboration even more remarkable. The synergy of Anne’s developmental psychology background and Heather’s systems thinking and transformation expertise enables them to help executives - and especially emerging and entrepreneurial leaders - do and be better. In this episode they share the bad habits even good leaders can fall into, shine a light on  a fundamental leadership principle for the hybrid world, remind us that leaders cannot, and should not, be all things to all people and, perhaps most importantly, that there’s no leadership without followership.
