episode 6 - the word is crayon

In this sixth episode of ‘The Word is Leadership’ we once again find ourselves with a word starting with the letter C as our random word this week is crayon.

Emmanuel explores the concept of drawing with crayons as a metaphor for expressing one's true colours and personality in leadership and focuses on how we can draw our personal leadership brand with a crayon, showcasing authenticity and individuality. To structure the discussion, he uses the word ‘CRAYON’ as an acronym where each letter represents a key aspect of building a colourful leadership brand.

He goes on to illustrate how, for a leadership brand to resonate, it needs Consistency, Reliability, Ability, You, Originality and Network.

Whilst the use of the random word as an acronym is somewhat unconventional given the rules of the podcast, this episode prompts reflection on the authenticity, originality, and individuality in one's approach to leadership.
