myAIPMWhat can Ted Lasso teach you about leadership?
Galich Feinreich | Fortune
Apple TV’s show ‘Ted Lasso’ has become a huge hit across the world, following the fortunes of the eponymous high school coach and his transition to coaching of a premier league football team in South West London. Ted is a beacon of kindness in a world of darkness. His compassion, kindness, and human-centered leadership philosophy have caught the attention of leadership commentators, like Feinreich, and there are undoubtedly leadership lessons for us all. Whether it is the power of optimistic work colleagues, the importance of listening and protecting quiet voices, or being demonstrably useful by dealing with immediate pain points, Feinreich’s assessment is a great insight into what matters in compassionate leadership, and a useful primer for the show. But its no substitute to bingeing both seasons and drawing your own conclusions as soon as you can.
