The Secret Life of Great Leaders
Also available on:
The Secret Life of Great Leaders explores the behaviours and inner disciplines that actually improve performance, accelerate learning, and create great workplaces.
Hosted by Michael Bunting, Founder of TripleGoal, this podcast goes beyond leadership theory to examine what truly drives measurable change: self-regulation, accountability, psychological safety, and values-based action.
Drawing on adult development, neuroscience, and over 30 years of leadership research, each episode unpacks what separates reactive leadership from transformational leadership—especially under pressure.
You’ll hear honest conversations with senior leaders and practitioners who have faced their blind spots, challenged their habits, and built cultures that deliver the Triple Goal of:
- Great Performance
- Great Learning
- Great Workplace
If you want your leadership to show up not just in intention, but in measurable outcomes, this podcast is for you.
