Are You An Overfunctioning Leader? with Stephanie Theisen
<p>Welcome back, friends! In this episode of the Grounding and Growing Leadership Podcast, Tara is joined by co-host and ALIGN’s Chief Strategy Officer, Stephanie Theisen, to explore a leadership challenge many high achievers don’t realize they’re facing: overfunctioning. Together, they unpack four common overfunctioning leadership patterns; micromanaging, firefighting, hypervigilance, and rescuing, and discuss how these behaviors, often rooted in good intentions, can unintentionally limit team growth and create dependency. </p><p>Drawing from Stephanie’s own leadership journey, the conversation offers practical insights for recognizing when control is getting in the way of sustainable momentum. Tara and Stephanie share strategies for building healthier leadership habits, empowering team members, and having the accountability conversations leaders often avoid. Plus, listeners can access the Over-Functioning Leader Self-Assessment to reflect on their own leadership tendencies and identify opportunities for growth. </p><p>Registration for our next <a href="https://aligntransform.com/grounded-leadership-program/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><u>Grounded Leadership</u></a> cohort is now open! </p><p>Registration for our next <a href="https://aligntransform.com/growth-focused-leadership/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><u>Growth-Focused Leader</u></a> cohort is now open! </p><p>Registration for our new <a href="https://forms.office.com/Pages/ResponsePage.aspx?id=jca_3FibtEqwk7IUe0XAJW6m74KA3CdBg97EI6vtxrBUQlZJSVBEVTFPV0ZUUEVBMjVQU0pZTU9UUi4u" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><u>Managers Essentials Course</u></a> is now open! </p><p>At the Grounding and Growing Leadership podcast, we believe everyone is a leader and that leadership starts with you.
