About

MEMBERS ONLY | A 90-minute salon with Alex Lustberg, portal member and founder of Axis Leadership, on the leader underneath the leadership - who you actually are when you lead, what you’re leading toward in the first place, and why. How we lead is rarely a choice. It’s a composite - of the leaders we’ve watched, the versions of authority that got rewarded, and the quiet pressure of what we think is expected of us. Often none of it matches who we actually are. You can lead from there - most people do - but there’s a low hum of strain underneath it, and the people around you hear it too. Leading from what is actually yours brings human resonance to the organization, the self, and the purpose of collective action. How you lead shapes who you are the rest of the time. Who you are the rest of the time shapes how you lead. They aren’t separable. In a moment when AI is reaching further into every aspect of work, what's left to leaders is the part that can't be automated: judgment, consequence, and the human weight of the call. People still follow people. The question is whether the one they’re following is actually you. An open conversation for anyone thinking seriously about how they lead, how they’re led, and who they are when they do either. Bring a snack or your favorite potion (some will be on hand).
