The Coach Approach Ministries Podcast

Brian and Chad talk about a model called the Leadership Energy Matrix. Chad originally learned about this model from Scott Eblin, Chad's first coach. The matrix is built from two axis. The first is around whether your leadership energy is positive or negative. The second is whether your leadership energy is high or low. One might think that the best combination would be high-positive energy. However, the matrix shows that all four combinations are useful in their appropriate moments.
