Description
In this special throwback episode, Dr. Monica “mOe” Anderson shares a keynote originally delivered to leaders in Austin, Texas. She challenges traditional leadership models that focus on tenure, influence, and authority, and introduces a missing element: the fourth dimension of leadership—service. She explains how service creates authentic connection, strengthens community, and generates a cycle of support that sustains leaders over time and diminishes the chances of burnout.
Dr. mOe has led high-performing teams in private practice, healthcare systems, and corporate environments. Her leadership philosophy is grounded not only in theory, but in lived experience—building teams, navigating transitions, and leading through personal and professional adversity.
