In this episode, Bhoomi Pathak and Danny Iny get candid about their contrasting leadership styles and how they have changed over the years. Despite their different approach, they both agree that leadership should be intentional and focused on growth.

Welcome to To Lead Is Human. This show helps listeners envision how they can uplevel their leadership and shape cultures of accountability, respect, and candor.

Danny Iny is the founder and CEO of Mirasee and leads the company with his wife, Bhoomi Pathak, who serves as their COO. Mirasee focuses on helping expert entrepreneurs create sustainable, profitable businesses that educate others and create positive impacts.

“You’re showing up and working on things that you should be working on, but you’re taking advantage of the full person… and leveraging on that strength… What makes me a great mom sometimes also helps me be a good leader… So why would I cut off that part of myself?”

Bhoomi Pathak

“A teacher’s job is to see what someone is capable of even and especially if they don’t see it yet themselves, and then inspire them to direct their attention in the most fruitful way. I lead well, because I lead like a teacher.”

Danny Iny
