#555 The Leadership Heartset - Marc Inzelstein interviewed by Niels Brabandt (Episode 3 of 4)


Everyone talks about mindset. In the third episode of a four-part leadership series, host Niels Brabandt and executive coach and author Marc Inzelstein (Essential Leadership) make the business case for its under-discussed counterpart: the heartset, and the science of emotional coherence.

Marc Inzelstein explains why the heart emits a measurable electrical signal that colleagues sense before a leader says a word, why leadership is best understood as a transmission of state, and why the documented pathway between heart and brain means emotionally coherent leaders make better decisions, not softer ones. Niels Brabandt challenges Inzelstein with the reality many senior leaders describe privately: KPI-obsessed cultures that treat the human side of leadership as a distraction from the numbers, and the two discuss what needs to change in executive education as a result.

This episode is part of a four-part conversation between Niels Brabandt and Marc Inzelstein on modern leadership, following leadership in the age of AI and why executive teams underperform, and continuing with hope as a leadership practice.
