Performance Intelligence Podcast

Andrew May breaks down one of the most overlooked yet critical factors of modern leadership: Leadership Capacity.

Forget the outdated grind culture - today’s best leaders know it’s not just about pushing harder, it’s about expanding your internal capacity so you can lead with energy, clarity, and resilience — even under pressure.

Andrew shares where the concept of leadership capacity comes from, how he’s seen it transform high performers, and why building a bigger “capacity vessel” is the antidote to burnout and fatigue. Plus, real-world examples from coaching leaders who’ve learned how to stretch their limits sustainably.

Taken from full episode #133.
