Wellness Musketeers

Feb 19 2024 • 26 mins

Discover the unexpected wisdom of tango with Sharna Fabiano, an renowned tango artist and author, who speaks on the dance's profound reflection of life's social intricacies and leadership roles. Your episode host, Ketil Hviding, reflects on his journey through martial arts and tango and what the dance has taught him about the subtle art of leading and following, a dance of skills that extends far beyond the dance floor and into the very fabric of our daily lives. Sharna's words, drawn from her book, Lead and Follow, resonate as a testament to the essence of partnership, revealing how this art form is much more than steps and routines—it's a metaphor for community, connection, and the balance between giving and receiving in relationships.

As the episode evolves, we wade into the nuanced waters of workplace dynamics—a mirror to the lead-and-follow of tango. Touching on pay equity and organizational hierarchy, we challenge the status quo, asking tough questions about the true value of each role within a team. Ponder the essence of 'followership,' a concept too often overshadowed by traditional leadership narratives, but one that's indispensable in achieving harmony both in business and in social settings. The insights from this episode might just inspire you to observe the dance of leadership and followership in your own life, recognizing the intricate steps and turns that make up the choreography of effective collaboration and trust.
