Even the most experienced leaders have one thing in common: they’re not seeing the full picture. In this episode, psychologist, executive coach, and former CEO Martin Dubin joins FUTUREPROOF. to talk about the hidden habits and patterns that quietly derail careers and businesses.

Drawing from his new book Blindspotting, Martin reveals the six types of leadership blindspots, why your greatest strength might be your biggest liability, and how to stop projecting old patterns onto new problems. Whether you’re leading a Fortune 500 team or trying to level up personally, this conversation is about developing the awareness you didn’t know you needed.
