Helping Young Men Become Successful Leaders – Daron Franklin on The Leader’s Mindset Podcast

Описание: Helping Young Men Become Successful Leaders – Daron Franklin on The Leader’s Mindset Podcast

Young men are facing a crisis of confidence, identity, and direction — and it’s showing up everywhere: in the workplace, in schools, in families, and across our communities.

In this episode of The Leader’s Mindset, Jason LeDuc sits down with Daron Franklin, performance coach, former educator, and founder of F42, for a deeply human conversation about character development, leadership, mentorship, and what young men actually need right now to succeed.

This isn’t a surface-level discussion.

Daron draws from decades of experience as a coach, teacher, and mentor working with young men and women across multiple generations. He breaks down why today’s environment — shaped by social media, constant comparison, and fear of failure — has fundamentally changed how confidence is built and lost.

Together, Jason and Daron explore:

• Why character development matters more than talent
• How small wins create real confidence over time
• Why young professionals struggle to ask for — or accept — help
• The role leaders play in shaping culture, trust, and belonging
• What organizations get wrong about performance, metrics, and growth
• How mentorship must evolve for today’s multi-generational workforce
• Why fear of failure is holding people back at every level

This conversation is especially relevant for:

✔ Corporate executives and senior leaders
✔ HR professionals and training managers
✔ People managers leading younger teams
✔ Startup founders building culture from scratch
✔ Coaches, educators, and mentors working with emerging talent

Daron also shares practical frameworks he uses with individuals and organizations — from building trust through intentional conversations, to helping people prioritize time, develop confidence, and see progress as a lifelong process.

If you’re responsible for developing people — or if you’re trying to grow as a leader yourself — this episode will challenge how you think about leadership, performance, and what it really takes to help others succeed.
