Architects often struggle with balancing leadership while managing their practice, where creative vision, profit, and team dynamics can clash. Many find themselves overwhelmed, stressed, and stuck in a cycle of decisions, unable to move beyond being the central figure in their business.

In this episode of the Business of Architecture podcast, Rion Willard dives deep into an often overlooked aspect of leadership that many mistake as being weak. He challenges common perceptions and offers a new way to think about leading with purpose, rather than letting profit or ego take control. Along the way, Rion introduces ideas from spiritual traditions that can help shift your approach to business leadership.

• What is the one thing Rion says should take priority over profit in your business?
• Why does he believe most businesses unknowingly sabotage themselves?
• Discover the surprising truth behind "ruthless compassion" and how it can strengthen your leadership.
• Learn how an ancient leadership model could transform your team's success.
