bikecircles.jpg

Dr. Fred speaks with Sharna Fabiano on today’s show. Sharna is an internationally recognized tango artist, certified coach, and author of Lead & Follow: The Dance of Inspired Teamwork. She brings a deep understanding of the leader/follower dynamic from social dance into the professional sphere to help individuals and teams collaborate more successfully. 

Today’s eclectic conversation delves into the following areas:

  • Dance as a source of social values and manufacturer of cultural content

  • Looking at tango beyond dance—as an idea / philosophy

  • Our bias toward valuing leadership over followership

  • Reclaiming the necessary and creative impact of the follower role

  • Leading and following...simultaneously

  • How to embrace a chore you may not particularly enjoy (like washing dishes)

  • Going beyond preferences of alike/dislike and agree/disagree

  • The paradox of improvisation

  • Social dynamics of choosing a dance partner
