In this powerful conversation on Your Partner In Success Radio with host Denise Griffitts, Lewis Senior and Mark Wilkinson, co-authors of Surrounded by Potential: Personalities Remixed, challenge the way we think about personality, performance, and leadership.

Instead of boxing people into labels, they invite us to see something far more useful: untapped capacity.

We explore what personality frameworks get right, where leaders misuse them, and how misunderstanding behavior can quietly undermine teams, partnerships, and business growth. The authors unpack how self-awareness fuels better communication, smarter hiring, stronger culture, and ultimately higher performance.

This is not about typing people. It’s about unlocking them.

If you’ve ever felt frustrated by “difficult” personalities, misunderstood on your own team, or limited by the way people see you, this conversation will shift how you think about human potential.
