Nico Wohlgemuth on genuine self-leadership in the podcast "Radical Self-Leadership to go" by Thorsten Reitz

How do you lead yourself in a world full of pace, complexity and expectation? In the latest episode of "Radical Self-Leadership to go" with and by Thorsten Reitz, our founder and managing director Nico Wohlgemuth talks about how he keeps clarity as an entrepreneur and leader, sharpens priorities and directs his energy deliberately.

The conversation makes one thing very clear: self-leadership doesn't come from grand gamechangers, but from consistent, small decisions in everyday life. And that attitude shapes our work at DAYONE too.

Three thoughts from Nico:

  • The power of small wins: celebrating milestones builds confidence and keeps you on course – a principle we live by in our teams as well.
  • The calendar as a system of truth: time for what matters has to be reserved deliberately. Only what is in the calendar becomes real.
  • Working effectively rather than looking busy: two hours of focused work often create more value than a day full of meetings.

An open, honest conversation about what self-organisation really means – and why it is the basis for good leadership.
