Quotes from the Episode:
“Something has to feed us on a regular basis to keep us in check so we coach from a standpoint of coach and coachee.” [00:03:38]
“If you don’t have the ability to have full ownership, you don’t set out on that journey, it’s very unlikely you’re going to be rising up as a leader.” [00:06:01]
“When you have multiple people all in a role of decision making and no one has truly made a decision, blame is just around the corner.” [00:12:04]
“Go out there and correct whatever you’re failing at and find the leadership that’s actually going to help support a growth path through whatever those failures are.” [00:14:44]
“Read stuff that is truly in your lane...focus on where your career path is, only. Don’t waste time in another space.” [00:24:57]
