How do you know when to wear which hat?
2. Be aware that you have a propensity to overvalue people with your temperament.
How can leaders find people that align with and complement them?
3. Predictable excellence costs more time, energy, and money than most are willing to pay.
What are some areas where leaders tend to shortcut or put a lid on excellence?
What if you don’t have the margins to pursue excellence?
4. You’re always at risk of being a weed whacker or a helium-filled balloon.
How can visionary leaders think about giving effective feedback?
5. If your vision for your business is grander than your vision for your life, your vision will become your life.
Worry less about making mistakes and more about learning from them so you don’t repeat them.
