Energy is the most powerful currency a leader possesses, with the ability to transform organizations and build movements that change lives. Ty Cobb-Backer revisits the profound impact of John Gordon's "The Energy Bus" and breaks down the 10 rules that have shaped his leadership philosophy and earned him the title of "Chief Energy Officer."
• You're the driver of your bus. Take ownership of your life, leadership and energy
• Desire, vision and focus move your bus in the right direction. Obsess over your goals
• Fuel your ride with positive energy. You either uplift your team or drain them
• Invite people on your bus and share your vision & articulate direction clearly
• Don't waste energy on those who don't get on your bus. Remove negative influences
• Post a sign that says "no energy vampires allowed". Protect your team's energy
• Enthusiasm attracts more passengers and energizes them. Positive energy is contagious
• Love your passengers. People go the extra mile when they feel valued
• Drive with purpose. Purpose-driven leadership outlasts money-driven goals
• Have fun and enjoy the ride! Energy comes from joy, don't take yourself too seriously
Share this episode with somebody on your bus and keep your energy high, your vision clear, and your crew rolling in the same direction.
