Summary
Once in awhile, someone says something cool that we take throughout our lives to help us lead. On this episode, wise words that can help you influence better. I share four stories that will help you lead more effectively.
First story
- Take small bits of wisdom from others and then, over time, make it your own.
Second story
- Be humble enough to realize what you don’t know and get advice from the experts.
Third story
- When you or others have missed a feedback opportunity, acknowledge it and move forward the correct way.
Fourth story
- Be willing to change directions for a few minutes to make someone’s day.
