This is the Read to Lead podcast, episode 413.

Next time your sense of training or being told, we got you a coach or whatever, look at it at a privilege as opposed to an obligation and say, hey, I get to do this

because this is going to help me develop and become a better version of myself, both personally and

professionals. If a picture is worth a thousand words and finding the right words takes time

and time is money, then wouldn't it follow that business leaders could make more money in less

time if they simply took a more visual approach to how they manage

and lead. Welcome to the Read to Lead podcast. I'm Jeff Brown and this is the podcast dedicated

to your personal and professional growth where I believe that if you want to achieve true success

in business and in life, an intentional and consistent reading is a must. With each new episode,

I hope to narrow your reading list so you know what to pay attention to and what not to pay attention to and bring you key insights and valuable ideas from some of today's most successful and inspiring authors and their books.

Today we'll be meeting with Todd Churches, author of Visual Leadership, Leveraging the Power of Visual Thinking in Leadership and in Life.

I'll be asking Todd about his unique response to horrible leaders from the past, using

visual models, metaphors, and stories for more effective leadership, the impact of

visual leadership on the future of work,

and much, much more. Well, I just returned over the weekend from another productive and

successful workshop, and I got to tell you, I'm enjoying doing these more and more, both workshops

and public speaking. And as I've said before, if you're looking for personal and professional development training for your team,

I'd love to join you in that endeavor.
