Hello and welcome to Franklin Covey's weekly on leadership series. My name is Scott Miller and I have the honor each week of serving as your host where my

main role here is to really help to curate people we think you'll find interesting

that will add value to your life personally and professionally, read their books, research

their point of view, and then bring them on set live in some cases or live virtual in most

cases and today our guest is gosh about a 15 year friend of mine Chester Elton

he's the co-author of numerous best-selling books, including this most recent book, The Best Teams

Win, The Science of High Performance, Chester Elton.

Welcome to Franklin Covey's on leadership.

Thanks so much, Scott.

Always a delight to be with you.

Chester, I think having you and I in the same set physically

would be like probably wrong because our energy is so high.

So we only asked you to come via video

because the set can't probably contain both your and my energy.

I think you're right.

You know, I think we want to avoid that spontaneous combustion thing.

They could very well happen. Chester, you and I have been friends for. want to avoid that spontaneous combustion thing.

Chester, you and I have been friends for, like I said, almost 15 years.

Ironically, you and I both presented at a conference in Beijing, China, back in early 2000s.

In fact, I've learned a lesson.

You always want to go before Chester

because the audience will forget you
