| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Jasmine star show. Today we are talking about a lot of layers of leadership, |
| 0:19.0 | but perhaps from a different angle. I am very excited because Adam and Kelly are like |
| 0:25.0 | the ultimate duo. I have been stalking them. It's kind of like Batman and Robin. So let's |
| 0:30.9 | just hit the ground running. Adam is the founder and Haley serves as a chief of staff and they |
| 0:36.6 | help leaders today to become leaders of tomorrow. Now if you're anything like me and you're |
| 0:41.5 | wondering chief of staff, isn't that not a term that we hear on West Wing? I didn't even |

| 1:30.8 | is my ambition. So let's start crafting this terminology of chief of staff. |
| 1:35.1 | Sure. Sure. So I started my career as an executive assistant and that's kind of how |
| 1:40.5 | my journey went from an executive assistant to a chief of staff. We talk about it in terms |
| 1:45.6 | of the sports multiplier very often because sometimes titles get a little tricky. Like |
| 1:50.8 | my version of a chief of staff may actually operate as an executive assistant in another |
| 1:54.6 | company. And someone's executive assistant may actually operate as, you know, a deputy |
