Everything hinges on leadership. It’s the difference between life and death, success and failure, and whether we thrive or have problems that keep us stuck. In fact, it's the most important role in humanity.
This is especially true as dads and business owners. We have to lead our families. Our teams. And everyone we can influence in some way.
But leadership’s hard. It’s one of the toughest “skills” to learn. Especially if you’re not a natural leader.
That’s why I invited Dr. Nate Salah, a doctor of leadership on today’s show. Despite being a doctor of leadership, he never considered himself a natural leader. And it wasn’t until he found a mentor that he honed his leadership skills.
In this episode, you’ll discover how to become a better leader (even if you’re not a natural leader), why leadership is the most important role in humanity, and how becoming a better leader unlocks more business growth than anything else you can do.
