Let’s say you want to get into leadership...where do you start? On today’s show, how to start leading if you haven’t done it before. I begin with a question from a #CFLshow community member and detail four practical ways that you can get into leadership for the first time.

Listener question from Scott

Leadership = vision, communication, motivation

Follow someone for awhile

Solve a problem in the workplace
