The Technology of Success is based on the groundbreaking work of Susan Ford Collins who began her career as a young researcher at the National Institutes of Health (NIH). Susan had a radical idea: What more could we learn if we studied healthy, Highly Successful People, not just ill and dysfunctional ones? Are Highly Successful People using skills the rest of us are missing, or misusing? Join us for this enlightening conversation about redefining success!

Show Highlights:

  • You should take time each day to acknowledge  yourself
  • We are creatures of habit and we don’t really look at our strategies for success

  • Third gear is the point where you aren’t in charge anymore, so you have to trust others and get out of their way
