In this episode of the 5 Leadership Questions podcast, Todd Adkins and Chandler Vannoy are joined by Jamie Ivey, podcaster and author of You Be You. They discuss learning from sources outside of your normal circle and working with contractors as opposed to full-time staff and bringing them into your business culture.
