We're diving into a special topic,  that’s familiar to all of us and that’s a year in review, a year in reflection if you will. A year is a long time, 12 months, 365 days, or 8,760 hours. Think about that for a second… Time. We can manage it while we have it but when it’s gone, it’s gone. When the time passes after the recording of this podcast, it will never come back. What did you do with your time in 2024? Was it productive? Was it fruitful? That’s why I wanted to sit today and record and episode that I connect with pretty much anyone on. I have four segments that will follow that will allow us to break down 2024 and having us look forward towards 2025. Walk with me down this journey, won’t you?

In today's episode, we're diving deep into a leadership topic many ask me about, the difference between a leader and a supervisor. I've also heard this as a leader versus a boss. Oh, you can bet there is a difference, and those who can't see the difference probably don't have a great rapport with their team or organization. I want to pick this one apart because there is a time to use both, and if you can master when to use both, you'll be a leader who can earn your organization's trust and respect.
