  • Inspiration - One of Four Leader Prerequisites

    "Send me a text message and let me know what you think of the First-Time Leaders Accelerated℠ Podcast."

    If the leader candidate is lacking one or more of the four prerequisites, the candidate should not be promoted to a leader role. Doing so would be a recipe for failure, not to mention, create a lot of distress and loss of money. It is okay for the leader candidate to remain an individual performer.

  • Caring - One of Four Leader Prerequisites

    "Send me a text message and let me know what you think of the First-Time Leaders Accelerated℠ Podcast."

    To be a great people-centered leader, you must genuinely care FOR and ABOUT people. You need to do both.

    1.Caring FOR people is doing something for their well-being and helping them grow. It’s something you do to demonstrate you care for those you lead.

    2.Caring ABOUT people is being emotionally concerned about their well-being and growth. It’s a feeling you have for them.

  • Leader Development, What's Your Plan?

    "Send me a text message and let me know what you think of the First-Time Leaders Accelerated℠ Podcast."

    When you transition from individual performer to first-time leader, often you inherit something you did not create. Unless you are an entrepreneur, hiring your first employees, you inherit everything, including the Vision, the Mission, the people, the culture and organizational history.
