We're recording again because Jeff wrote a great article and Adam and his friend David wrote a book.

Today, we briefly discuss both.

Enjoy!

Adam, Jeff, and new host Cynthia Baker (Cynthia got married!) talk about how a continuous learning mindset will positively impact your career.

Here's what happened:

1. Jeff read a cool article.

It's a lively discussion on a nuanced way to think about your role as a team leader.

Enjoy...

This has been a fun run, but it's time to stop. Or, as Tom Bodett famously said, "We'll leave the light on for ya..."

Jeff Strese started his consulting business in the middle of a global pandemic. Situations like that will teach you a few lessons. Today, Jeff is kind enough to jump in the studio with me and share three of the most significant lessons he learned during the last year.

Adam Landrum has been a small business owner for almost 19 years. This year he decided to do something different. He decided to take a sabbatical.

No, he's not a professor.

No, he's not in pastoral ministry.

He's the owner of a digital marketing and strategy agency in Greenville, SC, who wanted to challenge his assumptions and see if he could make this work.

This is one of the most fascinating conversations I've had on the podcast yet.

Who doesn't love a good personality assessment? Myers-Briggs, Enneagram, Six Types of Working Genius, DISC, StrengthsFinder 2.0, and Kolbe are some of the most popular ones out there today. It seems like every year we're introduced to a new assessment. Who knows what new one will be released next?

These assessments all make a big promise. They all promise to help you better understand yourself and others. Do they actually work? When team members understand their unique personality differences, do they become more effective?

Mark VanDellen joins me to help answer this question. Mark is an executive coach and a leadership development consultant. He shares his experience with one of these popular personality assessment tools as well as how he has seen this particular tool impact teams.
