Leaders ask the hard questions, the ones others don't; and they push to get constructive results. And they do this will elevating others to be at their best, making not just a difference, but a continuous difference, by coalescing people around a vision. This motivates others to do what they didn't even know they could do." This is some of what you will hear on this episode that talks to the intersection of PMs and leadership.
