In today’s video, Steve and Sharon discuss:
When you serve and serve well, you’ll be invited to serve more in a leadership capacity.
You don’t lead by position or power, you lead by putting people in their sweet spot for them to excel.
Listening is an underappreciated leadership skill.
Attend to the highest priority, not the hottest fire.
Hone your leadership skills by failing.
Tend to the “garden” every day instead of letting the weeds take root.
