René Banglesdorf and Lisa Copeland draw from their own—and others’—experiences to explore 10 tried-and-true principles you can use to improve your current situation and become extraordinary. Their book Crushing Mediocrity is written with advice and stories about how to rise above the status quo in business and life. They started on this adventure to highlight women who have crushed it in the male-dominated aviation and automotive industries. What they then realized is what it takes to thrive in those environments applies to everyone, no matter where they are. It really starts with a focus on purpose, which is foundational and ends with turning your purpose to help others and use your influence for good. Crushing Mediocrity is now an exclusive online course that will give deeper insights and instruction from each chapter as well as monthly live Q&A sessions with Rene and Lisa to tailor the learning process to your exact needs and desires.
