Jon, Ryan, and Gabe do some quick housekeeping items and share what they’ve been up to before diving into today’s main topic and that’s — meetings! As a leader, it can be hard juggling so many balls at the same time and managing team expectations, high tensions, and more. Meetings help everyone get on the same page, but they can be hard to wrangle if you don’t have a set meeting agenda. The guys break down their meeting process and also share resources on how you can help your team become more efficient.

 

Key Takeaways:

• Ryan had the best two weeks ever! He went with his family to Disneyworld.
• Jon did an ayahuasca trip recently and he asks, “Why do we take stuff so seriously all the time?”
• The best way to have fun is not to make a big deal out of unexpected things that come up.

• How do you get someone to buy in when they have self-limiting beliefs about the world and themselves?
