S1/E7: Leadership, Management, & Finding Your Strengths with Courtney Underwood
Episode Guest: Courtney Underwood of Kassar Consulting
There are crucial differences between being a manager and being a leader. The challenge is that being a good and effective leader is a skill that takes time to develop, hone, and practice. While many of us want to lead or manage our businesses and our teams, we don’t always have a thorough understanding of those roles or how our individual strengths impact how we show up for our business at every size.
Courtney and I talk about the concepts of leadership, management, and effective work culture. Courtney highlights the value of identifying one's strengths to focus on and understanding how our weaknesses have challenges that can blindside us. Courtney believes working in our Zone of Genius can increase productivity, improve personal and professional relationships, and reduce the chance of burnout. She also talks about her amazing Management Accelerator Program that develops real-world people management skills.
Things Courtney is passionate about:
- Teaching entrepreneurs the power of people
- Business ownership doesn’t have to be a sacrificial grind
- Culture, Culture, Culture
- Helping clients who are ready to make bold decisions!
