490: The Learn-It-All Leader with Damon Lembi

In today’s episode, I make a fairly dramatic statement. It’s a warning to those who may read this week’s featured book. I say, plainly, read it at your own risk. Why do I make such a statement?

Because if you’re anything like me, you’ll immediately want to figure out a way to go work for Learn It CEO Damon Lembi. Yes, his new book is that compelling.

This describes how I felt after reading Damon’s book, and I’ve been gleefully self-employed for ten years, so that’s saying a lot.

In The Learn-It-All Leader, Damon shares the leadership mindset you need to make better decisions, take bolder risks, and build stronger teams. He brings insight from his career in baseball to more than two decades of leadership experience, identifying the traits and techniques that separate the learn-it-alls from the know-it-alls.

And he shows you how learn-it-all leaders think and act differently, and why active leadership attracts-and retains-team members who are adaptable, curious, and committed.

With entertaining anecdotes and inspirational examples, The Learn-It-All Leader is a compelling guide to being your best and playing to win, every time.

In today’s episode, I ask Damon:

* What he means when he says “great leaders aren’t born or made. They’re ‘in the making.’” 

* How to go ‘all-in’ on learning and render failure impossible 

* Why he places values ahead of experience when it comes to hiring, and why you should too

* And lots more!
