I haven’t met a leader yet who doesn’t want whatever they’re working on to grow! There’s a reason you’re a leader and not a follower. You like to see things get to where they aren’t currently. Most of us who...
Lately, I’ve found myself in a number of environments where I get the privilege of coaching and developing people. In my contexts, it’s a lot of leaders who I coach but I found there are a number of characteristics that...
