Listen "The Leader Model vs. The Work Model"
Episode Synopsis
As a leader, there are three general components to your work experience: you, your team, and the work you do.
How you think about these things, and the priority you give them, can make a huge difference in how you experience your role overall and your day-to-day.
Today on the podcast, I’m contrasting two different models of leadership and the different results they create for you when you’re in one of these models.
If you’ve ever wanted to drive up engagement, effectiveness, positive team culture, work quality, you name it — today’s episode is for you.
Thanks for listening.
