Respect for each other's styles is key.You gain trust and a wonderful partnership when you learn to accept your shortcomings and appreciate your partner's strengths.Embrace your own ignorance. There's nothing wrong with not knowing, but it's not okay not to have the intellectual curiosity to find out, and not to associate with people who may have answers. Prepare yourself before speaking the truth, as you can only exert pressure and be fearless if you're prepared. Plan carefully, anticipate risks as best you can, and then make a commitment to go."One, don’t break your word, two, you have to be accountable, and three, you've got to be able to make a decision." —  Eric Bland“You should embrace your ignorance, you should be comfortable in your limitations. But you're not going to get there until you first accept the reality.” – Ronnie Richter  See Dean’s TedTalk “Why Business Needs Intuition” here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EEq9IYvgV7I Connect with Eric Bland and Ronnie Richter:  Website: https://blandrichter.com/Connect with Dean:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgqRK8GC8jBIFYPmECUCMkwWebsite: https://www.mfileadership.com/The Mission Statement E-Newsletter: https://www.mfileadership.com/blog/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/deannewlund/Twitter: https://twitter.com/deannewlundFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/MissionFacilitators/Email: [email protected]: 1-800-926-7370Show notes by Podcastologist: Justine Talla  Audio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.
