Show Highlights:
  • Point of leadership. Every great tale has a hero. And I'd say in our modern context, the hero is a leader, the corporate leader, the organizational leader, the political leader

  • These are probably some people who have a natural ability when they tell a story, it could be just around a dinner table or it could be in front of an audience of a thousand. They just naturally lean into ideas or images or descriptions that they probably have come up with, which is why I think it's so essential for all of us, young people and all, to read and to listen and to not give up on the old tales, the old stories. They're repeatable and they're essential that they're repeatable because it perpetuates the reason for who we are and why we are. It's not just an old story

  • That is probably one of the most powerful things you can do as a leader to say, "I'm investing my trust and belief in you at this moment in giving me a thoughtful response. Even if you don't have an answer, it's not like I'm going to punish you for that. But I really trust and believe that you have something to offer right now

  • Once you ask, what do you think we should do? Or what would be your suggestions you empower. And that's the empowering process through this new leadership paradigm, which is the challenge for many traditional leaders who've been told to just hand down the marching orders and expect people to do it

  • If you do not get an organization involved at all levels, frontline, middle management, and top leadership you cannot be a purpose-driven organization.
