Engaging with Complexity: A Call to Action

In life and in leadership, you’ll meet complicated people. How do you work with them? Do you change them? Challenge them? Ignore them? Or is there a better way to approach them? In today’s episode, Mark Cole and Jared Cagle are joined by Ryan Leak for a special look at his new book, How to Work with Complicated People!

Key takeaways: 

• Focus on influencing and serving your people rather than controlling them.

• On the other side of each and every one of us is complexity. 

• The best leaders humbly examine themselves first.
