Embracing Complexity in Human Relationships

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.
