ANECDOTE

Student Project Turned Scalable Startup

  • His project grew into Black Book University and scaled to other campuses.
INSIGHT

Leadership Is An Act, Not A Title

  • Leadership is different from having a leadership title; anyone can practice leadership from where they are.
  • Leaders may be scarce, but leadership is abundant and shows up as acts, not only roles.
ADVICE

Influence Without Authority

  • Practice influence without formal authority by bringing people into your change efforts.
  • Use sustainable influence methods rather than transactional tricks to win long-term support.
