The secret to good leadership? I’ll give you a hint: you were given two ears and one mouth. Our guest, Stephen Shedletzky, or “Shed” shares how great leaders learn to listen, instead of learning to lead. From choosing new leaders in your organization, supporting your team effectively, and navigating the delicate balance between compassion and empathy, Shed shares the importance of treating people like they truly matter. He also shares tips on articulating your values like a pro, leading remotely with finesse (even on Zoom!), and the “Disney Fast Pass” to building trust quickly. Grab your favorite cup of caffeine, and get ready to listen, learn, and lead like never before!
