#31 Why Being Real Matters - with Evgeny Shadchnev and Jerry Colonna

"Authenticity is the alignment of head, mouth, heart, and feet - thinking, saying, feeling, and doing the same thing - consistently. This builds trust, and followers love leaders they can trust." - Lance Secretan So many entrepreneurs seek to model their leadership after the high-profile, successful giants. Should I be a leader more like Steve Jobs? How can I be more like Jeff Bezos? How can I be more like Travis from Uber? These are not only questions without answers, they are the wrong questions. The real question is, "Who the fuck are you?" You're not Steve Jobs. You're not Jeff Bezos. You're you. What does the leader within you look like? In today's conversation, Jerry is joined by Evgeny Shadchnev, Co-founder and CEO of Makers Academy. Ev wrestles with the question of whether it's possible to scale an organization built around trust, or does success require a leader who governs by fear. Together they discover a more beautiful, more fundamental question --"Who is Evgeny?" In that answer they may find a path to personal alignment and more effective leadership.
