What if the key to successful leadership is knowing when to say no? Join us as we uncover strategic problem-solving and leadership secrets with Kendra Gaither. This episode promises to equip you with strategies for balancing team success with well-being, focusing on essential tasks, and staying aligned with your team's North Star, even when unexpected opportunities knock on your door.

Kendra shares her experiences rallying teams towards shared objectives, fostering a culture of respect, and striving for excellence. Learn how the collective efforts and trust-building within a team can culminate in achieving ambitious outcomes, making each attempt a learning milestone rather than a failure.

We delve into the pitfalls of perfectionism, the joy of embracing one's unique qualities at work, and the power of expecting to win. As we prepare for the upcoming transition from 2024 to 2025, we tackle the challenges of mission creep and the importance of gratitude and friendship in leadership.
