Patterns in great leadership | Mike Hayes, and David Dodson

This week on episode 337, we interviewed Mike Hayes, Chief Operating Officer, VMware; and Author, Never Enough: A Navy SEAL Commander on Living a Life of Excellence, Agility, and Meaning and David Dodson, Author of The Managers Handbook. Mike Hayes joined us first and dove into what he's learned across all the different organizations and roles he's had throughout his incredible career. He discussed transforming from selling perpetual licenses to software-as-a-service (SaaS) at VMware, what agility means to him and much more. David closed out the show with a discussion focused on his new book, The Managers Handbook. David shared digestible tips and tactics for hiring the best people, onboarding, performance feedback, and improving the performance of underachievers. He also touched on how to get better at running any kind of organization by breaking down each essential skill into bite-sized sub-skills you can easily and quickly learn.
