I realized I did not do my solo episode, and today is the deadline for me to upload it for the production team. When I started thinking about what the topic was going to be for today, I went through the workshop that I'm actually about to lead, and I noticed we're doing a lot of nuts-and-bolts leadership training. This is ABC's delegation of how you keep track of projects and how you keep them on track. How do you do performance improvement plans? How do you give feedback? So, we will be having all those conversations about the nuts and bolts, about leadership.

I'm really excited about the parts of the workshop, the parts of my book, the parts of my videos, and everything I talk about. That's more about who you need to be a leader. For me, I steal the nuts and bolts and the mechanics of leadership from Pat Lencioni. I had Cameron Harold on my podcast, who is excellent at teaching leadership teams the nuts and bolts of keeping track of their business.

“Amazing leaders who have accomplished so much have a common denominator: they run towards fire.” - Mark J. Silverman
