The L3 Leadership Podcast with Doug Smith Leadership Pain with Sam Chand
Episode Summary:
In this episode, Dr. Sam Chand talks about how our leadership will only grow to the threshold of our pain.
- Most people don't see how seriously I take every call, email, and interview. "You never know who you are helping."
- What's the difference between the leader of a large organization and a small organization? Pain-tolerance is the key differentiator.
- Pain isn't age centric. You'll deal with pain all throughout your leadership journey.
- Idealism must be kept. Those who are older, don't trample on others' idealistic dreams. "Let people dream!"
- Regardless of age or season, "stay idealistic!"
- The best advice that was ever given to me is "Live long & live clean."
- It's important to have truth-tellers in your life. These are people that care more about keeping you out of the ditch than your opinion of them.
- The number one question I ask leaders is "How are you doing... really?"
"You'll only grow to the threshold of your pain" - Sam Chand
