The Self Aware Leader with Jason Rigby

This book "The Introverts Edge" changed my life as an entrepreneurial introvert. I always thought I wasn't like other successful people, and was never good enough like you see those charismatic outgoing sales guys that could capture a room and light it on fire. I preferred to work on strategy and execution quietly instead of cold calls and sales meetings. Then along came this life changing book and suddenly while reading I began to realize as introverts we have superpowers! We can become successful in our own personal definition. So if you're an introvert or manage introverts please pick up these two books and visit Matthew's Website.

We all want to belong, to be part of something that is special, that inspires us to be be better humans collectively. Your business is the daily testing ground for self-improvement. Your culture is either toxic, generic, or intimate. Culture is the DNA that interweaves through every transaction and selfish or selfless action your family (i.e. employees) and you do as the leader. Airbnb CEO and Founder Brian Chesky Quotes on Culture: "Culture is so incredibly important because it is the foundation for all future innovation. People with passion can change the world." "Culture is simply a shared way of doing something with passion." "A company's culture is the foundation for future innovation. An entrepreneurs job is to build the foundation." "There's no such thing as a good or bad culture, it's either a strong or weak culture. And a good culture for somebody else may not be a good culture for you." "The stronger the culture, the less corporate process a company needs. When the culture is strong, you can trust everyone to do the right thing. People can be independent and autonomous. They can be entrepreneurial."

Field Manual 6-22, Leader Development, defines leadership as "the process of influencing people by providing purpose, direction, and motivation to accomplish the mission and improve the organization."

Quick podcast while in car had to rant about this lol. I have been convicted on working on humility, and I know it is a missing part in my life and in your quiver of leadership arrows. Humility means "the state of being humble." Both it and humble have their origin in the Latin word humilis, meaning "low." Pride makes us artificial and humility makes us real. -Thomas Merton Humility is not thinking less of yourself, it's thinking of yourself less. -C. S.
