Podcast.    THIS EPISODE IS PERFECT FOR… new leaders looking to be empowered, leaders and stakeholders looking for the best way to make a return on investment, and anyone seeking radical self-inquiry.  TODAY’S MAIN MESSAGE… Why aren’t human beings predictable, relatively easy to program, and why is it that my input doesn’t give me the output that I expect? Jerry talks about the internal wish to ameliorate our own internal anxiety that leads us, instead of learning to work around fear of unpredictability and change. He takes us on a therapeutic journey to make space for innovation and the mess that creates it and addresses the radical self-inquiry that helps us unpack our belief systems and how we operate in relation to important things like money.  WHAT  I  LOVE  MOST… Jerry’s breakdown of leadership styles and how our upbringing influences how we lead and ultimately succeed in one of the most open, honest and vulnerable interviews I have done.      Running time: 35:47       Subscribe on iTunes     Find Tiffani on social:   Facebook   Twitter   LinkedIn   Instagram      Find Jerry on social:   Twitter   LinkedIn      Jerry’s Website:   www.reboot.io     Jerry’s Book:   Reboot: Leadership and the Art of Growing Up     Jerry’s Podcast:  The Reboot Podcast
