This episode digs into the impact of leadership, both good and bad. Chances are you've had a number of "First Day on the Job" experiences. Some were GOOD and some were notoriously BAD. What was the difference in these "First Day" experiences? The answer is LEADERSHIP!

Everybody can benefit from learning leadership skills. It doesn't matter if you're a young person just getting started in life, a regular employee working a job, or if you are leading a team. At a minimum, you need to understand how to take responsibility for your own life to influence positive outcomes. If you're a parent, you are responsible for the lives of little people and leadership skills are a must. If you have an official title that puts you in charge of a team, it's important to study your craft and gain skills to help your team succeed. 

In previous episodes, we discussed the life of Genghis Khan and the tremendous influence he's had over the lives of millions. Many of the ideas he introduced in the 12th Century resonate in today's society. The character of his leadership took him from a local clan leader to nation builder with influence that transcends time and place.
