In this episode of the GUTS podcast, I had the honor of talking with Tom Ziglar about leadership and about his dad, Zig Ziglar.
Tom is the author of multiple books. His latest is titled: 10 Leadership Virtues for Disruptive Times, which we’ll be digging into today.
Chock-full of insights, my discussion with Tom is relevant for anyone who's a business owner, leader, or on the road to becoming a leader.
TOPICS DISCUSSED INCLUDE:
- T. Rex managers vs. Coach Leaders
- Why an effective coach gets better results than an effective manager
- We’ll discuss two of Tom’s leadership virtues, Kindness and Selflessness: Why they are so important? And how we can cultivate and incorporate these virtues into daily life?
- Top mistakes leaders make
- Zig Ziglar’s most important lesson
