In this episodeof Experience Leadership, Marc is joined by Mental Performance Strategist Darci EPOPS (because her last name’s longer than a Monday morning), and together we dive into the invisible, expensive problem plaguing businesses: underperforming leaders who look fine on the outside but are fried on the inside.
