The Goods From Kevin Kepple
Top 3 Takeaways From This Value-Packed Conversation
- Being a leader is not something you get to declare you are. It’s the way that people see you…because leadership is a behavior, not a title
- There is no failure unless you just stop and quit trying to accomplish your goals
- The worst thing you can do from a position of leadership is make everything about you. If you’re not intentional about helping the people in your charge grow and evolve towards what they want, you’re just managing…you’re not leading
