Regardless if you believe it or not, we all have leadership potential in us. In some form or another we all can be leaders. Some people naturally are able to unlock it themselves while others need someone to show them the way to unlock it.
Meet George
During this interview, I bring back for a third time George Penyak. George is a younger leader, like myself who has seen a lot of success in his journey. I felt compelled to bring George back on the show to catch up and for us to have a discussion revolving around unlocking leadership potential in ourselves.
Timestamped Overview
During my discussion with George we cover the following topics:
- Catching up with George
- Transitioning from one leadership role to another
- How to unlock your own leadership potential
- Advice on how to establish yourself as a new leader.
