Raise 'Em Up! How To Lead Leaders: Great leaders aren't focused on how many followers they have, but on how many leaders they are developing. This takes an extra stretch of leadership capacity, but it's key to going to the next level in your leadership. And let's be honest! Leading other leaders is hard. Sometimes it can feel like you've got a tiger by the tail! But trust us; it's so worth it. When you let go of the need for control & recognition, and instead invest your time into the potential of future leaders, your life and organization will benefit from it. Sure, it takes an adjustment to learn how to lead leaders. But it's more than possible to shift your perspective to slingshot others into success. by JUST LEAD Podcast
