Episode Details

In a recent podcast I spoke with Duane Cummings, speaker, author, former CEO of Leadercast. and host of the Leadercast podcast.

Here are just a few highlights of our discussion:

• Leaders make other people leaders.
• Communication is vitally important.
• Leadership is about serving.
• Use “wow!” instead of “how?” whenever you hear an idea.
• "What an opportunity" is another way to get people to think not solely about problems, but ways to solve them.
• Everybody wants to be valued. Create an environment that brings everybody together, no matter what level they are.
• Leaders are inclusive, they bring people into the fold to solve a problem.
• Leaders are empathetic.
• You cannot be a sensational leader unless you are amazingly self-aware.
