192: Leadership Lessons From My Dad

Today, I want to share a very special and personal episode with you as I honor my dad and tell you about the powerful impact he had on me and others, and how these leadership lessons can bring insight to your own life and leadership journey

This is a somewhat unusual episode — after all, we don’t normally talk about men on this show. And my Dad was certainly not in Tech! But I hope this episode inspires you with new ideas, and new ways of thinking, as well as a few ways to learn from those around you even if they aren’t intending to ‘teach’ you in any form.

In this very special episode I dive into:

  • The leadership lessons my Dad gave me that he didn’t even realize he was sharing.
  • The power of patience and what it can achieve.
  • How my dad felt about the growth mindset.
  • Why I consider my dad to have been a feminist.
  • And more
