Work From The Inside Out 243: Don’t Wait for Someone Else to Fix It with Chuck and Doug
This week’s podcast features a delightful conversation I had with Doug Lennick and Chuck Wachendorfer from think2perform, a leadership development firm serving many industries. Together, they co-authored the book Don’t Wait for Someone Else to Fix It: 8 Essentials to Enhance Your Leadership Impact at Work, Home, and Anywhere Else that Needs You. Their experience and knowledge show readers how to be positive and impactful leaders.
Doug and Chuck offer practical and evidence-based guidance through eight key principles that are essential to one’s ability to lead others:
- Aim to be Yourself
- Know Your Real Self
- Ignite Integrity and Responsibility
- Embrace Empathy and Compassion
- Decide Wisely
- Let Go of What You Know
- Achieve Purposeful Goals
- Empower Others
They share many examples and lessons learned from their experiences in financial services and the stories of leaders in various industries, illustrating the book’s eight essential principles. Exercises and frameworks are threaded throughout each chapter, enabling the reader to explore their own leadership development and professional directions.
Doug and Chuck conclude that the best leaders are “people-wise.” I wholeheartedly agree!
