Former Vice President of High Performance Leadership at Chick-fil-A, Inc. and Wall Street Journal bestselling author, Mark Miller, believes that, with the right tools, every leader has the ability to change the world.  In this episode, he discusses his Five Fundamentals to Transform Your Leadership.So many leaders are barely maintaining the status quo, struggling to fully embrace their distinctive roles as architects of their companies’ futures. Put simply, they are facing significant challenges and are unable to discern the path forward to unleash their complete potential.In an exploration of the path to achieve true greatness, Miller’s newest book, Uncommon Greatness: Five Fundamentals to Transform Your Leadership (Matt Holt, February 27, 2024), challenges traditional leadership paradigms, questions deep-seated assumptions and equips leaders with practical, actionable ideas to implement immediately.Today, Mark serves as the Co-Founder of Lead Every Day, an extension of his life-inspired mission to encourage and equip leaders with the tools they need to be successful. Mark began writing almost twenty years ago when he teamed up with Ken Blanchard, co-author of The One Minute Manager, to write The Secret: What Great Leaders Know and Do. With over one million books in print in more than twenty-five languages, his global impact continues to grow.
