Hey everyone, it’s Ron here! Today’s podcast was a real eye-opener for me, talking about the importance of having the right team around you. It’s our first live podcast, and we wanted to share some insights from the conversation we had during the 212 Conference.
One of the key takeaways for me was the idea of surrounding yourself with people who have both character and skill. It’s not enough to just be good at what you do; you also need to have integrity and self-awareness. We talked about the importance of finding people who are a cultural fit for your organization, who align with your values and vision.
I shared a personal story about a couple who had incredible skill but were toxic to the team. It was a tough decision to let them go, but ultimately, their victories didn’t outweigh the negativity they brought. As a leader, you have to prioritize the well-being of the whole team over individual talents.
I also talked about the importance of self-awareness and knowing your strengths and weaknesses. It’s essential to be honest with yourself about where you excel and where you may need improvement. Being self-aware can help you lead more effectively and build a team that complements your skills.
Overall, the podcast today was a reminder of the importance of surrounding yourself with the right people. Your team can make or break your success, so choose wisely and prioritize character, skill, cultural fit, and self-awareness in your hiring decisions. Thanks for tuning in, and I look forward to sharing more insights with you in the future. Stay tuned for our next podcast!
