Most everyone who listens to this podcast wants to go way beyond just hitting numbers and achieving goals. In addition to that, we want so deeply to see the people the work with flourish in their careers. In this conversation, Marcus and I explore the sequence of five feelings that make this work – and why a lot of it comes down to love.
Key Points- Love dies, not from being killed – but from forgetting and neglect.
- The difference is massive in what we give a top rating to and everything else.
- Love is the deep and unwavering commitment to the flourishing of a human.
- Shift from leaders making decisions to leaders making experiences.
