Recently, I had the good fortune to speak with Bill Cates on the Top Advisor Podcast about financial advisor best practices.
On this episode, we discussed what best practices financial advisors using to success today.
I’ve made a lot of mistakes in my career. Some small, some expensive, some that still make me cringe a little when I think about them. But here’s the thing, I’ve learned way more from those missteps than I ever did when things were smooth sailing. And now, I get to share those lessons with companies and teams across the country.
I’m going to say something that might make you pause; Working hard isn’t always enough. You can be the smartest person in the room, grinding behind the scenes and still get passed over for opportunities.
Most people work to live; they don’t live to work. That simple idea shapes how I lead. Because if you’re not thinking about the human side of your team, you’re missing the whole point of leadership.
There’s one moment in my career that I can say, without hesitation, completely changed my trajectory.
