Most people don’t wake up in the morning and say: “Today I am going to be a bad leader.” If you have ever been under the influence of a bad leader, this presentation is for you.

As a result of this presentation, leaders will:
  • Learn why your ego is not your amigo
  • Realize the flip side of success
  • Learn how to control the ego and not let it control
  • Develop practices for “letting go” of the ego
  • Discover why soul is the real goal
  • Optional takeaway: Leading with Wisdom: Sage Advice from 100 Experts book by Jann Freed
