About this episode

"Send me a text message and let me know what you think of the First-Time Leaders Accelerated℠ Podcast."

This episode will be my final episode of 2025. I will be focusing on what I believe is the most important leader skill, Self-Leadership. Self-leadership is a fancy way of describing how you lead your life. Often, the most difficult person to lead, is yourself.

If you need a Leadership Speaker or you need help with Leader Development and/or Culture Improvement, visit tdspi.com and Click on Meet Me.

I look forward to our "get to know each other" conversation.

Treat people like they make a difference and they will.
