7FF 498: 6 Leadership Mistakes I’ve Been Making

November 9, 2021

About This Episode

Time to be open and honest…

I just picked up on 6 things we’ve been doing wrong here in the 7 Figure Flipping leadership team.

I want to share this with you because I think knowing this stuff could help your business.

Here’s the whole story and what I learned...

Yesterday I spent the entire day in an annual planning meeting with the 7 Figure Flipping leadership team.

We’ve been mapping out where we want to take the company in 2022.

(Which is always a lot of fun.)

But this meeting is NOT just a planning session…

It’s also a chance for us to put everything on the table and dig into any issues that might be causing problems within the company and how we can do better.

(Which is less fun… but JUST AS IMPORTANT.)

My team and I are real with each other.

We’re honest with each other.

We hold each other accountable.

And because of that, I came away from yesterday’s meeting with 6 big takeaways that are going to help me and the rest of the leadership team communicate better, get more done, save time, and grow…

I’m sharing them all in today’s podcast episode…
