Gore & Associates to pursue a partnership with Humessence, whose vision is to improve the lives of workers by delivering improved and excellence in leadership.In this episode, Brett and Mick talk about the common mistakes most leaders make such as wanting to be the smartest person in the room, answering every question and ending up doing most of the work. Brett also defines humility as being grounded, knowing who you are, and having enough self-confidence to admit that you don’t have all of the solutions. His shared vision to help companies create a culture where people can be engaged, where psychological safety is present, and where people can reach their full potential so they can bring this culture at home, is what led him to be part of Humessence. This then inspired him to write a book, Discovering Leaders Within, where he shares the seven-step method in human-based leadership. 🎧 Download this episode to discover the significance of humility in leadership, and the impact your leadership makes beyond the four walls of your office space.🌐 Connect with BrettAmazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BVGLRMZNEmail: [email protected]: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lbrettlarson/Book References:Good to Great by Jim CollinsThe Four Agreements by Don Miguel RuizSend us Fan Mail The Thrive Careers Podcast My career wasn’t a straight line—it was a series of pivots, survival jobs, and...Listen on: Apple Podcasts   Support the show✅ Follow The Leadership Project on your favourite podcast platform and listen to a new episode every week!📝 Don’t forget to share your thoughts on the episode in the comments below. 🔔 Join us in our mission at The Leadership Project and learn more about our organisation here:  https://linktr.ee/mickspiers 📕 You can purchase a copy of the Mick Spiers bestselling book "You're a Leader, Now What?" as an eBook or paperback at Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09ZBKK8XVIf you would like a signed copy, please reach out to [email protected] and we can arrange it for you too.If you're thinking about starting a podcast or upgrading your hosting, Buzzsprout is a great option!
