#149 – From Tech Geek to Leader, When Does That Make Sense?

Scott Drake got promoted to leadership under the "Peter Principle."  He was a superstar, so promote him!  No training and limited support.  Just be a leader and meet the metrics. Have you been there, done that?  It's often a struggle. Scott learned a lot, on his own and from some very seasoned people.  As he progressed, he noticed next-generation leaders making the same mistakes he had made and having similar struggles.  That was a problem.  If he did nothing, then over the next 10 years his new leaders would wreck his teams.  Instead of accepting pending disaster, Scott went on a journey.  He began searching for a faster way to teach leadership.  That search turned into a five-year research project and the innovations that are now JumpCoach.  His JumpCoach system is a 3-step process to becoming a great leader, either with a coach or on your own using their materials. Join David and Scott as they discuss what he learned, and an overview of the three JumpCoach steps to strong leadership.
