Episode Description

In this season I'm bringing you the entire audio version of a book I wrote a few years ago ... it's called Sparks.

Sparks is a business fable that unveils a leadership platform containing six core leadership competencies and over 90 leadership action items. To reveal the competencies and the leadership lessons that accompany them, we spend a day in the life of Jack Sparks who is competing for a promotion with the older more experienced John Saunders.

It's important to listen to the episodes in order of the timeline. We start with Jack's dream job.
