This year, I’ve started a new leadership podcast and a newsletter called, “Learning to Lead”. In the podcast, I will be interviewing leaders as well as sharing what I have been learning about leadership. My hope is that through these resources, you will grow both as a person and as a leader.

If that is something you are interested in, please sign-up for the Learning to Lead Newsletter here. The Newsletter will be published 1-2 times a month with new leadership content not found on my blog, leadership quotes, leadership resources, and interviews with leaders. Subscribe Now!

In this episode, I interviewed my future father-in-law and the Director of Admission at Carnegie Mellon University. In part 1, we talked about self-leadership and leadership in the home. In part 2, to be released later, we talked about leadership in the workplace. Mike and I hope that these interviews will add value to your life and help you to develop as a leader. Listen here:

I was listening to the radio show and the host was a famous musician. Someone called in and asked how they could get into the industry and make it big.

He said, “You may be a little disappointed with my answer, but I’d encourage you to find an area of the business that you like, whether it’s marketing and promotion, sales, event planning, etc. and get your foot in the door and see if it’s actually something you want to do. Intern, work for free, do anything you can to get your feet wet and in the door. After all, I always say that you have to be present to win!”
