Proven Organizational Leader Unveils the Secret to Soaring Profitability in Groundbreaking Book: “...

Leading with a clear purpose, whether that’s drawing from the power of having a clear purpose for why and how we lead the team members who are counting on us or through how we provide that same kind of clear purpose for each individual on the team, is often some of the most important work...
