02 - The Total Leader Concept

September 03, 2024 Bob Dixon Season 1 Episode 2

Bob Dixon shares the "Total Leader" concept and explore what it takes to become a well-rounded leader capable of guiding themselves, others, and organizations effectively.

Key Takeaways:

  • Leadership is a journey that involves constant self-improvement and learning.
  • Trust and values are foundational to building strong teams and organizations.
  • Effective leaders not only lead themselves and others but also have the ability to make informed decisions that guide their organizations toward a shared vision.

Quotes:

"Building trust means you have to give it, not just receive it. If your people trust you, if they believe that you have their back, if you don't shoot the messenger and you underwrite honest mistakes and you look at those as learning opportunities, that trust builds over time."

"It always starts with your values. Your mission and your vision, those can change. The market changes, you need a new mission or new vision. But what doesn't change is your values because that's who you are."

"If you don't have a direction, if you don't have a vision, if you can't explain what a future looks like for your company, then people won't know which path to take, and they will just continue to do activity that may or may not be helping you achieve your vision."
