One of the toughest, and most valuable, challenges I give to the top players and leaders I work with: Build your willingness. Every day, show up WILLING to: - Hear the truth - Do what’s uncomfortable - Be held accountable - Admit you don’t know it all - Fail publicly and grow

What you tolerate is what you get. Two things those who want to lead others should never accept: 1. Disengagement - showing up unprepared or checked out 2. Defensiveness - blaming others instead of owning mistakes Set clear standards, and hold everyone accountable.
