Episode 102: Value Yourself - Then Communicate That Value to Others with Chris Do
Leaders – do you know what it means to truly value yourself? And are you able to communicate that value to others? Without valuing ourselves first, we CANNOT show others’ their value. In order to be effective leaders – we must understand our own greatness, and be able to communicate that outwardly.
Today’s guest will have you thinking a different way, and help you see YOU in a different light.
