Highlights from Episode 6:

"The healthier cultures/ leaders honor each other and have the ability to have nicknames. There is a true sense of friendship, allowing leaders to have freedom to do their best."

"When you have a culture of honor, authenticity, self-awareness, and congruency, it makes working for that person fun."

"High-level followers are curious. They have a true sense deep down within them that they are great question-askers."

"Great leaders are good thinkers, which pushes them towards asking great questions."

"When you become a great leader, you ask more questions than you give answers. Your posture is more of curiosity."

"Some leaders value being intimidating. At some point, they had an intimidating leader they are trying to outdo, model, or emulate."

"We always lead like we've been led. Unless someone breaks the cycle."

"99% of leaders who are intimidating would like you to treat them like you would anyone else who is a peer."

"Rather if it was an intern or rather it was someone who had been on the team for a long time. If they had appropriately approached me with feedback that was helpful, I was incredibly open to it."

"You may not have any of the authority, no title, or position that allows you to sit at the table but, you have to have a mindset of an owner at every level."

"If your feedback is more about helping you, people see through it."

"Leaders want their teams to see what they see."

"Focus on being faithful and a good steward of your current assignment."

"Figure out how to make a bad leader a partner in your journey and how to make them better."

"Don't look at your leader as someone who is against you."

"Figure out how to add value to a bad leader."
