It’s never too soon or too late to start working on your leadership skills. Being a leader or having authority skills can greatly increase productivity, and productivity can be applied to anything in your life, from business to marriage to beyond! And you can accomplish this no matter what position you’re in, so why not start today?
In today’s episode of The His & Her Money Show, we are featuring our special guest Jake A. Carlson. Jake is a husband, father of three, podcaster, and a thought leader, devoted to being an authority on leadership, productivity, and influence.
He’s just gotten back from a year-long family trip to 12 different countries, and now he’s sitting down with us to share some of his invaluable lessons on leadership and becoming an authority figure. Jake started early, listening to Zig Ziglar on cassette tapes as a kid, and is passionate about helping others become more productive people!
While it’s easy to end up trying to run before you can walk, being a good leader doesn’t happen overnight. Jake is a huge supporter of routine and approaching productivity systematically. And one of Jake’s key tools for staying focused on the end goal is his CIA Of Influence: conviction – the internal belief that what you’re doing is important; irresistibility – getting people to listen; and accountability – action with intention.
Jake is a wealth of nuggets of wisdom that are absolutely vital for anybody trying to develop their leadership skills and become more productive. He also talks about positives and negatives of technology and social media, the importance of process and good habits, overcoming distractions, and tosses out so much more practical advice for unlocking the leader in you!
