Culture of Champions: Velton Showell III's Masterclass on Leadership Excellence
02/19/24 • 43 min
Embark on a transformative journey as we, alongside the esteemed Velton Showell III, delve into the profound layers of leadership that transcend mere titles. Discover how self-leadership can serve as the bedrock for nurturing a culture that not only acknowledges but celebrates the contributions of each team member. As Velton eloquently shares, wielding influence is less about the authority your position holds and more about the genuine connections you forge, inspiring those around you to see you as a leader worth following.
Strategic planning and the ability to measure success are the compass and map for any organization's journey. In this episode, I recount valuable lessons from my own experiences, including pivotal moments in South Florida that showcase the undeniable power of asking the right questions. Learn how a well-documented strategy, complemented by rigorous assessments, can secure team alignment, drive personal growth, and amplify your ability to adapt and navigate through the ever-shifting landscape of business.
In our final chapter, we reconcile the undeniable force of technology with the timeless value of human interaction. I recount a heartwarming reconnection with Felix, whose career trajectory was shaped by a handful of insightful questions posed years ago. Tune in for a candid discussion on the balancing act of embracing AI's potential in the workplace while never losing sight of the personal relationships that are the cornerstone of any successful enterprise. And as a testament to our 150-episode milestone, we invite you to further your path to excellence with our Follow Brand TV series, an invaluable resource for those committed to elevating their leadership game.
