In today’s show, Chris interviews Frank Forte, Founder, Forte Leadership Technology, and author, A.G.I.L.E. Mindset Demystified: Mindset Over Mechanic. Frank reveals how you can cultivate an agile or growth mindset that can help you thrive in the complicated environment of today. Conventional thinking has led to a formal education system that is lacking in many aspects. One of the main fallouts of this phenomenon is that young people who are just starting their professional life are timid, and constantly seeking outside validation. They are too scared to try out anything that is drastically against the norm. So, how can the young people of today shape an agile and growth mindset? In today’s show, Frank shares some great tools and techniques that can help you do just that. Listeners will be reminded that failing over, again and again, is the ONLY way to broaden your horizons and enhance your skillsets. Frank shares why you need to set a BHAG – your own Big, Hairy, Audacious Goal. Sharing your BHAG with your mentors and peers will ensure accountability and push you to put in your best. In this segment of the show, Frank shares his own experience of being mentored by great John Maxwell. John is one of the foremost leadership experts in the world – and one of the main reasons for this is his surreal story-telling abilities. Frank shares that while successful leaders are excellent at number crunching, they also need to learn HOW to wrap an engaging narrative around that data. Other topics discussed in today’s show include the importance of self-leadership, the concept of servant leadership, tips for dealing with failure, and much, much more. Enjoy!
