- Entrepreneurship
What’s the one thing you must do if you want to build influence with others? What is emotional labor? Why does it matter? Where can you find more opportunities to lead, even if you’re brand new? On today’s show, we hear from Dina Denham Smith, a certified executive coach and author of an upcoming book on science-backed principles for effective modern leadership. Together we talk about why leadership is so much more than your title, what you need to do to bond with your team and develop authenticity, and why deeper connections drive better outcomes.
