Key Takeaways:


“The real problem that leaders usually don't realize they've got is that they are focusing very much on building a business based on transactions, as opposed to building a tribe and building a community.” 


“Leading with a tribe is shifting the mindset from clients as people who have a credit card, and you'll just process that and take their money, versus, these are people who my job here is to serve. And my job here is to help and support, and I've got to see them as customers for life.”   


Quoting Seth Godin: “A tribe has a leader, they have a message, and they have a way to communicate.” 


“I find for most leaders that I work with is they do focus a little bit too much on, ‘I'm only leading, you know, maybe a virtual team, they might be offshore, and they might be local.’ But what we've got to extend that out to is seeing you're leading your customers, not just your team.” 


“The imposter syndrome comes back to just doing the work. Those who do the work start to unpack their thinking, and we have things like a content club and content creation, boot camps, and things. And if you can start to do that, it takes a lot of courage to do it. But once you've started to do it, the imposter syndrome starts to lift.”
