Leadership Point Radio | Critical Thoughts for Today’s Leaders Steve Scott

So many times in our dreams we see ourselves leading big organizations. What is interesting about today’s guest is that he never had that dream. But he’s lived the dream anyway. We’ll explore leading multi-national companies with thousands of employees because you were just who was needed at the that right time.

Wouldn’t you like to become a world traveler with  audiences gathering to hear your every thought? How about if you ran a few large industrial companies at the same time? All while building a leading world-wide consulting practice? Today’s guest is all that and he’s here to tell his story on how leadership in thought and action makes the difference.

Today we speak with a gentleman who has walked with the greats in the halls of power. From the marine corp to congress he has maintained his own style and life philosophy. Stay with us for a deeper look inside the mind and machinations of politics, power and purpose.

Former congressman Jim Bates reveals the ways of national leadership and politics from the big view.

Ask yourself this question: do I have joy in my life? Sure you are successful. You are a leader. But, really can you say you get joy in your leadership role? 

We explore that question as we talk about executives finding fulfillment for themselves, their employees, business and customers by practicing conscious capitalism.
