The Leadersmith

It’s easily recognizable in the first few minutes of any podcast, that Dr. Gerdes possesses the ability to take macro concepts/ideas and break them down into relatable actions. In the current state of the Country with “mob rule” and casual socialism leanings, it’s comforting that we still have professors who will stand against the tide to raise up leaders. From his first class my freshman year in 1999, I knew he was one of these teachers. Thank you for continuing to raise the expectations of leadership and educating those who truly want to lead for change.

Darin exudes a passion for sharing leadership strategies in every broadcast. You cannot go wrong with the his wealth of leadership tips and assessing the latest leaders trends for today's marketplace.

I’m hooked! I’ve listen to a few episodes and he is engaging and to the point. I’m excited to listen to more!

Dr. Gerdes brings a wealth of knowledge in his podcast on leadership. He provides so much value and leaves listeners contemplating how to be the best leader they can be - a leader they would want to follow. His content is not only focused on his many years of leadership research and real-life experience, but also on current events, tackling even the most complex leadership issues we face today. This is definitely a great podcast to follow for anyone in a leadership capacity at work, but also anyone who strives to be a better leader today, in any capacity of their life, than they were yesterday.
