When we see a successful leader, it is common to forget about the challenges they overcame to get to that refined point of leadership. What we see in those cases is the final result of a process that perhaps lasted for years or even decades. In this episode, I'm joined by a frequent visitor to the show, my brother Travis Hoopes. Our conversation revolves around how challenges and the struggles we face daily make us better leaders and form better teams. We also explore the different hurdles Travis went through during the flood that last year affected the nursing home he works at, how they managed to overcome them, and what they did to turn them into an enriching experience. In This Episode, You Will Learn:The danger of looking at the end result of a process without considering the journey (2:25)About the flood that affected more than half of the population of the nursing home (5:16)Why going through challenging times makes us better leaders and form better teams (7:45)It is from the most challenging moments that we turn into better leaders, and we do most of our learning (13:57)Sometimes failing is what we were needing and we didn't know it (16:59)Resources:Quote: Dale Carnegie - "Most of the important things in the world have been accomplished by people who had kept on trying when there seemed to be no hope at all."Let's Connect!WebsiteLinkedInInstagram FacebookEmail: clint@flavorofleadership.com Hosted on Acast.
