When I ask you about your leadership style, what the first thing that comes to mind? Is it dictator, hands off, collaborative, something else.
In this episode of A New Direction we dive into leadership style.

Perhaps you have a leadership style of being a “Fixer”. Or maybe you have a leadership style of being an “Artist”. Maybe a “Builder” or a “Strategist”. The fact is we all have a preference towards a leadership style, but we may not recognize it. In this episode Robert Jordan, helps you to narrow down what your leadership style is and what organizations you best fit in, and when it is time to perhaps get out.
