Million Dollar Coach: How To Be A Great Leader | 110

This is far more important than any pricing strategy we could map out on a board or any tactic. Absolutely. Behind the scenes of some of the most successful startups you've heard of, there's often a coach in the room. Someone helping the founder think clearly when things feel messy. That person for me is my coach, Dan Putt. So something that you've helped me a lot and probably helped hundreds of other leaders with is this reframe of from conflict being a bad thing to conflict being a good thing. Mhmm. So can you talk about that? Yeah. He's one of the founders of Reboot, and he spent years working with leaders and executives who are trying to grow without losing themselves in the process.

And there's another episode where we'll dive into my story and that journey and everything else. But what I want to do is take advantage of the seat that you have of talking to all of these incredible leaders across a huge range of companies, like, from dozens to thousands of employees. And you really get to spend all the time with the founders and see those common trends, the places that they could get stuck, and, like, a lot of the common tools that you're able to give them. And I thought it'd be great if we could dive into some of those today. Okay. I'm not usually the one being asked questions. You like to ask the questions. I like to ask the questions. That's the first thing is that the most likely thing is that at some point, you'll turn it around and ask questions. That's a good place to start because that comes down to your approach to coaching.
