What Leaders Are Saying
I realized that treating every person the same was not always the most effective way to lead. The process helped me understand the kind of leader I actually am and gave me the tools to become the leader I want to be.
Michael Mannina
Assistant Clinical Manager, Henry Ford Health
The biggest change for me was understanding the difference between driving people and guiding them. Guiding means giving people a voice, helping them think differently, and allowing them to reach the goal without simply being told what to do.
