‼️ATTN Leaders: Stop letting brilliant jerks contaminate your team. ⚠️It’s your job to improve them or remove them. This clip was taken from the 7.5 hour course “Blue-Collar Leadership & Culture: The 5 Components for Building High Performance Teams” 💥Learn more about the course and watch a ~10 minute preview at BlueCollarLeadership.com/cul… #toxic #toxicworkplace #toxicpeople #leadership #leadershiptips

⚠️High impact leaders intentionally develop their team members beyond what is required to do the job. They know the better they each get, the better the team gets. #skilledtrades #construction #leadershipdevelopment #leadership #leadershiptips

‼️I’ve been reading daily for 18 years. 🔥🔥🔥The Result: I transformed my life personally and professionally AND now get paid to talk about leadership throughout the USA and beyond. 💥In 2008, 20 years into my manufacturing career, I read my first leadership book. 💥In 2014, I published my first leadership book. Today, I have published 15 books and recorded over 500 Blue Collar Leadership podcast episodes. 💥In 2016, I was paid $20,000 to speak about leadership for 4 hours to 80 leaders from 40 countries who were leading a $3 billion global organization. 💥In 2018, I was asked to speak at Yale University about leadership. ⚠️When you start turning pages and soaking up what you’re learning, there’s no telling what you may achieve as the months and years pass. #leadership #leadershiptips #leadershipspeaker #leadersarereaders #leadershiplessons

💥Most blue-collar leaders have never received any leadership development. ⚠️As a result, they don’t develop themselves or their team members in this area. 🛑Stop waiting on your boss to develop you. They most likely never will. 🔥YOU develop YOU! 🔥🔥I wrote this series of books to help those who are hungry to climb to the next level and beyond. ‼️Each has 30 chapters, 3 pages per chapter. 😎They’re all easy reads that are packed full of leadership nuggets from cover to cover. 👀Preview them all before you buy at BlueCollarLeadership.com/dow… 🇺🇸Available on Amazon as paperback, ebook, & audiobook. #skilledtrades #construction #leadershipdevelopment #bluecollarleadership #bluecollarlife

High impact leadership is always uncomfortable because high impact leaders always take responsibility for their team’s performance. Low impact leadership is a bit more comfortable because low impact leaders tend to dodge responsibility and blame their team for their performance. Blame may make you feel good, but it will never make you look good. Lead with purpose! Do you have the character needed to lead at a higher level? If so, 10 Values of High Impact Leaders will help you think at a higher level, so you can lead at a higher level. Available as paperback, audiobook, and ebook on Amazon. Keep climbing! #leadership #leadershipbook #skilledtrades #leadershiptips #successmindset #extremeownership #leadershiptraining #leadershipspeaker

🔥🔥🔥Leaders without this WILL be FRUSTRATED‼️ 💥Think leadership is about titles? Think again—it's about INFLUENCE! 🔥Don’t wait for your boss to develop you. 🚀YOU develop YOU‼️ ❓If you won’t invest in yourself, why should anyone else? ⚠️Learn HOW to lead with confidence at BlueCollarLeadership.com #leadership #growthmindset #leadershiptips #inspiration #motivation

🔥I want to help you climb to the next level and beyond‼️ 🤷‍♂️In my 20 year blue-collar career as an employee (1988-2008), no leader ever invested one penny or one minute teaching me the principles of personal growth and leadership development. 💪When I discovered it in 2008, I made it my lifelong mission to share what I was learning with as many blue-collar men and women as I could. #skilledtrades #bluecollarlife #bluecollarboys #bluecollarwomen #bluecollarmen
