#149 – From Tech Geek to Leader, When Does That Make Sense?
Scott Drake got promoted to leadership under the “Peter Principle.” He was a superstar, so promote him! No training and limited support. Just be a leader and meet the metrics.
Have you been there, done that? It’s often a struggle.
Scott learned a lot, on his own and from some very seasoned people. As he progressed, he noticed next-generation leaders making the same mistakes he had made and having similar struggles. That was a problem. If he did nothing, then over the next 10 years his new leaders would wreck his teams.
Instead of accepting pending disaster, Scott went on a journey. He began searching for a faster way to teach leadership. That search turned into a five-year research project and the innovations that are now JumpCoach. His JumpCoach system is a 3-step process to becoming a great leader, either with a coach or on your own using their materials.
Join David and Scott as they discuss what he learned, and an overview of the three JumpCoach steps to strong leadership.
