About this episode
In the final part of this 3 part series, Mack Story reveals a dose of leadership truth from John Maxwell: “Children need unconditional love more than they need direction.”Kids—your own, grandkids (young crew members and apprentices too)—crave knowing you’ve got their back no matter what, way more than they need constant rules or fixes.This episode keeps it simple: show your children steady love first with quick encouragement, being there even when you’re wiped out from work, owning your screw-ups so they see it’s okay, and staying calm instead of losing it.#leadershippodast #bluecollarleadership #podcast #skilledtrades #growthmindset #emotionalintelligence
