870. Set Them Up to Win: The Case for Calculated Leadership

There's someone on Brian's team he had no relationship with. Not a bad one — a nonexistent one. So he did something deliberate: in two separate meetings, he set her up to win in front of her colleagues. In this episode, Brian makes the case that opportunity is something leaders build and hand over, not something they wait for their people to create. He walks through four strategies, two of them rooted in John Maxwell's leadership laws: manufacture the moment, connect before you ask, put a ten on someone's head, and give the credit away. Plus the rule that keeps it from becoming a transaction: do it before you need anything. -- Get on the list to receive Brian's monthly newsletter: https://nodaysoff.com/subscribe/ Tune in to this podcast every weekday morning for 10 minutes or less as Brian shares lessons and stories about how to make positive changes in your life and business, one day at a time.
