You'll learn how to: Organize your work day for success Distinguish between important tasks and urgent tasks Manage emails and meetings so you can get work done Delegate tasks confidently Learn to say no tactfully Mentor your team so they don't feel micromanaged Advocate for what's important to you at work and in life From the Ground Up shares the stories and strategies of actual leaders Leo has coached, with the specific steps you can take to be a successful leader without leaving yourself behind.
