What’s the difference between vision and mission? How do you define leaders’ and managers’ roles? Why does your vision matter? In today’s solo episode, I share my insights about the Impact Driven Leader book of the month, The Vision Driven Leader, by Michael Hyatt. Throughout the podcast series, there have been a number of pivotal books - books that the IDL roundtable have gotten tremendous value out of, and The Vision Driven Leader is certainly one of them.

Can leaders learn to welcome challenges? Do you have a moral and foundational anchor for your life and business? Why should leaders give more than they take from their employees? I met Steve a few years ago through the John Maxwell organization, and Steve struck me as being both mission-oriented and exceptionally altruistic. Steve serves on the board of John Maxwell’s non-profit organization, EQUIP, and it’s through Steve’s giving there that he’s become an examplar of compassionate and selfless leadership. Steve also works through his own company, Millwood Inc., to engage with and give back to the community that they are involved in, and the ripple effect of his work will be felt years from now.
