The hilarious Chris Savage, Business growth specialist, The Savage Company, an Ashton Media supporter since day one whom we greatly appreciate, shares his formative leadership mistakes and the lessons they taught him.
Chris discusses understanding clients' products firsthand, his "hope for the best, plan for the worst" philosophy, and the importance of anticipating potential problems. He opens up about how overworking and seeking validation damaged his health and relationships.
Listeners will learn about Chris's practical approaches to better self-management, including taking "deliberate oxygen" breaks and acknowledging personal limitations. He introduces the valuable concept of the "third place" - that crucial space beyond work and home - and emphasises humour's role in leadership.
