Main Takeaways:
- A brand is its reputation. How others perceive you, what they believe about you, what you say when you are quiet, and what others say about you when you are not around, that’s your brand.
- For great brands, leaders must first induce positive first impressions, then maintain consistency, which will foster creditability and authenticity, and finally, trust, which will nurture loyalty.
- A multigenerational workplace is being created in order for both perspectives to contribute to the creation of something amazing.
- When you're not at your best as a leader, you can't give them your best because you can't radiate what you don't have. As a result, one must be conscious of himself, of others, and of the purpose to help others.
