Season Four is at its halfway point, so instead of a guest this week I’ve gone back over the conversations so far and pulled out the theme that came up most often.

The quality leader whose main function is to say no is finished.

This episode is four clips from Season Four guests on that theme, with my own thoughts in between.

I also talk about why I think this matters for your career and not just for your working relationships, which comes from the other half of my week, placing quality leaders and hearing what hiring managers are actually asking for.

If you’re going through that step up at the moment, I’d be interested to hear about it. Find me on LinkedIn, or book a conversation here: https://calendly.com/h-ilangaratne/meeting-with-hemish-rx-group

If there’s a topic you’d like covered on a future solo episode, send it over.
