Blue Collar Leadership

By: Mack Story
  • Summary

  • Leadership development for everyone in the blue collar workforce, those who support them, and those who lead them. Leadership is influence. Influence is built daily, not in a day. There are two types of influence: 1) Artificial influence which comes with a title, position, or rank and is reserved for those who have formal authority over others; and 2) Authentic influence which is based on a person's character and the relationships they build, and it's available to anyone with or without a position of authority because it's based on moral authority (who you are and how you do what you do).

    Nov 15 2024

    When it comes to cultural transformation, too many leaders are dropping the ball!!

    When the leader drops the ball, what could have been true cultural transformation becomes just another "program of the month" initiative.

    The worst leaders cast blame and accuse their teams of dropping the ball. However, their teams were never carrying the ball.

    The leader is the only one who carries this ball.

    If the ball is dropped, it is the leader who dropped it.

    Check out this episode to discover why leaders drop the ball along with 5 specific key reasons that cause leaders to drop the ball.
