Episode 44: Success through Succession




The Smart Thinking Podcast show

Summary:   In life and leadership many of us individually are working very hard to support and serve others. But what are we doing as leaders each day to prepare those around us to lead and keep the momentum going in our world? This week let’s do some smart thinking on how we can prepare others to be successful by reflecting upon how to support succession.   In your life do you think about succession and sharing your skills and knowledge with those around you?  In your professional life, are you looking at those around you and supporting their leadership development by intentionally exposing them to your knowledge, networks, and processes?  Do you treat every relationship in the master/apprentice mode – switching the roles depending on your relationship with others? Do you create succession around you by teaching others to fish – or do you just feed them for short-term success?
