Why your next ward leader should be inexperienced | A conversation with Liz Wiseman

Summary: In this interview I sit down again with Liz Wiseman who has been such a wonderful resource for Leading Saints and I truly consider her a great friend and mentor.<br> <br> Liz recently spoke at a <a href="http://www.byutv.org/watch/32c86631-2d9b-45fa-bed5-a8c98933e2f4/byu-forum-address-liz-wiseman-12616" target="_blank" rel="noopener">BYU Forum</a> and spoke wonderfully about the power of rookie smarts and how what one knows can be a disadvantage to a growing leader. She discusses how learning how to learn is more important than the content of what one is learning.<br> <br> She also shares some rich stories of what she learned from Lee Perry (Dean of BYU School of Business, and son of L. Tom Perry), when she was a student at BYU, why her husband was recently called to a bishopric, and how to focus on being a hungry, and humble leader.<br> <br> There's a lot of information here and it is definitely worth a thorough listen.<br> Links:<br> <a href="http://www.byutv.org/watch/32c86631-2d9b-45fa-bed5-a8c98933e2f4/byu-forum-address-liz-wiseman-12616" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Liz Wiseman's BYU Forum Address</a><br> <br> <a href="https://leadingsaints.org/?s=liz+wiseman" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Other Liz Wiseman interviews with Leading Saints</a><br> <br> <a href="http://thewisemangroup.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Liz Wiseman's website</a><br> <br> <a href="https://www.lds.org/general-conference/2015/10/chosen-to-bear-testimony-of-my-name?lang=eng" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Elder Bednar's talk</a>
