Podcast Summary:
Sue Hawkes is back on the show to talk about being a good leader: what that means, what that entails, what it can do for your company or business in turbulent times, and what it means to be “Unf♥
After a challenging period both professionally and personally during the financial crisis, Sue examined herself and the value she placed on external things and opinions. By sharing her own realizations from that time, Sue effectively helps others become more at peace with themselves and their ideas.
