Steve kicks off a Book of the Week episode with a title he says has shaped how he runs his companies for over a decade: Strengths-Based Leadership, built on Gallup's research into more than a million work teams.
He walks through why the book leans on data instead of personality-test guesswork, uses Winston Churchill as an example of a strength in action, and explains why knowing your own strengths (and your team's) changes how you lead and delegate.
For founders and managers who want a research-based framework for building culture around real strengths rather than assumptions.
