Every good leader knows how culture should be the core of every team, but humility and accountability should still be front and center.

Today, we have Jon Becker, Founder and CEO of Aardvark Tactical and Armor manufacturer PROJECT7, who talks about creating a culture of servant leadership and developing an environment where people can thrive. Jon believes leadership is like fitness, and leaders must be conscious. He emphasizes that the more humble leaders are, the more karma they possess. However, he thinks leaders today need more development and authentic leadership due to Covid-19. To become influential leaders, Jon suggests focusing on fundamentals and execution of the little things. Jon also discusses the importance of understanding the basics of leading people and concentrating on developing those who work for you to achieve their full potential.
