b"Josh, Cody, and Molly talk about Monday's interview with the teachers at the Paramount Schools Network (AKA the leadership reflection episode). Their discussion includes how your followers might describe your leadership, what you would want them to say, the weight we place on character and competence in our own leadership, and how to handle high expectations for volunteers. They also pose this question: Do you know where your followers want to go both personally and professionally? If you know this and can get them to those points, you will be able to have incredible influence in the lives of others.\\nKey Takeaways:\\n- Be the leaders that people feel valued by and stronger for knowing.\\n- Be positive and don't encourage discussing others in the organization (gossip).\\n- Maintain high expectations.
