312: The Vision-Driven Leader with Michael Hyatt

As I say in today’s podcast, I buy this author’s books before I even know what they’re about.

There are only a few of these kinds of authors on my list, but Michael Hyatt is one of them.

His latest effort is a book called The Vision Driven Leader: 10 Question to Focus Your Efforts, Energize Your Team, and Scale Your Business.

It is, in my estimation, a book that EVERY leader needs to read, especially now, what with all that is going on in our world today (I’m looking at you COVID-19).

As Michael writes in the book, “…a mission defines what a business is, a vision describes where it’s going. Mission is here; vision is still out there. Mission is now; vision is next.”

The Vision Driven Leader takes you step-by-step from why to what and then how.

Your business will never be the same.
