The Frustrations of Being a Team Leader : The Good, Bad & Ugly of Leadership Development

How do you go from disconnected from your team to dialed in enough to develop people, help them achieve their dreams, and create leaders? 

The people we hire have a direct impact on our ability to achieve true ownership and have the freedom to work less in our business. Dave Hooke went from working 80 to 90 a week to selling 90 homes to working 90 minutes a week in the business selling 325, and a profit margin of 34%.
