You’re stuck in a middle seat on a long flight... with no wifi. So you take your conference notes and literally flip them upside down.

That’s what Sangram Vajre did five years ago, and his idea of flipping the funnel has exploded, to say the least. Terminus has grown from a 3-person company to 200 employees and has reached thousands with the Flip My Funnel conference.

On this episode, I interview Sangram Vajre, Accidental Evangelist and Co-Founder at Terminus, about completely flipping his perspective on what matters in work, relationships, and life.

What we talked about:

• All leaders are learners — but not pleasers
• Sangram’s definition of positive disruption (plus a sneak peek of what you’ll hear at Leadercast 2020)
• Using one-on-ones to create incredible transparency

Wow. 

Sitting down with Michael Dominguez, President and CEO of Associated Luxury Hotels International, is like sitting underneath a waterfall of leadership wisdom. 

Michael joined us for this week’s episode of the Leadercast podcast where he poured out knowledge and wisdom from years of experience leading sales teams in the hospitality industry. 

He shared a fresh and honest perspective on sales leadership: “We tend to promote our best salespeople into leadership roles, but just because you’re good at sales doesn’t mean you’re going to be a great leader.” 

We talked about:

• Why organizations struggle when they promote performers, not servant leaders
• Where you spend your team, determines where you place your value
• The 8 Rules Every Leader Should Live By

A person's thinking has a greater impact on their outcomes than any other contributing factor.

What we talked about:

• Emotional resilience equals success
• How our thinking impacts others (only 7% of communication is verbal)
• Ways to change our thinking
• 2 questions to ask yourself to challenge your beliefs
