Do you want to know the secrets of human performance?  Then you need to talk to an expert and…that’s exactly what I did on this week’s show!

If you’re like me, you’ve spent more than your fair share of time pondering perplexing performance.  What does it take to move the team past where they are at and get to a place where everything is operating at it’s optimum level?  Well…you’re in luck!  This week on the podcast I have a human performance expert on the show, Dr. Joe Weitzer.  Joe has spent more than 30 years researching and applying the strategies he shares with me this week.  We hit on motivation, taking care of yourself and getting back in touch with the passion that brought you to take on a leadership role in the first place (and MUCH MORE).  I know you’ll enjoy it as much as I did.  CHEERS!
