As we look forward to the year ahead, and the possibilities and opportunities that come with it, Gavin opens 2021's account by talking to business accelerator, best-selling author and creator of The Generosity Culture, April Shprintz, about the simple steps you can take on a daily basis in order to refine and hone your mind-set and give you an energised advantage over the challenges ahead.Sign Up Here: https://bit.ly/biz-pod KEY TAKEAWAYSThe great success stories in business are all subscribed to some form of generosity. By helping others to attain their goals, we actually gain the things we want in the long run.If we choose to lead, then we make a commitment to give the most valuable thing we possess - our time and attention. By doing so, we make a difference in performance, and also in the quality of people we attract.The way we treat our employees provides the model by which our employees treat our clients. Lead by example from the top and the results will be obvious, most notably on the client side.Often scale-up problems are simply a case of a choke point in the thinking of a founder, who created a business with an idea, but who now believe that they are the only one who can continue to execute.BEST MOMENTS'You can have everything you want if you help enough people get what they want''I don't think being a leader is that different from being a mentor or a parent''I'm constantly amazed by the opportunities that come to me''What got you here won't get you there'VALUABLE RESOURCESThe Business Mastermind Podcast Get your copy of Survive And Thrive NOW at https://www.surviveandthrive.ccKeep Your Boat Afloat - https://www.survivetothrive.biz/keep-afloatgavin@gavinpreston.com April Shprintz LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/aprilshprintz/April Shprintz Twitter - https://twitter.com/AprilShprintzABOUT THE HOSTGavin PrestonGavin is an inspirational Speaker, Business Strategist, Business Growth Mentor, Trainer andhigh-performance Coach.
