136 The Power of Positive Leadership

By Leave a Comment

In this episode of The Dive Locker Podcast we learn about the power of positive leadership and how it can enhance you as a diving leader.

Welcome To The Show!

Welcome to The Dive Locker Podcast, the podcast for dive professionals where we bring you the latest in diving industry resources that make you excellent at teaching techniques, risk management and dive business.

Last week I spoke at a YMCA conference, and my presentation was on workplace culture. And I had a lady come up to me at the end asking how to get a boss on board who doesn’t get how to lead. I shared with her some of my strategies, but it got me to thinking about people in general who are put into a position of leadership and how the model of positive leadership is one of the best, where positivity is the glue of culture.

And that reminded me of one of my favorite books on the topic, The Power of Positive Leadership by Jon Gordon. Now, Jon Gordon is one of my favorite leadership authors and I want to share today some of the most solid principles from his book for you. Why, because if you’re listening to this episode you’re in leadership. Whether your an owner or manager of a dive center, an instructor, a divemaster – you play a leadership role in the lives of people around you. So, we are going to build you up today!
