I had the opportunity to join Richard Matthews on his “The Hero Show” Podcast recently. It was a great show with a superhero theme which made it a lot of fun to be a guest on.
Here’s just a taste of what we talked about today:
- Scott shared the side-hustle beginning of his podcasting journey while serving the Canadian Army.
- Serving the Canadian Army involved a lot of mentoring and coaching. This path led to Scott’s discovery of his passion for leadership. Years later, this would lead him to start his own leadership podcast as a hobby.
- Scott also talked about his ability to break things down the big and complex problems into simpler bits — an essential characteristic of a leader.
- Discover the challenges Scott faces with entrepreneurs that he often talks about in his podcast.
- For Scott McCarthy, leaders should be thinking strategically in times of crisis. Learn how to think in terms of visions, and the path ahead, getting from point A to B.
- Scott gives away tips and tricks on task delegation for entrepreneurs who have a hard time offloading assignments.
- “Culture will make or break an organization company,” Scott defines what a good company culture looks like, and how to establish it in your organization big or small.
- Scott shares how “horrible bosses” are the common enemies he has to deal with constantly. Take a closer look at his fight against “boss mentality”, and the horrible lack of mentorship in various organizations ranks.
