Please join me in welcoming Phil Gerbyshak.

In this episode we discuss:

• his thoughts on leadership “Leadership is tension. The tension between learning and sharing. The tension between going first and going last. And the tension between being confident and being vulnerable.”
• his history of being bullied as a kid shaped him and started his fire to be the best of everything.
• how a massive car accident changed his entire life.
• one of his driving motivational forces – a guidance counselor telling him he would be pumping gas for the rest of his life – and how that motivated him to success.
• the people who fundamentally have changed his life and helped make him who he is today.
• his passion for teaching and empowering others to try something new.
• his mindset when it comes to building and maintaining relationships.
