Description
The Decision Depot is a podcast dedicated to taking a deep dive into the decision-making process of leaders, their mindset, mentality, and the concepts and methodologies used to make high-level decisions. I will mix educational content, interviews, book reviews, and humor that will keep you at the edge of your seat and make you come back for more. You will hear from entrepreneurs, executives, public officials/leaders, communications specialists, parents, coaches, and people at all levels of organizations giving their take on how they make life-altering decisions. We will breakdown some of my favorite books on leadership to review concepts that will help you in your career, relationships, finances, and your communications with others.
