Description

We gain a lot of value when you search for resources and information from outside of your sphere of influence and outside of your industry. One great and relevant resource for us in emergency services is the world of business and specifically entrepreneurship. One of our favorite books here at Firefighter Craftsmanship is by Seth Godin titled Linchpin: Are You Indispensable?

This week on the Firefighter Craftsmanship Podcast we dive into some highlights from this fantastic resource and learn from one of the greatest leadership thought leaders out there, Seth Godin.

In this episode we cover:

  • What is a linchpin and can you be one even if you work for an organization?
  • What are some tangible steps you can take to be a linchpin and be indispensable
  • What are the 7. abilities of the Linchpin (Hint you already possess every single one)
