Description

"True leadership starts when you realize that every person you lead brings their own strengths and stories to the table."




This week on Wrench Turners Podcast,


Mechanic, Fixed Operations Director, and Coach


Bozard Ford Lincoln


Jeremy Stephens




In this episode, I got to sit down with a technician-turned-fixed-ops director, who’s proof that grit and character drive success in the automotive world.




Jeremy shared how his journey taught him that the tough experiences—especially those early days on the shop floor—shaped him into the leader he is today. We talked about building a culture where positive energy matters, and where listening to every voice in the shop creates stronger teams.




His biggest takeaway? Invest in yourself every day and don’t shy away from honest feedback. It’s a powerful reminder for anyone aiming to lead with heart and purpose.




Let’s get into it.
