This week, on 4-Quarter Lives, Avivah Wittenberg-Cox talks with Richard Leider, founder of Inventure – The Purpose Company, and one of America’s pre-eminent executive-life coaches.
I really enjoyed this podcast - and I didn’t expect to! It got me through my gym session which I had been reluctant to do. I loved Richard’s phrase that we should be ‘learners’ rather than ‘knowers’ in our 3rd and 4th Quarters. I need to remind myself of that, when I sometimes feel like I have ‘all the answers’ with talking to my younger colleagues and friends!
yes, i have that tendency too Susan! Good to be self-aware and zip it. Listening is a much more useful skill than knowledge. Although the latter comes in handy… when it’s asked for!
