There is no one correct leadership style. For Sean, it’s about giving your direct reports the freedom to find their way, while also holding them accountable. In this second of a four-part series, our host Jordan Benjamin continues his conversation with Sean Dazet about his leadership style, and why it’s a lot like parenting: you will need to back off and let them fall sometimes. HIGHLIGHTS Imposter syndrome comes from undue perfectionism Do things one thing at a time Point people to the right direction but back off a little Sales leadership is a delicate balancing act A leader's loyalty is to the company as a whole The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few Be clear and consistent in communicating your goals QUOTES Sean on fixing problems one thing at a time: "This is something I've had to work on myself as a leader, which is not giving my direct reports a thousand things to fix at once. Ultimately, people can't handle that. If I tell you to do 10 things, you're not going to fix them all. If I tell you to do one thing and I tell you to do that one thing for one month straight, you're probably gonna fix it." Sean's biggest struggle in leadership: "The burden of leadership is you have to hold people accountable to what they're obligated to do. Your loyalty as a leader is actually to the company, not to the individuals and that's the hardest thing I probably struggle with, moving into leadership."
