\"Great<\/a><\/p>\n

Brad Smith is the chief executive of Intuit, the software company. He learned leadership skills <\/a>by becoming a black belt by age 18 and teaching 150 students soon after. There, he learned that “success is creating the environment where people can be their best selves and continue to grow and develop.” I love it! In my business I do likewise for the people I coach<\/a> from athletes to entrepreneurs to adolescents trying to figure out life!<\/p>\n

Mr. Smith, interviewed by Adam Bryant of the Corner Office, says that he learned from his father to: “never mistake kindness for weakness.” Again, I love it. Too few of us are truly kind. It takes courage to be kind. Anyone can be critical and judgmental. “Always be kind and generous but always stand your ground,” he states a core lesson from his father. Well said!<\/p>\n

Mr. Smith also believes in the value of making mistakes, acknowledging your wrongdoing, learning and improving<\/a>. When interviewing prospective hires he asks them to tell him about their biggest mistake and what the lesson they took away. In helping college students make career decisions he guides them to go for what excites them, to pursue their passion or what makes their heart beat faster, another lesson from his father!<\/p>\n

I like Mr. Smith’s style and perspective; it’s positive, no-nonsense and progressive. With this kind of leadership, more corporate environments would be both humane and fulfilling!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
