In this episode, I go solo to take a brief dip into the life of that extraordinary human Alexander The Great to pick out some lessons for leadership today.

In this episode, I share:
– How he won 23 battles without an org chart

– What Lean Manufacturing and Alexander’s leadership style have in common

Enjoy!

Best,
