If everyone were focused solely on giving, would there be anyone left to receive? There are numerous reasons why leaders (and individuals in general) often struggle when it comes to receiving help, support, words of praise, compliments, and unique perspectives/opinions. In his acclaimed work "Lessons from Abdul," renowned speaker and author Robb Holman delves into the key factors that frequently hinder leaders from embracing receptivity. Through the profound transformative insights he gained from an unconventional mentor, Holman provides valuable guidance to surmount these obstacles. By becoming a more genuine and open receiver, you inevitably cultivate the capacity to be a purposeful and selfless giver.
