This oneās been simmering in my head all weekāafter so many convos about accountability, ownership, and what it really means to step up, whether you're running a business or just starting your career.
We talk a lot about "acting like an owner"ābut what does that actually look like?
Today, I'm sharing a story I love (yes, it involves a pygmy hippo š¦), and why the most game-changing moves in your career or business usually arenāt on your position description.
Hereās what we cover:
⢠The difference between ownership and accountability
⢠Why strategy is crucial in a world of āuneven terrainā
⢠How a zookeeperās viral idea turned into millions in revenue
⢠The 5-step formula for spotting and acting on unassigned opportunities
⢠What leaders can do to encourage this mindset (hint: donāt kill the weird ideas too soon)
