03: Leading with Positivity with Angela R. Gerald
Leadership doesn’t always look the same for everyone, and it’s not something everyone chooses (or feels called) to do. Leading does start with people though, because every person needs support. In today’s episode, Angela R. Gerald shares her journey about becoming a leader in not only one, but multiple different roles. She’s passionate about leading and helping people within her church ministry, as well as within her role as an executive assistant. She believes that people will do their best work and really shine when they’re able to use their natural gifts. Tune in as Angela shares more about leading with positivity and putting people first, regardless of the type of setting you’re in.
