Richard Lummis and I are back to look at leadership lessons from one of the very all-time boxing movies, Rocky. Highlights of this podcast include:
- What are our favorites scenes from the movie? No one knows anything; you owe yourself, get the work done, and we are all underdogs.
- What are the leadership lessons from Rocky Balboa? Repetition will make you great; tech can be a great business advantage but never forget the human element and practice for the worst.
- What are the leadership lessons from Apollo Creed? The mind is the greatest muscle; pay attention to those behind you.
- What are the leadership lessons from Rocky’s trainer Mick?
- What is the leadership lesson from the boxing ring? Go the distance and think long term; it’s not about how hard you punch but how hard a punch you can take and go back into the ring when it’s the toughest.
- Do these lessons hold up today?
