How to leverage your personality in management

Monday, August 14, 2017

"As a leader, be aware of your strengths and weaknesses. It makes all the difference when leading a team." Natalie Roberts, Senior VP of Support, Monarch Beverage Company

Managers play multiple roles in an organization while communicating with many different personality types. So how do the greatest managers handle it? According to Natalie Roberts, VP of Support at Monarch Beverage Company, a manager must understand their own personality, strengths, and weaknesses. In this episode of The ROI Podcast, Shane Simmons and Julie Manning Magid, director of The Randall L. Tobias Leadership Center, break down how to leverage your personality, and mold it to fit the needs of your employees.
