Matt is truly one of the most genuine and real leaders you will ever meet!

He embodies the attitude of servitude and really wants his people to succeed. He even made the comment that he would love to see them go on to a level of success so that they could be in his position!

When I asked him about his favorite three characteristics of a good leader, he had a simple and to the point response. First, Matt said, “Let me tell you more than a good leader, this is what GREAT leaders possess:

  1. They must have a servant’s heart. Do the things that they expect of others.
  2. Lead by example.
  3. Operate with integrity.

This was overall a really great interview! We even talked about unicorns… and the unicorn perspective on leadership… seriously!

One of my favorite quotes that Matt shared is this:

“You can delegate responsibility, you can’t delegate accountability.” ~Matt Raymond

We talked about so many other great aspects of leadership. Being a coach, a mentor, a leader and SO many more! Tune in and check it out!
