Mod #13: Leadership From Behind
Syllabus Contributor: Private Wealth Advisor Brian J. Waddell, CFP®, RICP®, CEPA®, AIF®
One of the most relevant leadership lessons Brian has learned is that real leadership doesn’t happen in front of people. It happens behind them. Early in his career, Brian realized that if he focused on putting others on bigger stages, helping them grow, and supporting their vision, everyone rises together. Whether it’s his team, business partners, clients, or even his kids, leadership is about Investing in others so they can become leaders themselves.
