Special Guest: Ben Baker and Claire Chandler
     
 Ben and Claire's joins the show to talk about their new book "Leading Beyond a Crisis." 
 
 Crises happen. While the COVID-19 pandemic of 2020 has impacted the entire world, it is not the first crisis leaders have had to face, nor will it be the last. True leaders know how to stay focused on "what's next," so they can not only pull their people through today's crisis but also adapt and evolve as necessary to future-proof their business. Through a series of conversations, the authors of Leading Beyond A Crisis explore how the best leaders remain a voice of reason amid the chaos and continue to move their companies forward. The book culminated in dozens of hours of conversations, 12 podcast episodes, and more than 50 years of combined expertise in developing leaders and enhancing their ability to grow their people and their companies. Designed for both current and aspiring leaders, this book is a vital part of the toolkit you need to "get to next" as a leader.
