#59: Tim Arnold—Move Forward Faster When You Lead With "And"

As a leader, you’re committed to making a difference, leaving a mark, and making the world a better place. But when it comes to moving things forward, does it often seem like you’re fighting an uphill battle against broken systems, impossible demands, and unreasonable people?   In this episode, Donald Miller talks with Tim Arnold, leadership expert and author of the new book Lead with And, to coach you to move beyond the traditional Either/Or approach to solving problems and embrace the transformational power of Both/And thinking.   If your business like an airplane, this coaching conversation is all about the cockpit! After today's conversation will help you learn how to rise above polarity, division, and conflicting values and gain the courage to lead with AND.   Order Tim Arnold's new book Lead with And at LeadWithAnd.com.   --   Have you ever created a new product based on a hunch?
