Overcome Yourself and You Can Overcome Any Obstacle
Every leader will face obstacles they think they can’t overcome, but when you learn to grow yourself personally and professionally, you can go from overwhelmed to empowered.
Do you ever feel overwhelmed as a leader? How about alone? Stressed?
Do you feel like you have to pretend as though you know what you’re doing? You want to be the best leader you can, but it feels too overwhelming some days.
Leadership doesn’t have to be complicated! When you get to the heart of it, becoming a good leader is quite simple, but that doesn’t mean it’s easy.
Becoming a great leader starts by overcoming yourself
Overcome and Lead recounts the powerful stories and essential lessons learned from Anne Beiler’s time as the founder of Auntie Anne’s® Pretzels, the world’s largest pretzel franchise. With no capital, no formal education, and no business plan, Anne launched Auntie Anne’s after a series of tragic life events left her broken traumatized, and in a deep depression. As Anne and her team grew the company, she also grew herself personally and professionally. Learning to overcome her greatest obstacle – herself – is what she calls, her greatest success. And now, she’s sharing the leadership lessons and principles she learned to help you move from feeling overwhelmed and inadequate to empowered and confident.
