Coaching a Coffee Shop Founder Turned Wealth Strategist to Build Wealth That Survives Any Disaster | Brandon Neely | Ep 1035

From Outlier's Edge Podcast with Niiamah Ashong Niiamah Ashong

"Ninety percent of the task is making sure we're addressing the right problem." — Niiamah

Join Niiamah (@niiamahashong) and Brandon Neely for a live coaching conversation on what happens when a leader decides his sharpest capability is the problem. It goes after why an answer someone did not arrive at themselves gets rejected like a transplanted organ. And it goes after what to do when a client says "just tell me what to do," and you say no.

What you'll take away:

Why the strength you are trying to turn down is usually the one to upgrade
Your clients are not beginners, they are experts in the wrong subject
Sell them the first step instead of refusing the fast lane

Welcome to the Outlier's Edge Podcast, hosted by Niiamah Ashong, Founder of Outlier's Edge and Sherpa of the World of Difference. On this podcast, you'll join other high-performing unconventional leaders and entrepreneurs (aka Outliers) as they talk about leveraging what makes them different to make a difference in the world.
