Episode: Discovering Your Compass Within with Robert Glazer
Robert described 'Elevate Your Team' as the companion volume that applies the same fourcapacity framework to leaders, showing how to translate personal growth principles into organizational performance.
So Elevate and then Elevate Your Team. Walk me through or walk the listeners through why you decided to write the book Elevate, obviously. Because there has to be a purpose to do it.
And then in Elevate, your team, it was the same framework, but how do you apply this as a leader in an organization? How do you build a team that builds the task?
Episode: Discovering Your Compass Within with Robert Glazer
Robert said he wrote Elevate after his Friday Forward stories were rejected, turning a compilation of parables into a guide that builds personal capacity across spiritual, intellectual, physical and emotional dimensions.
I want to start with elevate before we go to the new one. So we've got elevate.
I wrote the book elevate because the book I wanted to write got rejected by everyone, which is actually a learning. I pitched it to agents and they said publishers don't like compilation books, but they saw something deeper.
Elevate was how to build your personal capacity. It was about how you apply it to yourself across spiritual, intellectual, physical and emotional dimensions.
