Get ready for a barn-burner today my friends! We have the one and only Jon Gordon on today’s show and he absolutely brings the heat. Truth be told, having Jon on the IMPACT Show was one of my top intentions for 2020 and he certainly over-delivered.
With all the wisdom Jon offers today, you will also hear from a man who is full of compassion, care, and love and has a divine purpose and driving mission. If there was ever an episode to share with your friends, family and community, it’s THIS one.
Buckle-up and listen to the principles of a man who has IMPACTED millions of people with his books and keynotes. And if you have not ready one of his 20 books (8 best-sellers) be sure to pick up one up today. My faves include The Energy Bus, The Carpenter, Training Camp, You Win in the Locker Room First, The Power of Positive Leadership, The Power of a Positive Team, The Coffee Bean co-authored by my friend Damon West and his latest Stay Positive. ALL of them are great!
Without further ado, it’s time to get into the head & heart of Jon Gordon. Enjoy the show and don’t forget to share the good news!
