Leadership Opportunity Fest Blog Tour

Last month, I gathered together some of my friends and fellow Berrett-Koehler authors to talk about the people who saw potential in us when we couldn’t see it in ourselves. These people opened doors of opportunity that helped us get to where we are today, and it was time to express our thanks.

If you joined us on that webinar, or listened to the recording, perhaps it inspired you to think about the people who have opened doors for you along the way. It might have been a teacher, coach, mentor, friend, boss, or even a stranger. After all, you don’t have to know someone well to make an introduction or open a door!

Take Action:

If you would like to share an open-door story, then I invite you to join me, right here, on August 13th for the Leadership Opportunity Fest Blog Tour. Write a blog post between now and August 5th and send the link to my team.

Please include the text below at the end of your post:

This post is part of Leadership Opportunity Fest Blog Tour, hosted by Bill Treasurer. Watch the Leadership Opportunity Fest webinar here, find his book on Amazon, and then join us for the blog tour on August 13 as we celebrate leaders who open doors.

Feel free to use this graphic in your post.

On August 13th, come back to read through the links that were sent, reflecting on the fact that it has taken a lot of people to get us to where we are now.

I would encourage each of us to not only say thanks to those who helped us, but to take the opportunity to open doors for others.
