Vivian Weyll reflects on a leadership lesson: effective leaders should "meet people where they're at." She describes an early impulse to expect others to mirror her own goals and work style (e.g., wanting everyone to pursue a high income and work the way she does) and explains that true leadership requires listening to individuals to learn what success means for them and guiding them accordingly.

I think that one of the biggest lessons I've learned when it comes to leadership is to learn how to meet people where they're at. When we started Adelife, I just want everybody to be a Vivian. I want everybody to do things like I do. I want everybody to go hard like I do. I want everybody to do things my way, and I want everybody to want to make a million dollars a year like I did. What I've learned is that some people don't want that. Some people are okay with making 100 grand a year. Some people are okay with making 400 grand a year. Some people want to make $10 million a year. If you understand that you're dealing with people when each person's a different being and they're coming to you so you can help lead them to success, and that success for them is different than what success is for you. And all you need to do is just sit down and listen. Listen. What do they want out of this opportunity? And. And if you can just listen and meet them where they're at, you're always going to be a good leader.
