In this brief talk, the speaker uses a deodorant analogy to illustrate how people often view valuable insights as something others need more than themselves. He emphasizes that the true power lies in personally applying these insights and integrating them into daily habits. By staying coachable and embodying the same ideas they expect their team members to adopt, leaders can enhance their effectiveness and foster better leadership practices.

Yeah. And to jump into that particular idea is I'll tell attendees or participants at my events that a lot of what I'm going to share is like deodorant. Everybody believes the person next to them needs it more than they do because we'll always hear something and say to ourselves internally, man, Bob at the office really needs to hear this. Instead of thinking about how powerful it would be if we applied and took advantage of that same idea or insight and made that part of our habits. And I think that staying coachable is exactly the same way, you know, that we become better leaders when we apply the same insights and ideas that we want our people to adopt.
