Matt discusses how his upbringing on a farm with seven sisters shaped his ability to connect with others and ultimately led him to a career focused on leadership. He talks about the importance of taking full responsibility, creating a clear purpose, and inspiring others to see greater possibilities. Matt also challenges conventional views on leadership, and the power of supportive and challenging environments. This conversation goes deep into what it means to be a true leader and the mindset shifts needed to unlock potential in both oneself and others.
