Jonathan's Leadership Essentials: (58 minutes)

1. Self awareness - knowing your strengths and weakness and surrounding yourself with people who are better than you

2. Integrity is key 

3. Seeing the bigger picture and being able to see opportunities disguised as challenges
4. Ultimately doing your best and knowing that, that is enough. Letting go and surrendering to what the outcome will be. This is especially important if you are a perfectionist.
