Some of the best conversations about leadership happen around the dinner table not the conference table. Leadership crosses over all things, not just work. Joining Simon Fagg at the virtual dinner table is a leader he has admired over the past 20+ years as a consultant and coach. We invite you to pull up a chair and join us as we look into what lessons these leaders wish they'd learned earlier and what they're still learning.
