Jean Chrétien: Hard Work, Determination, and Luck
Manage episode 323149689 series 3328902
Former Canadian prime minister Jean Chrétien made a career out of being underestimated. In this episode of the Digging Deep Podcast, Chrétien talks about how he became successful, why he was so competitive, and what principles he brought to leadership. He also talks about growing up as the 18th of 19 children, meeting the love of his life, and his first leadership role as the coach and general manager of his hockey team.....when he was just 12 years old. And, he shares insights into what it takes to be an accomplished leader, including under-promising and over-delivering, patience, forgiveness, and second chances. He talks about using conviction, rather than fear, to lead people. And with his 88th birthday approaching, we talk about what keeps him going and how he is as busy as ever.
