Baruch If you’ve ever worked in an office, chances are you’ve experienced or seen some questionable practices. The business world (and many other industries for that matter) is known to be highly competitive and “dog-eat-dog”. However, when it comes to being a highly effective person, the only way to victory is for everyone to win.  Join us as we discuss the principles of what it takes to live with a win-win mentality and create a culture of cooperation instead of competition. We talk about the importance of teamwork and how that goes deeper than just rooting each other on from the sidelines. You’ll learn how you can develop trust, loyalty, and real connections with everyone in your life to upgrade your team and make it across the finish line. Learn key principles, like why vulnerability gives you strength, loving people according to how they receive it, knowing when to stop depositing and when you should withdraw, and even how you can avoid being taken advantage of! This episode is full of practical tips to help change your mentality, take you out of your head, and start serving others and making the world a better place.
