It's fairly obvious why judging someone based on their appearance is a bad idea.
After all, the adage, "don't judge a book by its cover," is one that has stuck around since 1860 - no easy feat.
As leaders, when we label a person, the first thing we're doing is taking away their agency in our perception of who they are as a person.
But perhaps even worse, as my guest today reminds us, we deny ourselves the opportunity to explore experiences and gain insight into what it is that drives those we lead.
Jevon Wooden is the founder of Bright Minds Consulting Group, a firm specializing in organizational development, leadership training, and strategic planning for service-based businesses.

A regular contributor to Forbes and sought-after speaker, Jevon is the author of Own Your Kingdom, How To Increase Your Confidence, Build Your Self-Esteem, And Control Your Destiny and as of May of this year he is also the host of the Podcast, Design your Life and Business.

We discuss Jevon's early life and how he went from facing 7 years in prison to serving 12 years in the US Army (earning a Bronze Star), why you can't lead with rank, and how to find the lessons in the losses.
Enjoy the Show!
