My guest today on The Courage of a Leader podcast is Michael Gardon. Mike is a 3-time entrepreneur and creator of the Break Community on careercloud.com, and he provides a different and non-mainstream view on how to proceed when faced with uncertainty.

He’ll get you thinking and you’ll feel more grounded when the path forward is unclear.

This is not an episode to miss!
