This Guy Challenged Me on LinkedIn: Here is What Happened
If you follow me, you are likely aware that I make numerous posts. Now, 99.9% of the time I receive positive feedback on them. But somebody might take issue with a post every once in a while, which is OK because I'm not perfect, and everybody has their opinion. And that's just what happened last week when I was accused of being "myopic" and "grandstanding" in relation to a post I made about Elon Musk and leadership. Rather than debate online, I thought I would go ahead and invite this individual onto the podcast so we could get to the heart of the matter.
