Most of my guests on The Leader Assistant Podcast are assistants or former assistants, so I’m excited to hear a different perspective on the show.
In this episode, I chat with my wife Meghan’s long-time friend, and former Purdue pole vault teammate, J Ballentine.
J was in corporate America for 11 years, then left to start her own business.
We talk about hiring assistants, managing assistants, as well as public speaking.
In fact, I love this quote regarding public speaking from J:
“Be structured in how you prepare, but organic in how you present.”
LEADERSHIP QUOTE
Leadership is an action, not a position.
