Today's bonus episode features "Evolution of Leadership Through Experiences" produced and created by Danya Selber, Maggie Nava, and Rushil Desai.
In the podcast, they interview Dr. Greg Selber.

He was inducted into the Rio Grande Valley Sports Hall of Fame in 2020 and has written numerous books, including, Border Ball: The History of High School Football in the Rio Grande Valley and Bronc Ball: The History of College Basketball at Pan American University.
During the interview they discuss the Situational Leadership Model and elements of Adaptive Leadership. Dr. Selber is a compelling storyteller and says it's the leaders job to adjust to the followers' needs, motivations, and competenicies and that ulitmatley, leaders only succeed when they form strong releationships. Dr. Selber displays humility ("I have not cornered the market on wisdom!"), but also owns his competence. He says to focus on trust you must model it first and he relies on the motto: "Be an authority, not an authoritarian."
