Most leaders who want to get better reach for another book or another conference. On the first episode of The Restored Leader Podcast, executive coach Darren Ho makes the case that the real starting line is character, who you are and who you want to become. He runs the opening of the Leadership Vision framework live on co-host Darren Cooper of 1898 Creative, so you can see the process from the inside.
