Episode 274 Peter Docker | Harnessing Human Potential
“Happiness is not connected to the material things, but having a clear understanding of what’s deeply important to us.”   Peter Docker was a former Royal Air Force Senior Officer, who led aviation training and taught postgraduates at the United Kingdom's Defence College. Today, he is the author of the best-selling book “Leading from the Jumpseat: How to Create Extraordinary Opportunities by Handing Over Control.” He is also a top keynote speaker and leadership consultant, who aims to help other to be extraordinary and unleash their natural talents.   “Having a clear understanding of what’s deeply important to us and using those things to be in service of others is really fundamental. In fact, that is where I started my book—asking the question of what is deeply important to you as a human being. Once we understand what is important to us, we get access to the reservoir of energy and take things forward.”    Over the years, Peter has used his experience to teach individuals how to handle the challenges of leadership. Becoming a Jumpseat Leader requires a lot of patience and enhancing performance whatever the situation may be—during normal business, times of crisis, and life in general.   Join Peter Docker as he talks about discovering your purpose, overcoming leadership challenges and cultivating a corporate culture that is in service of others.   Website: https://www.leadingfromthejumpseat.com/ LinkedIn: https://uk.linkedin.com/in/peterdocker Twitter: https://twitter.com/peterdocker
