Lessons on Leadership with Jeff Henderson
What do the Atlanta Braves, Chick-fil-A, and North Point Church have in common?
They are all in Atlanta.
But also Jeff Henderson.
Forbes Magazine named Jeff Henderson as one of the 20 speakers you shouldn’t miss, and he has become a trusted voice for businesses and non-profit organizations.
Henderson is the author of two books, What to Do Next: Taking Your Best Step When Life Is Uncertain, and Know What You're FOR: A Growth Strategy for Work, An Even Better Strategy for Life.
Today, Jeff leads Leadership Innovation & Strategy for Chick-fil-A nationally. While his career included an early stint at Chick-fil-A, he worked for the Atlanta Braves and led three different North Point Ministries churches along the way.
Earlier this year, I was speaking at a conference in Atlanta hosted by Chick-fil-A. The moment I heard Jeff speak, I knew I wanted him on the podcast – I knew he would be a blessing to our listeners.
We were honored to welcome Jeff to the podcast recently, and I was blown away. You know when you listen to a podcast, and it’s so good you keep pausing it to take notes? Our recent interview has been that for me. You would think that, having led the interview, I would remember everything we talked about, but there is so much that goes into producing a podcast that I often find myself learning lessons from interviews when I go back and listen to them.
You’re in for a treat this week with our interview of Jeff Henderson. Listen today:
