how do we capitalize on our attributes and learn how to separate out attribute from skill? what does it mean to have a power within us that has yet to be unleashed? and how do we shift perspective on attributes that we may have once deemed unappealing but are in fact important aspects of the human condition? all of this and so much more with rich diviney. 

rich's new book, the attributes, is drawing great acclaim, as he draws upon 20+ years of experience as a navy SEAL officer where he completed more than 13 overseas deployments – 11 of which were to Iraq and Afghanistan. through his career, he has achieved multiple leadership positions – to include the commanding officer of a navy SEAL command. Since retirement in early 2017, rich has worked as a speaker, facilitator, and consultant with the chapman & co. leadership institute and simon sinek inc.

in this robust and thought-provoking episode, rich and i get curious about what attributes are, how we cultivate them, and why it's important to know about them. they explore critical ideas around narcissism, gratitude, self-awareness, and growth.
