Gateway CEO kicked off their first guest speaker this morning with Andrew Ambrose, First National Bank of Waterloo. Even though Andrew works in commercial lending daily, he focused on so much more than the day to day. As young leaders, understanding the importance of your Why, your character and your ability to give back -- is what sets you apart in life more than anything. Here are some highlights from today's discussions.
- Character is just as important as your business plan
- Earn Learn Return - The only way the world gets better is by giving back. Seek opportunities that you are passionate about to help others. It's always important.
- Golden Circle - from Simon Sinek - your Why is at the center of what you do in life and business. The What and How are come next.
- What sets you apart in business? Always grinding. Put your employees first. Employees will put your clients first.
Thank you for spending time with us this morning! And we loved the Mister Donut story and their amazing donuts!
