Leaders, find your people!

Listen on your favorite platforms

Whether they need a network around them for support, learning, and partnerships or to source new talent, ideas, and customers, leaders everyone need to find their people. Author and business consultant Pamela Slim helps us understand the most effective and efficient way to build your community. It’s what she calls the ecosystem model, and it comes straight from decades of work helping business owners grow their organizations.

In this conversation of Lead the Future, she walks us through the different steps in her model, how leaders can use it to assess the relationships they have – and need – outside and inside their organizations, and some examples she’s seen when working with her customers.

When you’re in an ecosystem in a relational way, you see that everyone (within your ecosystem) is centered around solving a core problem. And in that feeling of community, we can share a purpose and a passion for solving that core problem.
