AP Podcast - Episode 82: Matt and Josh dissect a delicate leadership situation that could have been avoided

You've got a GREAT idea to improve your business... you think about all of the pros and cons, weighing the investment versus the results and decide to go for it. You carefully craft the message to your teams, expecting they will jump on board and follow your lead.

The reality? Push back. Questions. Resistance. 

Why?  Why did the team not 'buy-in' to your amazing idea?  Chances are it was more about how you presented it than the idea itself.  In this AttractionPros episode, Matt shares a recent experience where an new initiative by a client was met with such resistance and hostility that Matt was called in to resolve the conflict.  Matt and Josh dissect the actions leading up to this and reveal some of the best strategies for achieving buy-in from your team, which is critical for ANY leader (or salesperson!).
