Forever Faithful, Forever Fearless, Forever Forward: Leadership Insights from SGI & Learning Alliance’s Brandon Marshall
At SGI, we’ve been fortunate enough to hire some of the best professional speakers in the world to talk to our membership. At our recent Orlando Expo, SGI and Learning Alliance’s Brandon Marshall took the stage to share his message of “Forever Faithful, Forever Fearless, Forever Forward.” He blew the crowd away with both his energy and his deep insights. Countless members couldn’t believe he was an SGI employee, and not a paid speaker. In this interview, Brandon and The Successful Contractor Podcast Host Bob Houchin talk about the major themes from that speech. This interview is filled with helpful leadership and personal growth nuggets that anyone will benefit from listening to—even if you saw Brandon’s initial speech in person. Enjoy!
