The Leadership Staircase consists of five levels of freedom. As you move up the staircase, you get more freedom and responsibility. 

Level four and five on the Leadership Staircase happens when you see what needs to be done and can make it happen. 

"If you can figure out what your boss wants done, those are the things you can do without approval". That is when you have made it to the top of the Leadership Staircase.

Hiring the right people is the most important thing an organization can do. Understanding how to hire high performers is the key to a great work environment. 

Carol Quinn, CEO of Hire Authority, joins Lee Cockerell to discuss Motivation Based Interviewing. 

Motivation Based Interviewing, known as MBI, will change the way you hire people. When you change the way you hire people, the performance and attitude of the entire organization will change. 

Lee Cockerell says better hiring is one of the best cost management measures an organization can adopt.

Most people don't realize the impact you can have on someone else by serving as a mentor. 

Early in Lee Cockerell's career, he had two people who stepped up to act as a mentor. Lee credits those mentors for the successful career he had at Hilton, Marriott, and Disney. Because of the impact mentors had on Lee, he now gives back by teaching others. 

Often, people ask how they can find a mentor. You can't find a mentor, but a mentor can find you. When you work hard and with a great attitude, someone is likely to want to work with you to help you work better.
