How to Raise Successful People – at Home and at Work with Esther Wojcicki
Episode description
Everywhere she goes, people ask Esther Wojcicki for parenting advice. That's because each one of her three daughters has a crazy awesome job: Susan is the CEO of YouTube, Janet is a professor at UC San Francisco, and Anne is the co founder and CEO of 23andMe.
Ester has also been a journalism teacher for more than 35 years at Palo Alto High School. The students that swear by her method include actor and director, James Franco and Jeremy Lin, a Harvard graduate and point guard in the NBA.
So what is it? What's her methodology? Esther has just released a book called How to Raise Successful People in which she outlines a five step process for raising successful people. I read the book and interviewed ester about 3 months ago, and since implementing the methodology it has radically transformed my relationship with my son. What's more, this isn't just a way to raise happy/successful kids. It's a method you can take to work to have happy and successful employees. You can use these 5 steps in any relationship you want to improve.
Here are the five steps. They spell the word TRICK. T-R-I-C-K
Trust, Respect, Independence, Collaboration, and Kindness
I can't wait to for you to hear this really insightful conversation, and be sure to listen after the show to find out what happened when I interviewed my son on how Jason and I have been doing in each of these categories.
