#6: Autonomy is a Superpower | Justin Welsh
Episode description
In today's show, Ray connects with Justin Welsh to discuss building a team culture of autonomy and ownership. Justin shares how by 27 he had been fired from his first three jobs, and how joining a high-performing, values-centered team shifted his mindset and his relationship to work.
