If you want to be a great athlete, you've got to train hard. And if you want to be a great leader, you've got to train hard as well. This was such a deep and meaningful conversation with the inimitable @TheMDSBrand on her @CEOConfidential podcast. Leadership conditioning builds the resilience and durability to perform under pressure and uncertainty.

Sad news for all current graduate students out there. ChatGPT pretrained on scientific papers of the last two decades can now predict the results of your study. Oops. nature.com/articles/s41562-0…
