WHY DO YOU DO WHAT YOU DO?

DARRIN JOHNSON Senior VP of Sales

@darrinToGo @darrinjohnson1

One of the best parts of my role at Melaleuca is the vantage point I have to observe many Marketing Executives across North America. I do more than simply watch; I intentionally connect with leaders and dive into their Business Reports to learn as much as I can about their businesses. I speak with their teammates to better understand the culture within each organization. When I’m on stage at Convention, Standing ELC, or Road to Executive Director, I can safely say I know quite a bit about every leader in the room. Like many of you, I’m fascinated by every aspect of leadership. What makes a great leader? What goes into building and nurturing a high-performing team? Why do some leaders appear to win each day effortlessly? I’ve asked these questions, and I think I may have the answer. Here are just a few of the things the very best leaders do:

• They practice daily accountability in their own lives. • They know that with accountability partners and processes that help form good habits, they often reach their goals faster. • They are consistent in implementing good habits in all aspects of their lives. • They know their purpose, and it shows. • They are very intentional and strategic in how they leverage events and time to their advantage. In short, there is no wasted movement. • They love the long game. They are persistent. And there are times when their pace might slow, but they never give up.
