The Leadership Lesson Every Young Worker Needs | 208
About this Episode
What does it actually take to step into the workforce and earn respect from day one?
In this special panel episode, Ryan hosts a diverse group of leaders at the LazyQ Ranch for a candid conversation with high school rodeo athletes preparing to enter the world beyond the arena.
The panel brings together a World Champion Barrel Racer, Jordon Briggs, a 24-Time World Champion Roper, Jackie Crawford, a Marine Corps Veteran & Quanta Services Veteran Advisor, Donny Farmer, a 26-Year Journeyman Lineman & Quanta Services Superintendent, Kyle Seaward, and a 28-Year Journeyman Lineman & Quanta Energized Services Advisor, Rob Mitchell, all sharing the hard-earned lessons they wish someone had told them starting out.
Together they dig into what real leadership looks like before you ever get a job title, how your reputation will follow you everywhere in a trade that's smaller than you think, why emotional control is a skill as important as any technical one, and how gratitude, punctuality, and follow-through can separate you from the crowd faster than talent alone.
Topics covered:
- What leadership looks like without a title
- Behaviors that build trust fast — and destroy it faster
- Why your reputation will beat you to the next job site
- Controlling emotions under pressure — breathing, preparation, and mindset
- Communication skills that can save lives in the line trade
- Why gratitude is a daily practice, not a feeling
- Advice from five high-performers on what they'd tell their younger selves
