[28:57] Leaders inspire confidence, growth, and belief in their teams through coaching. Helping individuals see their potential and building optimism is crucial for unlocking their full potential. Leaders should focus on helping their teams see it in themselves and others.

[40:09] Creating high-performance organizations through a coaching culture involves fostering trust, high standards, and leadership development. The best organizations prioritize their teams' growth, even if they don't explicitly label it as a coaching culture. On the other hand, those focused solely on tasks risk falling behind. Embracing coaching allows for the magic of growth amidst the rush of daily tasks.

The best is ahead!
