“Don't make your work your identity.” – Jacob Karnes

Today’s featured fellow bookcaster is a father, husband, business coach, keynote speaker, and the founder of Waves Business Coaching, Jacob Karnes. Jacob and I had a fun on a Chick-fil-A bun chat about his first book, “Master Your First Job: The Remarkable Path From First Day to First Promotion”, intentional leadership, the power of specific, positive feedback, and more!!

Key Things You’ll Learn:

What inspired Jacob to write his 1st book, and what he learned about himself through the process

The WIN Method for giving effective feedback as a leader

Are Chick-fil-A employees hypnotized when they deliver their elite level of customer service 🤪

Three major lessons learned from starting, growing, and running his podcast
