About this listen

In this episode, Mack Story dives into the core of what makes a great leader in the trades and the impact of the intent behind your actions and words.


Drawing from his insights in "Defining Influence," he explore how your inner character shapes your influence with co-workers. Whether you're a foreman directing a construction team or a mechanic leading those working under the hood, understanding that intent is the bedrock of trust can transform how your team responds to you.


Mack will break down why first impressions hinge on your motives and how hiding a shady agenda can erode your authority fast.


He’ll also tackle real-world scenarios with thought-provoking questions to help you stop and think: When a coworker builds trust with you, does their influence grow? Flip it around—what happens when distrust creeps in?


By internalizing these principles, you'll learn to shift from manipulation to genuine motivation, boosting your effectiveness and opening up more options in your blue-collar career. Tune in to discover how aligning your 'why' with honest intent can elevate your leadership game and foster unbreakable team bonds.
