Every entrepreneur needs to be careful about who they choose as their role models. Your choices speak to your mindset, your business motivation, and your business success. In this episode, business coaches Dan Sullivan and Shannan Waller talk about why each of Dan’s five role models made the list.

Here's some of what you'll learn in this episode:

  • The three categories that all five role models fit into.
  • How Euclid’s principles are timeless.
  • How the qualities of Dan’s role models influence his creation of Strategic Coach® thinking tools.
  • Things most people don’t know about Shakespeare.
  • The uniqueness and intelligence evident in Bach’s music.
  • The ways in which all five of Dan’s role models were entrepreneurs.
