In today’s episode, I’m talking about creativity’s role in leadership with Grammy award winner, Maynard James Keenan. Most know Maynard for his amazing performances as the leading front man of Tool, A Perfect Circle, and Puscifer, but he also owns (and runs) his own winery, Caduceus, in Arizona. You’ll learn why innovation in leadership is ESSENTIAL to being successful, regardless of your occupation, as well as the importance of gathering and leading a team that reflects your hard-working efforts. If you’re leading others, you won’t want to miss this inspiring episode!

Thank you for this dialogue. Listened with pleasure, becouse very respect Maynard Games Keenan and his creative, wich I knew when i was young, and his vocal helps in my profession, to be rock- actress and singer. Thank you so much, and i wish him healthy, strong and success on the stage and in his life.
Great Pod-Cast,
This is the first that I have listened to, and I’m sure it won’t be the last. Great Questions and it was very interesting to hear from MJK. He is a fascinating person and his ambitions are inspiring. As you mentioned, how do you start that journey, well worst case, you start over… so just go.
Great podcast. I enjoyed hearing his perspective.
