In this episode Darren Hardy names the pattern he's observed across thousands of top CEOs and leaders: the traits that make someone extraordinary tend to be the same traits that make them impossible to manage. The question isn't whether to tolerate that tension, it's how to channel it. He breaks down the paradox of the 'Difficult Genius' and reveals the strategies for harnessing that brilliance without wrecking your team; whether you lead one, work for one, or are one.
