Perfectionism

Perfectionism Is Killing Your Dealership Perfectionism looks like high standards—but in reality, it’s fear in disguise. Fear of mistakes. Fear of criticism. Fear of not being enough. And in dealerships, that fear quietly strangles growth. In this first episode of The Dealership War Room, Chris Hunsicker exposes why perfectionism creates low-trust, high-pressure cultures that stall sales teams, cripple managers, and wreck service departments—and what elite leaders do instead. Inside this 7-minute battle plan: * Why perfectionism isn’t a virtue, it’s a business killer * The difference between a perfectionist and an optimalist (and why it matters) * 3 practical shifts to move your team from fear to progress * How to celebrate momentum instead of chasing flawlessness ASK YOURSELF: ARE YOU LEADING LIKE A PERFECTIONIST—OR LIKE AN OPTIMALIST?

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍

Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
