When was the last time you were asked for your 10-year plan? Did you have an answer?

If not…that may be a good thing.

Scott Whitlock, CEO of Flexware Innovation, joins Joe and Reid on this week’s episode of 1,000 Stories to share his personal philosophy on accountability partners, the importance of asking questions, finding a job that you’re passionate about, becoming an approachable leader, the Enneagram, and more.

Scott shares his first-hand insight on these topics to help you become a strong leader in the workplace, love your job, and understand your co-workers on a deeper level—all while reminding us that not having your “next step” planned out might actually be the key to your growth.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

1. In order to find what you love, you need to sit down with different people and ask them questions about what they do. You were given a mouth to speak and ears to listen!
2. It’s better to decline a job offer that you are completely uninterested in than to take it. It’s better to find a position that you love than be in one where you’re miserable.
3. Setting milestones, goals, and guideposts can help you stay accountable.
