AARON WALKER | How to be successful by creating significance #011
Aaron T. Walker is about significance. He has inspired many through his leadership, mentorship, and consistent pursuit of excellence. He enjoys helping others and believes experience is a great teacher. 35 years of entrepreneurship and marriage have given Aaron a wealth of experience. Aaron continues to reach new heights and broaden his perspective of the terrain by examining his experiences and growing from them.
We discuss the elements of becoming more than a success, but significant. In addition, Aaron takes me through an assessment he typically does with the clients he coaches.
