By being different and bringing difference, you can help make the world a more interesting place for everyone.
In this episode, Alan talks about why being different and bringing difference is important. According to him, it takes a lot of courage to be different.

In leadership, it is often said that there is no room for differences. In order to succeed, everyone must be on the same page and think in the same way. But this isn't necessarily true. In fact, embracing your differences and bringing them to the table can actually make you a better leader.
Different doesn't have to mean wrong, and when it comes to leadership, being different can actually be a good thing. So don't be afraid to stand out from the rest - embrace your quirks and let them help you become a better leader.
