Leading by Example with John Bernatovicz

Balanced Growth Show with Dr. Travis Parry

Today we are joined by John Bernatovicz, father, husband, and founder of Willory. He is also a keynote speaker, podcast host and soon-to-be author. His book, HR Like a Boss, is now available for pre-order, and was inspired by a highly successful presentation that John gave at a regional conference for the Society for Human Resource Management.

He opens up about his own struggle with distractions and the constant drive to improve and shares how coaching has been instrumental in helping him stay accountable in his personal and professional life.
