Anne Lakusta - Secrets to Pass the Pig Revealed: 5 Minute Success - The Podcast

Anne Lakusta is a business leader, motivational teacher, avid real estate investor, serial entrepreneur, leadership coach, 9-year veteran of elected office, blessed cancer survivor, chronic volunteer, Mom, Grandma…and constant storyteller, now author!

 

With an Economics degree in her background,  she has spent years studying – and living - leadership and the power of influence in business, politics and our everyday lives.   As we face an epidemic of loneliness and confusion about the definition of leadership, Anne’s work and belief in finding your passion, building your team, helping others find the ways in which they matter has never been more relevant. The need for leaders who take others with them on the success journey is more pressing now than ever.  And so Pass the Pig: Leadership by Attraction was born, with its fun presentation of the challenges most likely to impede our progress – our “pigs” – along with strategies to overcome them. 

 

Highlights of Anne’s own leadership journey include: 

■ As a politician and president of a school district with forty thousand kids, five thousand teachers, and a one-hundred-million-dollar budget within a booming community with explosive population growth 

■ As a business leader for more than four hundred entrepreneurs each with their own strengths, weaknesses, goals and dreams.

■ As a real estate broker for over nine billion dollars in sales volume and approximately three 

thousand real estate agent entrepreneurs

■ As a nonprofit Board member committed to giving back while also fundraising & profile raising 

■ As a leadership coach,  discovering that the triggers that lead to success are rarely financial 

■ As a cancer survivor, learning how to accept help and leadership from doctors, surgeons,

friends, and family members

"Too often, we hire out of panic, out of burnout, out of putting out a fire, instead of hiring for scaling. We don't actually hire to grow; we hire after we've grown, and we're in a panic. That's the exact opposite of what we should be doing if our intention is to scale our business."- Anne Lakusta
