Your next promotion takes more than longer hours.
Leadership skills grow before you get the Leadership Role.
In Episode 86 of The Wisdom of Wrench Podcast, Kevin Comerford and Amanda Meyer explain how to grow beyond your current job. Amanda shares how reading and learning from other teams opened new career paths after she started in the call center. They explore small habits, stronger communication, and progress you may not see for months. For anyone in home services, this is a practical look at building skills you can take anywhere while making room for work, family, and your future.
