What differentiates a leader from the crowd? What makes them stand out and take charge? What are the characteristics needed in order to fill in a leadership position and inspire others?
There seems to be diverse opinions about what it takes, enough to write multiple books about the subject. A quick search online and you’ll be faced with thousands of books about the topic. The most common theme that all these theories have in common is that a leader is someone who expects the best of themselves and helps others rise up to be their best version as well. They are focused on the success of the team and those around them instead of rising to the top alone. It is not about looking good or boasting rights, but rather collective success.
Leadership is about inspiration and solidarity.
Gary Nash, founder of Genius Investing Academy, fits into this category. Overcoming a critical illness, he rebuilt his life and worked hard to be where he is today. With a love for fitness, he pushed himself beyond his limits and even entered the American Ninja Warrior competition, showing the world that nothing is impossible. With his grit and determination, he came a long way from his beginnings. Jumping past obstacles in his way, he also pursued another passion of his, entrepreneurship.
A leading authority in high-profit real estate investment strategies, he has over forty years of experience fixing and flipping properties, with a well proven track record of proven success in both real estate and design-build construction. His credentials speak for themselves. He currently has over fifty employees, completes over eight million in gross revenue annually, won over thirty-five contractor of the year awards and is listed as one of the top fifty contractors in the country by Remodeling Magazine.

He is the definition of an expert and is now looking to share his knowledge with others through his new venture.
The pessimist complains about the wind. The optimist expects it to change. Leaders adjusts their sails, is a quote that he holds near and dear to his heart.
