Norman Farrar doesn’t lead by barking orders—he leads by building trust. In this episode, he explains how strong leadership isn’t about being the loudest voice in the room. It’s about showing up consistently, listening carefully, and creating space for others to lead.

Norm shares how his leadership style evolved from his early days in manufacturing to running global teams across e-commerce and brand development. He dives into how he builds loyalty—not just with customers, but with employees—by leading with vulnerability and owning his mistakes.

Craig Andrews presses in on what makes Norm different. The answer? He doesn’t separate leadership from life. His personal values guide every business decision. That means putting people first, leading with patience, and fostering a culture where everyone is heard.

If you think leadership means being in control, this episode will challenge you. If you think leadership means being consistent and clear, it’ll reinforce what you already know.
