My Sirius XM guest this week has a very unique background.

She is Mitzi Perdue, the daughter of the co-founder and president of the Sheraton Hotel Chain. Plus, she’s the widow of another business titan, Frank Perdue (“the chicken guy”) whose products are now sold in more than 50 countries!

Mitzi Perdue is a businesswoman, author, and incredible speaker. She holds degrees from Harvard University and George Washington University, is a past president of the 40,000 member American Agri-Women and was one of the U.S. Delegates to the United Nations Conference on Women in Nairobi.

Currently, she writes for the Association of Foreign Press Correspondents and hosts EarthX TV’s show, The Pen and the Planet.

Landing #5 on Amazon’s Business Biographies is Mitzi’s book, Tough Man, Tender Chicken: Business and Life Lessons from Frank Perdue.

She’s also the author of the book, I Didn’t Bargain for This, her story of growing up as a hotel heiress.

In this interview, Mitzi Perdue shares these 11 powerful insights taken from her newest book, The Frank Perdue Way: Simple Steps. Super Success.

1. To build your empire, you must share your vision with the people who will travel the journey with you.
   
   
2. Inspire your people and they will be empowered.
   
   
3. Let your team know that they are appreciated and important.
   
   
4. If you take care of your people, they will take care of your customers.
   
   
5. If you listen to people, it will make them feel valued.
   
   
6. Remember the deepest principle of human nature is to be appreciated.
   
   
7. Be mindful of every dollar and make your money work for you as hard as you work for it.
   
   
8. Be the very best you can be, and give your best, each and every day.
   
   
9. You can intimidate people. You can bribe people. But, the best way to affect people is to inspire them to do their best.
   
   
10. Build your “talent stack.” This means, build your abilities by constantly learning. Become a life-long student.
    
    
11. Perform your biggest task first thing in the morning; then tackle the smaller things.
