What do great athletes and great leaders have in common? The best ones never stop learning. For nearly three decades,Damon Lembi has ledLearnit, a global training company that has helped 1.8 million professionals upskill and stay ahead in their careers. But before he became a bestselling author and CEO, he was an aspiring pro baseball player - until life threw him a curveball.

Instead of stepping onto the field, he found himself stepping into business, facing imposter syndrome, navigating the highs and lows of leadership, and discovering a game-changing mindset: The Learn-It-All Mentality.

Now, as the author of The Learn-It-All Leader, Damon helps executives, entrepreneurs, and teams cultivate the skills they need to thrive. He believes that in today's fast-paced world, the most successful people aren’t the ones who “know it all” but the ones who stay curious, adaptable, and willing to learn.
