In this episode of On Boards, Dr. Keith Dorsey an executive coach, author, active board member, and expert in leadership development and corporate governance. joins hosts Joe Ayoub and Raza Shaikh His book, The Boardroom Journey: Practical Guidance for Women to Secure a Seat at the Table, provides insights and strategies for women aspiring to become board members. Keith holds a doctorate in Organizational Change and Leadership from the University of Southern California and serves on multiple boards including Vimly Benefit Solutions, Pacific Crest Trail Association and Pepperdine University's Graziadio Business School. He discusses his research-based concept of “optimal diversity,” which couples demographic diversity and diversity of thought. His work has been widely published including the Harvard Business Review, MIT Sloan Management, Forbes and Fast Company. Key takeaways 1.Keith's life in 3 chapters Keith started his career in the U.S. military and the Air Force, followed by nearly 30 years working in corporate America. In 2019, he went back to school to get a doctorate in organizational change in leadership from the University of Southern California. Now, he serves as an executive advisor to lead corporate leaders to optimize boardroom practices. 2. What is optimal diversity? While getting his doctorate, Keith started to research the lack of gender and ethnic diversity on corporate boards. He discovered the concept of “optimal diversity” - the combination of observable diversity and/or demographic diversity along with diversity of thought. This idea encourages people to reflect beyond their observable traits and dive deeper into how their lived experiences and perspectives can contribute to diversity. 3. Pre-vetting: It's about who knows you, not who you know Keith found through his studies that executives who serve on boards, were very often seated through their network. When it comes time to recruit another board member the question that is often asked is: “who do we know.” When it comes to joining a corporate board, it's about who knows you and understands your experience and skills. In addition to giving your “autopilot intro” while networking, he encourages aspiring board members to take a few extra seconds to go beyond the details of your day-to-day job and tell them what you're looking to do. 4. Five different “capitals” Keith's book dedicates a chapter to each type of capital: human, social, cultural, director, and commitment. During his research, Keith found that women often take the approach of presenting themselves as exceptional executives but not as exemplary board members. He encourages people to optimize their human capital. During board interviews, exhibit the type of behavior that they would want to see in the boardroom. Quotes ” Optimal” diversity forces people to really reflect and to think about the things that make who they beyond just their observable demographic traits, including their lived experiences. “It's best to look out the front windshield and be able to say what's beyond that S-curve and that sharp right curve ahead by asking thought provoking questions based on your human capital…instead of looking through the rear-view mirror and shouting your praises.” “ Figure out who you are and what your superpowers and secret sauce actually are and then incorporate that in a way of getting your name out there so more people know you than you know” Links https://www.boardroomjourney.com/ The Boardroom Journey: Practical Guidance for Women to Secure a Seat at the Table How Board Sourcing Approaches Contribute To The Corporate Diversity Problem—And What To Do About It Guest Bio Dr. Keith D. Dorsey is a researcher, author, advisor, and active board member focused on issues of diversity, governance, and strategic growth for private and public corporate boards. His recent research examined women executives' pathways to securing corporate board seats, yielding powerful insights about the barriers and facilitators unique to women candidates seeking these positions. His book, The Boardroom Journey: Practical Guidance for Women to Secure a Seat at the Table, combines his research insights with his extensive executive, board, and industry experience. He speaks on topics related to governance and navigating the path to the C suite and boardroom. As an executive advisor, he is focused on increasing Optimal DiversityTM within corporate senior management, executive, and board-level roles.
What does it take for a self-published author to turn a niche book into a best-seller—and then hand it over to a traditional publisher for its second edition? Erik Hanberg did just that with "The Little Book of Boards: A Board Member's Handbook for Small and Very Small Nonprofits". His journey offers lessons in entrepreneurship, publishing strategy, and the business of thought leadership. In this episode, Erik shares how his early board experiences shaped his expertise and sparked a desire to help others avoid common pitfalls. What started as trial by fire became a passion for teaching—and a book that has sold more than 40,000 copies. By targeting a highly specific audience, he created a resource that spread by word of mouth, bulk orders, and Amazon's niche algorithms. We explore the business side of publishing, from self-funded ads that fueled sales growth to negotiating with a Big 5 imprint for the book's second edition. Erik reveals the financial trade-offs between steady monthly royalties as an independent author and the broader reach a publisher's distribution network can provide. He also explains how he negotiated a contract that protected his long-term interests. Beyond sales, Erik talks about the opportunities that came once he became “the guy who wrote the book.” From board retreats across the country to consulting engagements, his authorship opened doors that no marketing campaign alone could create. And as AI reshapes how people access answers, Erik reflects on why human experience, frameworks, and authenticity still matter in thought leadership. If you've ever wondered how to transform expertise into a platform, or how to balance independence with institutional backing, Erik's story is both practical and inspiring. Three Key Takeaways: • Niche sells big. By writing The Little Book of Boards for small and very small nonprofits, Erik reached the largest segment in the nonprofit space—and sold more than 50,000 copies. • Publishing is strategy, not luck. Erik turned modest sales into consistent revenue by investing in Amazon ads, then leveraged his track record to negotiate a traditional publishing deal on his terms. • Books open doors. Beyond royalties, authorship positioned Erik as an authority, leading to nationwide consulting and board retreat opportunities—proof that thought leadership creates business growth far beyond the page. If Erik Hanberg's story showed you how a single book can spark authority and open doors in the nonprofit world, you'll want to hear how Andrew Button is doing the same—this time in local communities. Andrew shares how thought leadership builds courage, activates ideas, and fuels grassroots change. Don't just think about scaling ideas nationally—see how they thrive locally, too. Listen now to Andrew Button's episode on thought leadership in local communities.
Restaurant owners and managers: want more profitable menus and a stronger culture? In this episode, the crew digs into a simple, powerful idea—moving frontline ideas from the break room to the boardroom. Anthony shares how a young dishwasher created a signature chicken-tender sauce (thanks to a happy smoked paprika mistake) that became a hit with guests. We also spotlight fryer safety, dirty oil's hidden costs, and how better oil management lifts food quality, reduces risk, and saves money. Brought to you by Halcyon Eco a device that helps clean fryer oil, clean the fryer, and improve BOH safety and consistency. Key Topics & Takeaways Break Room → Boardroom: Practical ways to capture frontline ideas without losing leadership control. From Ego to Outcome: Why operator wisdom should filter team ideas—not block them. Signature Sauce Story: How empowering a dishwasher produced a better sauce than the chef expected—no edits needed. The Power of “Beautiful Mistakes”: An accidental switch to smoked paprika created deeper flavor and brand-worthy differentiation. Structured Ideation That Works: Breakout groups, best-known-way (BKW) mindset, and leader-as-facilitator—not bulldozer. Handling “Bad” Ideas With EQ: Keep people intact while you refine or redirect suggestions. Oil Quality = Food Quality: The real costs of dirty fryer oil—from safety hazards to guest experience and higher spend. Fryer Safety Reality Check: The fryer is the single most dangerous piece of kitchen equipment; treat it like it. Halcyon Eco Spotlight: How automated oil care can improve food quality, reduce risk, and save on labor and oil. Culture & Retention: Involving staff in menu decisions builds loyalty, pride, and performance. Memorable Quotes (Pull Quotes) “Use your wisdom as a filter, not a gate, for frontline ideas.” “A beautiful mistake turned a good sauce into a great one.” “The fryer is your kitchen workhorse, and the most dangerous piece of equipment.” “Inclusivity turns employees into stakeholders.” Action Steps for Operators Create an idea pipeline (quarterly breakouts by station; leader facilitates, team presents). Adopt a Best Known Way (BKW) mindset—document the current best, stay open to better. Pilot staff ideas on one item/week; measure guest feedback and ticket time impact. Audit fryer safety weekly; assign ownership; fix ignition/thermostat issues immediately. Track oil quality KPIs (color/TPM, change frequency, food color/texture, guest comps/returns). Resources Mentioned Halcyon Eco – for oil filtration, fryer cleaning, and BOH safety improvements. Unreasonable Hospitality - Will Guidara – culture and guest-experience playbook.

In this episode of Million Dollar Flip Flops, Rodric sits down with Blake Stratton — coach, consultant, dad, and self-proclaimed “pivot artist.” Blake helps moms and dads escape the golden handcuffs of unfulfilling careers or rigid business models so they can reclaim time, freedom, and impact during the fleeting “good old days” of raising a family.Together, Rodric and Blake dive deep into:Why risk avoidance is an illusion — and how to reframe what you're really risking in life and business.The toleration point where people either retreat to comfort or break through to transformation.Lessons from Ivan Illich, KFC logos, and why the best coaches don't just hand you spreadsheets — they coach the person, not just the business.How mindset, courage, and clarity create more growth than any tactic or PDF ever will.Why investing in help (employees, coaches, systems) is the difference between scaling and stagnation.This is a powerful conversation about the courage to change course, the risk of staying stuck, and how to live a life you won't regret at the end.Quote Highlights:“Risk avoidance in a vacuum doesn't exist.

Michael Phelps BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Within just the past few days, Michael Phelps has been front and center in both the sports headlines and boardroom buzz, demonstrating yet again the extraordinary reach of the worlds most decorated Olympian. Phelps ignited nationwide discussion with a lengthy and strongly worded Instagram post criticizing USA Swimming leadership during the 2025 World Championships. According to AOL Sports, Phelps targeted organizational management rather than athletes, citing poor operational controls, declining performance—he pointed out only 44 percent of possible medals at Paris 2024, the nations worst since 1988—and a lack of support for athletes. He proposed an independent review of the organization, an athlete-first approach, and grassroots investment, even stating he would be hesitant to let his own sons swim under current conditions. Phelps went so far as to say his previous letters to USA Swimming had been ignored, signaling a rift between the sport's greatest star and its governing body. Weeks earlier, he had amplified a post from Ryan Lochte practically holding a funeral for USA Swimming, and asked if the World Championships would finally be a wake-up call.The public reaction was swift. US Olympian Katharine Berkoff said candidly on the SwimSwam Podcast that Phelps and Lochte's critiques were annoying, though Lilly King gave a playful nudge on Instagram after the US women broke a relay world record, tagging Phelps and Lochte and joking that they were being quiet now. Phelps replied in apparent sarcasm, apologizing for having higher expectations for leadership and hinting that he knew when to stay in his lane—a masterstroke that had fans and insiders reading between the lines. Swimming World Magazine confirmed that amid this uproar, USA Swimming has just named Kevin Ring as its new CEO, and one of Rings first public remarks was that reaching out to Phelps is a top priority to restore the bond with alumni and learn from their experience.Away from the pool, Phelps continues his high-profile presence in business and entertainment. PR Newswire and SportsPro Media reported that Phelps and his wife Nicole were included among the star investors in Unrivaled, a fast-growing womens basketball league that just closed a $340 million valuation round led by Bessemer Venture Partners. Phelps was mentioned alongside sports titans like Serena Williams and Steph Curry, signaling his ongoing interest in major sports ventures.On social media, Sportskeeda reports that Phelps displayed his trademark Baltimore pride by hyping up the Ravens before their NFL season opener, sharing an Instagram story to rally support and even referencing team legend Ray Lewis visit to the game. The Times of India named Phelps the richest swimmer of 2025, with an estimated net worth of $100 million, fueled by sponsorships, speaking fees, and ongoing brand partnerships.Perhaps most telling for his long-term biographical story, these recent days have not just been about medals or legacy but about Phelps embracing a role as outspoken advocate, business mogul, social presence, and still a beloved son of Baltimore—speaking out, investing big, and making headlines in every lane. There have been no reports of new television appearances but the Olympic icon has not left the stage, just graduated to far bigger arenas. Any speculation about him backing away from the sport is countered by his vow to help USA Swimming—if they are willing to accept his call.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOta
Many lawmakers have lost sight of the basic economic principles that build flourishing societies. From putting Washington in private boardrooms to imposing tariffs, this administration seems intent on focusing on anything but the real problem: runaway government spending.Inflation and many of today's economic woes are made worse by federal deficits that fuel higher interest rates and add relentless inflationary pressure. These challenges won't be solved by squeezing “revenues” out of private industry or taxing imports. They'll only be solved by spending less, taxing less, and regulating less.We'll break down the latest news on these issues and more in this edition of This Week's Economy.You can catch the full episode on YouTube, Apple Podcast, or Spotify.Visit: VanceGinn.comSubscribe: VanceGinn.Substack.com

When platforms profit over people, communities pay the price. In the latest episode of Latinas from the Block to the Boardroom, Theresa E. Gonzales speaks with Nora Benavidez, a Civil Rights and Free Speech Latina attorney fighting for free expression and tech accountability. While Big Tech spends $61.5M on lobbying to avoid this accountability, Nora is using civil rights law to fight back and won her groundbreaking PEN America v. Trump victory to exposing the "Big Tech Backslide" that eliminated 17 safety policies right before the 2024 election. She is the ONLY LATINA proving that strategic legal action that can challenge even the most powerful tech giants. Nora shares how she went from law school—where no one looked like her—to the ACLU and now Free Press, shaping policy around misinformation and civil rights. Her Big Tech Backslide report exposes how companies like Meta, X, and YouTube rolled back critical trust and safety policies despite public promises. Finally, we dive into Section 230, the law that shields platforms from liability while still enabling harm, yet we are still protected by this from our 1st Amendment rights. She is a contributing writer for Rolling Stone, The Atlantic, CNN, and Tech Policy Press. Her expertise and commentary is regularly featured in The New York Times, The Washington Post, The New Yorker, CNN, NBC, Fox News, The Los Angeles Times, and other publications. Join us on Latinas from the Block to the Boardroom as we amplify Latine and community voices, through their stories of perseverance, and having the courage to believe in your pursuit of your dream.

The Dad Edge Podcast (formerly The Good Dad Project Podcast)
In this episode of the Dad Edge Podcast, I sit down with GS Youngblood—author of The Masculine in Relationship and The Art of Embodiment for Men. GS brings decades of experience coaching men on leadership in marriage, parenting, and personal growth through his Masculine Blueprint framework. Together, we unpack what it really means to live from your masculine core while creating safety, connection, and trust in your relationships. We talk about balancing firmness with heart, why composure beats control, and how to provide structure without domination. GS also dives into the importance of embodiment practices for men, how to stop reacting and start responding, and the role of clarity in building intimacy with your partner. This is a conversation about leadership that goes beyond the surface—helping men shift from fear and reactivity into grounded presence and intentional direction. TIMELINE SUMMARY [0:00] - Welcome to the Dad Edge movement and introduction to GS Youngblood [1:56] - GS's bestselling books and the Masculine Blueprint framework [2:28] - What it means to live from your masculine core [3:08] - Why composure is more powerful than control in leadership [5:03] - Growing up with an intense father and lessons for parenting [6:23] - Balancing firmness and love with your kids [7:30] - Relational masculinity: strength with empathy [9:21] - The artful blend of clarity and heart in family leadership [12:17] - Clarity as the foundation of effective masculine leadership [13:33] - The “nice guy” trap and why men seek external validation [15:10] - Why grounding your nervous system must come before clarity [16:57] - Daily embodiment practices for staying present and calm [20:06] - Breathwork, meditation, and awareness as tools for men [23:12] - How embodiment reduces fixation and increases intimacy [27:59] - The energetic flow between men and women in communication [30:08] - Renewing curiosity in long-term marriage and intimacy [32:18] - Why women crave being known and understood [33:42] - Emotional safety as the gateway to sexual connection [38:15] - The three parts of the Masculine Blueprint explained [40:07] - Respond vs. react: staying grounded under pressure [44:14] - “You may not be the problem, but you are the solution.” [45:16] - Providing structure without domination—clarity plus inclusion [48:32] - The spectrum of leadership: tenderness to directness [50:01] - Sexual tension, rejection, and how men can hold ground [52:11] - Why sexuality is vulnerable for men and how to own it [54:31] - Avoiding the “hurt boy” response in relationships [56:00] - When women need men to be bigger than their moods [57:44] - Staying grounded when intimacy needs don't align [1:00:12] - The power of presence in building intimacy over time 5 KEY TAKEAWAYS 1. Composure Beats Control True masculine leadership isn't about domination—it's about staying grounded, calm, and clear even when emotions run high. 2. Firmness With Heart Creates Trust Children and partners thrive when a man brings clarity and structure without fear. The combination of strength and empathy builds long-term respect. 3. Embodiment Grounds the Nervous System Daily practices like breathwork and meditation keep men from being reactive, helping them lead from presence instead of anxiety or reactivity. 4. Curiosity Keeps Intimacy Alive Long-term relationships require ongoing curiosity. When women feel known and understood, emotional safety deepens—and so does sexual connection. 5. Men Are the Solution Even if you aren't the cause of conflict, you can choose to be the solution. Leadership means stepping up with clarity, direction, and presence to create connection.

Leverage Your Incredible Factor Business Podcast with Darnyelle Jervey Harmon, MBA
The MTM Minute is a quick dose of inspiration with a powerful affirmation based on our weekly full-length episode. And beginning this season, the MTM Minute will include a prayer of the week for 7 figure CEOs and 7 figure CEOs in the making. That's right, you don't have to choose – you can love God AND make millions. Are you a woman who makes more than your man? Does it stifle your confidence in how you show up in your business? Do you secretly fear growing your business to 7 figures because it may tank your relationship? In this week's full length episode of the Move to Millions Podcast, REWIND When She Makes More: Redefining Power, Partnership & Profits At Home, Dr. Darnyelle Jervey Harmon discusses the emotional and relational shifts women face when they out-earn their partners. She explores how to navigate power dynamics in relationships and redefine partnerships while managing financial success. Learn how to create a harmonious balance between business success and home life, empowering women to embrace their success without guilt or tension. Dr. Darnyelle shares actionable strategies to have honest money conversations, involve your partner in your financial goals, and build a relationship where both partners thrive. This episode is essential for women entrepreneurs who are navigating the unique challenges of earning more than their spouse while maintaining a strong and supportive relationship. This week's 7 Figure CEO Affirmation is "I am a success from the bedroom to the boardroom. My success fuels my marriage and solidifies my millions. I know that I can have it all – a loving, fulfilling marriage and career and I can do so without resentment, relationship issues or relying on the status quo. I balance the power dynamics in my relationship with grace, ensuring that my financial success enhances, rather than disrupts, the harmony at home. I lead with confidence, knowing that my business growth strengthens my partnership and uplifts my family. As I step confidently into my role as a seven-figure CEO, I ensure that my success is a blessing for my marriage, my family and my business." Here are three actionable tips to anchor in this week's affirmation 3 Actionable Tips: Have Honest Conversations About Money: Make it a priority to sit down with your partner and have a candid discussion about money, roles, and expectations. Transparency will help eliminate any underlying tension or resentment. Share your financial goals, concerns, and vision for the future together. Reframe Success as a Shared Opportunity: Rather than seeing your success as something that creates division or competition, reframe it as a shared opportunity. Make sure your partner feels included in your journey. When you achieve a business milestone, celebrate it together and share the vision for how it benefits the entire family. Establish Clear Financial Roles and Boundaries: Set up recurring financial meetings with your partner to align on household finances, long-term goals, and expectations. Whether it's a monthly check-in or a bigger financial planning session, make sure both parties feel equally involved and empowered in managing the finances. Affirm with me: "I am a success from the bedroom to the boardroom. My success fuels my marriage and solidifies my millions. I know that I can have it all – a loving, fulfilling marriage and career and I can do so without resentment, relationship issues or relying on the status quo. I balance the power dynamics in my relationship with grace, ensuring that my financial success enhances, rather than disrupts, the harmony at home. I lead with confidence, knowing that my business growth strengthens my partnership and uplifts my family.

And this week's journal prompts are: "I feel empowered in my relationship and business when I... " "To enhance the balance between my career and marriage, I will... " "The financial success I'm creating will positively impact my family by... " And Your Prayer Of The Week: Dear God, We thank You for the wisdom You provide us in every area of our lives, especially as we navigate the complexities of success, power, and partnership. We pray for the strength and courage to embrace our financial power and not shrink from it. Help us create a harmonious balance between our business success and our relationships, and give us the clarity to communicate openly with our partners. May we find peace in knowing that our success is a blessing for our families, and may we honor both our individual and shared roles in the relationship. Guide us to a space of mutual respect, understanding, and prosperity. In Your name, I pray. And So it Is. Amen.

Send me a text!Honoring menopause as a life stage, not just a phase to get through acknowledges the weight of this transition. We live in a society that hasn't given much room to understanding women's bodies. While there is more information now than before, there are still large gaps in support for the physical, mental, and emotional experience of menopause. Too often, women don't even begin to ask for information until we are already experiencing the challenges of shifting hormones. We turn to managing symptoms instead of caring for this pivotal transition. In this episode of Mindset Unlimited, I invited Marelda Rodrigues to join me in a conversation about honoring menopause as a life stage and yourself as deserving of care. Some of what we talk about in this episode includes:Experiencing grief in physical transitionsSocietal norms, gaps in information, and becoming an advocate for yourselfHealth and self-care look different in different phases of lifeSlowing down and making room to learn your new body LINKS TO REFERENCES MADE IN THIS EPISODE:NPR – Doctors Urge FDA to Remove Warning On Hormone Therapy for MenopauseLast Week Tonight – Make America Healthy AgainCollaborative Leadership from Boardroom to Patient-Centered Caregiving episode CONNECT WITH MARELDAWebsiteInstagram – Decide to HealInstagram – Sovereign Becoming Menopause Guide CONNECT WITH VALERIE:Ask Valerie (anonymous form)Sign up for Valerie's newsletterApply to be coached on the podcastSchedule an exploration callListen to the Unlimited Playlist This podcast was produced by Valerie Friedlander CoachingProud member of the Feminist Podcasters Collective Support the show
