What if everything we thought we knew about loyalty, leadership, and the future of work is about to be rewritten? In this episode of Start With a Win, Adam Contos sits down with Steve Cadigan - LinkedIn's first-ever Chief Human Resources Officer and one of the most respected minds in global talent strategy - to explore the shifting realities of today's workforce. From the rise of a restless generation to the untapped power of learning and mobility inside organizations, this conversation challenges leaders to think beyond old models of retention and success. It's a provocative look at how businesses can thrive amid constant change - and why the key to keeping your best people might be the very thing that sets them free.Steve Cadigan is a globally recognized talent advisor and founder of Cadigan Talent Ventures, a Silicon Valley firm that has worked with top organizations like Google, Intel, and the BBC. As LinkedIn's first CHRO, he guided the company through its IPO and shaped its culture, which later became the foundation for a Stanford University course.

A sought-after speaker and media expert, he frequently appears on Bloomberg, CBS, and CNBC and teaches at major universities. His book, Workquake, debuted as a #1 Amazon Hot New Release in 2021.

What if the next 90–180 days could lock in measurable customer loyalty? In this episode, we break down a practical, no-fluff playbook for building a retention strategy that customers actually value—whether you're serving consumers or complex B2B accounts.We focus on intentional success and segmentation, identifying high-value customers and the signals that predict renewal, frequency, and advocacy. Then we narrow in on the KPIs that matter most and design loyalty mechanics that make sense: points, tiers, access, bonuses, and earned surprise moments. You'll learn why swag rarely drives loyalty, how to reduce early friction with smart onboarding, and where re-engagement triggers fit when momentum slows.We compare B2C and B2B loyalty without clichés. For B2C, convenience, delight, and timely nudges win. For B2B, loyalty must support the whole account through shared benefits like premium support, admin training, success reviews, and milestone-based usage credits. Throughout, we lean on behavioral analytics, automation that enhances relevance, and a communication cadence that drives action without fatigue.To keep programs fresh, we champion co-creation and experiential innovation—inviting customers into pilots, iterating on perks, and retiring low-impact rewards fast. Ask the Disruption Day question: what will customers need tomorrow, and how can you start building it today? This mindset turns loyalty from a cost center into a growth engine. If this resonates, subscribe, share with a teammate, and leave a quick review.Resources Mentioned:Learn more about CXI Membership™ and apply -- http://CXIMembership.comOrder your copy of Experience Is Everything -- http://experienceiseverythingbook.comExperience Investigators Website -- https://experienceinvestigators.comWant to ask a question?

Learn how to scale yourself first before your business and break through leadership barriers In this episode of the Beyond Seven Figures podcast, my co-founder Stephanie Vaughan and I dive deep into the insights from our very first breakthrough summit - and let me tell you, the results were extraordinary. We brought 15 seven and eight-figure CEOs into a room for a couple of days, and every single member gave it a perfect 10 out of 10 score, with the most common feedback being that it was the most transformative CEO event they'd ever attended in their entire lives. Stephanie took them through a powerful four-part leadership assessment covering identity and fear, boundaries and burnout, beliefs and blind spots, and vision and power - proving once again that you can't scale a business without scaling yourself first. My co-founder Stephanie Vaughan is our head of coaching at Predictable Profits, and she has this incredible ability to get high-revenue entrepreneurs to look in the mirror and identify the internal barriers that are keeping them stuck in the founder's trap. What makes her approach so effective is that she doesn't let leaders get away with looking outward for their business problems - she forces them to examine their own patterns, behaviors, and fears that are directly impacting their company's growth. The transformation we witnessed at our summit was visible on their faces, and people are still buzzing with aha moments days later. KEY TAKEAWAYS: You cannot scale a business without scaling yourself first - personal development must precede business development for sustainable growth. Fear-based leadership creates artificial ceilings in business growth, while vision-based leadership opens up new possibilities for expansion. Most entrepreneurs look outward for business problems when the real bottleneck is often their own leadership patterns and behaviors. Operating from emotion rather than strategy leads to poor decision-making that limits business potential and creates reactive rather than proactive leadership. Your morning routine and personal state directly impact your business performance - starting with gratitude and intention sets the foundation for strategic thinking. Company culture should be defined by specific behavioral expectations rather than flowery language, with clear values that guide daily decisions. Hire people based on cultural alignment and fire based on cultural misalignment to maintain organizational integrity and performance. Regular self-reflection through quarterly assessments helps identify which personal habits contribute to or detract from business outcomes. Growing your business is hard, but it doesn't have to be. In this podcast, we will be discussing top level strategies for both growing and expanding your business beyond seven figures. The show will feature a mix of pure content and expert interviews to present key concepts and fundamental topics in a variety of different formats. We believe that this format will enable our listeners to learn the most from the show, implement more in their businesses, and get real value out of the podcast. Enjoy the show.

In dieser besonderen Folge des LEITWOLF® Podcasts teilt Stefan etwas sehr Persönliches: seine größten Führungsfehler – offen, ehrlich und mit dem Ziel, dass Du daraus lernen kannst. Die Aufnahme stammt von seiner Keynote beim weltweiten Procter & Gamble Alumni-Treffen 2025 in Berlin, vor über 500 Executives aus aller Welt. Unter dem Titel „Leading with Impact – Pitfalls and Tips“ spricht Stefan über die Fallstricke, in die selbst erfahrene Führungskräfte geraten können – und über die Prinzipien, die wirklich zu wirksamer Führung führen. Er erzählt von drei zentralen Learnings: - dem „Schwarzen Loch der Annahmen“, - der „inkonsistenten Selbstreflexion“ - und dem „unterschätzten Wert von Beziehungen“.

What happens when you sell your company, then buy it back to take it private again? We sit down with John Roman, CEO of Battle Brands, to unpack the bold moves behind Battle Box's rise—from a Facebook-fueled launch to an eight-figure portfolio, a high-profile acquisition, and a decisive buyback that reset the roadmap on his terms.John walks us through the early grind, the moment he left a comfortable corporate path, and the hard choices that unlocked growth: firing a non-performing partner, recruiting a top creator in-house, and making content the engine rather than a side project. We dig into why human storytelling beats hard selling, how raw behind-the-scenes moments build trust, and why community is the most defensible moat in e-commerce. If you're aiming to reduce churn and raise LTV, you'll hear how reframing “subscription” as “membership” unlocks recurring revenue with real perks, belonging, and out-of-box value that customers actually feel.Then we go deep on live shopping. After years of hype, John explains why the U.S. market is finally ready, how Whatnot differs from doomscrolling on TikTok, and what it takes to scale from a 10-hour test to 45 hours of weekly programming with multiple hosts and show runners. The playbook is fast, vertical, and emotionally driven—short attention spans, quick decisions, and high intent. We connect the dots between creator-led content, membership benefits, retention strategy, and live shopping as an always-on touchpoint that turns fans into customers and customers into advocates.If you're building an e-commerce brand, this conversation delivers practical ideas on content strategy, community building, membership design, retention levers, and the live commerce stack.

What if the toughest conversation on your calendar is the very thing that unlocks respect, growth, and retention? We sit down with leadership expert and best-selling author Jeff Hancher to demystify feedback and turn a dreaded chore into a repeatable system for building high-trust, high-performance teams.Jeff shares a clear framework for setting expectations and choosing the right feedback style for the moment: directive when safety or standards are on the line, collaborative when you need ownership from a seasoned pro, and supportive when a proven performer hits a dip. We talk through common blockers—fear of fallout, emotional reactions, and not knowing how to start—and replace them with practical language leaders can use today. You'll hear how to earn the right to be candid through steady “deposits,” why annual reviews create blind spots, and how weekly one-on-ones become the engine of engagement.Along the way, Jeff's personal story shows the power of firm feedback delivered with care. A manager who held the line and held space changed his trajectory—and his loyalty—forever. We explore how to move from people pleasing to respect, how to ask questions that reveal self-awareness, and why withholding feedback is unfair to the person and the business. Expect simple phrases, a cadence you can sustain all year, and a playbook for confident, compassionate conversations that actually change behavior.Ready to trade avoidance for impact?
