Your employees do not experience your growth plan directly. They experience whether their own future at the firm feels clear or vague. That clarity, or the lack of it, shapes retention long before compensation ever does. Many advisory firms avoid career path conversations because they fear making promises they cannot keep, so employees are left guessing at what growth actually requires. Schwab's 2025 Advisor Services research found that 77% of firms now offer career pathing and 67% offer coaching and mentorship, meaning this has moved from a nice to have to a market expectation. Ray Sclafani reveals why career pathing is really a design exercise built on skills, experience, and contribution, and why AI is quietly rewriting what every role in your firm requires next.WHAT YOU'LL LEARN IN THIS EPISODEWhy career paths should be built on skills, experience, and contribution rather than tenure or personalityHow AI is shifting the value of roles like associate advisor toward judgment, interpretation, and client insightHow to build a credible one page career path for a single role using six simple sectionsTHE CAREER PATH DESIGN FRAMEWORKSkills- Every role needs technical skills, relational skills, judgment skills, and communication skills defined clearly. For an associate advisor that might mean planning software and tax awareness alongside listening, follow through, and knowing when to escalate.Experience- People grow by doing harder things with support, not by reading role descriptions. A future lead advisor needs to lead parts of a client meeting. A future manager needs to coach someone. Experience is the bridge between potential and readiness.Contribution- A larger role should require a larger contribution, measured through client impact, team leadership, business development, mentoring, or culture. Promotion should be based on evidence, not tenure.AI Fluency- As AI takes over meeting notes, drafting, and data organization, the human value in each role shifts toward better questions, judgment, tone, and interpretation. Career paths need to train toward that shift, not ignore it.REFLECTION QUESTIONS FOR YOUR LEADERSHIP TEAMWhere do employees have a job description but no visible growth map?What experiences should become required before someone moves into a larger role?How will AI change the skills required for each career path in your firm?Which roles in your firm are being held together by personality and memory instead of clear structure?If a high performer asked you tomorrow what their next two years could look like, could you answer with specifics?Building the Billion Dollar Business is hosted by Ray Sclafani, Founder and CEO of ClientWise, the financial services industry's leading executive coaching and team development firm for elite advisors and wealth management teams.

This episode features Quinn Beekwilder, assistant professor and coordinator of Belmont Abbey College's Motorsport Management program, who shares his path from a political science degree and real estate to graduating from the program, working a decade at Charlotte Motor Speedway, and returning to teach. He recaps the program's origins with Belmont resident and Charlotte Motor Speedway leader Humpy Wheeler, created to reduce industry turnover by preparing students for motorsport's demanding realities. Once NASCAR-centric, the curriculum now spans global disciplines, emphasizes motorsport history, and requires multiple internships and experiential trips (Rolex 24, IndyCar St. Petersburg, World of Outlaws, PRI). Belmont Abbey has grown to 60+ undergraduates, launched the nation's first fully online M.A. in Motorsport Management with 20+ first-semester students, started the Accelerate Abbey high school summer camp, and received Colonel Donald Capps' motorsport collection for its library. ===== (Oo---x---oO) ===== 00:00 Meet Quinn Beekwilder 01:25 Quinn's Career Path 02:16 Why Motorsport Education? 03:32 Program Origins with Humpy Wheeler 05:26 Degree Growth and Expansion 06:27 Broadening Beyond NASCAR 07:58 Teaching History and Context 09:40 First Masters of Arts in Motorsport Management 11:47 "Accelerate Abbey" Summer Camp 13:13 Don Capps Collection Donation 14:31 Alumni Network in Action 16:42 Experiential Trips and Internships 19:10 Building the Full Ecosystem 20:02 What's Next and Thanks ==================== The Motoring Podcast Network : Years of racing, wrenching and Motorsports experience brings together a top notch collection of knowledge, stories and information. #everyonehasastory #gtmbreakfix - motoringpodcast.net More Information: Visit Our Website Become a VIP at: Patreon Online Magazine: Gran Touring Follow us on Social: Instagram This episode is part of our HISTORY OF MOTORSPORTS SERIES and is sponsored in part by: The International Motor Racing Research Center (IMRRC), The Society of Automotive Historians (SAH), The Watkins Glen Area Chamber of Commerce, and the Argetsinger Family - and was recorded in front of a live studio audience.

In this episode of The Spear, host Charlie Faint sits down with the command team of the 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment, Colonel Sean Karrels and Command Sergeant Major Julio Santos, for a conversation about the people, leadership, and culture behind the Night Stalkers. Drawing on decades of experience in Army aviation and special operations, the two discuss their paths into the regiment, what the 160th looks for in its soldiers and leaders, and why teamwork, disciplined initiative, accountability, and mastery of the fundamentals remain central to its success. They explore how the regiment practices mission command, learns from failure, maintains demanding standards, and balances technological innovation with the tactical skills required to operate in the world's most challenging environments. Looking toward future conflicts, they also discuss artificial intelligence, autonomous systems, contested operating environments, and why the regiment's greatest advantage remains its people. Throughout the conversation, Sean and Julio return to a defining idea of the culture in the 160th: Night Stalkers don't quit.

He traces his own path into law school back to that mindset and names the three fears that keep people locked in: thinking in worst-case scenarios, believing they could not do anything else, and worrying what others think. His takeaway is that time is on your side at work the same way it is in the market.

I'm not an AI hater, I ship with these tools daily and I think they're genuinely fun to use. But I've also watched "customers don't care about the code" turn into an excuse for engineers to stop thinking entirely, and that's how you end up with 5,000 lines nobody can explain, a catastrophic bug in prod, and Claude cheerfully saying on the way down.Let's explore ways to maintain quality software without becoming a "meat proxy"

Live from ILTACON | Sponsored by Steno What if the next path for a lawyer isn't the traditional path to partnership? Live from ILTACON, David Cowen sits down with Megan McMillin, Legal Innovation Partner at Harvey, to explore one of the most important shifts happening in legal: the emergence of an entirely new career ladder around Legal AI. From Forward Deployed Legal Engineers to Legal Innovation Partners, firms and technology companies are building roles that combine legal expertise, workflow knowledge, technology and client value. The challenge? There is no established playbook yet. In this episode: Why Forward Deployed Legal Engineers are becoming an important new role Why firms need internal experts working alongside vendor engineers The power of combining legal workflow expertise with technical expertise Why successful AI implementation requires understanding the "why," not just the tool What it really means to embed AI talent inside a law firm How Forward Deployed Engineers could progress from building to managing, leading and setting strategy Why Legal AI could create a second career path for lawyers Why firms need to stop treating these roles as "off track" What law schools and firms need to rethink about developing future lawyers Why intellectual curiosity may be one of lawyers' greatest advantages in the AI era Chapters 00:10 | From Cleary to Legal Innovation Partner at Harvey 01:23 | The Rise of the Forward Deployed Legal Engineer 02:10 | Why Firms Need Their Own Embedded AI Expertise 03:18 | Pairing Vendor Engineers With Firm Experts 03:46 | Understanding the Tool, the Workflow and the Why 04:17 | Moving From AI Use Cases to Client Value 05:15 | Why Legal AI Isn't "Choose Your Own Journey" 06:04 | What Embedded AI Talent Really Means 07:09 | Building With the Customer, Not Just for Them 08:21 | The Five-Year Career Path for Forward Deployed Engineers 09:20 | Could Legal AI Become a Second Path to Partnership? 10:16 | Why New Legal AI Roles Command New Compensation 10:46 | There Is No Clear Career Path Yet 11:51 | Stop Trying to Fit New Roles Into Old Structures 12:37 | What Law Schools Need to Rethink 13:41 | The Lawyer's Superpower in the AI Era 14:36 | Why Intellectual Curiosity Matters More Than Ever The Career Signal There is no clear path. It's white space. It's a green field. That's exactly what makes this moment so important. The Legal AI career ladder is being built in real time. You can enter as a builder. Then manage. Then lead. Then set strategy and vision. For lawyers who don't see themselves following the traditional route to partnership, these roles may represent something much bigger than an alternative career. They may be the beginning of an entirely new path. And as Megan puts it, when lawyers and engineers bring their respective expertise together: "The best is yet to come. And we're building it together." Follow SOLID for more conversations with the leaders shaping what comes next in legal: https://solid.legal/

What happens when the path in front of you makes perfect sense, and you know it is no longer yours? After 10 years in the Navy as an MH-60R helicopter pilot and aircraft commander, Zach Rodriguez had an obvious next move: commercial aviation. It would have been lucrative, respected, predictable, and easy to explain. He chose something else. Today, Zach is the founder of Outlive Financial Planning, a fee-only fiduciary firm helping high-income millennials and families align their time, health, and money so they can live well now while planning wisely for later. But this episode is about more than a career pivot. It is about recognizing the thread running through a life that can look disconnected from the outside. Zach's story includes surviving a helicopter crash landing, navigating financial instability early in life, watching his father face cancer, becoming deeply interested in health and longevity, studying soil science, becoming a father, and eventually questioning what accumulating wealth is actually for. None of those experiences appeared to belong together. Until they did. In this conversation, we explore the difference between manufacturing differentiation and integrating the story that is already yours. Zach shares how his seemingly unrelated experiences became the foundation for a financial planning philosophy centered on resilience, intentional living, risk, family, health, and the finite nature of time. We also challenge one of the most common assumptions in traditional financial planning: that the goal is simply to save as much as possible for someday. Because building wealth matters. But so does knowing what the wealth is for. If you are standing at the edge of a career transition, questioning a path that still works but no longer fits, or wondering how the different chapters of your life connect to the work you are here to do, this conversation may help you see your own story differently. In This Episode, You'll Discover: Why the most logical next career move may not be the right one Why reclaiming control of his time became a defining career decision What surviving a helicopter crash taught him about risk, resilience, and the value of time Why health and longevity became inseparable from his philosophy about money The danger of accumulating wealth without asking what that wealth is actually for Why "live well now, plan wisely for later" challenges traditional retirement thinking How seemingly random interests and career chapters can reveal a much larger pattern Why authentic differentiation is often discovered through integration and not invented through messaging Get your free 3-part video series on "The Parts of Your Financial Plan Most Advisors Skip" https://outlivefinancial.com/your-passion-purpose-personalbrand-podcast CONNECT WITH ZACH Website: https://outlivefinancial.com/  TikTok tiktok.com/@truewealthzach LinkedIn (personal) linkedin.com/in/zachdrodriguez YouTube youtube.com/@TrueWealthZach Instagram instagram.com/truewealthzach X (Twitter) x.com/zach_rod CONNECT WITH LISA LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lisa-mcguire/ Website: https://lisamcguire.com/ Diagnostic: Successfully Stuck: The First Truth Kit: https://go.lisamcguire.com/first-truth-kit  ArchitectHer Website: https://architecther.org  Bonus: Mention that you heard about ArchitectHer on this podcast and receive a complimentary one-hour Identity Integration Session with Lisa upon enrollment in the ArchitectHer experience.

The bookkeeper hiring model is changing. AI, rising employment costs and the disappearance of traditional entry-level work are making it harder for a bookkeeper practice to hire and train the next generation. In this episode, I explore why work experience matters, where qualifications fall short, and how every bookkeeper can rethink training in a world where new hires are expected to add value faster. Whether you're hiring, training or building your career as a bookkeeper, this is a problem the profession needs to solve. The future of the bookkeeper workforce starts with giving people the experience they need to succeed.

There's no perfect timeline for figuring out your life. But when everyone around you seems to be moving forward, it can be difficult to believe you're not falling behind.In this episode I sit down with film producer Jeremy Walton to explore why there is no normal path through life, and why starting a new chapter later than expected doesn't mean you've taken the wrong one.Jeremy came to filmmaking after a career in law, finance and venture capital. Rather than regretting the years he spent elsewhere, he believes those experiences helped prepare him for the work he eventually found himself doing.We talk about why there is no formula for building a career, how overwhelm can stop you from ever beginning, why making something imperfect can be more valuable than waiting until you're ready, and why success doesn't have to mean the same thing for everyone.But underneath the filmmaking, this conversation is about something much more universal: the pressure to know where your life is going, the fear that you should be further ahead, and what can happen when you stop measuring yourself against an imaginary timeline.Jeremy Walton is a film producer at Moo Studios, where he works across film and television development, finance and production. He describes filmmaking as his “second chapter” - one he says he wouldn't go back and start any earlier.Timestamps: (00:00) Introduction: No Normal Timeline(00:52) Jeremy's Career Pivot(02:59) Creativity and Film Community(05:01) EQ Matters on Set(06:42) Getting Your First Script Made(09:29) Know Your Audience(13:42) Originality vs Commercial Reality(16:23) Compromise in Filmmaking(21:18) Write for Budget and Practice(25:57) Overwhelm and Finding Producers(28:17) YouTube and Content Explosion(31:15) Buyers Market Reality(32:03) Budgets Race Down(32:29) Obsession Lessons(35:31) Defining Film Success(38:00) Career Paths in Film(40:30) No Normal Budget(42:07) Microbudget Proof(44:39) Actors Survival Tips(49:13) Ego Free Collaboration(51:45) Industry Future and AI(54:18) Advice to Younger Self(56:22) Where to Find MoreJoin the Move Your Mind Community:go.nickbracks.com/mymcommunityConnect with Nick:Instagram: https://instagram.com/nickbracksWebsite: http://nickbracks.comEmail: contact@nickbracks.comConnect with Jeremy:https://www.moostudios.com/ Hosted on Acast.

Let's talk about your career. Because for a lot of people right now, work feels shaky. Maybe you've been laid off, applied for dozens of jobs with no response, or you're quietly wondering whether your current career path still makes sense. The rules have changed. AI is reshaping jobs. Hiring technology is filtering candidates before a human ever sees them. And the traditional corporate ladder feels more and more, totally and utterly disconnected from reality. So, how do you stay grounded through the uncertainty? And how do you build a career that can evolve with you? My special guest today is Mike Peditto and he's simplifying how to rethink your job search + career path.   Here's the truth. None of us knows exactly what the job market will look like next. But we can get smarter about how we navigate it. You'll learn why mass-applying isn't working, what actually helps you get noticed in an overcrowded job market, and how to remain in demand as work continues to change. Let's simplify it.

The career path you were sold is on life support. AI is taking the entry level reps that used to build judgment, and the leaders caught in the middle are the ones who have to answer for it. This one is an audible. A listener wrote in after the last episode and pushed back on Dr. Chris McAlister: if wisdom takes time, experience, and scars, how does a generation get those reps when AI can already do the work? Chris and co-host Mark Stanifer set the notes aside and stay in that tension. Why yesterday's skills go the way of farming. Why the one rep that still matters is noticing your own thinking. Where Chris disagrees with Seth Godin about how few people you can get away with. And the simple one, two, three a leader can bring to their team this week, without pretending to have the answers.

As a young person, it is okay to not know what you want to do. There is a lot of pressure placed on teenagers to know what they want their careers to look like, but how does one know what they want to do, and how they want to do it?  In this episode of This Teenage Life, Stella, Jayden and Lydia explore questions around meaningful work. What does "meaningful work" mean? How does one balance financial responsibility, familial and societal pressure in chosen career paths? Is it realistic to find joy in one's work in this day and age? Through conversations with the current teens on TTL, friends and family, and established people in her career of interest, Stella, the college student on This Teenage Life reflects on her own journey in finding a career path that feels meaningful to her. 

Micro-credentials sound small until they change what you can do with your hands and what you believe you can do in a real lab. We sit down with Hannah, a Northeastern bioengineering student with a strong interest in neuroscience, to unpack how early, hands-on synthetic biology training helped her move from “no lab experience” to doing serious research work with confidence.Hannah walks us through her neuroradiology internship and the practical skills behind the title: maintaining a brain cancer cell line, using histological staining and immunofluorescence, working with microscopy, and analyzing images in Fiji/ImageJ to quantify results. We also talk about the realities of research training, including why getting certified matters, how mistakes happen (and what you learn from them), and what it looks like to step into more responsibility over time.We then rewind to her BioBuilder Apprenticeship Program experience, where wet lab skills like micropipetting, serial dilutions, PCR, and gel electrophoresis become measurable micro-credentials. Hannah explains how those certifications didn't just help her land opportunities, they helped her feel steady in the room once she got there.The conversation ends with the bigger mission: She Does STEM, Hannah's outreach initiative focused on mentorship, resources, and community for first-generation, low-income, and female students navigating an uneven system. If you care about STEM education, women in STEM, mentorship, or how to get research experience early, this one is for you. Subscribe, share with a student who needs a boost, and leave a review with the skill you wish you'd learned sooner.Learn more about BioBuilder's programs for students, educators, and industry professionals here

The next generation of financial advisors and leaders are not asking for a job, they're asking for a future. Ray Sclafani explores why career pathing has evolved from a nice-to-have benefit into the most critical retention lever advisory firms have. Drawing on Deloitte's 2025 research showing only 6% of Gen Z and Millennials prioritize reaching a leadership position, Ray unpacks what ambition actually looks like today: growth, meaning, money, well-being, and a thoughtful pace of development.For advisory firm owners and leaders, the implications are direct. A firm with no clear development path doesn't stand still, it falls behind. This episode provides a five-part framework for building career pathways that work. Ray then shares a practical starting point: a single career conversation in the next 60 to 90 days that changes how your people feel about their future with your firm.The firms that provide honest visibility of a future worth building will retain more top talent, develop better leaders, and build more durable businesses.WHAT YOU'LL LEARN IN THIS EPISODEWhy the next generation defines ambition differently and what that means for retention strategyHow to define roles with clarity and purpose so every position has a visible pathwayThe single biggest mistake firms make when building career paths and how to avoid itWhy addressing AI's role impact directly is now a core part of career developmentHow to eliminate ambiguity around partnership so people stop guessing what it meansTHE FIVE-PART CAREER PATHING FRAMEWORKDefine the Roles. Establish clear purpose, expectations, and required skills for each position. Map progression pathways for advisors (from client service associate to enterprise leader), operations (specialist to enterprise operator), and leadership (people manager to executive leader).Define the Progression. Specify what it takes to move from one role to the next: technical skills, client relationship management, leadership capabilities, business development expectations, decision rights, and cultural behaviors. Specificity builds trust.Connect to Actual Development. Attach real development objectives to each progression step. Identify specific competencies that need improvement, not vague hopes. The manager's job is connecting today's work to tomorrow's opportunity.Address AI's Impact. Clarify which skills become more valuable (empathy, judgment, planning, decision making, communication, relationship leadership) and commit to training people to use AI responsibly. Don't let people wonder alone.Make Ownership Expectations Clear. Define passages to partnership, distinguish between producing and nonproducing partners, clarify income versus equity partnership, and spell out what business development, client retention, leadership, and enterprise thinking mean for ownership.REFLECTION QUESTIONS FOR YOUR LEADERSHIP TEAMCan every high potential employee at your firm see a future worth working toward?Where are career paths clearly defined, and where are they implied but not yet documented?Which roles will AI reshape first? And how are you preparing your team for that shift?Who needs a development conversation before they start taking calls from another firm?RESOURCES MENTIONEDDeloitte 2025 Gen Z and Millennial SurveySchwab 2025 Career Pathing ResearchCFP Board Career Pathway ResourcesClientWise Business Builders Academy™ClientWise Executive Coaching and Team DevelopmentBuilding the Billion Dollar Business is hosted by Ray Sclafani, founder and CEO of ClientWise, the financial services industry's leading executive coaching and team development firm for elite advisors and wealth management teams.Find Ray and the ClientWise Team on the ClientWise website or LinkedIn | Twitter | Instagram | Facebook | YouTubeBuilding The Billion Dollar Business

Your best person is sitting in their role right now doing excellent work. And somewhere in the back of their mind, whether on the commute home, in the quiet after a long meeting, or in the gap between one task and the next — they're asking a question they haven't said out loud to you yet. Where does this actually go? Not philosophically. Practically. What is the organization doing — specifically, deliberately — to help them reach it? In most organizations, the honest answer to that question is silence. Not because the leader doesn't care. Because nobody ever drew the map. And your best people won't wait indefinitely for a map that never arrives.

If even the letters "A-I" are enough to spike your anxiety, this episode is for you. In this conversation, host Bill Burke sits down with Dr. Mark Bloomfield — a Cambridge Judge Business School fellow who has spent over 15 years applying artificial intelligence to real business challenges, long before ChatGPT made it a household name.  Marc's career is a story of reinvention: a colorblind teenager whose dream of flying gave way to a PhD with Airbus, and eventually to advising boards at companies like Vodafone, Unilever, and Pfizer on their AI transformation. Along the way, he's developed a refreshingly grounded, optimistic philosophy about how everyday people can engage with AI — starting small, staying curious, and using these tools to amplify what makes us human rather than replace it.  From treating AI anxiety like a fear of flying, to his weekly "AI amnesty" walks, to raising AI-savvy kids ("water always finds a way — so train them to become a plumber"), Mark offers a practical, hopeful roadmap for a technology that isn't going anywhere.  In this episode:  Why getting started with AI on something small and familiar builds confidence and literacy  How to avoid "metacognitive laziness" and use AI to sharpen — not outsource — your thinking  The honest truth about AI and jobs, and why human skills may become the real differentiator  What "the uncertainty advantage" means, and the four lessons piloting through turbulence teaches us  How to raise kids who use AI intentionally without losing the value of learning on their own  Why governance, trust, and transparency are the keys to AI that benefits society    Chapters: 00:00 Introduction to Mark Bloomfield 02:04 Career Path and Aviation 05:24 The Evolution of AI 09:46 Approaching AI with Optimism  15:08 Using AI to Enhance Humanity 19:09 AI's Impact on Jobs and Governance 25:01 Untold Stories and Future of AI 29:21 The Uncertainty Advantage 32:30 Building and Using Voice Agents 38:08 Parenting in the AI World 42:29 Conclusion and Resources 

Many people in this country don't have access to reliable financial guidance — so they're increasingly asking a free chatbot instead. The problem? A general-purpose model trained on Reddit threads inherits Reddit's appetite for risk, and now that skew shows up in the conversations people are having about their money. In this new episode of One Vision Podcast, Alisha Chowdhury, Founder of Kiro Money, joins Theodora Lau to argue that the same technology, pointed with different intentions, can do the opposite: close the advice gap instead of widening it.Alisha traces the origin of Kiro back to a socioeconomically diverse Bangladeshi community in New Orleans — the "aunties and uncles" who taught her immigrant parents how to navigate an unfamiliar financial system — and to the University of Pennsylvania, where she saw real wealth and learned how it's built for the first time. After years as an investor at Vanguard and in private equity, she left for an MBA in London and started building the earliest version of Kiro: a low-code, RAG-based coach fed only sources she trusted. "Not garbage in."Today Kiro is an embedded financial intelligence layer that lets a bank or investing platform drop a context-aware AI coach directly into its own app, so users get guidance where their data and their relationship already live. A conversation about financial inclusion, the advice gap, and what it takes to build AI for money that people can actually trust. Because when it comes to money, trust has to be earned — and tested.

What happens when the role that once fit perfectly starts feeling a little too small?In this episode, Tracy sits down with Beth Welch, a PA whose career journey has taken her from trauma and critical care medicine into executive healthcare leadership, innovation, and systems-level impact.Together, they explore what it feels like to step away from traditional clinical practice, navigate the identity shifts that come with career growth, and embrace opportunities that don't always fit the expected path.They discuss:Why careers are more like jungle gyms than laddersThe hidden leadership skills clinicians develop every dayInfluence without authorityBurnout and career evolutionThe transition from bedside clinician to executive leaderSystems thinking and healthcare innovationFinding purpose beyond a job titleHow clinicians can create impact at scaleWhether you're considering a non-clinical role, exploring entrepreneurship, or simply feeling called toward something bigger, this conversation offers both practical insights and permission to evolve.Key takeaways1. Roles Are Static. People Are Dynamic. Many clinicians experience discomfort not because they're in the wrong profession, but because they've grown beyond the role they're currently occupying.2. PAs Are Built for Leadership Adaptability, communication, systems thinking, collaboration, and problem-solving are skills clinicians practice every day—even when they don't recognize them as leadership skills.3. Influence Doesn't Require Authority. Some of the most impactful leaders aren't the people with the highest title—they're the people who consistently move projects, people, and ideas forward.4. Burnout can be a Positive Catalyst For many clinicians, burnout becomes the signal that something needs to change—not necessarily medicine itself, but how they engage with it.5. Career Paths are Rarely Linear The most fulfilling careers often look more like a jungle gym than a ladder, with lateral moves, pivots, experiments, and unexpected opportunities along the way.Bethany Welch http://bethanywelch.com/ Clinician Entrepreneur Collective www.tracybingaman.com/waitlist

Miki Feldman Simon, is an executive coach, speaker, and the author of CORE Leadership: A Four-Step Framework to Lead Yourself, Grow Your Influence, and Amplify Your Impact.Miki's perspective on people, performance, and what it really takes to lead effectively across different environments was shaped by two different lenses. First, a wide range of leadership roles, including marketing, operations, and HR leadership in companies that went through successful mergers and acquisitions. Second, growing up in multiple countries and cultures: from Israel to Australia to the United States.In our conversation, we explore how our assumptions shape the way we lead, the importance of understanding what a role really looks like before committing to it, and why many of us operate on autopilot more than we realize.We also dive into her CORE leadership framework—Clarify, Operationalize, Reflect, and Evaluate—and how it helps leaders move from reactive habits to intentional action. Along the way, Miki shares powerful personal stories and practical examples from her coaching work that bring these ideas to life.Contact Dino at: dino@al4ep.comWebsites:mikifeldmansimon.comal4ep.comAdditional Guest Links:LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/mikifeldmansimonInstagram: @mikifeldmansimonFacebook: facebook.com/miki.feldmansimonAuthentic Leadership For Everyday People / Dino CattaneoDino on LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/dinocattaneoPodcast Instagram – @al4edp Podcast Twitter – @al4edpPodcast Facebook: facebook.com/al4edpMusicSusan Cattaneo: susancattaneo.bandcamp.com
