What if you could lead organizational change the same way revolutions overthrow regimes? Today on Leveraging Thought Leadership, Peter Winick sits down with Greg Satell—co-founder of ChangeOS, bestselling author of "Cascades: How to Create a Movement That Drives Transformational Change", and one of the world's top experts on transformational change. Greg doesn't just talk about change—he's lived through it, from leading media organizations during the Orange Revolution in Ukraine to building practical frameworks used by today's largest corporations. Greg shares why traditional change management often fails and how organizations can instead harness the power of movements. Drawing from real-world revolutions and network science, he explains why resistance is predictable, why change requires collective action, and how to create sustainable, culture-driven transformation that sticks. He also breaks down the tools and models behind his work—like the Resistance Inventory and Cultural Trigger Mapping—and why building evangelists inside your organization is critical to long-term success. If your team is struggling with change fatigue, inertia, or lack of alignment, Greg's insights offer a radically different way forward. This episode is packed with sharp, actionable frameworks for CEOs, CHROs, transformation leaders, and fellow thought leaders alike. If you're looking to drive change that actually lasts—this conversation is a must-listen. Three Key Takeaways: • Change is a people problem, not just a strategy problem. Successful transformation requires shifting beliefs and behaviors—not just processes or structures. • Resistance is predictable—and manageable. Most change initiatives fail because they don't identify or plan for resistance. A resistance inventory helps leaders anticipate and navigate pushback. • Lasting change spreads like a movement. True transformation requires internal evangelists who influence their networks, making the change sustainable beyond any one leader or initiative. If Greg's episode sparked your interest in how movements drive lasting change, you'll want to explore our conversation with Urvashi Bhatnagar on Implementing Niche Solutions at Scale. Both episodes dive into the challenge of turning big ideas into sustainable results—whether it's building cultural momentum for transformation or scaling specialized solutions across complex organizations. Urvashi's insights on aligning niche innovations with organizational structures complement Greg's frameworks for overcoming resistance and creating internal evangelists. Together, these episodes offer a powerful blueprint for leaders who need to drive change that sticks and scales.

“Businesses are wasting more money than they're making.” This stark assessment from serial entrepreneur Paul Polizzotto frames a provocative question: what if procurement's greatest untapped opportunity lies not in negotiating better prices, but in redirecting the millions corporations already squander on ineffective sales and marketing spend? In this episode of "Buy: The Way...To Purposeful Procurement," Paul Polizzotto, founder of Community AI and former CEO of EcoMedia (which was sold to CBS), joins co-hosts Philip Ideson and Rich Ham to explore how procurement can transform transactional moments into powerful engines for social impact - without paying a penny more for goods and services. Paul's track record speaks for itself: at EcoMedia, he redirected over $600 million of incremental advertising revenues toward community projects, powering solar installations on schools and city halls (including making Miami's City Hall the first major municipal building powered entirely by renewable energy), while making CBS more profitable. The secret? Tapping into the 10-30 percent of gross revenues that Fortune 500 companies routinely waste on ineffective SG&A expenses. The conversation reveals a fundamental misunderstanding about social impact procurement.  While procurement teams worry about paying extra for "do-good" initiatives, Paul demonstrates how suppliers can fund meaningful community projects from their existing – and often wasteful – advertising, marketing, and event budgets. These are dollars that currently provide zero value, yet can be redirected to create measurable local impact while strengthening supplier relationships. As Paul notes, 92 percent of CEOs surveyed by BCG believe that embedding social impact in procurement significantly elevates the function's importance and relevance within their organizations. If procurement seeks to demonstrate value beyond traditional cost savings, community impact offers a measurable, strategic pathway to C-suite relevance.   Links: Paul Polizzotto on LinkedInRich Ham on LinkedInLearn more at FineTuneUs.com

What if everything you believe about success is actually slowing you down? In this conversation with Dr. Benjamin Hardy, we get real about why most people aren't achieving at the level they're capable of—and how to flip that. I told Ben right at the top of the show: our last interview turned heads. The kind of feedback we got—from everyday entrepreneurs all the way up to CEOs of billion-dollar companies—was off the charts. This one picks up where we left off and goes straight into the truth about scaling your business, your mindset, and your life. Dr. Hardy breaks down why the goals you're setting might be too safe—and how that safety is the very thing killing your growth. We talk about setting what he calls “impossible goals” with unreasonable timeframes, not because they're flashy, but because they strip away every single thing that's slowing you down. “False goals create intensity,” he says, and that's where most people get stuck. The real key? Letting the future—not your past—shape your decisions today. I open up about my own realizations. I thought I was a future thinker. Turns out, I was still leaning on the past more than I realized. And if you're scaling anything beyond just yourself, that mindset's got to shift. We get into what it really takes to lead with conviction, how to simplify your systems, and why being radically honest with yourself is the start of all exponential growth. This episode isn't just theory—it's the real talk you need if you're tired of playing small. If you've been stuck in complexity, distracted by too many paths, or trying to do five things at once, this one's going to hit home. Ben says it best: “We're kept from our goal not by obstacles, but by a clear path to a lesser goal.” That'll preach. Key Takeaways: Why short timeframes eliminate all the false paths The difference between bold goals and truly impossible goals How to stop lying to yourself and simplify your system What it takes to scale beyond yourself—and why most never do How to develop unshakable conviction and operate as a signal in a noisy world Listen now, and get ready to start thinking and executing in a whole new way. — Max Out

Your thoughts on the kiss-cam episodeAndrew Ross Sorkin's note yesterday about Andy Byron, the C.E.O. of a tech start-up caught on camera with a colleague from H.R. at a Coldplay concert, struck a nerve with DealBook readers, who have flooded our inbox with responses: “The moment seems to encapsulate the pervasive schadenfreude within our culture, especially our office culture, and a deep-seated animosity toward bosses and colleagues,” Andrew wrote. “It highlights a zero-sum mentality in which a colleague's success is perceived as your loss, and their failure your gain.” He added that, “The incident also underscores our surveillance state.”Here's what readers had to say:“The surveillance state is a bit aggressive of a take on this. They were lovingly embracing at a concert during a love song while the kiss cam was on the prowl.” — Bob McMurtry“The public is not just reacting to someone else's misfortune, it is reacting to the utter hypocrisy revealed yet again by those in power who dictate rules that others should follow, yet arrogantly disregard following them themselves. Employees endure hours of H.R. training on the impropriety of workplace relationships, especially between manager and subordinate, yet the actual HEAD of H.R. engages in an affair with her married C.E.O. Do you not see the specific irony of this outing?” — Jim Woidat“I don't think we commoners' resentment of C.E.O.s is so much about jealousy as it is about pay inequality (their pay rate today vs. what it was a few decades ago) and stuff like golden parachutes.” — Tom EshbaughWhat nobody is talking about:Before the kisscam: 12 executives (11 men and Chief People Officer Kristin Cabot); 6 directors (all men)They've also disabled their LinkedIn links and yetAstronomer board launches investigation after viral Coldplay 'kiss cam' video appears to show CEO embracing HR chiefDealBook Hot Take: Board members should be licensedJonathan Foster, a consultant and former managing director at Lazard, has served on more than 50 corporate boards. Along the way, he says, he has encountered directors who have stayed too long, or ones whose “knowledge of financial statements and M&A is lacking.” He drew on that experience in “On Board: The Modern Playbook for Corporate Governance,” his new book.One of his big ideas for improving director performance: “a license,” he told DealBook, like the kind required “for investment bankers, doctors, lawyers, even massage therapists.”That, he said, “might increase confidence in corporate directors.”How it would work: Some of the requirements Foster envisions include 10 years of work experience, being at least 35 and passing an exam covering legal standards, basic accounting and finance principles, and ethics. “It doesn't have to be particularly onerous,” he said, comparing it to the Series 7 exam for financial advisers.To issue licenses, he says, the New York Stock Exchange could oversee an organization like Harvard Business School or the National Association of Corporate Directors. He says he sees the arrangement as akin to how the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board operates under the authority of the S.E.C. That independent nonprofit group, he noted, “has commissioners, and they go do their thing, but they're ultimately responsible to and can be pre-empted by the S.E.C.”Is it workable? DealBook asked Edward Rock, a professor of corporate governance at the New York University School of Law. He said he worried that standardized requirements for diverse companies could disqualify board members with otherwise strong attributes. For example, he wrote in an email to DealBook, “Why would anyone want to prevent Mark Zuckerberg (28 at the time of Facebook's I.P.O.) or Larry Page and Sergey Brin” — both in their thirties when Google listed — “from serving on the board of directors of Facebook and Google?”(Foster said exceptions could be created, including for founders.)Shareholders have an incentive to demand the most qualified board members, Rock continued, and they tend to do so.Coca-Cola will roll out cane sugar version of namesake soda in the U.S. this fallPrivate jet sales are poised for takeoff thanks to a revived tax breakA federal tax change now lets companies write off the full cost of buying a private jet in year oneStarbucks' formerly remote CEO has bought a home in Seattle and he's ordering all staff back to the office 4 days a week Jeff Bezos taps former Amazon Alexa head to lead $10 billion Earth fundElon Musk's other companies could soon pour billions into his AI startupSpaceX, the rocket company Musk founded and controls, is reportedly investing $2 billion into xAI, his AI startup best known for the chatbot GrokElon Musk promises Tesla shareholders a vote over buying equity in his Grok startup: ‘If it was up to me, Tesla would have invested in xAI long ago'Musk's xAI faces European scrutiny over Grok's 'horrific' antisemitic postsElon Musk's AI chatbot Grok is now working with the federal governmentElon Musk's Neuralink filed as 'disadvantaged business' before being valued at $9 billionOpenAI warns that its new ChatGPT Agent has the ability to aid dangerous bioweapon developmentA Staggering Proportion of Teens Say Talking to AI Is Better Than Real-Life FriendsElon Musk announces Baby Grok AI chatbot designed specifically for children's learning needsTelegram CEO Pavel Durov on French probe against Elon Musk's Twitter: “at this point, any tech company can be declared a ‘criminal gang' in France".

What happens when we see our individual struggles reflected in humanity's collective crises? How does our individual healing create collective healing? This week, Thomas shares why we need to unearth the trauma that's deeply entrenched in our societies and cultures so that it can be processed, integrated, and transformed into growth. We may be familiar with this process in our own healing journey—now it's time to do the work as a collective. Thomas explores a technique that he calls “systemic sensing,” a way of feeling through archaeological and ancestral layers to bring regulation to the collective nervous system as we reckon with global challenges. This episode is an invitation to be a part of a global detox—a difficult but essential process that can generate post-traumatic learning, development, and even flourishing.   ✨ Click here to watch the video version of this episode on YouTube:

Small business owner Jennifer Kok opened her cookie business and delivered her second daughter just two days later—literally delivering babies and cookies on the same day. After running her business for 20 years and experiencing everything from bounced paychecks to franchise success, Jennifer now helps overwhelmed entrepreneurs transform into confident CEOs without burning out on social media. In this raw and honest conversation, Jennifer shares the real statistics behind small business failure (spoiler: they don't fail, they quit). She reveals the predictable pattern that causes entrepreneurs to walk away right before their breakthrough. From managing cash flow crises to building your personal board of directors, this episode pulls back the curtain on the messy middle of entrepreneurship. It provides actionable strategies for pushing through the plateau. If you've ever felt isolated in your business, questioned whether you're cut out for entrepreneurship, or wondered how to pay yourself properly, this episode offers both practical solutions and the emotional support every business owner needs to hear. What You'll Learn Why 50% of small businesses actually quit rather than fail, and how to avoid becoming part of that statistic The predictable pattern that hits entrepreneurs around year 3-4 and how to navigate "the messy middle" How to build your personal board of directors with five specific types of advisors The critical difference between working in your business versus working on your business How to conduct a business breakthrough strategy, starting with your numbers Why profit margins matter more than revenue and how to calculate what you're really earning How to find your micro audience and unique differentiator without fear-based thinking Cash flow management fundamentals that prevent payroll crises The mindset shifts that separate successful entrepreneurs from those who quit   This episode features Jennifer Kok, a business coach with 25 years of entrepreneurial experience who literally delivered her baby and cookie orders on the same day she opened her business. Jennifer challenges the common belief that small businesses fail, arguing instead that they quit, particularly around the 3-4 year mark when entrepreneurs hit what she calls "the messy middle." The conversation covers Jennifer's journey from corporate America to cookie business owner, including a humbling moment when she had to put payroll on a credit card during a family vacation. This crisis became a turning point that led her to master business fundamentals and eventually help other entrepreneurs avoid similar pitfalls. Key insights include the importance of building a personal board of directors (comprising five specific types of advisors), understanding profit margins over vanity metrics such as revenue, and developing systems for working on your business rather than just in it. Jennifer emphasizes that entrepreneurial challenges aren't character flaws but navigation points toward better systems. That isolation kills more businesses than a bad strategy. The episode explores the psychological aspects of entrepreneurship, highlighting the interconnection between personal and business growth, and provides practical strategies for financial management, targeting micro-audiences, and maintaining confidence during challenging periods.

This action by the federal government threatens roughly $65.8 million in Title X funds and implicates an estimated 846,000 patients. It has resulted in massive layoffs, stopped contracts, mental strain, and confusion for both employees and patients. As patients are not receiving the care they need due to a stop in funding, possible results could include rising rates of unintended pregnancies, rising rates of STIs, poorer maternal health outcomes, and later diagnoses of breast and cervical cancers.  We sit down with CEOs and executive directors of some of these impacted organizations, including: Stephanie McDowell, Executive Director of Bridgercare in MontanaAyana Bradshaw, President and CEO of AccessMatters in PennsylvaniaAmy Moy, Co-CEO with Essential Access Health in California and HawaiiSupport the showFollow Us on Social: Twitter: @rePROsFightBack Instagram: @reprosfbFacebook: rePROs Fight Back Bluesky: @reprosfightback.bsky.social Email us: jennie@reprosfightback.comRate and Review on Apple PodcastThanks for listening & keep fighting back!

Daniel Brady is the Co-CEO of Orita, a software company that improves email deliverability. As a neuroscientist turned data scientist, he has helped leading e-commerce brands organize their data sets. Daniel has also worked with CEOs, CTOs, and other leaders to build eCommerce companies. In this episode… Email marketing promises big returns, but many brands unknowingly sabotage their success. They blast generic campaigns, over-segment based on recency, and trigger inbox fatigue that leads to declining engagement, retention, and revenue. How can e-commerce brands rebuild trust, retain overlooked buyers, and turn emails from a cost center into a compounding asset? Neuroscientist turned machine learning strategist Daniel Brady has developed a behavior-driven approach to email marketing. By analyzing long-term customer behavior beyond recent clicks, brands can use intelligent segmentation to both reduce email volume and boost conversions. Daniel recommends recategorizing inactive subscribers, validating leads before sending campaigns, and treating email engagement as a dynamic two-way relationship. He also emphasizes the importance of rethinking post-signup flows, preventing deliverability spirals, and aligning marketing cadence with buyer behavior. Join William Harris in today's episode of the Up Arrow Podcast as he chats with Daniel Brady, Co-CEO of Orita, about turning email marketing into a scalable, intelligent revenue driver. He explains how neuroscience informs strategic audience segmentation, the impact of acquisition on retention, and how to adapt as you scale.

This episode is powered by Dinner with Darnyelle “Your business and your income will never exceed your identity.” – Dr. Darnyelle Jervey Harmon Let's be real: if you're still waiting for confirmation to walk into the next level of your calling, you've already delayed your destiny. Embodiment isn't optional—it's the command. In Genesis 1:28, God didn't say do fruitful things; He said, be fruitful and multiply. That's where overflow starts—not in a funnel, not in another hack, but in your ability to be the version of you that already holds the millions you're praying for. In this episode, Dr. Darnyelle unpacks the embodiment shift every Legacy-Led CEO must master to sustain and scale without grinding themselves into spiritual bankruptcy. If you've been hustling from an old identity while declaring a new reality, this episode will confront every excuse that's been keeping you from the life and business God designed for you. Your next level isn't activated by effort. It's unlocked by embodiment. You'll walk away with the clarity to identify where you've been leaking power, practical embodiment practices to elevate your identity, and the courage to make decisions as the CEO you were born to be—not the one you've outgrown.. Here's the truth: You don't get what you want—you get who you are. And if you're still operating from the self-concept that built your last level, you'll never hold your next one. Embodiment is how you collapse time. Until you fully BE, your millions will stay in theory. Grab your Move to Millions Podcast Notebook, a pen and your favorite beverage and listen in to discover: ✔ How to practice identity-based decision-making to align with your next level ✔ How to embody your seven-figure self now—even before the money shows up ✔ How to integrate spiritual and somatic practices to hold overflow without overwhelm ✔And so much more This episode is a call to stop performing and start becoming. To let go of last season's confidence and embody the woman or man God already sees. It's time to stop whispering your value, undercharging your worth, and waiting for permission. Walk like it's already yours—because it is. This is your invitation to press pause on the endless doing and drop into being. To anchor into your anointing and move from that posture so that your strategy finally has the spiritual scaffolding it needs. This is about building a business that flows from identity, not insecurity.

What does the seven-figure version of me know that I keep doubting? Where in my life am I still performing instead of embodying? How would my pricing, posture, and presence shift if I fully believed it was already mine? What boundaries would my next-level self hold that I'm still negotiating? Want more of Darnyelle?

MALITTA SEAMON is the author of “Mindset Freedom: Seven Steps to Unlock Your Power In Life, Love, and Leadership”, a business strategist, coach, author, speaker, and trusted adviser to CEOs, C-suite executives and leaders. She co-founded Inbound Leadership to help unlock untapped potential for greater impact by fostering safe spaces for leaders to reflect, be vulnerable, a=]d grow—her true passion. Malitta says,“When women feel drained at work or at home, we often blame ourselves for taking on too much or not finding “balance.” But what if the real reason we're running on empty is that we're constantly contorting ourselves—shrinking, bending, over-accommodating, and over-delivering to meet other people's expectations?” For years, that's exactly what Malitta did.While building an eight-figure business with her husband, Brad Seamon, and raising a family, she continually adjusted and overperformed to meet roles and standards defined by others. Until the cost of contortion became too high. The business hit a breaking point—and so did her marriage. In the fallout, Malitta finally asked herself a question too many high-achieving women avoid: What would it look like to lead without apology—and live without shape-shifting? We talk about: Why women feel pressure to contort—trying to “make it work” at their own expense. The subtle but powerful signs that you're bending too far. The real cost of chronic self-adjustment—emotionally, professionally, and relationally. Why chasing “balance” keeps us stuck—and what to pursue instead. How to stop the cycle of self-betrayal and start leading with clarity, courage, and authenticity.

In today's episode of the Second in Command podcast, Cameron breaks down the misunderstood and often misused role of the Chief Operating Officer. Drawing from both personal experience and established research, he uncovers how the COO is not a one-size-fits-all title—it's a role that shifts depending on the needs of the CEO and the stage of the business. With anecdotes from his own time at 1-800-GOT-JUNK and references to thought leaders in the field, Cameron explores how many leadership titles are incorrectly handed out, and why defining the true second in command begins with understanding the personality and skill gaps of the CEO.The conversation dives into seven key archetypes of COOs, from executors and change agents to mentors and MVPs—each fulfilling a unique function within a company. Whether serving as a stabilizing force in turbulent times, guiding a young founder through explosive growth, or acting as a public-facing counterpart to an introverted CEO, the COO's impact is always rooted in complementing leadership. Cameron also explores the often unseen dynamic of the CEO-COO relationship, likening it to a marriage where balance, trust, and mutual respect drive real progress.This episode shows that the role of the COO is anything but static; it's a powerful, adaptive force that, when aligned correctly, becomes the backbone of growth, execution, and sustained success.If you've enjoyed this episode of the Second in Command podcast, be sure to leave a review and subscribe today!

But unless you speak fluent Wall Street, these reports can feel like they're written in another language. Today, we're translating. Nicole breaks down what an earnings report actually is, why it matters, and how to read between the lines of those buttoned-up earnings calls.
