Why CCOs Are a Company's Secret Weapon with Charley Johnson (episode 386) "If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more, and become more, you are a leader.” – John Quincy Adams Check Out These Highlights: Leadership is so much more than a title, such as CEO, CFO, or EVP. I have seen great leaders who have no title at all; they care deeply, show up big every time they arrive at work, and inspire others to do the same. Inspiring your team and growing their skills is truly the job of great leaders.  Yet, I see it all the time, where our corporate leaders, especially in large companies, have lost sight of the human perspective, and it's all about shareholder value. Shareholders are essential, yet not at the cost of the people who create the profit. So what are we doing wrong? About Charley Johnson: Charley has 20+ years in corporate as a business owner, 7 years in non-profit as the president of the Pay it Forward Foundation, and 10 years with an enlightened teacher. The combination of these three things creates a unique set of skills that will be crucial for companies and their employees moving forward. He is working to bring the position of Chief Consciousness Officer to the forefront of the business world and into all companies.

Send us a textWe explore the groundbreaking concept of the Chief Consciousness Officer with Charlie Johnson, examining how this emerging role could transform businesses, politics, and human development by accessing the fundamental consciousness that underlies everything.• Consciousness should be recognized as everything, not just a spiritual concept – it encompasses physical and non-physical reality, business, politics, and personal development• The mind is merely the "middleman" that creates division by forcing us to choose sides, while consciousness is the neutral source of everything• Chief Consciousness Officers will become as essential to organizations as Chief Technology Officers, helping companies access broader perspectives beyond division• Our beliefs and perspectives are largely shaped by conditioning rather than objective truth – where you're born largely determines your political and religious views• Social media has become more addictive than drugs, causing us to check our phones "like crack addicts" while presenting a carefully curated self-image• Artificial intelligence isn't actually artificial – it's a product of human consciousness that we're now fearing despite using AI-driven conveniences daily• The path forward requires neutrality and expanded awareness rather than continuing the same divisive approaches that have failed throughout human historyConnect with Charlie Johnson on LinkedIn to learn more about the Chief Consciousness Officer role and how it could help your organization or personal development.Support the showFollow your host atYouTube and Rumble for video contenthttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUxk1oJBVw-IAZTqChH70aghttps://rumble.com/c/c-4236474Facebook to receive updateshttps://www.facebook.com/EliasEllusion/Twitter (yes, I refuse to call it X)https://x.com/politicallyht LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/eliasmarty/

This week, we discuss the career of Charley Johnson; continue with our reasons why Harold Jackson should be in the HOF; the best NFL players born in Germany; the underrated Paul Krause, and bad passing and bad Astroturf. Quotes of the week (couldn't pick between them): 1) I'll take a seven man sled over a tractor; and 2) If you are dumb enough to step on the end line, and you're still willing to tangle with some guy coming at your throat, be my guest." 

Show Notes: In this thought-provoking episode of the Breakfast Leadership Show, I sit down with Charley, a visionary leader whose personal and professional evolution exemplifies what it means to lead with awareness and purpose. We begin by exploring Charley's roots—his upbringing in Utah, a deeply unique religious foundation, and the life-shaping mentorship of a profoundly enlightened teacher. These early experiences ignited Charley's pursuit of understanding across multiple spiritual traditions, laying the groundwork for his future leadership role as a Chief Consciousness Officer (CCO). The Rise of Conscious Leadership Charley and I delve into why organizations today need to make the shift from reactive, unconscious practices to intentional, conscious operations. As a CCO, Charley champions the integration of awareness into business strategy—helping companies move away from performative wellness and toward environments where authenticity, compassion, and clarity are the norm. We also confront a critical workplace issue: burnout. Charley shares how burnout often stems from misalignment—between values, leadership clarity, and wellness initiatives that lack true depth. A CCO's role? To dismantle those barriers and build bridges of understanding, trust, and open communication. Overcoming Bias and Reframing Organizational Dynamics Together, we unpack the dangers of preconditioning and unconscious bias in hiring and leadership. Charley underscores the value of objective insight—approaching workplace challenges without a fixed agenda, but with curiosity and humility. As I share from my own consulting work, the best transformations often begin when we ask deeper questions and truly listen to the answers. Spiritual Intelligence in the Workplace We talk about the need for companies to embrace a broader view of employee potential—including their spiritual and personal growth. Consciousness, as Charley describes, isn't a woo-woo concept—it's a powerful, untapped resource for innovation, connection, and long-term success. My Personal Story: Reducing Turnover with Intentional Listening I share a powerful story from my own leadership journey—reducing turnover at a healthcare clinic not through quick fixes, but by fostering real dialogue. When I shifted from telling to asking—Why do you choose to work here? What would you change if you were in my shoes?—I created space for honesty, collaboration, and a wave of positive change led by the employees themselves. Creating Cultures That Thrive Charley and I agree: when organizations invest in people's growth—when leaders actually listen and allow ideas to flourish—magic happens. I highlight a real example of a former receptionist who rose to lead a clinic, all because the culture encouraged growth over conformity. Charley rounds out the discussion by offering a global perspective. He believes we're in the midst of a deep, planetary shift—not just economic or environmental, but spiritual and personal. Old paradigms won't cut it anymore. What we need now are guides—like CCOs—who can help individuals and organizations navigate this new terrain with grace and resilience. What's Next: Conscious Shifts and the Future of Leadership In the closing moments, Charley speaks to the future: generational shifts, rising consciousness, and even the possibility of contact with civilizations beyond our own. It's a bold, expansive view—but one rooted in his mission to awaken humanity, one organization at a time. This conversation is a must-listen for leaders, change-makers, and anyone curious about the intersection of spirituality, consciousness, and business.

Largely because the industry is full of BS and does not benefit the consumer. I started creating videos on how finance worked through being honest and authentic about the financial system does to people.I quickly realised that the people wanted authenticity but yet the existing financial system did not benefit people for being authentic. The advertising model of the corporations had it's fingers in everything and did not benefit your average on guy on the street.So I decided to build Creatria a social commerce application that put the financial control back in the hands of its creators and users rather than the big tech advertising model. If listeners want to understand how much the financial system is crippling our lives, lowering our consciousness and be introduced to a new system which puts the people first, I know I would provide an interesting conversation and insight.https://ae.linkedin.com/in/nathanmcfarlanehttps://www.creatria.app/----------------------------------When It Worked Podcasthttps://getoffthedamnphone.com/podcast

Hi, it's Charley, and this is Untangled, a newsletter about technology, people, and power.Last week, I published an essay about what humans can do that AI systems cannot. One such thing? Meaning making! So what would it look like to put meaning-making at the center of AI product development? That's the conversation I had with Vaughn Tan, professor at University College London's School of Management, who writes the great newsletter The Uncertainty Mindset. We discuss:* What's at stake in shifting the question from “Can AI systems produce outputs that look like outputs from humans,” to “What can humans do that AI systems cannot?”* Meaning-making: what it is, the different types, and why it matters.* How to center meaning-making in AI product development.* What makes for a good question — and how to start asking better ones in the context of AI.Okay, that's it for now.Charley Get full access to Untangled with Charley Johnson at untangled.substack.com/subscribe

The concept of Pay it Forward dates back to ancient Greece in 317 BC. The model was used as a key plot element of the play Dyskolos, (a title which can be translated as "The Grouch") by Menander. His work was lost in the Middle Ages and the theory was rediscovered by Benjamin Franklin and described in a letter below to Benjamin Webb dated April 25, 1784. “I do not pretend to give such a Sum; I only lend it to you. When you [...] meet with another honest Man in similar Distress, you must pay me by lending this Sum to him; enjoining him to discharge the Debt by a like operation, when he shall be able, and shall meet with another opportunity. I hope it may thus go thro' many hands, before it meets with a Knave that will stop its Progress. This is a trick of mine for doing a deal of good with a little money.” Charley Johnson is an entrepreneur and former Owner/Executive V.P. of a Manufacturing company with over 250 employees has a deep passion for Pay it Forward. Believing in Pay it Forward so much so he left his company, career & millions behind to change the world and how people view humanity.
