We've all had that moment: working at a job we dislike, then moving to a nearly identical role at a different company, and suddenly loving it. The work didn't change, the industry didn't change, and the location didn't change. So what did? The answer is the environment. In today's Leadership Spark, we explore why employee experience has become the foundation of modern workplaces. Drawing on research, case studies, and over 150 executive interviews, I share why employee experience is not about perks, but about fundamentally changing how organizations shape the environment in which work gets done. Every employee's experience comes down to three things: culture, technology, and physical space. Organizations can't control the work employees choose to do, but they can control the environment around it, and that environment determines whether people love or hate their jobs.   ________________ Start your day with the world's top leaders by joining thousands of others at Great Leadership on Substack.

This segment from the Omni Talk Retail Fast Five, sponsored by the A&M Consumer and Retail Group, Mirakl, Ocampo Capital, Infios, and Quorso, analyzes early data from Costco's executive membership early access hours. Since implementing the extra hour of shopping from 9-10am, Placer AI data shows visits are shifting earlier, trips are becoming more efficient (30-45 minutes vs 45-60 minutes), and congestion during peak hours has decreased. Anne argues this transforms Costco from a once-a-week stock-up trip into a quick daily errand destination for millennials and young families, while Chris calls it a masterclass in operations management. With no additional staff required and executive members willing to pay for the perk, is this one of the smartest retail moves of 2025? Could this become the airport lounge problem where everyone upgrades? Chris and Anne break down the implications.

From aspiring fine artist to co-founding a groundbreaking media company and advising Fortune 500s, Cynthia Nelson's journey is one of resilience, reinvention, and relentless curiosity. With more than 25 years leading at the intersection of capital, innovation, and culture, Cynthia has proven herself a powerhouse in entrepreneurship and growth strategy.Her story begins in the unlikeliest of places: a receptionist desk at a computer repair shop in the mid-80s. From there, she witnessed the tech industry's birth, climbed the ranks at Ingram Micro, and navigated the turbulence of early startups, including a devastating betrayal by a business partner. But rather than stepping back, she leaned into every challenge, becoming one of the few Latina women to raise $15 million in private equity and ultimately selling her company Todobebé after a decade of pioneering media, parenting content, and cultural storytelling.Cynthia shares the pivotal lessons that fueled her success, from the importance of listening deeply to your customers, to the courage of saying “yes” to unfamiliar challenges, to the discipline of surrounding yourself with advisors who tell you the hard truths. She reminds us that entrepreneurship is not just about scaling fast, but about staying grounded in what people actually need, not just what founders imagine.Her reflections stretch beyond business into the deeper realities of being a woman in leadership: the sacrifices, the biases, and the double standards that continue to shape the funding landscape. Yet Cynthia's approach is one of fierce generosity, mentoring other women, championing female investors, and encouraging founders to build smarter, more sustainable businesses.This is a story of grit, creativity, and impact, and a masterclass in building with purpose. Tune in to hear Cynthia Nelson's remarkable journey and her wisdom for the next generation of women entrepreneurs.Chapters

How is it that Trump seems to have infinite power when Biden, during his trifecta, had none? Did Trump really just do what we were told is impossible: overrule the parliamentarian? Why are Democrats making this a fight about healthcare rather than the fact that the GOP has already effectively shut down the government through their DOGE activities?

The Breakdown Moment: How High Achievers Miss the Warning Signs  Do you know the signs that indicate you're near a breakdown moment? For high achievers, it's rarely obvious. We don't see it coming because we're so used to pushing through.  We normalize the stress, telling ourselves it's just this project or it's just a busy season. Or we believe that the next promotion, the next job, or the next vacation will finally make it better. But here's the warning most people miss: If you're in misalignment or you're making changes that don't solve the root cause, it's not a matter of if you'll hit the breakdown moment, it's a matter of when.  The problem for so many high-achieving leaders is the quiet normalization of exhaustion & the belief that pushing through will eventually pay off. But when you're in chronic misalignment, burnout at work isn't temporary — it's inevitable. In this episode, I share my own story of hitting breakdown three times in my career. Then my coach asked me the question that changed everything: "Blake, why are you willing to sacrifice your health and your life for a company that isn't willing to give you what you need?" That question changed everything. Logging back on to work at night to "catch up", feeling the "Sunday Scaries", asking for help but not receiving it and pushing through anyway, or waking up more drained than restored, these are all high achiever burnout symptoms signaling you're on the path to your own breakdown moment. If you're asking "How do I know if I'm headed for burnout?", this episode will give you the tools to catch the warning signs before something breaks.  Episode Highlights The 3-Question Burnout Risk Assessment  [01:15] - How to know if you're at serious risk of a breakdown moment  [01:45] - Signs of burnout most high achievers miss  [02:30] - Scores that are blazing red warning signs   My Breakdown Story [03:00] - Six months into my "dream job" & more miserable than ever  [04:15] - Crying in bathroom stalls & working till midnight  [05:30] - The Sunday Scaries & feeling trapped in an unsustainable cycle   The Question That Changed Everything  [06:45] - How my coach shifted my perspective  [07:30] - Recognizing 17+ years of sacrificing my life for my career  [08:15] - Why so many leaders reach this same breaking point   Why Burnout Cycles Get Worse Over Time  [10:00] - The gradual buildup of misalignment  [10:45] - Going through multiple burnouts [11:15] - Executive burnout signs that show you're in chronic misalignment   Powerful Quotes "The real question is, why are you willing to sacrifice your health and your life for a company that isn't willing to give you what you need?" —Blake's coach "If you're in misalignment or you're making changes that don't solve the root cause, it's not a matter of if you'll hit the breakdown moment, it's a matter of when." —Blake Schofield "The longer we stay in misalignment, it's like filling a glass higher and higher and higher with water until it spills over. We have to start reducing the water in that glass so that there's space to be able to start to create more positive momentum forward." —Blake Schofield   Resources Mentioned Drained at the end of the day & want more presence in your life?

What happens when a CEO treats thought leadership as essential as strategy? In this episode of Leveraging Thought Leadership, host Peter Winick sits down with Des Hague, an acclaimed executive who has led global brands like PepsiCo, IHOP, and Centerplate, and now advises startups, nonprofits, and private equity firms. He's also the author of "Think Your Way to the Top" and "15 Minutes of Shame", with a third book on the way. Des doesn't see thought leadership as an optional side project. For him, it's the natural extension of leadership itself—codifying the models, frameworks, and mindsets that fuel success. He shares why talent is always the starting point, how leaders must prioritize relentlessly, and why making time for writing and reflection is a choice, not a luxury. We dig into the dangers of mediocrity and entitlement, the critical role of sacrifice, and how to stay focused in a world addicted to distraction. Des's mantra, NSL—Never Stop Learning—pushes leaders to reject complacency and demand excellence from themselves and others. He also opens up about resilience, accountability, and how leaders respond to their lowest moments. Through transparency and candor, Des reframes failure as a lesson, not a life sentence. His story challenges executives to hold themselves to higher standards, embrace growth, and remain relentless in their pursuit of impact. This is an episode for leaders who want more than buzzwords. It's about discipline, clarity, and the courage to lead with integrity—even when the spotlight is harsh. Three Key Takeaways: • Thought leadership is leadership. Codifying frameworks, sharing ideas, and investing in personal development are essential for leading organizations and people effectively. • Focus and sacrifice drive results. Great leaders prioritize ruthlessly, avoid distractions, and make deliberate trade-offs to create time for what matters most. • Resilience and accountability matter. Owning mistakes, learning from setbacks, and maintaining a growth mindset separate leaders who stagnate from those who continue to make an impact. If you enjoyed Des Hague's perspective on leadership, focus, and turning ideas into impact, you'll want to dive into our episode with Will Milano. Both conversations tackle the discipline behind thought leadership—how leaders move beyond inspiration to frameworks, focus, and execution. Des shows how personal accountability and clarity shape great leadership, while Will unpacks how organizations can build a repeatable engine that scales those ideas into measurable business results. Together, these episodes give you a 360° view: the mindset of the leader and the system that powers the enterprise. Listen to both, and you'll walk away with practical insights for making thought leadership not just personal, but organizational. Listen to Will's episode here.

The federal government shut down on Wednesday for the first time in nearly seven years after Congress failed to reach a funding deal. Historically, shutdowns have proven costly for taxpayers and inconvenient for Americans who travel or rely on government services. Republican South Dakota Congressman Dusty Johnson joins the Rundown to discuss why he believes shutdowns are ill-advised and what legislation could be implemented to prevent them in the future. A new FOX News Poll shows Democrat Mikie Sherrill ahead of Republican Jack Ciattarelli in New Jersey's competitive gubernatorial race. The closer-than-expected contest in this typically loyal Blue State has both parties speculating about what its outcome might predict for the 2026 and 2028 election cycles. Daron Shaw, a Professor of Government at the University of Texas at Austin and a member of the FOX News Decision Desk, joins the Rundown to discuss why New Jersey is receiving so much attention this fall, which other races are being closely watched this year, and the challenges of polling in the modern age.Plus, commentary from FOX News Digital columnist David Marcus Learn more about your ad choices.

Healthcare is the major sticking point in ongoing shutdown negotiations, as Republicans are saying Democrats are looking to remove guardrails in the “One Big Beautiful Bill” which prevent illegal migrants from receiving benefits meant for U.S. citizens. Government funding talks have centered on a short-term spending patch through late October that has a temporary renewal of Obamacare subsidies. Meanwhile, President Trump has warned his administration could make "irreversible" changes to the federal workforce, with a new wave of fresh layoffs of government employees. FOX's Ryan Schmelz speaks with Rep. Mike Haridopolos (R-FL) who says Republicans just want to continue with spending levels the Democrats agreed to during the Biden administration.

In President Trump's second term, federal agencies are navigating uncharted territory. Two Supreme Court cases from June 2024 fundamentally changed how agencies can operate: Loper Bright ended Chevron deference—meaning courts no longer automatically defer to agencies' interpretations of ambiguous laws—and Jarkesy limited agencies' ability to impose civil penalties without jury trials.At the same time, President Trump is consolidating control over agencies that were traditionally seen as independent from the executive branch. He's fired commissioners from the FTC, NLRB, and other agencies as part of his push for a "unitary executive." Former FTC Commissioner Rebecca Slaughter is fighting her dismissal, and the Supreme Court recently allowed the firing to stand while it reviews the case.The fundamental tension? Courts are stripping power from agencies just as Trump is trying to bring those agencies under tighter presidential control. Will Loper Bright and Jarkesy make these agencies less useful tools for implementing Trump's agenda, even if he wins the fight to end their independence? And how will these cases impact the FCC's authority looks to reform its broadband subsidy programs while fighting illegal robocalls?Evan is joined by Tom Johnson, former general counsel of the FCC under Chairman Pai and now a partner at Wiley Rein.

Executives over 40 are polishing themselves into irrelevance. New résumé formats. AI-ing to death, noodling over every tweak and keyword hack. Titles that don't matter.  All distractions. And none of it wins interview momentum or the offer Here's the only question that does knowing this: “What urgent and expensive problem do you have the unfair advantage to solve?” That's not theory—it's survival math. Not urgent? You'll wait months. Not expensive? They'll nickel-and-dime you or label you as overqualified No unfair advantage? You're one of too many, and the offer goes to someone else.  But when urgency, expense, and unfair advantage collide—you're the bullseye. That's where hiring budgets unlock. That's how offers land. In this episode you'll hear: Why companies don't pay for passion or polish—they pay to stop bleeding. The 3 filters every executive must pass before they're taken seriously. How to flip the script from “what job do I want?” to “where's the fire, who's paying, and why am I holding the hose?” My own urgent + expensive + unfair advantage—and how it changes the game. If your search feels like quicksand, if your severance is dwindling, if you're sick of being overlooked—this is your pivot point. Because polish is dead weight. The bullseye is the only target that matters.   Loved the episode? Subscribe to it!

Mr Ice Cream Man (1996) was chosen by Patreon supporter Helen, and is a perfect example of the kind of deep-cut oddity that makes their way into the Year of the Stitch-Up. Directed by Mack Hail and co-written with Jim Mills, this low-budget horror outing was produced by Jeremy Settles with executive production from Hail, Mills, and Yvette Hoffman. Released straight to video, the film leaned into the 1990s boom of VHS horror, serving up a mix of camp, gore, and uneasy humor. The cast featured Henry Weckesser, Jim Mills, Cindy Reed, and even Hail himself in a supporting role.Shot on location in Las Vegas, Nevada, the film made use of everyday suburban backdrops to heighten its eerie and unsettling vibe. While it never received mainstream attention, Mr Ice Cream Man has since earned a small cult following among collectors and fans of obscure horror. Its scrappy production values and surreal tone give it that unmistakable 90s direct-to-video flavor, making it a quirky gem in the world of independent fright flicks.If you enjoy the show, we have a Patreon, so become a supporter ⁠⁠here⁠⁠.Referral links also help out the show if you were going to sign up:⁠⁠NordVPN⁠⁠⁠⁠NordPass⁠⁠Trailer Guy Plot SummaryA quiet neighborhood.

KISSEL, RUBIO, BATCHELOR The conversation between John Batchelor and colleague Mary Kissel, executive vice president of Stephens Incorporated and former senior advisor at the State Department, focuses on the quiet success of Marco Rubio as Secretary of State. Rubio is highly regarded and is very well liked across the aisle for several reasons. During his distinguished career in the Senate, he was viewed as a reasonable person who was very grounded and possessed clear principles, but who was still able to cooperate with Democrats to find common ground. In the current administration, he is seen as relatively more of a realist and a foreign policy hawk than others in powerful roles. Kissel highlights that Rubio has comported himself successfully at the State Department, establishing a stable and extremely careful administration. Notably, the administration has not seen the typical leaks of memos or complaints that the State Department bureaucracy often uses to undermine the executive floor (the seventh floor at Foggy Bottom). A specific success highlighted is the recovery of one of the hostages held by the Kabul government, the Taliban. The success of the Special Presidential Envoy for Hostage Affairs (SPEHA), who reports up to Rubio and the President, is emphasized, as protecting U.S. citizenry is considered the greatest role for the government. Finally, the President has shown significant confidence in Rubio by naming him National Security Advisorconcurrently with his role as Secretary of State.

The left is having a complete meltdown because Hegseth fat-shamed the military. Plus, the left seems very confused about who controls the executive branch, and the Supreme Court is poised to remind them.

My special guest today is Brandon Jordan of ForPsyte Talent Assessments and he's simplifying how to use executive assessments to hire smarter.

US Treasury Hoard Tops $1 Trillion For First Time  On the back of a 45% surge in the price of gold this year, the US Treasury's hoard of the barbarous relic has surpassed $1 trillion in value for the first time in history. That is more than 90 times what's stated on the government's balance sheet and is reigniting speculation that Treasury Secretary Bessent could revalue (mark to market) the massive pile of precious metal   Unlike most countries, the US's gold is held by the government directly, rather than the central bank. The Fed instead holds gold certificates corresponding to the value of the Treasury's holdings, and credits the government with dollars in return. That means, as we detailed previously, that an update of the reserves' value in line with today's prices would unleash roughly $990 billion into the Treasury's coffers, dramatically reducing the need to issue quite so many Treasury bonds this year.   Germany, Italy and South Africa all have taken the decision to revalue their reserves in recent decades, as an August note from an economist at the Federal Reserve discussed.   US gold re-marking would have implications for both the Treasury & Fed balance sheets.  US Treasury: assets would rise by the value of the gold re-marking & liabilities would rise by the size of gold certificates issued to the Fed. Federal Reserve: assets would rise by value of gold certificates & liabilities would rise by a crediting of cash in the Treasury cash balance (Exhibit 4). And here is the punchline: the Fed balance sheet impact would look like QE though no open market purchases would be required & Fed liability growth would initially be in TGA.  In other words, the best of all words: a QE-like operation, one which see the Fed quietly funnel almost $700 billion in cash to the Treasury... but without actually doing a thing! On net, a gold re-marking would increase the size of both Treasury & Fed balance sheets + allow for TGA to be used for Treasury priorities (i.e. SWF, pay down debt, fund deficit, etc). Meanwhile, the Fed and Treasury magically conjure some $990 billion out of thing air to be spent on whatever, all because the Treasury agrees that the fair value of gold is... the fair value of gold.  Source: zerohedge.com    Political/Rights
