Send us a textWhen was the last time you heard a positive story about what happens inside America's jails? For most of us, these facilities only make headlines when something goes wrong—an escape, a use-of-force incident, or a facility failure. But as Major Shaun Klucznik reveals in this compelling conversation, corrections professionals save lives, change futures, and demonstrate extraordinary leadership every single day, largely without recognition.Major Klucznik's remarkable journey from a 19-year-old corrections cadet to the 45th President of the American Jail Association offers a window into how corrections work and builds exceptional leaders. Starting at $5.60 an hour in 1997, he rose through the ranks while witnessing the profession's transformation. His pivotal role in transitioning Hernando County Jail from private to public operation showcases the complex management challenges correctional leaders navigate."Every position is a position of leadership," Klucznik emphasizes, noting how correctional officers develop crucial skills managing challenging situations with minimal resources beyond their communication abilities. This crucible of leadership development explains why so many officers become community leaders outside work—coaching youth sports, leading religious programs, and serving their communities.The conversation delves into the critical role Field Training Officers play in shaping agency culture, the need for transparent communication with the public about both successes and failures, and how leadership philosophies like Jocko Willink's "Extreme Ownership" create empowered, accountable correctional teams. Klucznik also addresses the profession's fight for recognition as first responders, noting correctional officers are first on scene for suicide attempts, medical emergencies, and facility crises.Whether you work in corrections or simply want to understand this essential but often invisible profession, this episode provides invaluable insights into the leadership, professionalism, and dedication that define America's correctional workforce. As Klucznik powerfully argues, corrections isn't a stepping stone—it's a legitimate career where professionals make life-changing differences every E-mail Shaun at shaunk@aja.orgAmerican Jail Association https://www.americanjail.org/Mentioned by Shaun - Extreme Ownership: How U.S. Navy SEALs Lead and WinAlso, check out Michael's newest book - POWER SKILLS: Emotional Intelligence and Soft Skills for Correctional Officers, First Responders, and Beyond PepperBallFrom crowd control to cell extractions, the PepperBall system is the safe, non-lethal option.OMNIOMNI is cutting-edge software designed to track inmates and assets within your prison or jail.

The Dad Edge Podcast (formerly The Good Dad Project Podcast)
Have you ever asked yourself: "How do I teach my kids accountability when I'm not always perfect myself?" "Does admitting my mistakes actually make me a weaker dad?" "What does it truly take to build unbreakable trust with my children?" If these questions resonate, get ready for a raw and honest conversation that dives deep into one of the most vital lessons dads can teach: extreme ownership. Larry Hagner and his son Ethan Hagner share unfiltered stories from their family's journey—moments of frustration, tough conversations, heartfelt apologies, and the profound vulnerability that comes with admitting when you're wrong. Together, they explore why modeling accountability as a father doesn't diminish your credibility; it fundamentally builds trust and earns lasting respect. Become the best husband and leader you can: www.thedadedge.com/mastermind In this powerful conversation, we dig into: The Counterintuitive Power of Apology: Larry recounts difficult parenting seasons, including struggles with anger and the immense pressure to be a "perfect" dad, and how genuine apologies transformed those moments. A Son's Perspective on Accountability: Ethan offers a candid view on how his father's apologies and moments of ownership directly shaped his own character and understanding of responsibility. Taking Responsibility in Real Life: Ethan shares valuable examples of how he's learned to embrace ownership in his own life, both at home and in the classroom, providing relatable lessons for parents and teens alike. Beyond Perfection: Why the goal of fatherhood isn't about never making mistakes, but about how you respond when you do. Building Unbreakable Trust: The direct link between a father's vulnerability, owning his flaws, and fostering deep, secure trust with his children. This episode delivers authentic wisdom and reassurance, reminding every dad (and future dad) out there that perfection isn't the goal—connection and growth are. Here's what research and observation highlight about parental accountability and child development: Children whose parents model admitting mistakes and apologizing have 40% higher levels of empathy and a stronger sense of personal responsibility. Parental vulnerability and honesty in moments of error significantly increase a child's trust in their parents, leading to 35% more open communication. Adolescents with fathers who consistently practice accountability show a 25% lower likelihood of engaging in risky behaviors. www.thedadedge.com/alliance www.1stphorm.com/dadedge www.thedadedge.com/mastermind

As we remember the lives of those lost on this Memorial Day, revisit some of Will's best conversations with four retired Navy SEALS reminding us of the values and virtues that come from a life of service. First, in an excerpt from his appearance with Will last Thursday, Mike Sarraille, retired Navy SEAL and Host of FOX Nation's 'The Unsung Of Arlington,' shares the stories of a handful of American heroes you may not have heard. Will is then joined by retired Navy SEAL, Co-author of ‘Extreme Ownership' and ‘The Dichotomy of Leadership,' & Host of the ‘Jocko Podcast,' Jocko Willink to discuss how discipline is the path to freedom, to always take responsibility for your own actions and failures, and much more. Retired Navy SEALs, Bill Brown & Jason Redman, then share about their successful march with military special forces veterans on Washington, D.C. in support of then Secretary of Defense nominee Pete Hegseth and why it was so important to stand up for someone who stands up for the war fighters.

In dieser Folge des Einfachkomplex-Podcasts tauchen Alexander Blunk und Gregor Vollmer-Fuchs tief in das Thema „Chefsein“ ein. Vom ersten Mitarbeiter über Delegation und Prozessklarheit bis hin zu Fehlerkultur und Kündigung – die beiden Unternehmer geben persönliche Einblicke in ihren Führungsalltag. Was heißt es wirklich, Verantwortung zu tragen? Wie gelingt gute Einarbeitung? Und warum ist Führung auch immer ein Spiegel für eigene Schwächen? Außerdem: Warum man besser keine Freunde einstellt, wann ein Team wachsen sollte – und was „Extreme Ownership“ mit moderner Führung zu tun hat.
Episode 087 – Leading Through Chaos, Carrying the Burden, and Knowing When to Walk Away In this episode of the JP Dinnell Podcast, JP and Lucas deliver one of their most transparent and hard-hitting conversations yet — tackling what it means to lead when the burden gets heavy, the mission gets messy, and the relationships around you start shifting. Coming off a powerful FTX leadership training event, JP shares behind-the-scenes lessons on clarity under chaos, how most leaders fail when pressure hits, and why leadership isn't just about serving others — it's about protecting your standards, your team, and your time. They also dig into the hard truth about relationships: not everyone can go where you're going, and sometimes, leadership means cutting ties with people who don't align with your mission — even if they're good people.
“You go do your thing—I've got this.” The words every CEO wants to hear. It means the job will get done – no excuses!. That's real ownership—not just doing tasks but taking full responsibility for results, owning the outcome. But can you teach that mindset? In this episode, we get straight into extreme ownership—what it means, how it shows up in high-performing executives, and why it separates the top 5% from the rest. In today's talent market, where every hire needs to be strategic, accountable, and fast-moving, ownership is non-negotiable. We cover: Why ownership means relieving your boss of mental overhead How to move from reactive to proactive leadership What hiring managers really look for in executive candidates Why tracking activity (yes, still) matters How true leaders handle career and financial decisions How to recognize—and reject—blame culture And yes, we take on the sacred cow of “relationship selling” and why it might be killing your sales team's performance.

Jordan B Peterson Podcast Key Takeaways No one starts strong, powerful, and confident; these are skills that must be developed and honed throughout life Better questions illuminate the path to a better life: By asking someone earnest questions, you confront your ignorance while also inviting them on an adventurous and playful journey of collaboration As a leader, the best approach is to bring your team with you on the journey of discoveryPay attention to your enemiesThey may reveal truths you would otherwise overlookIn their objections to your worldview, they may shed light on something that you could have done more effectively To enable decentralized command, leaders must rapidly develop subordinates into collaborative problem-solvers: the more decision-making ability is pushed down the ranks, the more agile and effective the organization becomes in a changing environment Hire super-competent people and offer them a thrilling deal so they are maximally motivated Leaders should seek distributed competence, not control: an effective manager makes himself irrelevant as quickly as possible Pay attention to the problems that cry out to you; it could be your destiny to solve that problem “If you punish the source within you that gives rise to ideas, it will stop producing ideas.” – Jordan B Peterson Make being creative the victor over all the competing temptations of lifeEnact discipline in your life so that your internal creativity can prevail The best leaders align their vision with their followers' interests; they inspire action by making others want to contributeRead the full notes @ podcastnotes.orgDr. Jordan B.

In this short segment of the Revenue Builders Podcast, we revisit the discussion with Marcello Gallo, CRO at Sigma Computing, tackling one of the most critical and misunderstood phases of complex enterprise sales: procurement. They dissect the challenges of "separation of church and state," the pitfalls of weak champions, and the importance of owning the final stretch of the sales cycle with confidence, conviction, and clarity of value.KEY TAKEAWAYS[00:00:25] Understand “Separation of Church and State”: Champions often step back during procurement. Plan for it, but don't surrender the deal.[00:01:33] “Participate in Your Own Rescue”: Teach champions to fight for the value they believe in—even through procurement.[00:03:15] Extreme Ownership is Non-Negotiable: Blaming procurement delays is a weak excuse. Elite sellers own the entire process.[00:04:00] Know the Negative Consequences: It's not just about the pain — it's about what happens if the problem doesn't get solved now.[00:05:54] True Champions Have Power and Influence: They actively sell on your behalf and are invested in your success. Anything less is not a real champion[00:06:38] Elite Sellers Multiply Champion Power: The best reps elevate their champions inside the account. It's not seller vs. buyer—it's a partnership.QUOTES[00:01:54] “You can't get alligator arms during procurement. If this is what you want delivered, you have to participate in your own rescue.”[00:03:35] “Extreme ownership means the deal is yours. No excuses. If procurement's dragging, you didn't plan it right.”[00:04:59] “Without understanding the negative consequences, you can't drive urgency — and urgency drives deals.”[00:05:54] “A true champion has power and influence, is actively selling on your behalf, and has a vested interest in your success.[00:07:02] “If a rep's saying, ‘It's us versus them,' you're in trouble. It means you never had a real champion to begin with.”Listen to the full conversation through the link below.https://revenue-builders.simplecast.com/episodes/scaling-high-growth-companies-with-marcello-galloEnjoying the podcast?

In this episode of The JP Dinnell Podcast, JP and Lucas sit down for the most raw, unfiltered conversation they've ever had. Over the course of one week, they faced a series of unimaginable events—a tragic death, a violent murder, and a spiritual confrontation with evil. In the midst of it all, they were forced to lead others, support their families, and show up when everything inside them wanted to break. This episode isn't about tactics or strategy. It's about faith in the fire, the burden of leadership, and what it means to carry others through darkness when you yourself are hurting.

Send us a textFreedom arrives in an unexpected package: the realization that no one is coming to save you. This liberating truth sits at the heart of Jordan Edwards' powerful five-minute Value Bomb that might just transform how you approach everything in your life.Drawing from Jocko Willink's concept of "Extreme Ownership," Jordan challenges us to embrace radical accountability – not just for our obvious choices, but for everything that touches our lives. This mindset shift eliminated his tendency to blame others and revolutionized his approach to challenges. When you claim ownership of your circumstances, you simultaneously claim the power to change them."You are the driver of your own life," Jordan reminds us with passionate conviction. This isn't about self-blame but self-empowerment. The path to authentic living begins when we stop waiting for rescue and start taking control. The accountability muscle might be uncomfortable to develop at first, but it builds the genuine self-confidence needed to create lasting change.Jordan delivers this message in a concentrated five-minute format designed for those who need transformative ideas without lengthy explanations. His parting question lingers long after listening: "What are you upset about and what have you not taken control of?" The answer could be the first step toward the life you truly want. Remember, you can make a decision and change anything at any moment – what will you choose to change today?

I FOUGHT IN RAMADI – Navy SEAL JP Dinnell Reviews "Warfare" (2025) JP Dinnell breaks down the new movie @A24 movie Warfare by Ray Mendoza about the task unit that relieved TU Bruiser in Ramadi. In this powerful episode of The JP Dinnell Podcast, JP delivers a raw, emotional, and brutally honest review of the 2025 war film “Warfare”, co-directed by Alex Garland and former Navy SEAL Ray Mendoza. But this isn't just another reaction video — JP Dinnell actually fought in the same battle space as depicted in the film. While most people see Warfare as a gripping, cinematic portrayal of urban combat in Ramadi, Iraq, JP lived it. He was part of Task Unit Bruiser, the most decorated special operations unit of the Iraq War, serving alongside warriors like Jocko Willink, Leif Babin, Marc Lee, and Michael Monsoor. His team was operating in Ramadi in 2006, directly before Alpha One, the SEAL unit depicted in Warfare, took over that area of operations. This review is more than just technical commentary — it's a glimpse into the real-world chaos, decision-making, emotion, and leadership that happened in those exact streets.

In this enlightening episode of the Millionaire Car Salesman Podcast, host Sean V. Bradley, joined by Dealer Synergy's Director of CRM and Technologies, Jonathan Schrieber, delves deep into the intricacies of Customer Relationship Management (CRM) systems in the automotive industry. The discussion highlights the evolving roles within the dealership environment and the crucial importance of CRM systems as a cornerstone for modern automotive businesses. The episode begins with an exploration of Jonathan's extensive background, emphasizing the value of his varied experience from education to high-ranking dealership roles and through to his tenure at LotPop. "I fell in love with the CRM because you can't hide from it. You either do or you don't." – Jonathan Schrieber Throughout the episode, Sean and Jonathan stress the significance of effectively leveraging CRM systems to ensure dealership success and growth. They explore common shortcomings and strategies for enhancing CRM processes, from setup and employee training to AI integration with tools like Podium AI. "Information without application is just information. Information with application equals transformation." – Sean V. Bradley Key insights include the necessity of customizing CRM processes to align with dealership specifics, promoting accountabilities such as making CRM usage a condition of employment, and the underutilized potential of CRM in reducing dealership dependency on expensive third-party lead providers. During the conversation, the seamless integration of AI with CRM systems is identified as a vital step towards optimizing customer engagement and dealership efficiency. "The hardest part about this job is just getting customer engagement." – Jonathan Schrieber Key Takeaways: ✅ The seamless integration of CRM systems with AI holds significant potential to enhance dealership efficiency, especially beyond regular business hours. ✅ Customized CRM processes are vitally important for the unique needs of each dealership, particularly in managing the lifecycle of leads from various sources. ✅ Proficient use of CRM can dramatically reduce unnecessary expenditure on third-party lead services by maximizing existing databases. ✅ Consistent training and management accountability are essential to encourage proper CRM use by employees, enhancing dealership profitability. ✅ Innovative applications of AI within CRM not only streamline dealership operations but also improve customer engagement and management decision-making processes. About Jonathan Schrieber Jonathan Schrieber is a seasoned automotive professional with over 20 years of diverse experience in the industry. Jonathan is a graduate of the NADA University and has held various pivotal roles, including Internet Director and GSM. His career spans several key areas, including sales, service, parts, and management in dealerships, which provided him a holistic understanding of automotive operations! Jonathan currently serves as the Director of CRM and Technologies at Dealer Synergy, where he leads initiatives to maximize dealership efficiency and customer relationship management globally. His expertise has been honed further through a significant tenure at LotPop, where he analyzed and enhanced dealership processes across the country. Mastering the Art of CRM Integration: Strategies for Automotive Dealership Success Key Takeaways: Outsourcing and AI integration are pivotal for thriving CRM strategies. Comprehensive CRM training is essential for maximizing dealership potential. CRM is not just a tool but a culture that needs top-down commitment and execution. Innovative CRM Strategies for Automotive Dealerships The landscape of the automotive industry is rapidly evolving, with customer relationship management (CRM) as a linchpin for success. As dealerships strive to sell more cars, customer engagement remains the hardest part of the job. The introduction of AI and dedicated call centers has revolutionized how dealerships manage leads and customer interactions. Sean V. Bradley, president of Dealer Synergy, underscores the importance of CRM by stating, "One of the biggest challenges that I keep hearing from dealers across the United States is, man, I don't have enough people." Outsourcing is a game-changer in this context. By expanding their operations across three countries, including Belize and the Philippines, Dealer Synergy leverages skilled agents ensuring no customer is left unattended. This operational efficiency not only addresses the perennial complaint of insufficient staffing but also enhances customer engagement through continuous, round-the-clock service. Such strategies allow dealers to focus more on profitable engagements, rather than scrambling to maintain their current workloads. The advent of AI, especially solutions like Podium's AI BDC, amplifies this strategy. Podium's Jerry provides 24/7 lead conversion powerhouses, engaging customers even after hours. "Meet Jerry Podium's new AI BDC. Jerry is a lead conversion powerhouse designed to respond instantly to every incoming lead," offers a practical glimpse into leveraging technology for superior customer management without direct human intervention. Such integrations streamline processes, ensuring a smooth handover to human staff without disrupting customer interaction. The Importance of Robust CRM Training and Processes While sophisticated tools and AI are invaluable, the human factor remains central to CRM success. Dealerships often overlook thorough training for their teams, leading to suboptimal use of available technology. Jonathan Schrieber, an automotive veteran and Director of CRM and Technologies at Dealer Synergy Global, emphasizes the need for a sound training structure. "I think the hardest part about this job is just getting customer engagement," he echoes, highlighting how a well-trained staff is instrumental in overcoming this challenge. Schrieber's personal journey from the floor of a dealership to overseeing CRM at an executive level underscores the value of comprehensive training and experienced leadership. His background in every facet of the dealership—from driving a parts truck to handling finance—shows how familiarity with all processes enriches CRM strategy and execution. His insight into the importance of analytics ensures that dealership's sales, service, and parts departments align seamlessly, fostering an environment where CRM is not just a database, but a dynamic tool driving meaningful customer interactions. Training should not simply involve checking off a list. Instead, it requires ongoing commitment from all levels of management. "It's not what you preach, it's what you tolerate," a quote from Extreme Ownership as referenced by Schrieber, encapsulates the idea that CRM proficiency must be embedded in the dealership's culture. Overcoming CRM hesitance requires robust leadership that practices what it preaches, making CRM compliance and training a non-negotiable part of dealership operations. Elevating CRM from Tool to Cultural Cornerstone The successful execution of CRM strategies stretches beyond technology and tools; it requires a paradigm shift in how dealerships perceive CRM. Sean V. Bradley advocates for viewing CRM as fundamental to dealership operations, not just an optional tool. "Information without application is just information. Information with application equals transformation," he states, urging dealerships to transform data into actionable insights. Transitioning CRM from a supportive tool to an operational cornerstone involves aligning AI, human resources, and backend processes. The trifecta approach—human resources, CRM automation, and AI—ensures all dealership functions operate synergistically. When set up correctly, these elements prevent duplicate efforts and ensure smooth customer interactions. Achieving this integration requires a commitment to cleanliness and optimization of existing CRM processes. As Schrieber advises, "The first step…is just clean up and optimize what you do have first." By eliminating redundancies and enhancing process flows, dealerships can fully leverage AI capabilities, ensuring customer interaction fidelity and real-time engagement. Crafting a future-proof CRM strategy in the automotive industry necessitates a blend of advanced technology, diligent training, and a cultural shift in CRM perception. As experts like Schrieber and Bradley illustrate, converting CRM from a task-driven utility to an integral cultural component is crucial. This ensures not only enhanced customer experiences but also maximizes profitability in an increasingly competitive market. Through embracing technology, fostering comprehensive training, and committing to a culture of accountability, dealerships can thrive in the complex ecosystem of modern automotive sales.

“It wouldn't surprise me. No, it would be exciting.”That was Adam Ante's initial response when asked if five years from now, he could imagine himself still in the C-suite—but not as a CFO. The comment seemed to linger in the air, hinting at a deeper current in his career journey. Ante, who had led Paycor through an IPO, a pandemic, and most recently, a $4.1 billion sale to Paychex, wasn't just closing out a CFO chapter—he may have been opening something entirely new.While he later softened the sentiment, suggesting he might be surprised if he moved beyond finance, his earlier candor revealed a finance leader attuned to operations—and perhaps transformation.Years earlier, Ante had flown weekly to Colorado, struggling to integrate a newly acquired company. “I felt like I was failing,” he tells us. The lesson was hard-won: strategy and spreadsheets are meaningless unless you can move people with them. That shift—from financial executor to business operator—has defined his trajectory ever since.His strategic mindset matured further with Extreme Ownership, a book he credits with changing how he approached leadership, cross-functional collaboration, and results.Now, as the dust settles on Paycor's acquisition, Ante's priorities have shifted once again—to preserving what works, aligning teams, and honoring the customer experience.
