This episode features a rare and powerful perspective: what it takes to lead one of agriculture's most respected family-owned companies — when you're not part of the family name.We sit down with Tom Mangan, Sukup Manufacturing's incoming CEO and the first non-family executive to hold the role in the company's history. Tom's background spans Fareway Stores, Endicott Clay Products, Deloitte Tax, and, since 2020, serving as Sukup's CFO. Beginning in October 2025, he'll step into the CEO role with Hank Norem transitioning back into the CFO seat to support the change.Tom shares his journey from Iowa State accounting major and CPA to guiding one of ag's most innovative, global, family-rooted brands. We explore the challenges and advantages of stepping into leadership in a multi-generational family company — from building trust, honoring legacy, and collaborating with family stakeholders to introducing new systems, tech, and approaches.Listeners will gain insight into how non-family leaders can thrive in family-owned operations, how to create alignment across teams, and how to balance culture, performance, and long-term vision. Tom breaks down his collaborative leadership philosophy, the lessons he's learned, and the strategies he believes matter for both large manufacturers and family farms alike. Want Farm4Profit Merch?

In this new episode, Niels Brabandt, international leadership expert and founder of NB Networks, examines one of the most overlooked but decisive factors in modern business leadership: standing up for values. Across industries, executives frequently speak about values, ethics, and integrity—yet real-world decisions often tell a very different story. Triggered by a recent, highly controversial event involving the German Association for Family Businesses and its decision to engage with a secured far-right extremist organisation, Niels Brabandt analyses why value-based leadership collapses when conviction is missing. Drawing from historical and contemporary examples—including supply-chain failures, compliance breakdowns, and corporate ethics scandals—this episode reveals how organisations drift into reputational crises when leaders choose convenience over principles. This episode answers the questions every decision maker must confront: Why acting without values is impossible, and what actually determines a leader's ethical compass. How organisations lose credibility when leaders rely on "pseudo-reasons" instead of transparent justifications. Why engaging with extremist actors poses profound operational, cultural, and democratic risks. How mission, vision, and values must be implemented to build a culture that consistently lives its principles. What authentic leadership looks like—and why employees quickly identify and disengage from inauthentic behaviour. How value-driven leadership strengthens trust, retention, organisational resilience, and long-term business performance. Grounded in practical leadership experience and supported by evidence from real corporate cases, Niels Brabandt outlines a clear roadmap for leaders who aim to build organisations that are credible, resilient, and trustworthy. Keywords: Niels Brabandt, leadership, value-based leadership, business ethics, organisational culture, sustainable leadership, decision-making, corporate governance, authenticity in leadership, compliance, ethical leadership, organisational trust, executive responsibility, leadership development, business decision makers, NB Networks, standing up for values, mission vision values, leadership integrity, organisational behaviour.

If you are wondering if you should work with your husband or wife, or for tips and tricks to stay married when you work together, you are in the right place today! When married partners work together, the business is never “just business.” Working in a #familybusiness is a dynamic that impacts the partners at home and at work, and it impacts everyone in the company, too. Kaley Warner Klemp, co-author of The 15 Commitments of Conscious Leadership and The 80/80 Marriage, discusses actionable tips to help partnerships thrive. She shares suggestions for aiming for generosity rather than fairness, why clear roles protect both the relationship and the business, and how spouses can repair after conflict when you are doing it in front of the whole company. They discuss the quieter questions leaders rarely ask out loud. How do power dynamics shift when work and home blend so closely? What do employees notice before the couple does? What helps a team feel steady when conflict between partners surfaces in real time? Kaley offers tools for conversations, visible repair, and the kind of leadership that supports long-term wellbeing for the couple and the company. It's a grounded look at working with your partner in a way that strengthens both the business and the relationship behind it.

Joining her are her friends Faith Ferry and Fionn Riley, co-hosts of her college radio show called “The F Word” (their names all start with “F,” and they talk about topics that start with “F”).

Among the food-related topics discussed: * Dining hall food, and its potential health risks.* Thanksgiving foods - tater tots on green bean casserole is a thing?* Fiona’s second attempt at constructing a Jell-O dessert.* Favorite restaurants - let’s have more buffets (or not)! Also, what’s the best thing to order from Panda Express? Chili’s?* Fiona shares a dark sandwich moment from our shared history (she calls it “James lore”).

Sales leadership isn't just about hitting numbers—it's about creating a strategic framework that transforms your entire organization into a revenue-generating machine. When you shift from viewing sales as a transactional function to positioning it as the strategic heartbeat of your company, everything changes. In this conversation with John Allen, CRO of GNA Partners, we explore how to build a consultative selling culture that puts customer outcomes first. John shares his journey from operations to sales leadership, revealing how his operational background became his secret weapon in creating systematic approaches to revenue generation. The Power of Operational Thinking in Sales Coming from an operations background gave John a unique perspective on sales strategy. Instead of relying on gut feelings or "the way we've always done it," he applied systematic thinking to every aspect of the sales process. This operational mindset became the foundation for scaling GNA Partners from a lifestyle business to a national player in the HR outsourcing space. Building a Revenue Culture That Actually Works Creating visibility into key metrics was the first step in transforming GNA's sales organization. By implementing Salesforce and making pipeline data transparent across the team, John created accountability and clarity around what success looks like. But transparency alone wasn't enough; the team needed to understand how their individual contributions connected to the company's broader strategic goals. The Two-Opportunities-Per-Week Framework After analyzing five years of data from top performers, John discovered something remarkable: the highest-producing reps consistently added two legitimate opportunities to their pipeline every week. This simple metric became the North Star for the entire sales organization, cutting through the noise of countless KPIs to focus on what truly drives results. Here's what you'll learn from this episode: How to transition from transactional selling to strategic consulting that builds long-term client relationships. The systematic approach to onboarding new sales talent that accelerates time-to-productivity. Why pipeline coverage ratios matter and how to calculate the right targets for your team. The critical role of sales leadership in reinforcing methodology through hands-on coaching. How to create accountability systems that drive consistent performance across your sales organization. John's approach proves that when you combine operational discipline with consultative selling principles, you create a sustainable competitive advantage. His insights on balancing pipeline development with rep growth offer a roadmap for any sales leader looking to scale their organization effectively. Whether you're struggling with inconsistent performance, looking to implement a proven sales methodology, or seeking to create better alignment between sales and operations, this conversation provides actionable strategies you can implement immediately. Key Moments of This Episode 00:00:00 - Customer-Centric Sales Philosophy: Focus on People and Relationships Sales success requires removing noise and focusing on adding two legitimate opportunities weekly to your pipeline. People buy from people, making the customer experience and relationship-building the ultimate differentiator when all providers offer similar solutions. 00:01:14 - Meet John Allen: CRO Journey from Banking to HR Outsourcing Leadership John Allen shares his 17-year journey at GNA Partners, transitioning from JP Morgan banking to becoming CRO of a Professional Employer Organization serving 4,500+ clients nationwide with comprehensive HR outsourcing services. 00:03:52 - Family Business to Private Equity: GNA Partners' Growth Transformation GNA Partners evolved from a family-owned business founded by John Allen Sr. and Tony Gralva to a private equity-backed company with TPG Capital, positioning for significant growth in the PEO space. 00:08:25 - Elevating Sales from Revenue Engine to Strategic Leadership Function Transforming sales teams from transactional order-takers to strategic consultants requires understanding client operations and positioning solutions through the customer's lens, focusing on business efficiency and profitability rather than just hitting numbers. 00:13:27 - Shifting from Transactional to Strategic Partnership Selling Successful sales transformation requires expertise in your field, maintaining a robust pipeline to eliminate desperation, and approaching conversations as collaborative problem-solving sessions rather than traditional sales pitches focused on closing deals. 00:21:03 - Building Revenue Culture Through Visibility and Measurement Systems Creating a revenue-focused culture starts with implementing CRM systems like Salesforce for complete visibility, establishing clear quotas and forecasts, and connecting individual sales goals to broader company objectives and resource allocation. 00:28:22 - The Two Opportunities Per Week Formula for Sales Success Analysis of top performers revealed a consistent pattern: adding two legitimate opportunities weekly (96 annually) correlates directly with quota achievement, providing sales teams a clear, actionable KPI to focus on. 00:33:33 - Operationalizing Sales Onboarding: From Hiring to Pipeline Generation Effective onboarding varies by experience level, featuring 90-day programs covering industry knowledge, tools training, and providing 600-750 vetted accounts to new reps, ensuring a systematic approach to sales development and early performance assessment. 00:43:32 - Implementing Sales Methodology: Sandler Selling System Integration GNA Partners adopted the Sandler selling methodology company-wide, requiring certification for all reps and parallel training for sales leaders to ensure consistent reinforcement and application of consultative selling principles. 00:50:56 - Sales Leadership Excellence: The Four Critical Competencies Effective sales leaders must excel in at least two-three areas: recruiting talent, understanding and selling the product, mastering sales enablement tools, or being exceptional at closing deals to maintain credibility and effectiveness.

Hi everyone, Happy Tuesday! This year, I dressed up as the Marshmallow Man for Halloween, so it's only fitting that I have Ernie Hudson on the show this week! Ernie famously played Winston Zeddmore in Ghostbusters. He has also appeared in many, many other projects, including films like The Crow, Airheads and Miss Congeniality and on TV on Oz, Grace and Frankie, LA's Finest and most recently as L. C. Duncan in The Family Business. It was such an honor to sit down with Ernie and we immediately got along. We talk about his childhood and the emotional moment last year when the street he grew up on was renamed in his honor. We also get into the inner strength he's developed riding the highs and lows of an almost 60 year (!) career in show business. There is so much we can all learn from Ernie and I hope you get as much out of this conversation as I did. If you want to hear more about Ernie and get updates on my own life, be sure to check out the Hindsight for this episode over on Patreon!

Pranav Dalal is the visionary Founder and CEO of Office Beacon, a global outsourcing powerhouse with over 5,500 employees. Launching the business in 2000 after the dot-com crash, Pranav has expanded operations from India to the Philippines, Mexico, and South Africa, providing over 150 different services to clients worldwide. As a single father, he is actively building a multi-generational family business, with his children joining the ranks to learn the industry from the ground up. Pranav is also a forward-thinker who leverages unique partnerships with the NFL and SoFi Stadium to drive business growth.SHOW SUMMARYIn this episode, host Jonathan Goldhill sits down with Pranav Dalal to discuss his 25-year journey of building a truly global enterprise. Pranav shares the origin story of shifting from the tech sector to B2B services and how he strategically scaled Office Beacon across multiple continents. We explore how he balances running a massive remote organization using systems like EOS and the "generational compact" he has established with his children. Pranav also offers fascinating insights into his unique sports marketing partnerships, his aggressive adoption of AI to disrupt his own business model, and the ancestral values that guide his leadership.KEY TAKEAWAYSThe Generational Compact: Pranav built Office Beacon with the specific intent of creating a multi-generational legacy. His children joined the business not through nepotism, but by starting at entry-level positions to learn humility and hard work.Scaling with EOS: Managing 5,500 employees remotely requires discipline. Pranav utilizes the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS) five levels deep to ensure core values and goals are cascaded effectively across global teams.Innovative Partnerships: Moving beyond traditional marketing, Office Beacon holds exclusive partnerships with SoFi Stadium and the NFL Alumni Association, using stadium suites for daily business networking rather than just game-day entertainment.Disrupt or Be Disrupted: Pranav views himself as the "Chief Disruption Officer." He is heavily investing in AI education and implementation for 2026, believing that if he doesn't disrupt his own business model, a competitor will.Trust But Verify: A core leadership lesson Pranav instills in his children and team is the concept of "trust but verify"—maintaining faith in people while ensuring details and execution are validated to prevent costly mistakes.Ancestral DNA: Pranav reconnected with his heritage, discovering that his surname "Dalal" means "broker" in Persian/Hindi, which reinforced his belief that business and entrepreneurship are embedded in his family's DNA.QUOTES"My whole goal was to create a multi-generational family business.""If we're not disrupting ourselves, someone's going to disrupt you.""I realized that it was a very doable thing... that there are these family legacies out there in business that go back hundreds of years.""They fail, feel a sense of ownership even though I'm the owner... their mindset of being accountable is incredible.""I'm in the people business, and I should be the first one to say, 'Wow, I'm scared of AI,' but I'm embracing it a thousand percent."Connect and learn more about Pranav Dalal and Office Beacon: Pranav Dalal's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/pranavdalal/Office Beacon Website: https://www.officebeacon.com/ Email for inquiries: sales@officebeacon.comIf you enjoyed today's episode, please subscribe, review, and share with a friend who would benefit from the message.
