Podcasts about great leaders

It would be pointless to suggest that The Great Leader was 'starting 2026 as he means to go on.' Everything He does happens precisely when and because He means it to. That said, 2026 began with great intention. An epic seasonal trip to Switzerland from The Great Leader and a raft of predictions for the year ahead, from Steve. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.ukThis week's podcast is dedicated to Frederick.Thank you.

Brilliant leaders measure their worth not by personal gain, but by the value they deliver to others. They push our civilization forward by creating products, services, and ideas that make life richer, more humane, and more beautiful. They are legacy-driven—leaving behind a world that is better, stronger, and wiser because they lived.My team has just opened access to my completely new and very helpful online program The Amazing Day Blueprint. It's designed with one strong focus: to help you consistently build great days in 2026, that turn into the single greatest year of your life. Here are all of the details.FOLLOW ROBIN SHARMA:InstagramFacebookXYouTube

What sets great leaders apart in times of crisis and change? In this week's episode, John shares a powerful insight he gained from Chick-fil-A chairman Dan Cathy on the importance of self-awareness and situational awareness for leaders — especially in tough times!  After his lesson, Mark Cole and Chris Goede discuss practical ways to cultivate these awarenesses as a leader. They explore how seeking honest feedback, asking thoughtful questions, and learning from role models can expand your leadership capacity. Key takeaways:  Self-awareness doesn't happen in isolation—it requires the courage to invite feedback from others and the humility to receive it.  Before you can lead yourself effectively, you must first know yourself authentically. Self-awareness precedes situational awareness.  Situational awareness grows through experience, but you can accelerate it by asking "What would a leader I admire do in this situation?" and seeking input from trusted mentors. Our BONUS resource for this episode is the Why Self-Awareness Sets Great Leaders Apart Worksheet, which includes fill-in-the-blank notes from John's teaching.

In this episode of Wine After Work, Bryce Batts is joined by Rachel Burr, executive coach, leadership consultant, and expert in people and organizational dynamics. Leadership is hard — not because leaders are doing it wrong, but because people are complex. And leaders? They're people too. Rachel brings more than 20 years of experience working with leaders who stepped into management not because they were trained to lead people, but because they were exceptional individual contributors. In this conversation, we unpack why that transition is so challenging — and how leaders can develop authentic, effective leadership without forcing themselves into rigid, one-size-fits-all models. In this episode, we explore: Why high performers often struggle most when they step into leadership The hidden people-dynamics that derail even well-intentioned leaders How self-awareness, values, and individuality drive better leadership outcomes What it really means to build high-performing, values-aligned teams Why leadership development must be human-centered to actually work If you're leading people — or considering stepping into leadership — this episode will challenge how you think about performance, culture, and your own potential.

When the building is quiet but the work isn't done, what should leaders actually be doing? In this episode, Ryan Steuer breaks down how top-tier school leaders use those “in-between” days—when students and teachers are gone, but administrators are still on contract—to create clarity, momentum, and renewal. Rather than reacting to email or busywork, high-performing leaders use this rare space to plan long-term, reconnect with key relationships, and rest in ways that genuinely refuel them. This episode is a practical guide to using quiet seasons to strengthen leadership impact and prepare for what's next. Key Topics Covered 1. Long-Term Planning Over Short-Term Noise Top leaders use quiet days to focus on deep, strategic work—not inbox cleanup. Ryan challenges administrators to identify the one thing that would move their work forward 5x or 10x, rather than reacting to urgency. How to find the “signal” in the middle of constant noise Why long-range planning gets pushed aside—and why that's a mistake Aligning district strategic plans with real, day-to-day work Using coaching or consulting conversations to gain clarity and direction 2. Rebuilding and Strengthening Relationships Leadership can unintentionally sideline important professional relationships. These quieter days offer rare opportunities to reconnect with trusted peers, mentors, and thought partners. Why meaningful relationships often get canceled during busy school weeks How to intentionally reconnect with other high-capacity leaders Using these conversations to test bold ideas and innovative thinking Creating space for both personal and professional reflection 3. Redefining Rest for High-Capacity Leaders Rest looks different for driven leaders. Ryan reframes rest as something intentional and personal—not just doing nothing. Why “doing nothing” isn't always restorative Defining what actually refills your energy Examples of active, reflective, and creative rest How clarity and purpose reduce stress more effectively than downtime alone Big Takeaways Quiet days are leadership opportunities, not leftovers Clarity reduces stress more than productivity hacks Relationships fuel long-term leadership success Rest must be defined personally to be effective Action Steps for School Leaders Identify one strategic priority that deserves deep focus Schedule at least one meaningful leadership conversation Define what true rest looks like for you—and plan for it intentionally Use quiet seasons to prepare for the demands of the year ahead Resources Mentioned PBL Readiness Scorecard™: Assess your school or district's readiness for Project Based Learning and get targeted next steps at pblscore.com

In this episode of The Best You Podcast, Nick sits down with Dr. JJ Peterson—bestselling author, professor, host of The Badass Softie podcast, and former Head of StoryBrand.JJ brings the perfect blend of humor, humility, and heart as he shares how discouraged he became watching leaders who failed to lead with integrity, empathy, or energy—and why he pivoted to build a new brand and mission that teaches leaders to be both ambitious and emotionally intelligent.This episode is full of real-life insight—not just from JJ's career as a communications expert, but from his recent personal transformation as a new husband and sudden stepdad to four kids. He shares what it means to live out a hero's mindset and be a guide, how to stop playing the victim, and how to build trust through consistency and ownership.What You'll Learn:●      Why JJ left the corporate world to build something more unique to him●      What the best leaders do differently (and what bad leaders get wrong)●      How to live and lead without a victim mentality●      The difference between being a hero and being a guide●      What it's like becoming a stepdad of 4 overnight—and how it's shaped him●      How to lead at work and at home with strength and softness

In this solo episode, I explore a question that's been on my mind for a long time: what actually separates an adequate leader from a good one, and a good one from a great one?I use football as an analogy, not to glorify sports leadership clichés, but to illustrate a distinction that shows up everywhere. In business. In manufacturing. In engineering. In organizations that win once, versus those that win consistently.An adequate leader operates at the tactical level. They make good decisions in the moment. They motivate. They call decent plays. They can win games with the right inputs.A good leader operates at the strategic level. They game plan. They understand matchups. They align tactics to strengths and weaknesses. They win more often.But the leaders who succeed year after year are doing something fundamentally different. They are designing systems.Using the Michigan Wolverines' path to the 2023 national championship as a concrete example, I break down how Jim Harbaugh and his staff stopped optimizing plays and started optimizing the entire organization around a clear objective. Recruiting. Strength training. Scheme. Coaching roles. Player profiles. Even quarterback selection. Everything was designed to work together toward a specific outcome.This episode is about leadership as organizational design. About why “great people” alone are not enough. About why the right person in the wrong system still fails. And about the leader's real job: creating a structure where people can exercise judgment, take ownership, and succeed without constant direction.This is a working hypothesis, not a manifesto. But it's one I believe matters deeply for anyone responsible for building teams, systems, and results that last.Building Better with Brandon Bartneck explores what it means to build—better companies, better systems, and better lives. Through conversations and reflections, Brandon digs into the principles that drive growth, purpose, and meaningful work.Music credit: Slow Burn – Kevin MacLeod

Senior executives are often told to focus on big-picture strategy while delegating the specifics of execution. But, according to Scott Cook, cofounder and former CEO of Intuit, smart leaders also spend time on the details of how the organization gets work done at every level, including the front lines. Working with Harvard Business School professor Nitin Nohria, he studied companies from Toyota to Amazon to better understand why hands-on leadership, from the CEO down, works and how to do it without micromanaging. They are coauthors of the HBR article "The Surprising Success of Hands-On Leaders."

You know that moment when someone sees something in you long before you're ready to claim it? For many leaders, that moment becomes the spark that changes everything. For Vicky Brown, it was the gentle (yet persistent) nudge that pushed her from devoted "number two" to founder of a thriving HR firm that's been supporting high-performance companies for more than two decades. Too often, business owners think of HR as paperwork, policies, or "the stuff you deal with when something goes wrong." But Vicky's story—and her expertise—reveal a very different truth: HR is leadership. HR is vision. HR is the people strategy that creates growth, retention, and long-term success. With 20+ years of corporate leadership behind her, Vicky stepped into entrepreneurship almost by accident. But what she built—Idomeneo Enterprises and the Leaders Journey Experience—now helps business owners streamline their operations, strengthen their culture, and lead with confidence. And yes, her unexpected background as an opera singer plays a surprising role in how she shows up as a leader today. In this episode, Vicky breaks down how to hire well, retain top talent, lead remote teams, and embrace the mindset required to grow—and how you can do the same. Finding & Keeping the Right People Hiring high performers doesn't start with a job post—it starts the moment you recognize a gap on your team. Vicky explains that clarity is everything: when leaders don't define what they truly need, they end up hiring "whoever sticks" instead of hiring strategically. Onboarding goes beyond SOPs. High performers want context—why their work matters, where it fits in the bigger picture, and what success actually looks like. When people feel informed and empowered, they stay engaged and contribute at a higher level. And retention? It comes down to vision. Vicky shares that great leaders build a vision big enough to hold their team's dreams. Some people will eventually pursue their own path—and that's a win. But the right culture gives ambitious, talented people room to grow with you. Leading With Vision—And Letting Your Team Shine With decades of HR leadership behind her, Vicky reminds us that great CEOs don't know everything—they know enough to hire the right experts. She encourages leaders to stay curious, keep learning, and stay connected to every part of the business, even the parts outside their natural strengths. Culture is equally essential, especially for remote teams. Vicky shares how her company maintains connection through weekly team touchpoints—tactical meetings, kudos and wins, shared learning, and a beloved "Wednesday Water Cooler" that mixes fun with genuine relationship building. These small rituals create trust and make work feel human. And then there's her opera background. Her teacher's advice—"Sing with your opera voice all the time"—became a leadership mantra about confidence, presence, and stepping fully into your role. It's the mindset that helped Vicky evolve from a reluctant founder to a visionary leader.

I had never sold anything—now suddenly I'm responsible for sales, marketing, accounting, all of it." 14:14 - 14:25 "Your vision needs to be large enough to hold their dream. If your vision is big enough, there's infinite opportunity for them with you." Quotes "You just have to step into that suit and wear it." "High performers don't just want to make widgets—they want to know how their work fits into the bigger picture." "Recruiting is a marketing function. You're selling the opportunity to the right people." "You need to know enough to be dangerous, but not enough to do it all. Hire experts."

A crisis doesn't have to break your church or organization. In this powerful conversation, Dr. Mark Rutland, Executive Director of the National Institute of Leadership and founder of Global Servants, joins Phil Cooke https://philcooke.com to share hard-earned insights on leading through crisis, turnaround leadership, and building a lasting leadership legacy. Drawing from firsthand experience in crisis management at Southeastern University, Calvary Church, and Oral Roberts University, Dr. Rutland explains why crisis isn't always about scandal—and why vision, systems analysis, and truth-telling are essential for renewal and growth.

Why great leaders stop proving and start leading is the real conversation most leadership content avoids. Proving feels productive, but it quietly erodes trust, blocks collective intelligence, and keeps leaders trapped in fear-driven patterns. In this episode of Reflect Forward, I sit down with Carrie Moore, CEO and founder of Titan Edge Advisory, to explore what happens when leaders shift out of ego and into alignment, and why that shift changes how teams perform and cultures scale. Carrie brings more than twenty years of experience across capital markets, corporate banking, and financial services. She is a Forbes Council recognized strategist and has spent the last nine years advising fast moving companies and founders navigating growth and complexity. The Hidden Cost of Proving At the heart of this conversation is a truth many leaders miss. When fear and unworthiness drive behavior, leaders slip into proving, defending, and explaining. This erodes psychological safety and limits collective intelligence, even when intentions are good. Great leadership begins with self-awareness and accountability, not control. When Challenges Become Leverage Carrie shares how growing up dyslexic shaped her leadership, turning early fear into adaptability and resilience. I share why my own rock bottom became a turning point rather than a regret. The hardest experiences often become the source of our greatest leadership strength. The Alignment Advantage Alignment starts with the leader. The only relationship you can give to anyone else is the relationship you have with yourself. When identity, purpose, and behavior are aligned, clarity increases, trust deepens, and performance follows. Leadership In the Age of AI Rather than fearing AI, this episode reframes it as an extension of human capability. The future belongs to leaders who can simplify complexity, lead with purpose, and stay grounded in what makes us human. Mic Drop Moments 1. Proving erodes trust faster than most leaders realize. 2. Fear does not need to disappear, but it should not lead. 3. Authenticity is a leadership advantage, not a vulnerability. Key Takeaways 1. Notice when you are leading from fear rather than alignment. 2. Your past challenges are leadership training, not liabilities. 3. Alignment at the top shapes everything below it.

Cast your vote for Purpose 360 as Best Business Podcast here!Leadership coaching has the power to unlock profound personal and organizational transformation. That belief lies at the heart of 100 Coaches. Founded by executive coach Marshall Goldsmith, 100 Coaches began with a bold experiment: Marshall offered to teach 15 people everything he knew for free, in gratitude for the teachers and leaders who helped shape him. As those first 15 committed to “pay it forward,” the idea resonated deeply. More than 16,000 applicants were interested, and so the initiative grew into a community of more than 100 coaches from top leadership, academia, non-profits, healthcare, and beyond.We invited Scott Osman, CEO of 100 Coaches, to reflect on how that founding vision has flourished. Scott shares how 100 Coaches functions as a curated network that matches each leader with the right coach at the right moment, grounded in deep expertise across organizational psychology, leadership development, and human behavior. He underscores how coaching can shift organizational trajectories: when leaders evolve, their teams, culture, and long-term outcomes evolve with them. For those wondering if coaching is a luxury or necessity, this conversation makes a compelling case for the power of investing in people.Listen for insights on:What leadership coaching looks like from the startWhat leaders today struggle with the mostTop leadership myths we need to move away from Resources + Links:Watch this full conversation on YouTubeScott Osman's LinkedIn100 CoachesBecoming Coachable (00:00) - Welcome to Purpose 360 (01:19) - Meet Scott Osman, 100 Coaches (03:05) - Early Influencers (04:12) - Leadership Coaching (05:28) - Services (06:51) - Match Craft (09:31) - What He's Learned From Both Sides of the Equation (11:13) - Generosity (12:26) - Defining Leadership (13:19) - Flavors of Success (15:50) - Role of Humility (17:59) - Role of Corporate Purpose Today (19:09) - Creating the Richest Cultures (20:15) - Leadership Myth (21:35) - Next Frontier for Leadership Growth (23:10) - The Last Word (23:44) - Wrap Up

It's easy to value people you like. But as a leader, affirming people's worth isn't an option — even if you don't see eye to eye. In this week's episode, John Maxwell is sharing 4 practical ways you can develop the all-important skill of uplifting and valuing others! After John's lesson, Mark Cole challenges you with 3 others-focused tasks to complete in the week to come so that you can apply this principle in your life and leadership. Key takeaways:   High road leaders value all people equally, even those different from them. Valuing people yields relational, emotional, and leadership returns.  Valuing people is an intentional action, not a feeling.

About This Episode  In this episode of The Future of Work® Podcast, we had the pleasure of speaking with Dr. Britt Andreatta—renowned leadership expert, neuroscientist, and CEO of Brain Aware Training—about why most change initiatives fail, and how leaders can succeed by understanding the brain. Drawing from decades of research and her best-selling "Wired" book series, Britt explains the biological resistance to change, the rise of change fatigue post-pandemic, and what truly empowers employees. Whether you're an executive, a middle manager, or an emerging leader, this episode delivers science-backed strategies for leading with clarity, empathy, and sustainable momentum in a time of non-stop disruption. 

Ed Danek has served as President and CEO of the Hartford Federal Credit Union for 35 years. He joins Brian at the Holiday store to discuss the needs in communities and how important it is to donate this year.

Executive coach and author Muriel Wilkins joins us to unpack the invisible beliefs that quietly shape how we lead. We explore why curiosity is the starting point for self-awareness, the common internal blockers she sees in leaders, and why leadership growth is less about changing who you are and more about expanding your mindset. Muriel breaks down how hidden scripts formed early in life can limit our impact later on, and how shifting our beliefs can help us move from stress and suffering to clarity, range, and ease at work.

Chief Reminding Officer: The Power of Repetition in Your Family If you've ever felt like a broken record as a parent — constantly reminding your kids (or yourself) of the same things over and over — this episode will make you feel a whole lot better. This week, Chris and Melissa talk about something they've been feeling in both their home and business lately: that quiet drift that happens when you stop doing the simple things that actually work. The routines that keep your house running. The systems that make your marriage stronger. The habits that help your family thrive. And the truth they came back to? Most families don't need a brand-new plan… they just need to remember the one they already have. Chris shares a conversation that pushed him to revisit Excellence Wins by Horst Schulze, the cofounder of the Ritz-Carlton. One line jumped off the page: "Great leaders are really just Chief Reminding Officers." At the Ritz, they review the same guiding principles every 21 days — not because people don't know them, but because repetition is what keeps a culture alive. As Chris and Melissa talk through examples from their own home, you'll hear how easy it is to slip into "sloppy" seasons — dishes piling up, routines disappearing, date nights pushed aside. Not because something is wrong… but because we forget what works. Melissa shares why repetition used to feel boring to her — and how she learned to see it as one of the most loving, grounding things you can do for your family. When you remind your kids who they are, remind your spouse what your marriage is about, or remind yourself what your family values… you're strengthening your culture every single time. This episode will make you feel encouraged, not overwhelmed. You'll walk away remembering that you don't need to reinvent your life — you probably already have the tools, rhythms, and values that work. You just need to return to them, repeat them, and keep reminding the people you love most.

In this inspiring and deeply authentic episode, Mitch sits down with someone he recently shared the TEDx stage with - Dr. Angela Walker Franklin. Dr. Franklin is the President and CEO of Des Moines University Medicine and Health Sciences, and not only is she the first woman and first person of color to hold that role in the university's 125+ year history… she's also a licensed clinical psychologist, a published author, and a powerful voice for leading with empathy, courage, and clarity. They dive into her unique upbringing in a small South Carolina town - where her family ran a funeral home - and how that shaped her perspective on life, leadership, and compassion. You'll hear how her father made a bold, sacrificial pivot from medical school to embalming school to support the family's legacy… and how Dr. Franklin has brought that same spirit of service and innovation into her work today. They also explore the origins of her impactful TEDx talk, "How to Call Out the Elephant in the Room," and how she brought this strategy into leadership meetings, creating a safe space for honest dialogue and collaboration. This episode is filled with laughter, heartfelt stories, and powerful strategies for anyone looking to lead well, connect deeply, and navigate hard conversations with grace. Let's go!

Have you ever wondered why so many well-designed strategies fail in execution? Tim Ohai reveals that the real problem isn't poor planning, it's poor decision-making. Drawing on decades of global experience, he shares how strategy is best understood as a series of decisions rather than as a static plan. You'll learn how clarity at every handoff—from leadership to teams—determines whether people can actually deliver on what's expected. You'll also discover the human side of strategy. We explore how ego, fear, and unclear accountability derail even the best intentions—and what leaders can do to reverse it. Through engaging stories and practical insights, Tim explains how to replace confusion with empowerment, align decisions with outcomes, and approach leadership as stewardship rather than control. If you're ready to transform how your organization thinks and acts, this episode will show you how to make clarity your greatest competitive advantage. Tim has spent decades helping leaders around the world uncover what's getting in the way of their teams—and their own success—and then guiding them to take meaningful action. As a consultant, coach, author, and speaker, Tim combines business best practices with psychological insights to drive performance that's both healthy and sustainable. He's also the host of the How to NOT Execute Your Strategy Podcast, and we explored some key ideas from his upcoming book, The Zen of Strategic Execution. Why strategic execution fails even when plans look solid.How defining strategy as a series of decisions changes everything.The three universal drives that shape team behavior.Practical ways to reduce fear and ego in your culture.How stewardship leads to stronger alignment and engagement.Check out all the episodesLeave a review on Apple PodcastsConnect with Meredith on LinkedInFollow Meredith on TwitterDownload the free ebook Listen Like a Pro

We trust leaders for their authenticity, so what happens when their words are written by AI?In this solo episode, host and Content 10x founder Amy Woods reflects on her recent conversation with Ash Jones, founder of Great Influence and Great Leaders, and explores a new twist in the world of personal branding - the rise of AI tools that promise to “do it all” for you.Shortly after the conversation with Ash, Amy came across a LinkedIn post promoting an AI platform that claims to study a CEO's tone of voice, create their content, and even comment on posts on their behalf.It raised an important question if your personal brand isn't personal anymore… what's left?AI can make content faster.

We have seen how Jesus was such a great leader because he knew who he reported to, and he made sure he fulfilled his boss's expectations. Also, he knew what his mission was, he stayed focused, and he didn't try to jump through the expectation hoops of others. Jesus was always ready to celebrate, and that made him a great leader. Then one thing I really love about Jesus is he always had time for little people—every individual was important to him no matter his/her age, status, or position. Now, let's look at some additional examples of what made Jesus such a great leader. Jesus was a great leader because he was willing to look foolish to others. Do you realize great leaders throughout history have been willing to take risks with their public image, and they didn't spend their time worrying about what people would think of them? Anytime a person is primarily focused on what others think, they are handicapped because they lose the freedom to do what they think is the right and best thing to do. How do you think Noah looked when he started building the ark? Pretty foolish and stupid, don't you imagine? And when Moses told Pharoah to let his people go, he had to look like an insane person, approaching Pharoah with his threats. The great prophet Elijah had to ask a poor widow for food, which some would have considered very demeaning. Mary, the mother of Jesus, was willing not only to look foolish, but also to lose her good reputation in order to bear the Son of God. Had any of these people been primarily concerned with what the neighbors would say, none would have accomplished their God-given purpose. Jesus was not concerned about what people would think. For example, he cried over a city that was not repentant—a grown man crying. But he didn't care what people thought. His heart broke for those people. He rode a donkey in a parade, a lowly beast. Most leaders would have demanded more appropriate transportation, but he sought out a simple donkey to ride on. And, of course, the ultimate example was he was willing to go through a shameful trial and die on a cursed cross, enduring the scorn and abuse of his enemies, to accomplish God's plan. We need to consider this as we approach our jobs and duties. Are you overly concerned with what people will say or think? If so, you may miss the opportunities and blessings God has for you. It's impossible to please everyone anyway, but when we focus on pleasing God, we will please more people as well. Jesus was a great leader because he was willing to do the difficult work. Do you remember the time Jesus determined to go to Jerusalem for Passover? His disciples did not want him to go there because they knew there were people plotting to kill him, just waiting for him to arrive. They wanted to spare him that difficulty, but he knew he was supposed to be there, and he went. Also, he was willing to say no to people when necessary, though I'm sure he didn't enjoy disappointing people. Often the disciples wanted him to do one thing when he knew he should do another, and he would tell them "no.” He even said "no" to his mother and brothers who wanted to interrupt his teaching to speak to him. Jesus also said "no" to himself. Satan tried to tempt him with very enticing promises, and he had the wisdom to say "no" to the easy way out. He knew he had to discipline himself to do what God wanted him to do. Then there was Gethsemane, where Jesus came face to face with the most difficult thing he would ever do: Drink the cup of death and sin that was necessary to pay the price of redemption. None of us can even imagine how hard that was to do—to become sin for us even though he had never sinned. But he did the difficult thing because it was the right thing to do. If you and I are ever going to be effective leaders, we must be willing to do the hardest and most difficult work. Often people see those in leadership as having it easy but from my experience,

This week I'm discussing the transformative power of belief in both personal and professional contexts. Belief is not just a thought but an inner knowing that can expand or contract one's reality.

When you hit a roadblock in your career, it's easy to blame external factors like the economy, the organization, or your boss. But leaders are just as often stymied by their own beliefs about how they need to show up and operate at work, shares executive coach Muriel Wilkins. Through decades of work counseling high-powered executives, she's uncovered the seven main ways that people limit their own success and has advice on how to overcome those mental blocks. Wilkins is author of the HBR article "The Hidden Beliefs That Hold Leaders Back" and the book Leadership Unblocked: Break Through the Beliefs That Limit Your Potential.

The difference between panic and power comes down to a few simple rules. In today's episode, Ryan dives into Les Snead's philosophy on “panic rules” and why it's stuck with him ever since they first talked.
