What's up, everyone! Today we're sharing an episode with Joseph Vellone, the CEO of ChargeScape — a Joint Venture between Ford, Honda, BMW, and Nissan. -----Listen on: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | YouTube | Pocket Casts-----As the grid continues to buckle under the pressure of ever-increasing demand, it's more important than ever to find ways to manage the existing load. However, it's not all bad. One of the main demand drivers might be the core solution to these demand problems—namely, EVs, when paired with smart charging software. You see, all these EVs are essentially backup batteries. Currently, not all are equipped with bi-directional charging, but most new vehicles hitting the roads are. So, not only can a smart charging software, managed by utilities, alleviate demand on the grid, it can also pull energy from the vehicles when the time is right (again, when the hardware capabilities are present). -----Support our Work with a Paid Subscription-----This fundamentally shifts our perspective on vehicles. Instead of a cost center, it could earn you money by purchasing cheap energy, or charging on solar for free, and selling back to the grid at peak demand times. This is the type of utopian future we work towards — and the best part, it's becoming reality in front of us.

Leadership sounds simple in theory, but in reality, it's a constant balancing act between vision, execution, and human dynamics. Teams lose motivation when they don't feel heard, and growth stalls when leaders rely on surface-level strategies that don't address deeper issues. The real challenge isn't just making decisions—it's creating an environment where people feel invested and capable of pushing forward. Without a clear, effective approach, even the best intentions can fall flat. Jim Carlough is a business strategist, speaker, and author with 25+ years of experience in healthcare leadership and growth. He has led companies through major transitions, tripled client bases, and executed corporate acquisitions. His book, The Six Pillars of Effective Leadership, offers a practical guide for leaders at all levels. Today, he breaks down his six leadership pillars, focusing on empathy, integrity, and strategic communication. He shares insights on building high-performing teams and navigating workplace challenges while fostering a supportive, people-first culture. Stay tuned!

Alex Rodriguez shares why in sports and business, striking out is just a part of the game.From the baseball field to the boardroom, great communication is critical for success. But as Alex Rodriguez knows, we don't always hit it out of the park. For this sports superstar turned entrepreneur, striking out is never the end of the story.“I'm fifth all-time in the history of strikeouts,” says Rodriguez. “That means there's only four people in the history of mankind that have failed more than me.” For the 14-time Major League Baseball All-Star and World Series champion, failures aren't endings, but opportunities to learn and grow. "The key is how you get back up with the same energy and enthusiasm," explains Rodriguez, who is now chairman and CEO of A-Rod Corp, leading a team of experts in building high-growth businesses.In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, co-hosted by Matt Abrahams and Stanford GSB colleague Jeffrey Pfeffer, Rodriguez shares lessons on resilience, authenticity, and effective communication. From maintaining a "slow heartbeat" in high-pressure moments to his approach of "intentional listening," he offers insights on leadership, giving feedback, and viewing communication as "an unselfish act." Whether you're stepping up to the plate or stepping up to present, these strategies can help you turn strikeouts into home runs.Episode Reference Links:Alex RodriguezJeffrey Pfeffer Ep.166 Why Relying on Talent Alone Will Fail YouEp.153 Listen Up, Leaders: A Record-Setting Coach's Guide to Communication Connect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedInChapters:(00:00) - Introduction (02:53) - Teaching at Stanford: Strategic Pivoting (04:28) - Preparing for Life After Baseball (06:51) - Performing Under Pressure (08:16) - Finding Balance Post-Pandemic (09:14) - Building a Media Presence (11:05) - Creating Great Teams (12:15) - The Role of Ego and Intentional Listening (14:26) - Giving and Receiving Feedback (17:06) - Setbacks, Resilience, and Redemption (20:09) - Developing Authenticity (21:39) - The Final Three Questions (25:31) - Conclusion *****This episode is brought to you by Babbel.

Today we're delighted to welcome the British and Irish Lions CEO Ben Calveley to the show. The Lions are one of the most iconic institutions in sport. Made up of players from England, Scotland, Ireland, and Wales, this team which tours once every four years is the pinnacle of many a rugby player's career. In just a few weeks, the team will begin its tour of Australia, trying to win a series for only the third time in the last 30 years. This highlights how difficult it actually is for the Lions to be successful. There are few things more difficult than winning away in New Zealand, South Africa and Australia. But what is it that makes the Lions so revered? How do the players turn off rivalry to become the ultimate team for a few short weeks. As described by the Lions themselves which perfectly sums it up, this history is a testament to the power of unity, where rivalries are set aside in pursuit of rugby excellence. This is the real Lions brought to you by the man in charge of the whole legacy. We're delighted to welcome Ben to the Business of Sport. On today's show we discuss: Sculpted in History: When was the Lions formed and how has it shaped the most unique team in rugby, maybe even in sport? What does it mean to be a part of the Lions; from inclusion as player to the coaching staff taking on the challenge. Who has the advantage? The balance between putting together the strongest team from four great rugby nations and playing away from home. Why has success been so hard to come by and what have winning teams been able to harness? Business of The Lions: Behind the history, legacy and honour lies a business that needs to be delivering more than once every four years. How does the organisation make money? From broadcast to sponsorship to ticketing; the numbers behind the Lions. Can The Lions make themselves less financially dependent on the tour and diversify their risk profile to ensure the business is not over exposed? How do sponsorships work and why does Ben think their partners are so keen to align themselves with the team? This is a profitable organisation! What could other sports organisations pick up from the value created around the team? The Future: A historic organisation must leverage its legacy while continuing to innovate. What are the Lions doing to ensure they remain at the front of the attention economy? The introduction of the Women's Tour and what that does for both rugby and the brand. Would the team ever play a series in a location other than Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa? The modern media environment has created an era of sports documentaries, but how were the Lions at the front of this movement? Creating an event out of the squad announcement; how a day at the O2 will create an F1 car launch style buzz around one of the most exciting aspects of any Lions tour.

Feeling stuck can be frustrating, especially when it seems like everyone else is moving forward with ease. Working harder often feels like the answer, but without the right direction, it just leads to exhaustion instead of progress. Real breakthroughs come from learning the right things at the right time and surrounding yourself with people who challenge and support you. Success isn't just about effort—it's about knowing where to focus that effort so it actually moves you forward.Eric Wilson is a versatile professional with experience in coaching, business development, and outdoor pursuits.

Today, he shares insights on leadership, team building, and personal development. Join in as young leaders pose inquiries about life, personal development, and beyond!Quotes: “If you can outlast others or are willing to do something difficult, you'll surpass 90% of people. Most won't attempt it because it's hard, or they'll give up when it gets tough and discouraging.” – Eric Wilson“A mission statement isn't just something you write on a plaque and hang on the wall. It should serve as your map and be concise enough for people to understand.” – Eric Wilson“No amount of money is worth being in a situation where you don't love or at least enjoy being.” – Eric Wilson“All the best leaders I know—and the ones I learn from and pay attention to—are voracious learners. They are also followers in a sense, seeking guidance and counsel from others they respect.” – Matt BeaudreauTakeaways:Schedule 30 minutes each morning for personal growth - read, pray, exercise, or learn a new skill before checking emails or starting work.Interview potential team members using STAR method (Situation, Task, Action, Result) to uncover true problem-solving abilities and cultural fit.Create a clear, actionable mission statement that guides decision-making and can help team members make choices even when leadership isn't present.Identify 2-3 mentors in different areas of life who embody the values and success you want to achieve and actively seek their guidance.Challenge yourself quarterly with a new skill or experience outside your comfort zone to maintain mental sharpness and personal development.Conclusion:The most effective professionals prioritize continuous learning, stay focused on their core mission, and invest in people who drive results. They recognize the importance of supporting top performers while quickly addressing areas that hold the team back. Progress isn't about working harder but about making smart, decisive choices that move the needle. Success comes from balancing high standards with the ability to adapt and improve along the way.
