Most leaders think delegation is about telling people what to do. But what if the real bottleneck isn't your team's capacity but your relationship with control, perfectionism, and hard conversations? In this episode, Brett shares his own struggle with delegation across multiple growing businesses, and Joe offers a framework for moving from vision to execution without falling into the traps of micromanagement or hands-off abandonment. Together, they explore: Why the leader's job is not to take care of everybody Distilling strategy and vision into the "one thing" that makes everything else easier or irrelevant Solution criteria: how to delegate without dictating or abandoning Why alignment comes from handling objections, not convincing Making it safe (and expected) for your team to say no Why "management" is often a symptom of missing trust Holding people accountable without making it about "trouble" Scheduling hard conversations on your calendar (literally) Institutionalizing appreciation without making it cheesy Why your company is a reflection of your own consciousness Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

By 2011, Baghdad was physically transformed by concrete blast walls institutionalizing sectarian division. Abdul-Ahadcritiques Maliki's government for hollowing out the military through systemic corruption, turning units into "money-making machines." The failure of the 2012 "Friday of Anger" protests and the spillover of the Syrian civil war allowed ISIS to masquerade as "liberators" in Sunni cities like Mosul, exploiting deep-seated grievances against the oppressive central government.

In this episode of Occupied Thoughts, FMEP Fellow Ahmed Moor speaks with Nick Rodelo, a researcher employed by the University Network for Human Rights (UNHR) and the primary author of the report, Report to the UN Committee Against Torture: Systemic Israeli Practices of Torture Against Palestinians in the Occupied Palestinian Territory, submitted to the UN in late 2025. The report describes and provides extensive evidence of torture and abuse against Palestinian detainees and prisoners, demonstrating that "[t]his abuse – including, but not limited to, beatings to the point of broken bones and permanent injury; gang rape and rape by foreign objects; nonconsensual amputations; and extreme deprivation of food, water, sunlight, hygiene, and sleep – are systematic policies and practices of the State of Israel and its actors." Ahmed and Nick discuss the research process and the findings of the UNHR report, the experience of presenting this evidence to the UN Committee Against Torture, and the UN Committee's recommendations.  Nick Rodelo is a researcher employed by the University Network for Human Rights and the primary author of the report "Report to the UN Committee Against Torture: Systemic Israeli Practices of Torture Against Palestinians in the Occupied Palestinian Territory" (submitted October 2025 and republished in November 2025).  Ahmed Moor is a Palestinian-American writer born in Gaza and a Fellow at FMEP. He is an advisory board member of the US Campaign for Palestinian rights, co-editor of After Zionism (Saqi Books) and is currently writing a book about Palestine.

Today, I have the pleasure of speaking with Marina Margarucci, Managing Director at CBIZ, a consulting, tax, and financial services firm. Marina is the national leader of the Private Client Services practice at CBIZ, and she played an instrumental role in the organization and institutionalization of the practice. Marina's career has been concentrated on supporting robust, complex families heavily invested in the Alternative Investment space, which enables her to deliver essential insights when analyzing financial statements and investment portfolios. She specialized in building out and setting up Family Office structures and Private Foundations, and routinely speaks at conferences, discussing the intricacies of Family Office structure and governance. Marina and her company, CBIZ, are an Advisor Member of FOX, and we are happy to have her expertise and thought leadership within our membership community. Today, we cover a topic that comes up more and more frequently among family offices – sustainability. Marina offers her definition of what sustainability of a family office means and shares her views on what it takes for a family office to achieve longevity and enduring relevance across generations of family principals. One important dimension of ensuring sustainability is the rising trend of institutionalizing and professionalizing the family office. Marina talks about this trend and how families can approach the process of formalizing and professionalizing their family office. An increasingly critical practical implication for UHNW families is the role of technology when institutionalizing the family office. Marina provides her insights and suggestions on how best to understand, select, and deploy technology to enhance the capabilities of the family office. Another important pillar of family office sustainability is to assemble and manage an ecosystem of mission-critical service providers. Marina and CBIZ have developed the "4 pillar approach" to creating a web of specialized vendors. She introduces this framework and explains how family offices can apply it. Don't miss this highly relevant and instructive conversation with one of the leading practitioners and professional service providers in the UHNW family wealth and family office space.

"The sooner you can get to a level where you can actually make yourself redundant, I think that's when you start building an institution." This powerful insight from Rohit M A encapsulates a core theme of our conversation: sustainable growth isn't just about a visionary founder, but about building systems and teams that can thrive independently. It's about transitioning from being the indispensable force to the architect of an enduring enterprise.

Before co-founding PeerCapital, he was instrumental in scaling Cloudnine Group of Hospitals from a single unit to a national leader with 42 locations and revenues exceeding ₹1200 crores.

PeerCapital's first fund is close to $40 million, focusing on "consumption enablers" and providing "valuable capital" to founders. Key Insights from the Conversation:

One host is good but two are better! On this episode, Leveraging Thought Leadership's hosts, Peter Winick and Bill Sherman, get together to share their insights about organizational thought leadership, institutionalizing it across an organization, and how it can create authentic relationships and increase audience loyalty. There's no straightforward way to stand up a thought leadership function or position within an organization. Our hosts share their thoughts on that, and on organizations hiring for thought leadership positions  (something unheard of only a few years ago!). The people filling these roles are coming from varied backgrounds – and that helps them bring unique perspectives forward, keeping an audiences focus on the message rather than the medium. In the past, the face of organizational thought leadership might be treated like a rock star, going out on speaking gigs and taking the spotlight. While part of that image is still true, organizations today want many disparate voices sharing their thought leadership. A chorus of voices shows that your organization is full of smart people, and that helps attract and retain others. We round out the conversation by discussing how thought leaders can leverage relationships in order to drive ideas. Narrowcasting (or point casting) your thought leadership to a niche group that can have the most impact can be a game changer, but those relationships can't survive if they only exist on social media. Those relationships need to be fostered over the phone, in person, and in meaningful ways. Three Key Takeaways: * Research shows that three things are needed for successful thought leadership: Buy in from senior leadership, time, and creativity. * Seeing results from thought leadership requires a long time horizon. Much like research and development, you can't expect quick results. * Keynote speakers need to deliver more than entertainment. They need to bring something relevant, insightful, and actionable.

Hey there Newspeelers, Tune in this Friday for my conversation with Dr. Price Fishback, in which he takes us through the history of housing booms and busts, and where our housing market stands now - from a historical perspective. We also talk about the history of home loans. Imagine a 15% interest rate on your home mortgage! Or having only five years to pay off your entire home loan? Dr. Fishback and his team are researching the controversial history of HOLC, a US government agency that is blamed for institutionalizing housing segregation. He disagrees with this assessment of HOLC's history and, of course, we talk about it in detail. This episode will be available at 6 am ET, this Friday, Sept. 30th. Talk to you guys then.

David Hutchens: Story Dash David Hutchens helps leaders find and tell their stories. He works with leaders around the world to find, craft, and tell their most urgent stories for the purpose of creating shared meaning, preserving culture, disseminating learning, and speeding change in organizations. He has taught the Storytelling Leader program at some of the most influential organizations — and he's written many books, including the Circle of the 9 Muses and The Leadership Story Deck. He is the co-creator with longtime friend of the show Susan Gerke of the GO Team program. He's also the author of the new book, Story Dash: Find, Develop, and Activate Your Most Valuable Business Stories…In Just a Few Hours. In this conversation, David and I discuss how to find stories that you can use in your organization. We reflect on the reality that we both hear many leaders say to us: “How do I find the right stories?” David then shares the key principles and steps that every leader can take to surface and curate the best stories. Key Points The “Us At Our Best” taxonomy is what it looks like when are are delivering with energy and excellence. A recent Southwest Airlines story is an example of this. Find the area the area of your work where you need to influence the emotional system. Trust stories about small moments. Don't attempt to create an epic drama of huge importance. The best stories are individual incidents that send a bigger message. Formal story mining can be done alone or as team building. Institutionalizing practices like story sharing can help this happen regularly and naturally. When informally collecting stories, listen for time, place, and person as signals that a story is beginning.

(Featuring Jonathan Ellenzweig, Chief Investment Officer, Tricon Residential) Over the past two decades, the single-family rental industry has evolved into an institutional-caliber asset class—so where is the sector going next? https://www.afire.org/podcast/institutionalizingsfrcast/ Over the past decade, the US single-family rental (“SFR”) industry has matured from a largely mom-and-pop cottage business to a professionally managed, institutional-caliber asset class that fills a pronounced gap in the US housing continuum. Before the GFC there were always SFR homes; however, these were typically owned by individuals who were often more focused on near-term cash flow rather than customer service. In fact, in 2005 there were approximately 13 million occupied SFR homes, or 34% of the entire rental housing stock in the US. The GFC served as a catalyst for the institutionalization of the industry, as large and newly formed technology-enabled owner/operators were able to acquire neglected homes, renovate them, and rent them to families looking for quality rental housing. In many instances, these operators transformed what may have been the worst home on the street into the best. This served to benefit both local homeowners and renters, and served as the genesis of today's SFR industry. On this episode of the AFIRE podcast, Jonathan Ellenzweig explains why the SFR industry remains very small and concentrated among a handful of operators – in fact, less than 2% of the country's approximately 16 million SFR homes are owned by institutional owners. This podcast is based on the article "Institutionalizing Single-Family" from Summit Journal (Summer 2021).
