What happens when a top-performing rep becomes a people-first leader in one of the most demanding roles in tech? In this episode of Coach2Scale, Jeff Perry, CRO at Carta, shares his leadership journey from his early days at Oracle to building high-performing, diverse teams at Carta. He unpacks the misconceptions that still hold sales leaders back, like the idea that only hard-charging, deal-focused managers succeed, or that considerable company experience doesn't translate to startup growth. Jeff challenges these myths with candor, offering lessons for anyone navigating their evolution as a leader.The conversation tackles why being a “nice leader” isn't a liability, how to hire from non-obvious backgrounds, and why no one should ever lose a deal alone. Matt and Jeff also dig into the most challenging job in sales, the frontline manager, and why equipping them with the right mindset and tools is the only way to scale performance sustainably. Whether you're a rep, manager, or CRO, this episode will help you rethink how leadership, culture, and coaching intersect to drive lasting results.Key Takeaways1. Lean into who you are as a leaderStop trying to fit someone else's mold, own your style, values, and story to build authentic credibility.2. Prominent company leaders can thrive in startups.Success in enterprise sales doesn't disqualify you from excelling in high-growth, early-stage environments if you can translate your experience.3. Empathy and accountability are not mutually exclusiveBeing a “nice” leader doesn't mean being soft; it means building trust so you can challenge and develop your people effectively.4. Hiring for diversity improves team performance.Creating teams with varied backgrounds and experiences, not just résumés, leads to more resilience, learning, and results.5. Balanced team performance is more sustainable than star-centric modelsHitting 115% with everyone contributing beats 130% with a few carrying the load, especially when building culture and scale.7. Managers should never lose a deal alone.The best AEs use the entire team, from executives to product, to win; lone-wolf selling is inefficient and risky.8. Coaching should focus beyond the deal.Too many 1:1s revolve around the pipeline; great leaders use coaching to build reps' long-term skills and confidence.9. Sales leadership is about consistency through volatilityIn unpredictable markets, reps need leaders who are steady, transparent, and focused on what can be controlled.10. High growth creates opportunity, but only for those who embrace itCarta's rapid evolution has opened new career paths, but leaders must stay close to the people and remain hands-on to unlock them.11. Frontline managers need structure and support to succeedThe FLM role is the most overloaded in the org; without tools, coaching frameworks, and clarity, they default to dealing with triage and burnout.

Successful change management in oil and gas is dependent on having the right mindset about the change. Many years ago, I was involved in implementing a new computer system for a remote field office. The managers assured us that all they needed to do to guarantee a successful implementation was to order the employees by memo to use the system. Change management? Tick. We dutifully couriered to the field office a laptop with the system installed, which was returned to us a couple of days later, crushed flat and with freshly laid-down tire marks visible on the cover. So much for management's efforts to win over hearts and minds. Change management rarely considers the mindset of those driving change and those expected to embrace change, which inevitably brings conflict to the adoption process. How people show up matters. In this podcast I interview Jeff Perry, a leadership and career expert who helps individuals, teams, and organizations unlock their potential in all facets of life. Given his background in engineering, business, and leadership, he specializes in working with engineering and technical professionals, but the principles he shares are universal. He is the author of the bestselling book, "The Intentional Engineer: A Guide to a Purpose-Driven Life and Career for Engineers and Technical Professionals." Connect with Jeff:

What would security look like in a society without government? In this episode of the Bad Roman podcast, host Craig Harguess sits down with Jeff Perry from Voluntarism in Action to explore this intriguing question. They delve into the concept of voluntary society security, discussing how private security firms, insurance-based models, and community-based solutions could replace traditional policing. The conversation critiques the current government-run police system, highlighting issues like qualified immunity, police militarization, and lack of accountability. Jeff and Craig explain how free market principles could offer better incentives and outcomes for security services, challenging the "foundational myth" that government exists to protect us. From a Christian perspective, they explore how voluntary solutions align more closely with Christian principles than coercive government systems. This episode is sure to provoke thought and encourage listeners to reconsider their views on security and governance. Tune in for a compelling discussion that questions the status quo and envisions a freer, more ethical society.

Once the diagnosis of nontraumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) has been made, our job is not done. Mortality in SAH patients can be up to 30% even without neurological deficit. Paying attention to the time-sensitive details of ED management of SAH patients can have a significant impact on their outcome. In this second part of our 2-part podcast series on subarachnoid hemorrhage with Dr. Katie Lin and Dr. Jeff Perry we answer questions such as: what are the 4 critical priorities in the initial stabilization of the patient with a suspected massive subarachnoid hemorrhage? When is a CT plus CTA of the head indicated up front in the management of patients with suspected subarachnoid hemorrhage? What is the evidence for oral nimodipine in improving outcomes in patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage and how does it work? What can we do in the ED to prevent rebleeding in patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage? What are the simplest and best prognostic tools available for spontaneous subarachnoid hemorrhage to help counsel families and patients? and more...
