Podcasts about leaders

High Council members engaged in a live discussion focused on sharing ideas and experiences to strengthen how councils serve their wards and stakes. This podcast is a portion of the livestream discussion. Watch the video and share your thoughts in the Zion Lab community Links The entire conversation and transcript are available in the Zion Lab community Highlights Overview This episode of the Zion Lab live stream from Leading Saints featured a discussion among several current and former Stake High Councilors, focusing on the practical challenges and opportunities of their calling. The participants shared their experiences, best practices, and innovative ideas for magnifying their assignments, effectively bridging communication between the stake and ward levels, and overcoming feelings of inadequacy. Key Insights The Need for Proactivity: The High Council calling can often feel "open-ended," allowing a High Councilor to "do as much as you want" or very little. Leaders are encouraged to be proactive—actively engaging with assigned elders quorum presidencies and ward organizations rather than just attending mandatory meetings. Equality and Insecurity in Calling: New High Councilors frequently feel overwhelmed or insecure when working alongside more seasoned leaders. Counsel was given to overcome this by recognizing that all callings are equal in the sight of the Lord and that the High Councilor's voice and spiritual insights are vital to the council's deliberations. Role as a Spiritual Messenger: High Councilors should see themselves as direct representatives of the Stake Presidency, similar to a General Authority visiting a stake. They are encouraged to be visible, bring spiritual knowledge and instruction, and share a spiritual thought when addressing wards, not merely delivering routine announcements. Mandate to Testify of Christ: Some stakes guide speaking assignments with a General Conference talk, but emphasize that the talk, whether prepared or spontaneous, must be interwoven with a powerful personal testimony of Christ to ensure the Spirit is present. Training and Dissemination of Principles: A core function of the High Council is to receive leadership principles and instruction in the Stake Council. High Councilors are then responsible for taking that training and counsel out to their assigned ward bishoprics and organization presidencies.Leadership Applications Foster Cross-Ward Learning: Stake Presidencies can gain valuable insights and enrich their High Councilors by encouraging them to attend the leadership meetings of the wards where they speak, even if it is not their assigned ward. This exposes High Councilors to diverse operational models among ward councils, creating a cross-training effect. Centralize Administrative Resources: High Councilors should utilize group communication methods, such as shared text threads or digital notes, to quickly share tactical administrative advice, official wording for callings and releases, and handbook references, streamlining the logistical aspects of the calling. Elevate the Message of Love: High Councilors should consistently make a concerted effort to express the genuine love, thoughts, and prayers of the Stake Presidency to the ward members, ensuring the members feel validated, "seen, and prayed for" by their stake leadership. 00:01:36 - Kicking Off: The "Open-Ended" Nature of the High Councilor Calling 00:04:04 - Overcoming Insecurity and Magnifying the Calling 00:06:06 - Advice on Equality and Being a Visible Representative 00:09:38 - The Role of the Spirit vs. Experience in Calling 00:11:23 - Key Role: Training and Teaching Ward Leaders 00:13:07 - Strategies for Stake Engagement: Ward Reporting and Training 00:14:44 - Unique Assignment: Attending Cross-Ward Leadership Meetings 00:16:37 - Close Relationship with Stake Presidency and Financial Duties 00:18:38 - Tactical Tip: Using a High Councilor Text Group for Logistics ...

Welcome back to Impact Theory with Tom Bilyeu! In today's episode, Tom and co-host Drew dive into a whirlwind of current events and cultural commentary, dissecting some of the most heated stories making headlines right now. The duo unpacks the drama between Candace Owens and Charlie Kirk, with Candace claiming vindication after Turning Point USA confirmed explosive texts about donor influence and shifts in support for Israel. Tom explores how the fight for narrative control in the digital age is changing the very fabric of truth and consensus, raising big questions about manufactured consent and the chaos of competing realities. The conversation doesn't stop there. Tom and Drew tackle charged issues around immigration and law enforcement, reacting to Stephen Miller's fiery CNN appearance and weighing in on the complexities—and consequences—of labeling protesters as domestic terrorists. They also dig into alarming new job loss data, discussing whether America is already in a stealth recession and what it means for workers, entrepreneurs, and the broader economy. Rounding things out, the guys look internationally, breaking down new reports that Chinese President Xi Jinping's grip on power may be slipping, and what that could mean for the ongoing trade war with the US. Tom shares his thoughts on leadership, the need for shared national narratives, and the vital importance of economic reform.

Employee engagement metrics have barely moved in over a decade, but what if we're measuring the wrong things? Nikki sits down with Joshua Freedman, CEO of Six Seconds and author of the soon-to-drop “Emotion Rules”. Together, they go deep on why engagement isn't about snacks in the breakroom or slick surveys. It's emotional, and it's human. They unpack why “leave emotions at the door” might be the worst business advice ever, what true caring leadership looks like, and how love, trust, and boundaries create high-performing cultures where people actually want to show up. If you're ready to trade performative leadership for authentic connection, this episode is your roadmap.

In an era where “understanding everyone's feelings” often replaces holding standards, Andrew and I unpack how good intentions can quietly corrupt outcomes. The conversation cuts through the noise of soft leadership to reveal a tougher truth: empathy without clarity creates confusion, resentment, and burnout.We trace how businesses drift from mission to maintenance, how leaders lose edge trying to be liked, and why clarity—not compassion—actually sustains culture. Andrew shares frameworks he's used to reintroduce accountability in teams that have “care fatigue,” where emotional overload blocks progress.This episode isn't anti-empathy. It's a reminder that empathy, like power, must be used with precision—or it turns toxic.TL;DR* Empathy becomes corruption when it excuses poor performance.* Great leaders balance compassion with consequence.* “Understanding” doesn't mean “accepting”—clarity builds trust faster.* Accountability is the highest form of respect.* Teams burn out when emotion replaces direction.* The fix: empathy guided by structure, not sentiment.Memorable Lines“Empathy without standards becomes permission for mediocrity.”“If you care about your people, hold them to the level they're capable of.”“Leaders don't lose teams by being firm—they lose them by being fuzzy.”“The real kindness is clarity.”GuestAndrew Oxley — Founder & Leadership Strategist, helping organizations rebuild cultures around accountability, clarity, and growth without sacrificing human connection.LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/andrew-oxley-tog/Website: http://www.transformingresults.comWhy This MattersWe've mistaken comfort for care. Real empathy isn't about protecting people from discomfort—it's helping them grow through it.When businesses learn to pair empathy with standards, they don't just get better performance—they get stronger humans.Call to ActionIf this conversation lit something up for you, don't just let it fade.

Leaders around the world have welcomed the ceasefire agreement. News of the deal was greeted with huge outbursts of joy in Hostages Square in Tel Aviv, where families have congregated for two years pressing for the release of Hamas captives. The overwhelming reaction in Gaza has been one of relief. Since the deadly October 7th attacks on Israel by Hamas, the Hamas-run health ministry in Gaza estimates that more than 67-thousand people have been killed by Israel's offensive with nearly a third of the dead under the age of 18. But there is also anxiety that, yet again, the ceasefire may not last. In other news, the former Radio 1 DJ, Tim Westwood, has been charged with rape and sexual assault. And the Home Office says it's "ramping up" its removal of migrants to France under a trial, one in one out scheme.

You know what no one tells you about being a leader? It's lonely as hell. Everyone looks to you for answers, for calm, for direction — but where do you go when you're running on fumes? Welcome, Pivoter. Let's get real. In this raw and emotional episode, April takes us behind the scenes of Collaborate 2025, where high performers and leaders came together to do something rare — drop their armor. No posturing, no highlight reels, no pretending to “have it all together.” Just truth, connection, and conversations that matter. This is a reflection on what happens when leaders stop performing strength and start sharing it. When we stop leading alone.  Key Takeaways Leadership Loneliness Is Real: Even the most successful leaders feel isolated. The myth of “figure it out alone” is what burns us out. Armor Down, Impact Up: True strength comes from vulnerability — not perfection. When we open up, we give others permission to do the same. Behind the Scenes at Collaborate: April shares the real moments from the event — the tears, the breakthroughs, the laughter — that reminded everyone they're not alone in the fight to lead well. Connection Is the 10X Multiplier: The biggest growth isn't from tactics or templates — it's from trusted rooms of peers who see you, challenge you, and lift you up. Redefining Leadership: The strongest leaders aren't the ones who never struggle — they're the ones who create safe spaces for others to be real too.  Actionable Items Find Your Room: Surround yourself with people who call you up, not just cheer you on. Real connection beats performative success every time. Check Your Armor: Ask yourself, “Where am I pretending to have it together when I don't?” That's your growth edge. Build Regular Reflection Time: Leadership doesn't just happen in meetings — it happens in the quiet moments where you assess your truth. Model Openness: Your team doesn't need your perfection — they need your humanity.   Collaborate 2025 wasn't just an event. It was a reminder that leadership without connection is unsustainable. The strongest leaders know when to lay down the shield, when to say, “me too,” and when to lean in for support. “Drop the mask. Keep the mission. You don't have to lead alone.”

Born from a push to professionalize policing, the FBI National Academy has evolved into a 10-week residential program where law enforcement leaders sharpen their fitness, academics and communication while building a global network. On this episode of Policing Matters, host Jim Dudley and two recent FBI NA graduates explore what the experience looks like today, from class selection and study habits to weekend field trips and the capstone Yellow Brick Road run. Hamilton Township, Ohio Chief Scott Hughes and retired California Chief Tricia Seyler reflect on their NA journeys, the mentors who nudged them to apply and the discipline it takes to thrive once you arrive. They discuss practical prep, why leaving your office behind is essential, how to make the most of the networking culture and what they brought back to their agencies.

What happens when senior executives step into a room and speak with radical candor? In this episode of Leveraging Thought Leadership, host Peter Winick sits down with Ken Banta, Founder and CEO of the Vanguard Network, to explore how real leaders grow stronger through dialogue—not monologues. Ken doesn't just advise on leadership—he builds ecosystems where executives learn directly from each other. The Vanguard Network creates peer-to-peer forums where GCs, CEOs, and senior leaders share their toughest challenges and unfiltered lessons. The power comes not from lectures or PowerPoint, but from raw, honest conversation. Members of his network walk away with two powerful outcomes. First, practical insights they can use immediately—solutions drawn from peers who've been there before. Second, the relief of knowing they're not alone. When a board chair demands instant answers, having the confidence that others face the same issues is invaluable. These conversations create resilience, credibility, and a stronger sense of leadership presence. Ken also shows how these networks spark new thought leadership. Dialogue around real problems fuels fresh ideas, posts, and even books like his "Seeing Around Corners". This isn't theory—it's leadership in action, captured and shared for broader impact. The results are tangible. Leaders leave with new strategies, new allies, and sometimes even new career opportunities. One member walked peers through a cyberattack disaster, openly admitting mistakes and lessons. Another two struck a career-changing deal over dinner. This is thought leadership at its highest level—intimate, applied, and deeply human. If you want to see how conversation transforms into influence, this episode is for you. Three Key Takeaways: • Dialogue beats monologue. Executives gain more from candid peer conversations than from lectures or presentations. • Leaders don't stand alone. Sharing challenges in trusted forums provides reassurance and practical solutions. • Conversations spark influence. Real stories and exchanges fuel new thought leadership, stronger presence, and fresh opportunities. If you found Ken Banta's episode insightful, you'll want to keep the momentum going with Karen Leland's conversation on the performance of thought leadership. Ken showed how peer-to-peer dialogue fuels fresh insights and builds executive presence. Karen takes it a step further, exploring how leaders can deliver their ideas with clarity, confidence, and authenticity so they truly land with an audience. Together, these two episodes connect the what and the how of thought leadership: Ken highlights the power of conversations that spark ideas, while Karen shows you how to perform those ideas so they inspire action. Listen to Karen's episode to learn practical strategies for elevating your communication, amplifying your presence, and making your thought leadership unforgettable.

Podcast Notes   Episode 486 The Wisdom Within Adaptation w/ Douglas Foltz Host: Brian Miller, PCC Guest: Doug Foltz Date: October 9, 2025 In this episode, Brian welcomes Douglas (Doug) Foltz, Head of Product at Church.tech, for a candid conversation about artificial intelligence and its impact on ministry, coaching, and human relationships. They explore the pace of AI innovation, ethical and theological implications for the Church, and how leaders can engage technology without losing the essence of humanity and connection. Key Highlights: Brian and Doug discuss the overwhelming speed of AI development and why even tech-savvy people feel left behind. Doug explains why organizations can't simply “wait out” AI trends, noting that innovation requires anticipating where the technology is heading. They examine how AI can enhance, not replace, human work—especially in coaching and ministry contexts. Doug shares how Church.tech is using AI tools to improve sermon clarity, logic, and trauma sensitivity without removing the human voice. The conversation turns to the importance of developing a “theology of humanity” to ensure technology strengthens relationships rather than deepening isolation. Takeaways: The Church must engage AI thoughtfully, grounding its use in a theology of work and human dignity. AI can be a valuable tool for refining and supporting ministry, but it should never substitute genuine human presence or spiritual connection. Leaders should discern ethical lines between using AI for assistance and outsourcing authenticity. True innovation in faith communities means designing technology that draws people closer—to one another and to God.   Stay Connected: Website: coachapproachministries.org Email: info@coachapproachministries.org LinkedIn: http://www.linkedin.com/company/coach-approach-ministries Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/coach.approach.ministries Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@coachapproachministries7538 Follow us on social media for updates and resources!

Tammy brings the hard hitting truth: Chaos might feel like momentum, but it's really just motion without meaning. In this fast-paced episode, she dives into the high cost of allowing stress, drama, and avoidant behaviors to run your workplace. Through personal anecdotes (like the story of "Frank"), Tammy explains why unsustainability is the ultimate price of chaos—affecting everything from turnover rates and sick leave to team productivity. This is a crucial lesson on self-regulation, clarity, and building a workplace where order restores energy and trust. 4 Costs of Chaos Chaos is Expensive: Chaos lacks sustainability. Leaders who use fear or high-pressure tactics get short-term results, but overall productivity drops, leading to increased turnover, higher sick leave, and loss of revenue. Unregulated Leaders Create Unregulated Teams: You cannot lead people out of stress while you are drowning in it. An unregulated leader models expected chaotic behavior, causing the team to become dysregulated, driving them to spend time job-searching instead of working. Communication in Chaos Becomes Cannibalistic: Fear-fed communication eats results for breakfast. When defensiveness (a form of fear-filled communication) becomes the norm, team members focus on self-preservation, eating away at collaboration, trust, and transformation. Regulation is Not Rigidity: Order restores energy, focus, and trust in your team. Regulation is about your "count-on-ability"—what your team can rely on from your reactions and responses. It's the opposite of being stuck; it's the foundation for agility. Actionable Tools & Quotes The Problem with Volatility and Vacancy: Both yelling and retreating are equally damaging. Vacancy (silence/shutting down) tells people they can't trust you, while volatility pushes them away. Leaders must find the regulated middle ground. The Key to Performance: "Healthy, actionable steps driving performance is a winning plan every single day." Your Self-Check: Ask your team: "What is your count-on-ability factor?" Look at your sick leave and turnover rates—these are chaos-driven numbers. Final Quote: "Fear-fed communication eats results for breakfast." Call to Action: Don't drive Q4 momentum with chaos. Drive it with curiosity and clarity. I unapologetically ask bold questions and challenge assumptions to help leaders rethink what they thought was true!

In this episode, Ruth and returning guest Jay Kim explore the intersection of technology and community within the church. They discuss the nuances of digital and in-person church experiences, the impact of the pandemic on church attendance and engagement, and the idea that “digital informs and analog transforms.” As always, they end by offering questions to ponder this week as it pertains to technology and community.   Questions to ponder this week:  What is the one barrier that keeps you from getting up and going and being with a church community? And then when you identify that barrier, is that barrier really worthwhile?   In our community, for our community, what is appropriate for digitized delivery, or technological delivery and what must be done in person to be effective?   We're back for Season 27, titled “Taming our Technologies: [Spiritual] Practices for a Digital Age.” This season we have a special co-host, pastor, author, and podcast host Jay Y.

Most Arizonans see the end of summer as a reprieve. But for some, it's a sign of survival. Since 2020, at least 270 people in Maricopa County have died at home when their cooling systems failed or were shut off completely.

In “Sales Insights for Logistics Leaders”, Joe Lynch and Trey Griggs, Founder and Chief Encouragement Officer of BETA Consulting Group,  discuss the strategy for logistics leaders to build a trusted brand and create sales momentum using clear messaging, social proof (testimonials), and self-awareness to replace reliance on their shrinking professional network. About Trey Griggs Trey Griggs is the Founder and Chief Encouragement Officer of BETA Consulting Group, dedicated to building great brands within the transportation industry.

Key Takeaways: Sales Insights for Logistics Leaders In “Sales Insights for Logistics Leaders”, Joe Lynch and Trey Griggs, Founder and Chief Encouragement Officer of BETA Consulting Group,  discuss the strategy for logistics leaders to build a trusted brand and create sales momentum using clear messaging, social proof (testimonials), and self-awareness to replace reliance on their shrinking professional network. Shift from Network Selling to a True Marketing Engine: Selling exclusively to your existing network in logistics eventually hits a wall. Sustainable, massive sales momentum requires building a defined marketing engine that consistently generates brand awareness, trust, and a predictable pipeline of high-intent buyers. Foundational Messaging is the Sales Accelerator: Logistics companies must move away from confusing industry jargon. Leaders should adopt clear, customer-centric messaging frameworks (like Storybrand) to ensure prospects immediately understand the problem being solved and the solution offered, thereby reducing the sales cycle and increasing engagement. Social Proof is the New Sales Pitch: Relying on sales reps alone is inefficient. Logistics leaders must proactively build social proof—primarily through customer testimonial videos—to let clients do the selling. This "social proof" builds immediate trust and credibility, especially in the technology sector. Self-Awareness Drives Sales Leadership: Effective sales leadership in logistics technology is rooted in self-awareness. Leaders who understand their personal strengths and weaknesses are better equipped to coach their teams, build strong personal brands, and create a culture of intentional, rather than reactive, sales performance. Build a Brand, Not Just a Sales Team: In a crowded logistics technology market, the brand is the lead generator. Focus your consulting and content efforts on building a known and trusted brand that attracts high-quality buyers who are already predisposed to work with you. The Breadth of Logistics Tech Knowledge Matters: For sales teams selling technology (TMS, Visibility, RPA), deep knowledge across the entire freight ecosystem is crucial. Leaders must ensure their teams can speak fluently about complex solutions to both brokers and carriers to position their product effectively. Embrace the Coach's Mindset: Drawing from his background as a teacher and coach, Trey emphasizes that sales leaders should prioritize coaching and development. Instilling discipline and a focus on core sales techniques is the key to creating a team that consistently exceeds goals, regardless of market volatility.

In this special 100th episode, Tom and co-host Drew dive deep into today's most pressing issues—from the chaos of government shutdowns and the relentless battle over healthcare, to the power of propaganda in mainstream media and the economic forces shaping our society. They break down the realities behind headline-grabbing policies, exposing how both sides of the political spectrum spin the narrative and why it's critical to do your own research before forming opinions. You'll hear Tom's unfiltered take on the dangers of “revolutionary empathy,” inspired by Eric Weinstein's insights, and how shifts in empathy and radical polarization are fueling a climate ripe for violence and unrest. The conversation also explores the harsh truths of wealth inequality, the illusion of economic progress, and why the stock market's highs aren't translating to a better life for most Americans. Drew brings in sharp counterpoints and timely clips—touching on everything from mass media censorship to the controversial culture wars playing out in children's entertainment and on social platforms. Plus, there's a candid look at the escalation of global conflicts, particularly in Ukraine, and how warfare is evolving in ways that stretch far beyond the battlefield. Through it all, Tom emphasizes the importance of personal empowerment: how individuals can still win—economically and mentally—despite a society seemingly stacked against them. Buckle up for an intense, eye-opening, and occasionally hilarious episode packed with actionable advice, hard truths, and a call to cut through the noise in pursuit of real understanding.

What kind of founder drives a U-Haul full of perishable product through the desert at 3 A.M.… and calls it progress? That's the kind of relentless, purpose-driven hustle behind Forager Project, the plant-based food and beverage company reshaping what dairy-free can taste and feel like. In this episode, co-founders Stephen Williamson and JC Hanley open up about the mission-fueled (and occasionally messy) evolution of their brand, from cold-pressed juice to cashew-based yogurts and creamers that compete head-on with dairy. They discuss what it really takes to build a standout CPG brand in saturated categories, why “project” is still part of their name, and how lessons from prior businesses and discontinued product lines have shaped their approach. They also explain why they walked away from juice, how they knew yogurt was the future, what it means to innovate with both a moral compass and a culinary one and how they define success. Show notes: 0:25: Interview: Stephen Williamson & JC Hanley, Co-Founders, Forager Project – In a conversation hosted at Forager Project's office in San Francisco, Stephen and JC discuss how the brand was created by a desire to create clean, minimally processed, plant-based foods and how “project” reflects their ethos of exploration and ongoing improvement. The founders recount their early days launching Forager Project in 2013, initially inspired by the ultra-premium juice space before pivoting – what they describe as “foraging” – into new categories. They explain how they began fermenting plant-based ingredients, particularly cashews, to create plant-based yogurts, and have since expanded into Greek-style yogurts and creamers. Stephen and JC emphasize an innovation philosophy rooted in clean, organic ingredients, including vegetables, nuts, seeds and ancient grains, and talk about the grit and craziness required to build a mission-driven company. They note how – despite challenges like tariffs, competition, and changing categories – they've remained focused on their mission: to help replace animal dairy with plant-based alternatives. They close with a broader reflection on success and staying true to their values.

The Drive opened the show pointing out how in losses it is the Chiefs leaders who have failed them in most all their losses in 2025.

With federal funding being pulled back, leaders of Pennsylvania’s top labor unions push state policy to deliver clean energy jobs. --- For generations, union members have mined Pennsylvania’s coal, run its power plants, and built its energy infrastructure, helping make the state a top fossil fuel producer and electricity exporter. Now, renewable energy offers the promise of growth, but questions remain about the long-term jobs it will provide. In 2024, the Pennsylvania AFL-CIO and the Building and Construction Trades Council formed Union Energy, with support from the Climate Jobs National Resource Center. The coalition was launched to leverage the Inflation Reduction Act to ensure new clean energy investment creates good-paying union jobs and broad community benefits. But with federal funding now being pulled back, state policy is now central. In Pennsylvania, where clean energy targets haven’t been updated in two decades, Governor Josh Shapiro has proposed a “Lightning Plan” with new standards, a cap-and-invest program, and streamlined permitting. Union Energy wants to help shape what comes next. On the podcast, Union Energy’s leaders — Angela Ferritto, president of the Pennsylvania AFL-CIO, and Robert Bair, president of the Pennsylvania Building Trades — discuss the impact of recent policy shifts on their members, policies to expand clean energy with strong labor standards, and their vision for Pennsylvania’s energy future.

In this conversation, Phil Brown and Jimmy Burroughes delve into the critical issue of burnout in the workplace, exploring its definitions, symptoms, personal experiences, and the broader implications for organizations. They discuss the alarming statistics surrounding employee engagement and burnout, emphasizing the need for effective strategies to combat these issues. Jimmy shares his personal journey through burnout and the lessons learned, while also providing actionable advice for leaders and organizations to foster a healthier work environment. The conversation highlights the importance of understanding burnout not just as an individual issue, but as a systemic challenge that affects overall organizational health and productivity.   Burnout is defined by the imbalance between expectations and ability. Key symptoms of burnout include anxiety, isolation, and a lack of care. Many high achievers are at risk of burnout due to their commitment. The workplace has become more demanding, leading to increased burnout rates. Effective communication and role clarity are essential in preventing burnout. Leaders must model healthy boundaries and the ability to say no. Creating headspace is crucial for reflection and prioritization. Simplifying processes can help teams work more effectively. Reducing burnout can significantly enhance productivity and engagement. Organizations must recognize the financial implications of burnout.

No one is coming to save you. The moment you realize that is the moment you step into your true power as a leader. In this episode of Reflect Forward, I explore the life changing power of radical responsibility. As leaders, we all have moments when we wish someone else would fix the problem, make the decision, or show us the path forward. But waiting for someone to rescue us kills momentum. True leadership begins when we stop waiting and start owning. I talk about how to recognize when you have slipped into victim thinking, how to catch yourself in that moment, and how to reclaim your sense of agency. You will learn how to listen for the subtle signals that you are giving away your power, especially when you hear yourself saying “Yeah, but.” That phrase is the telltale sign that you have moved from ownership to avoidance. This episode will help you build the mindset of accountability and confidence that defines great leaders. It is about shifting from “Why will someone not fix this?” to “What is my next step?” and realizing that you already have everything you need to lead yourself and your team forward. As Winston Churchill once said, “The price of greatness is responsibility.” Taking ownership for your choices, your reactions, and your mindset is how you become the kind of leader others want to follow. Research backs this up. A McKinsey study found that companies with leaders who embrace ownership and accountability are 4.9 times more likely to outperform their peers in overall performance. Accountability is not just about personal growth; it is a competitive advantage. Key Takeaways 1. Ownership starts where excuses end. The moment you stop waiting for rescue, you start leading. 2. Catch your “yeah, but.” It is the red flag of victim thinking. Pause, reframe, and act. 3. Ask the three ownership questions: • What part of this situation can I own right now? • If no one else steps in, what is the best step I can take today? • Am I choosing to be a victim or the leader who changes it? 4. Clarity beats control. You cannot control circumstances, but you can always control your response. 5. Leaders go first. When you model accountability, you build a culture that owns results. Mic Drop Moments • “No one is coming to save you. The moment you realize that is the moment you step into your true power as a leader.” • “Leadership begins when we stop waiting and start owning.” • “If you could kick the person in the pants responsible for most of your trouble, you would not sit for a month.” — Theodore Roosevelt • “You cannot change the circumstances, the seasons, or the wind, but you can change yourself.” — Jim Rohn If this episode resonated with you, please share it with someone who needs this reminder.

How do we unlock the real promise of AI in construction and design? Recorded live at Autodesk University 2025 in Nashville, this conversation with Dara Treseder, CMO of Autodesk, explores the importance of good technology paired with the right culture to allow innovation to thrive. When AI's potential meets human ingenuity inside the right environment, that's where the magic happens. It's a rising tide that lifts all boats, accelerating opportunities, resilience, and impact across the industry. Highlights from the Conversation Why culture is the foundation for innovation to flourish How AI plus human creativity creates exponential opportunities Why resilience and adaptability matter more than ever in times of change Practical ways to make the future tangible today, not tomorrow A vision for impact that empowers everyone, not just a few MEET OUR GUEST Dara Treseder is the Chief Marketing Officer of Autodesk, where she leads global marketing, brand, and customer engagement. Named one of the world's most influential CMOs, Dara has a track record of helping organizations harness technology, culture, and creativity to drive impact. At Autodesk, she champions opportunities for customers to embrace AI, adapt to change, and model the future with confidence and purpose.   TODD TAKES AI Is Moving From Hype to Reality We've officially crossed the line where AI is no longer just a buzzword—it's showing up in real workflows, saving time, and driving better decisions on the jobsite. The winners will be those who don't treat AI as “just another cool technology” but as a tool to solve real customer problems. The pace of change over the last six months proves this isn't optional—it's here to stay. Authenticity Builds Trust The construction industry has no time for hype cycles. What resonates are real customer stories and tangible outcomes. By rooting messaging in authenticity, showing how real companies achieve results—leaders build the trust that's necessary for change. True influence comes from proving value, not promoting features. Innovation Requires Trust and Culture Adopting new technology isn't just about tools—it's about creating a culture where people feel safe to take risks and try new approaches. Change is hard because most people fear it will make things worse. Leaders need to model trust, create psychological safety, and show that innovation makes life easier, not harder. That's the culture where real transformation happens.   More Resources  Thanks for listening! Please be sure to leave a rating and/or review and follow up our social accounts.
