Men and women are different, and as believers, we need to embrace that truth. We can affirm it with our words, but when we live as though there is no distinction—treating women as the same as men and men as the same as women—we undermine our confession. Gender confusion is affecting the church just as much as it is the world.

In this episode, we return to the updated Inner Development Goals (IDG), and reflect on what has changed, why it matters and how IDG is now even more relevant for leaders that want to develop resilient leadership.Why IDG mattersToday leaders are not primarily challenged by 'technical problems' where clear solutions exist. Instead they face adaptive challenges in an increasingly complex, interconnected, and fast-moving world.IDG answers: What inner capacities do leaders need in order to lead resilient, human-centered organisations in this complex environment?5 dimensions of IDGBEING – Cultivating Our Inner LifeAt the core is Being, highlighting that leadership starts with who we are. The revised wording emphasizes development as an ongoing practice. Skills such as inner compass, self-awareness, and presence may sound obvious, but require continuous reflection. Without them, leadership easily stays on the surface.THINKING – Understanding Our Complex WorldThinking is no longer framed as cognitive skill alone, but as understanding complexity. The shift towards systems thinking reflects today's reality: leaders face adaptive challenges. Leadership becomes less about control and more about sense-making and framing the right questions so collective intelligence can emerge.RELATING – Caring for Others and the WorldThis dimension reflects a fundamentally different image of leadership: not dominance or certainty, but care, humanity, and relational maturity. Alongside empathy, humility, and compassion, forgiveness has been added as a key skill.COLLABORATING – Building Trust and Working TogetherThe collaborating dimension has been reframed to place trust at its centre. Trust is no longer treated as a skill in itself, but as an outcome of behaviors such as relationship-building, inclusion, communication, and co-creation.ACTING – Leading and Enabling ChangeThe final dimension focuses on enabling action, not driving it. Skills like courage, hope & optimism, and resilience point to leadership as creating conditions where people can act.A living guide for leadersThe IDG is not a finished model, like leadership itself, it continues to evolve. Used as a self-assessment or reflection tool, it helps leaders identify strengths, development areas, and how leadership can be shared across an organization.Working with Second Crack and IDGWe increasingly use IDG in our work. Its strength lies in its simplicity, shared language, and ability to quickly open deep, meaningful conversations about leadership behavior and culture.

2025 was an exceptional year for many leaders: more results in less time, multiple transformations at once, rising uncertainty and a level of exhaustion that was felt across entire organizations. In this episode of the LEITWOLF® Podcast, Stefan reflects on what this year has revealed about effective leadership – and what you can change in 2026 to lead with greater impact. He discusses why so many organizations slipped into overload, why psychological safety has become the core currency of high-performing teams and how AI amplifies leadership rather than replacing it. Stefan also shares personal moments from 2025 – from powerful experiences on global stages to remarkable team transformations and his own lessons as an entrepreneur. An honest and practical episode about finding clarity in turbulent times, reducing noise, and turning 2026 into your strongest year as a leader.

Business - Rahul Karan Sharma- Leadership Development Expert

What if one of the most overlooked leadership behaviors was also one of the most powerful drivers of engagement, performance, and retention?In this episode of Shedding the Corporate Bitch, we reframe gratitude from being “nice” to being strategic. Backed by research from Harvard, Gallup, and the University of Pennsylvania, this conversation breaks down why leaders who fail to recognize effort quietly erode culture — and how intentional gratitude can transform results, morale, and loyalty.Time Stamps & Key Talking Points00:00 – Why Gratitude Shapes Leadership Legacy People may forget what you say or do, but they never forget how you make them feel, Gratitude as an emotional leadership lever04:00 – The #1 Thing Employees Ask For Why employees just want to be seen, The underestimated power of “thank you”09:00 – A 50% Productivity Increase University of Pennsylvania research, Adam Grant's findings on gratitude13:00 – The Three Unspoken Employee Questions Do I matter?, Does my work matter?, Do you even notice?18:00 – Fuel the Climb, Not Just the Win Recognizing effort and progress, not just outcomes19:00 – Modeling Gratitude as a Leader Why leaders set the emotional standard, Behavior gets mirrored24:30 – The Real Question Leaders Must Ask Can you afford the absence of gratitude?26:00 – Leadership Reflection Challenge What went unnoticed?, What culture are you quietly building?28:00 – Final Takeaway Gratitude isn't changing who you are, It's changing what you noticeCall to Actions

In this powerful, no-fluff conversation, Dr. Alisa dives into a truth most entrepreneurs try to avoid: your business will never outgrow your mindset.This episode unpacks why branding is not about logos, colors, or aesthetics—but about identity, alignment, and ownership. When leaders skip the inner work, the business eventually stalls. When identity is clear, influence compounds.You'll hear real talk about:Why consistency—not motivation—is the real differentiatorHow entrepreneurs sabotage growth by expecting success to be easyThe mindset shift required to stop outsourcing responsibility for resultsWhy brand evolution must start at the identity level, not the surface levelHow value creation, service, and profit must coexist for sustainable impactThis episode is for founders, leaders, and creators who are done chasing shortcuts and ready to build something that lasts—from the inside out.

This episode is about something almost everyone in direct selling feels but very few talk about directly.The profession stalled because we stopped developing leaders.For decades, leadership development was the heartbeat of this business. Companies didn't just build volume. They built people. They grew workhorses. They created depth. They had systems that turned a brand-new rep into a builder, and eventually into a leader.The systems were simple. They were clear. They were culture driven.And then everything shifted.Social media exploded. Branding took over. Attraction marketing became the obsession.And almost overnight, the focus moved from developing leaders to promoting personalities.Today most companies teach posting, selling, attracting. Few teach how to lead. Few teach how to coach. Almost none teach how to duplicate beyond personality.And that's the real problem.When companies stop developing leaders, they start buying them. They start chasing racehorses instead of building workhorses.It feels faster in the moment. It never lasts.You cannot import depth. You cannot shortcut culture. You cannot purchase loyalty.When development disappears, duplication dies. Teams become dependent on the loudest voices instead of shared principles. Culture turns reactive. Burnout becomes normal.Personal development builds the person. Leadership development multiplies the leader. You need both, or neither one works.The companies that win the next decade will return to this foundation. They will rebuild systems that grow people from the inside out. They will invest in mentorship, not just marketing. They will pair skill training with mindset training. They will stop waiting for influencers to save them and start developing their own depth again.Duplication doesn't come from followers. It comes from frameworks.That's why the real test for every leader and every company is simple:Are we developing leaders, or just buying them?And if you're a six-figure or multiple-six-figure leader who's serious about building depth, not just volume, I built a place specifically for you.It's called ICON Mastermind. This is where top earners come to level up leadership, rebuild systems, create duplication, and grow in a room where everyone is playing at the same level.It's application only, and it's only for six-figure earners and above.You can apply at: www.iconmastermind.comIf you want to become the kind of leader this profession desperately needs again, that's the room.

Are your team members clear about what you really expect from them? In this compelling conversation, you'll hear Megan Robinson share how confusion and unspoken assumptions can erode trust and productivity—and what leaders can do to prevent that.  You'll hear how Megan helps leaders transform vague expectations into specific, teachable behaviors that drive growth. She also reveals why “professional guilt” often holds leaders back and how to replace it with curiosity and compassion. If you've ever wondered how to give feedback that builds confidence instead of defensiveness, this episode will give you practical insights and stories you'll want to remember. Megan is the Founder at E Leader Experience and works with individuals and teams to develop self-leadership skills that grow companies. She started her career in marketing and climbed her way through the corporate ladder at advertising agencies and Fortune 500 companies. Then she caught the entrepreneur bug and started her own marketing company.  After yet another “Business Therapy” session, Megan discovered her true passion was in coaching. Inspired by her own successful career in corporate and entrepreneurial environments, she makes leadership approachable for everyone, regardless of title, position, or experience. Megan is also the host of the Culture Connections Podcast and the Past President of ATD Chicago, the leading learning and development organization in Chicagoland.  You'll discover: Why feedback fails when leaders assume understandingHow to turn performance gaps into learning opportunitiesThe role of clarity and language in setting expectationsSimple ways to test assumptions and create shared meaningHow self-awareness and intention make feedback transformativeCheck out all the episodesLeave a review on Apple PodcastsConnect with Meredith on LinkedInFollow Meredith on TwitterDownload the free ebook Listen Like a Pro

In this episode, Steve Fretzin and Charlie Gaudet discuss:Moving beyond hard work toward sustainable growthEscaping the founder-centered business modelOutperforming talent using systems Protecting time as the highest-leverage asset Key Takeaways:Hard work eventually becomes a liability when it replaces strategy, systems, and recovery. Sustainable growth requires designing the business so it scales without destroying the founder's health or capacity.Businesses stall when the founder becomes the bottleneck for decisions, delivery, and growth. Long-term scale only happens when systems and teams replace heroic individual effort.Top performers win not because they work harder, but because their systems reduce variation and create consistency. Documented, measurable processes turn small improvements into repeatable, compounding gains.Return on Time matters more than effort, activity, or hours worked. Delegation, automation, and pricing strategy free leaders to focus on high-impact thinking instead of constant execution. "They have to look at ROT, which is return on time… Where are they spending the time, and how do they maximize their time?… Raise your rate… leverage AI… More and more attorneys are able to get more done in less time when they can leverage AI in the right way." —  Charlie Gaudet Check out my new show, Be That Lawyer Coaches Corner, and get the strategies I use with my clients to win more business and love your career again. Ready to go from good to GOAT in your legal marketing game?

Forget the “new year, new you” slogans. We trade hype for honesty and design a year that actually fits your values and energy. We start by reframing 2025 with a pride audit: the tough moments you handled with more grace, the people you helped, and the places you chose integrity over convenience. That grounding matters because leaders often spot gaps faster than growth, and without pride, we keep chasing the next milestone without ever arriving.From there, we run a clean truth audit—no shame, just ownership. What did you call important but never scheduled? Which habits drained your best energy? We unpack the long game and why consistency beats intensity. Drawing on Atomic Habits, we shift from outcome obsession to identity and systems: the real flex is the small habit you don't break. We explore the math of compounding and the mindset that keeps you steady when motivation fades.We also bring in a powerful lens on courage from Emmy-winning broadcaster and author Anne-Marie Anderson. Audacity isn't recklessness; it's aligned, season-aware boldness. You'll define one brave Q1 swing, then make it practical with the Three Wins Weekly framework—one win for work, one for health, one for relationships—and protect them with time blocks that match your natural rhythms. Add Michael Bungay Stanier's minimum viable start to break inertia, and layer Brendan Burchard's daily intentionality so you show up how your team needs: curious, inspiring, or decisive. We close with a tight 2026 plan: choose a compass word, pick three outcomes, build weekly systems and accountability, and lock in that audacious move.Ready to stop living by default and start living by design? Subscribe, share this with a colleague who needs a reset, and tell us your 2026 theme and your one bold swing. Let's build a year you're proud to live—one block, one habit, one courageous step at a time.Send us a textSupport the show✅ Follow The Leadership Project on your favourite podcast platform and listen to a new episode every week!

Ian Day, Expert in Coaching and Leadership Development, highlights the crucial shift leaders and coaches must make to thrive in a VUCA world. As co-author of Challenging Coaching, he emphasises that true leadership effectiveness comes from blending support with courageous challenge, all grounded in unconditional positive regard. In a landscape of volatility and need for adaptability, leaders can no longer play the lone rainmaker.

Pushing Above Average 3. Diving Into a Deep Hole We explore how adversity can shape us without defining us, why measurables matter when it comes to personal growth, and how confidence is built through consistent effort—not comfort.This conversation challenges listeners to eliminate excuses, examine their routines, and stop living in fear-based “what ifs.” Instead, we ask the better question: What if it works? If you're ready to raise the bar, push past average, and build a life you won't look back on with regret, this episode is for you.

In this episode of the Collective Leadership Podcast, Interim District Superintendent Omar Niebles sits down with Joel Koenigsberg, Director of Leadership Development, to explore the transformative practice of spiritual listening. Joel opens up about his personal journey—from struggling with distraction and the constant urge to fix problems, to discovering the profound impact of truly listening to God, others, and even himself.Drawing from his experiences with spiritual direction and the wisdom of James 1:19 ("be quick to listen, slow to speak"), Joel shares how spiritual listening has reshaped not only his personal walk with God but also his approach to church leadership. He discusses the power of asking "curious questions" rather than jumping to solutions, the importance of creating space for the Spirit to speak through conversations, and how slowing down can actually accelerate spiritual growth in both individual lives and congregational settings.Joel also addresses the unique challenges church leaders face—the pressure to have answers, the temptation to fill every silence, and the courage it takes to simply be present with people in their struggles. Whether you're leading a church, serving on a team, or simply wanting to become more present in your relationships, this conversation offers invaluable insights on how spiritual listening can transform the way we connect with God and others.

You don't hire a COO like Tori Grimm, you grow her. This conversation walks you through how a frontline CA can evolve into the operations leader who holds your entire team, builds structure, and frees you up to lead. You'll hear how Tori moved from check-in, to checkout, to office manager, to COO, and what it took on both sides to make that identity shift feel real instead of forced.Together, Dr. Lona and Tori unpack practical ways to give your team real autonomy without losing accountability, use simple scorecards and one-on-ones to keep everyone aligned, and spot the people who are quietly asking for more responsibility through their actions. They also talk about how personal transformation through care, philosophy events, and TRP immersions keeps your CAs connected to the “big idea” so the chaos feels worth it. If you're ready to stop being the bottleneck and start nurturing your own Tori, this one will hit home.Key Highlights00:53 – Hear how Tori's first team meeting PowerPoint showed she was already thinking like a leader and raised the bar for everyone.01:58 – Learn how she moved from check-in CA to exams, checkout and financials, then into office manager and COO while still supporting the front desk.03:58 – Explore the identity shift from “I do everything” owner to true CEO and COO, and why claiming the leader seat can feel so vulnerable.05:13 – See how giving CAs decision-making autonomy inside clear guardrails helps them feel like the conductor of their own ship, not just an order taker.06:58 – Understand how bottlenecks show up at every level and why adding virtual CAs and a virtual assistant created more flow without losing culture.08:33 – Learn how monthly one-on-ones, simple scorecards, and short written summaries keep everyone aligned while looping the CEO in without extra meetings.10:28 – Hear how different communication styles between CEO and COO help team members feel heard in different ways and surface issues before they explode.12:23 – Find out what to look for when growing leaders from within: follow-through, appetite for more, strong relationships, and consistent execution in their current role.14:03 – Learn why staged ascension, executive assistant time, and steady mentoring conversations made it safer for Tori to step into bigger leadership.16:13 – See how Tori's own healing story, philosophy seminars, and TRP immersions anchored her belief in the work so the “octopus on roller skates” life still feels meaningful18:22 - ​​Dr. Lona sits down with Success Partner Dr. Brian Capra of ClinicMind to talk about how one unified platform can replace the long list of tools most chiropractors' juggle. Dr. Brian explains how ClinicMind brings EHR, billing, AI-driven patient communication, scheduling, and marketing under one system so teams can stay focused on care instead of tech headaches. It's a smart look at how streamlined systems create space for clinics to grow, serve more people, and operate with far greater ease. Resources MentionedFor more information about ClinicMind please visit: www.clinicmind.comTo schedule a Strategy Session with Dr Lona: https://go.oncehub.com/DrLonaBuildPodcastTo schedule a Strategy Session with Dr Bobby: https://go.oncehub.com/DrBobbyBuildPodcastLearn more about the Remarkable CEO Podcast: https://theremarkablepractice.com/podcast

2025 war für viele Führungskräfte ein Ausnahmejahr: mehr Ergebnis in weniger Zeit, mehrere Transformationen parallel, hohe Unsicherheit und spürbare Erschöpfung in vielen Teams. In dieser Folge des LEITWOLF® Podcasts schaut Stefan darauf, was dieses Jahr über gutes Führen gezeigt hat – und was Du 2026 bewusst anders machen kannst. Er spricht darüber, warum so viele Organisationen in eine Überlastungsspirale geraten sind, wieso psychologische Sicherheit zur Kernwährung moderner Teams geworden ist und wie KI als Verstärker wirkt, nicht als Ersatz für Führung. Gleichzeitig teilt Stefan sehr persönliche Erfahrungen aus 2025 – von bewegenden Momenten auf internationalen Bühnen über beeindruckende Teamtransformationen bis hin zu eigenen Lernschritten als Unternehmer.

In this episode of The extra-Ordinary Leader, I'm joined by Sophie Bowen, Head of Learning & Development at COOK Trading Ltd, a business widely recognised for its award-winning culture, human-centred leadership and long-term commercial success.Sophie has spent 15 years inside COOK, embedding learning and development into the fabric of the business rather than treating it as a bolt-on or a ‘nice to have'. Together, we explore what extra-Ordinary leadership really looks like when growth, culture and profit are genuinely aligned.We talk candidly about why learning fails when it sits on the sidelines, how values become meaningless when they're written about people instead of with them, and why the most powerful leadership development often happens without classrooms, PowerPoint or big budgets.This conversation is for leaders who want to build organisations where people don't just perform, but thrive.You'll hear us explore leadership through context, reflection, constraint, culture and courage – and why the work always starts with the leader themselves.Inside This EpisodeWhat extra-Ordinary leadership really means in complex, multi-site organisationsWhy leaders must create conditions for growth, not control outcomesThe danger of treating learning and development as a KPI or add-onHow COOK embeds learning directly into business strategy and cultureWhy values fail when they're written top-down instead of co-createdThe power of constraint: why small budgets often drive better leadership developmentWhy reflection matters more than content in leadership growthHow Gen Z is reshaping productivity, motivation and expectations of leadershipWhy learning doesn't need classrooms to be effectiveThe leadership lesson hidden in a cricket ballGuest: Sophie Bowen – Head of Learning & Development, COOK Trading Ltd LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sophie-bowen?originalSubdomain=ukReferenced concepts & resources: COOK Trading Ltd: https://www.cookfood.netIkigai (Japanese concept of purpose): https://positivepsychology.com/ikigai/My book: The extra-Ordinary Leader https://www.dollywaddell.com/store/p/the-extra-ordinary-leaderIf this episode resonates and you're rethinking how leadership, learning and culture show up in your organisation, do reach out.

Have you ever looked successful on paper… yet felt like something was quietly off behind the scenes? Like you were winning the game, but not really winning at life? That's exactly the tension we unpack in this episode and trust me, it goes way deeper than money or business tactics.In this episode of The Happy Hustle Podcast, I sit down with my good friend Ben Wilson for a real, grounded, no-BS conversation about wealth, legacy, faith, and what it actually means to live a life that feels aligned. Ben is the Owner and Broker of Team Wilson Real Estate Partners and one of the most intentional humans I know. His team owns and manages over $300 million in real estate assets and has surpassed $1 billion in total sales, but what really stood out to me from the moment we met wasn't the numbers. It was how he shows up as a husband, father, leader, and man of faith. This episode matters because Ben doesn't just talk about success; he lives it in a way that doesn't sacrifice family, integrity, or joy along the way.We dive into how pain, not ambition, was the catalyst that led Ben into real estate and ultimately reshaped his entire approach to life. One of the biggest takeaways is the idea that you can be “winning” financially and still be losing if you don't understand the rules of the game you're playing. Ben breaks down a powerful framework using the baseball diamond to explain why character has to come first, community second, and contribution third, and how reversing that order creates chaos, stress, and burnout.Another huge lesson from this conversation is Ben's seven non-negotiables for life and leadership. Simple on the surface, but profound in practice: show up, be consistent, have a great attitude, commit for the long haul, live with faith and passion, be willing to pay the price, and always do the next right thing. These aren't motivational quotes. They're daily filters Ben uses to guide his family, his businesses, and his decisions.We also talk deeply about legacy not as something you leave someday, but something you live right now. Ben shares why he believes true wealth is about building enough resources to create harmony across mind, body, and spirit, so you can ultimately give it all away. And maybe my favorite part of the episode? The reminder that fun isn't optional. It's strategic. Focus, fearlessness, and freedom aren't just nice ideas. They're the formula for a life that actually feels worth living.This conversation is packed with wisdom for entrepreneurs, leaders, and anyone who wants more than just financial success. If you're building a business, raising a family, or trying to figure out how to do both without losing yourself in the process, this episode will meet you right where you are.What does Happy Hustlin mean to you? Ben says I chose to leave a job so that I could pursue my calling each and every day and literally share it with the world and fill everybody's cup, including my own.Connect with Benhttp://www.facebook.com/TeamWilsonRealEstatehttps://www.instagram.com/teamwilsonrep/https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCiIiynkk0Gw_rBhFZ1ZHN2ghttps://www.instagram.com/teamwilsonrep/https://twitter.com/TeamWilsonREPFind Ben on this website: https://www.teamwilsontn.com/Connect with Cary!https://www.instagram.com/caryjack/https://www.facebook.com/SirCaryJackhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/cary-jack-kendzior/https://twitter.com/thehappyhustlehttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFDNsD59tLxv2JfEuSsNMOQ/featured Get a free copy of his new book, The Happy Hustle, 10 Alignments to Avoid Burnout & Achieve Blissful Balance https://www.thehappyhustle.com/bookSign up for The Journey: 10 Days To Become a Happy Hustler Online Coursehttps://thehappyhustle.com/thejourney/Apply to the Montana Mastermind Epic Camping Adventurehttps://thehappyhustle.com/mastermind/“It's time to Happy Hustle, a blissfully balanced life you love, full of passion, purpose, and positive impact!”Episode Sponsors:If you're feeling stressed, not sleeping great, or your energy's been kinda meh lately—let me put you on to something that's been a total game-changer for me: Magnesium Breakthrough by BiOptimizers.

What if love—not control—was the driving force behind your leadership? In this thought-provoking conversation, Trevor Timbeck invites you to explore leadership through the lens of “loving as a verb.” Co-author of The Power of Love with Steve Chandler, Trevor explains how viewing love as an action, rather than a static feeling, can transform the way you lead, parent, and connect with others. He shares how a simple question—“What would love do?”—can shift your mindset in moments of frustration, helping you respond with awareness and compassion instead of reaction or control. You'll hear Trevor and Meredith discuss what he calls “emotioning,” a way of understanding emotion as a domain of action rather than a feeling to be managed. Through personal stories of parenting and coaching leaders, Trevor reveals how genuine leadership emerges from acceptance and presence, not authority or demand. His insights challenge conventional thinking about power, control, and influence, offering a refreshing and deeply human perspective on what it means to lead with love. You'll discover: Why love is a powerful verb—not just a feelingHow to shift from controlling to allowing in leadershipWhat “emotioning” means and how it shapes your actionsHow asking “What would love do?” can change any situationWhy true leadership begins with awareness and acceptanceCheck out all the episodesLeave a review on Apple PodcastsConnect with Meredith on LinkedInFollow Meredith on TwitterDownload the free ebook Listen Like a Pro

"Israel does not have a blank check according to the judgement of God."--Keith Tucci. All people, including Jews, are saved only by the cross of Christ. While we do share a deep theological connection, that does not mean we must agree with or support everything Israel does. Like any nation, Israel has the right to defend its borders and pursue those who seek to destroy it. Even more significantly, that land is the cradle of Christianity—it is where God chose to enter the world in human flesh.

Most founders obsess over ideas.Breakthrough companies obsess over inflections, conviction, and structure.This episode unpacks Pattern Breakers by Mike Maples Jr.—a book that quietly explains why most startups never break out… and why a small minority reshape entire categories.But this isn't a book summary.It's a thinking upgrade for founders, operators, board members, and investors navigating the most fragile phase of company building: Series A to IPO, where timing, conviction, and structure matter more than features or pitch decks.Across seven tightly structured lessons, this episode explores how pattern-breaking companies are built before the world is ready for them—and why success is rarely about genius ideas, and almost always about seeing the future early and designing for it deliberately.You'll hear why:breakthroughs start with external inflections, not internal brainstormingwinning companies are non-consensus and right, long before they're popularmovements outperform products when markets get noisyMVPs test interest, but prototypes test desperationproductive disagreeableness protects insight when pressure risescorporate success quietly creates biases that kill innovationand why structure—not culture—is the hidden lever behind breakthroughsEach lesson is grounded in real company examples, translated into today's market reality, and finished with coaching questions you can use immediately—in leadership meetings, boardrooms, or investment decisions.Key TakeawaysInflections Beat Ideas Breakthrough timing comes from external change, not creativity.Non-Consensus Is the Signal If everyone agrees, upside is already gone.Movements Outrun Products Identity compounds longer than features.Test Desperation, Not Interest Scalability starts with craving, not curiosity.Protect Conviction Consensus feels safe. It rarely creates breakthroughs.Design for Breakthroughs Small, protected, fast teams outperform bureaucracy every time.Timestamps(00:00) Intro(02:58) The Big Idea Behind Pattern Breakers (05:19) Who Is Mike Maples — and Why His Perspective Matters (07:35) Lesson 1: Start With Inflections, Not Ideas (12:36) Lesson 2: Be Non-Consensus and Right (17:31) Lesson 3: Prototype the Future, Not the MVP (21:31) Lesson 4: Recruit, Lead, and Scale Through Movements (26:20) Lesson 5: Master Productive Disagreeableness (30:04) Lesson 6: Break the Corporate Biases That Kill Breakthroughs (35:00) Lesson 7: Structure for Breakthrough Execution (39:41) Key Takeaways — The Lenses and Habits That Matter (42:21) Personal Reflection & Critique Why ListenLearn how category-defining companies are built before markets openUpgrade how you evaluate startups, strategies, and leadership teamsReplace product thinking with inflection, conviction, and structureWalk away with questions that immediately sharpen decisionsFound this valuable?Like, share, and follow.Every signal helps grow the show—and brings you more thinking frameworks from people and companies who didn't follow patterns… they broke them.Send us a textSupport the showJoin the Podcast Newsletter: Link

In this episode of Your Strategist Is In, Dr. Loren M. Hill continues the three-part end-of-year arc by naming December's quiet but critical leadership work: discernment. As higher education remains unstable and expectations continue to shift, this episode invites you to slow down and ask a single guiding question: What am I choosing to carry forward?Through reflection, metaphor, and real-world examples from across higher education, Dr. Hill explores how discernment differs from clarity, why not all labor is meant to cross seasons, and how intentional choice becomes an act of leadership — not withdrawal.This episode is for faculty, administrators, staff, and academic leaders who feel the weight of what they've been holding and are ready to choose what truly belongs in the next season.

The right rituals—and the right conversations—can transform how your team collaborates.Strong collaboration starts with thoughtful practices and clear communication. As Molly Sands, Head of the Teamwork Lab at Atlassian, emphasizes, the teams that thrive are the ones that regularly pause to align on what matters and how they're progressing. “You want to know if you're making progress,” she notes, “and you want ways to redirect early—before you're scrambling at the end.”Through her research with teams across Atlassian and around the world, Sands has seen how small, consistent habits—monthly goal reviews, transparent updates, shared spaces for spontaneous interaction—build alignment, psychological safety, and momentum. And in hybrid and distributed environments, she highlights how “bursty” collaboration patterns and intentional meeting design help teams move faster without burning out.In this Quick Thinks episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Sands and host Matt Abrahams break down the rituals that make teamwork work, from OKR check-ins to collaboration hours to the rotating Chief Vibes Officer. No matter where your team sits, Sands shows how intentional communication unlocks connection, speed, and more satisfying ways of working together.Episode Reference Links:Molly SandsEp.241 Team Spirit: How to Make Group Work WorkConnect: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 (02:43) - Measuring Collaboration the Right Way (05:35) - Training Leaders & Goal Rituals (07:49) - Creating Space for Spontaneous Work (11:20) - Making In-Person Time Count (11:44) - Three High-Impact Team Gatherings (14:00) - Supporting Diverse Communication Styles (16:08) - Conclusion  ********Thank you to our sponsors.  These partnerships support the ongoing production of the podcast, allowing us to bring it to you at no cost.

The secret to effective teamwork and collaboration.To collaborate, we have to communicate. As Molly Sands knows, “The more that we can get on the same page, the more effective we are.”Sands is a behavioral scientist and the head of the Teamwork Lab at Atlassian, where she researches how teams can collaborate more effectively and efficiently, especially in distributed and hybrid work environments. As she's seen in her research and within her own team, “People can accomplish a lot more together when they work well together.” The key to unlocking that potential lies in communication that aligns people not just in their activity, but in their deeper goals and vision. “The best work happens when you start by asking why,” she says, “getting people to really understand: why is this a problem, why do we wanna solve it, and how are we uniquely positioned to do that? The more that we can map this out together, the more effective our teams tend to be.”In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Sands and host Matt Abrahams discuss strategies for effective collaboration, from “page-led” meetings and asynchronous video messages to using AI as a collaborator. Whether your team is working face-to-face or across time zones, Sands' insights show how better communication is the key to better collaboration.Episode Reference Links:Molly SandsEp.241 Team Spirit: How to Make Group Work WorkConnect: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 (02:32) - How the Teamwork Lab Works (04:03) - Top Challenges for Teams (04:37) - Clarifying Goals & Alignment (07:19) - AI as a Collaborative Partner (09:25) - Atlassian's AI Onboarding Buddy (12:49) - Rethinking Meetings (15:58) - Three Types of Work Time (17:17) - Replacing Meetings with Asynchronous Video (20:02) - The Final Three Questions (24:11) - Conclusion  ********This episode is sponsored by Grammarly.
