Authentic Leadership and People-First Culture with Chris Robinson of Maxwell LeadershipIn this episode of The Thoughtful Entrepreneur, host Josh Elledge speaks with Chris Robinson, Executive Vice President of the Maxwell Leadership Institute and founder of chrisrobinsonspeaker.com. Chris shares a transformative approach to leadership rooted in authenticity, empathy, and personal connection. This episode explores how leaders can foster a culture that retains talent, inspires teams, and builds lasting impact by putting people first.Leadership That Connects: How to Build Culture Through Trust and CareChris Robinson believes that effective leadership comes down to three critical questions every team member asks: Can I trust you? Can you help me? Do you care for me? When leaders can genuinely answer “yes” to all three, they foster deeper relationships and stronger organizational cultures. Building trust starts with transparency and consistency, while being helpful means actively supporting team growth with resources, guidance, and encouragement. Most importantly, caring for your team goes beyond metrics—it requires recognizing their aspirations, listening to their concerns, and showing genuine appreciation.The cost of poor leadership, Chris warns, is high—and turnover is just the beginning. Financial losses, low morale, and declining productivity often stem from leaders who fail to connect or invest in their people. He recommends using a “retention calculator” to understand the true cost of losing a team member and encourages proactive practices like stay interviews and real-time feedback to keep teams engaged. Leaders who create a safe, responsive environment ultimately retain top talent and reduce disruption.To build a sustainable, people-first leadership culture, Chris uses tools like the “My Favorite Things” survey—gathering personal insights about team members' interests, motivators, and milestones. Recognizing employees in small but meaningful ways—like remembering birthdays or rewarding them with their favorite treat—creates a culture of appreciation. Consistency is key: leaders must model the behavior they expect, train mid-level managers to do the same, and build common language and values across the organization using proven frameworks like those from John Maxwell.About Chris RobinsonChris Robinson is the Executive Vice President of the Maxwell Leadership Institute, an international speaker, coach, and entrepreneur. He empowers leaders to grow personally and professionally by equipping them with actionable leadership tools and people-first principles that drive real results.About Maxwell LeadershipMaxwell Leadership provides proven leadership development programs based on the teachings of John C.

10 Human-Centered Leadership Principles1. Ask for forgiveness, not permissionInnovation rarely starts with approval.Build what you believe in — and deal with the politics later.You will be remembered for the rules you break.2. Build teams first, then productsGood products are built by healthy teams.Invest in trust, care, and clarity — and the product will follow.3. People and interactions over processes and toolsStolen from Agile, and still true.Tools are only as good as the humans using them.Build relationships before systems.4. Find a way — or build oneConstraints don't stop creativity.They shape it.Be scrappy. Be resourceful. Be relentless.5. Never build what is askedDig deeper.Understand the real need.Then build what actually matters.6. Less talking, more buildingEndless alignment leads nowhere.Create momentum by making things.Then talk about what's real.7. Live off the landUse what you have, don't wait for ideal conditions.Work with the terrain, not against it.It takes knowledge, humility, and creativity.But that's how great work gets done.8. Everyone is a designerDesign is not a job title — it's a mindset.Everyone on the team shapes the experience.So give them the tools, the trust, and the invitation to contribute.9. Good management is as little management as possible.The best leadership is invisible.Create clarity, then get out of the way. People want clarity not transparency.Support, don't control.Unblock, don't bottleneck.10. We all have wings, but some of us don't know whyThere's magic in everyone.Part of leadership is reminding people they can fly —even if they've forgotten how..How to connect with AgileDad:- [website] https://www.agiledad.com/- [instagram] https://www.instagram.com/agile_coach/- [facebook] https://www.facebook.com/RealAgileDad/- [Linkedin] https://www.linkedin.com/in/leehenson/

In this episode of the Vanderbloemen Leadership Podcast, Jared sits down with William Vanderbloemen to unpack why vision isn't just a top-level conversation—it's the fuel that drives every part of a healthy organization. From pop quizzes on vision statements to the concept of "uber vision," they explore why vision clarity at all layers of leadership is critical for building, running, and keeping great teams. Key discussion points include: Vision at Every Level: Why it's not enough for just the leadership team to know the vision—and how to make sure everyone from the receptionist to the CEO is aligned. Uber Vision vs. Vision: How setting a high enough North Star can create momentum that carries the whole team farther than ever imagined. Turning Vision into Action: Why casting big vision must be paired with clear, practical steps so teams don't feel overwhelmed but empowered. Navigating Changes: How the age and size of an organization affect how quickly (or slowly) vision shifts can happen—and why urgency matters. (For a deeper dive into leading through change, check out our episode Leading Through Change). The Power of Repetition: How Aristotle's principle of “reminding people of what they already know” helps leaders reinforce vision without sounding redundant. Vision and Organizational Growth: Why understanding the founding heartbeat of an organization can help you contextualize vision for the future. Whether you're leading a startup, a growing team, or a historic organization, this episode will help you sharpen your vision-casting skills, energize your team, and swing the pendulum farther toward meaningful impact.

Send us a textArtificial Intelligence (AI) is transforming industries worldwide, and biotechnology is no exception. In bioprocess development, AI is proving to be a game-changer, accelerating workflows, optimizing processes, and driving innovation. On the Smart Biotech Scientist Podcast, Reza Farahani, founder and CEO of Catalyze AI, shares his insights on how AI is reshaping biomanufacturing and the future of the industry.As AI continues to integrate into bioprocessing, the role of scientists is evolving. Farahani envisions a future where scientists collaborate with AI to enhance efficiency. One of Catalyze AI's exciting innovations is an agentic root cause analysis tool, designed to automate troubleshooting. Instead of spending hours on manual analysis, scientists will receive AI-generated reports outlining probable causes of failures—allowing them to focus on high-level decision-making.What you'll learn in this episode:Exciting Advances in AI: Farahani highlights the potential of Artificial General Intelligence (AGI)—AI that can generate ideas through analogy, much like humans do. Imagine an AI system recognizing a successful method in the petroleum industry and applying those principles to biomanufacturing. This kind of cross-disciplinary innovation could unlock groundbreaking efficiencies.Leadership Principles in AI-Driven Biotech Startups: Farahani takes an unconventional approach to leadership. Unlike corporate environments where avoiding mistakes is crucial, he encourages his team to embrace failure early on. "I want to see you make a mistake in the first month," he tells new hires. By removing the fear of failure, his team can experiment, think creatively, and drive true innovation—an essential mindset for biotech startups breaking new ground.Advice for Aspiring Biotech Entrepreneurs: Farahani's advice is simple: find a problem, develop a unique solution, and take action. He urges scientists to identify small inefficiencies that can be scaled and optimized. Equally important is being open to failure and iterating quickly to refine solutions. Success comes from starting, adapting, and continuously improving.As we stand on the brink of a biomanufacturing revolution, the real opportunity lies in combining AI with biologics. While AI often dominates the conversation, Farahani emphasizes that biologics remain underhyped. The true breakthroughs will come from leveraging AI to solve real-world challenges in biomanufacturing, leading to significant efficiencies and industry-wide advancements.For those passionate about this field, staying connected with thought leaders like Reza Farahani and keeping up with the latest innovations is key. As AI and biologics continue to converge, the future of bioprocessing holds unprecedented potential for transformation and progress.Curious about how AI is transforming bioprocessing?

Mindfulness can transform your communication and your career.When we react, our instincts and impulses are in the driver's seat. But when we take the time to reflect, that's when Marshall Goldsmith says we take back control of how we respond.“​​​​Before speaking at work, breathe,” Goldsmith says. “Is my comment going to improve this other human being's commitment? At home, breathe. Is my comment going to improve this relationship with someone I love? If the answer is no, why am I saying it?”As a world-renowned executive coach, speaker, and best-selling author, Goldsmith teaches how a mindful approach can change how we relate to others, to ourselves, and even to our career goals and ambitions. Through reflection, we identify our values, which we can use to live what Goldsmith calls an “earned life — when the choices, risks, and effort we make in each moment align with an overarching purpose in our lives.”In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Goldsmith joins host Matt Abrahams to explore practical strategies for bettering our interactions with others and ourselves, from his “feed forward” method for giving and receiving constructive critique to his "daily questions" practice, which prompts reflective self-inquiry to keep us focused on what truly matters.Episode Reference Links:Marshall GoldsmithMarshall's Books: What Got Here Won't Get You There / Triggers Ep.138 Speak Your Truth: Why Authenticity Leads to Better CommunicationConnect: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 (01:35) - Key Communication Advice (02:17) - An Earned Life (04:14) - Transition to Leadership (05:45) - Breathe Before Speaking (07:00) - Feedforward vs. Feedback (08:00) - Managing Triggers (09:51) - Daily Success Checklist (12:29) - Using AI for Coaching (13:58) - Influencing Up Leadership (15:33) - The Final Three Questions (18:28) - Conclusion
