What if everything you brushed off as a conspiracy… actually wasn't? For decades, fluoride in the water has been treated like a late-night joke. Frogs, memes, Alex Jones clips, all that. But what if the joke was just a distraction? What if the real story was hiding in plain sight, and we've been sleepwalking through it for years? Studio Sponsor: Cardio Miracle - "Unlock the secret to a healthier heart, increased energy levels, and transform your cardiovascular fitness like never before.": CardioMiracle.com/TBNS Today's episode digs straight into the uncomfortable stuff. Not the cartoon version, not the sanitized corporate PR version, but the real-world impacts of what happens when we hand over our health, our kids, and our trust to institutions that haven't earned it. If you've ever felt like something doesn't add up, you're going to feel very validated today. We talk about the history the government never bothers mentioning, the way fluoride interacts with your brain, and why it became part of school and military programs long before it became “about dental health.” And yeah… we go there on the cultural issues. Because pretending the dots aren't connected is how we got stuck in this mess in the first place. We also hit the bigger picture: how culture shifted, how kids became easier to influence, why institutions fight so hard to keep you from thinking for yourself, and why the past few years have woken up more people than the political class is comfortable admitting. This isn't doom and gloom. It's clarity. And at the end of the day, this episode is about one thing: taking back control of your health, your family, and your sanity in a world that's been gaslighting you for decades. Not with fear. With facts, common sense, and the freedom to say “no more.” ❤️ Order Cardio Miracle (CardioMiracle.com/TBNS) for 15% off and take a step towards better heart health and overall well-being!

In 1929, unchecked speculation and economic hype helped fuel the worst financial crash in modern history. Nearly a century later, New York Times journalist and CNBC anchor Andrew Ross Sorkin sees troubling parallels. On the GZERO World podcast, he joins Ian Bremmer to talk about his new book, "1929: Inside the Greatest Crash in Wall Street History—and How It Shattered a Nation," and whether today's economy is headed for another cliff.Sorkin warns that behind today's AI boom and market exuberance lies an undercurrent of fragility—historic debt levels, shaky private credit markets, and investors chasing returns with little oversight. While the technology behind AI is real, much of the money flooding in feels familiar to those who've studied speculative bubbles before. “We're not going to have another 1929,” Sorkin says, “but I think it's very possible. Actually, I would argue it's almost impossible for us not to have another 1999.” He sees eerie parallels between the past and the present: massive speculative investments, surging inequality, and a public increasingly disconnected from financial realities.But one thing stands out today: silence. Sorkin warns that many CEOs and financial leaders, despite recognizing the risks, are unwilling to speak out publicly. “If we ever get to a moment where we need to make very difficult decisions,” he says, “are there going to be leaders willing to stand up and explain what needs to happen?”Host: Ian BremmerGuest: Andrew Ross Sorkin  Subscribe to the GZERO World with Ian Bremmer Podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or your preferred podcast platform, to receive new episodes as soon as they're published.

In this episode, CEO coach Gene Hammett explores what it truly means to Be Intentional as a Leader, encouraging listeners to examine their leadership style and uncover the barriers limiting their growth. Drawing from his recent keynote at the Association of Animal Welfare Advancement, he introduces a clear two-part framework for elevating leadership, recognizing current hindrances, and defining the aspirational traits that drive stronger performance. Gene emphasizes the power of proactive, self-aware leadership in building engaged, high-performing teams and shares practical tools and resources to support deeper self-discovery and more effective, intentional leadership. Episode Highlights & Time Stamps 2:04 The Importance of Self-Reflection 5:44 Defining Your Leadership Identity 6:59 Evolving as a Leader 8:17 The Power of Intentionality 9:40 Strategies for Effective Leadership Identify who you're being that limits your leadership. Most leaders fall into the same cycle: open the laptop, answer emails, run spreadsheets, jump into meetings, put out fires… and repeat. I've been there, and maybe you're stuck in that same loop, working hard, but not necessarily leading intentionally. So pause for a moment and ask yourself: What would it take for me to be a better leader? And even more importantly, why do I want to be a better leader? Is your team performing below its potential? Do decisions keep landing back on your plate? Are you feeling overwhelmed or burned out? If so, this episode is for you. Recently, I spoke at the Association of Animal Welfare Advancement here in Atlanta. Their leaders were deeply committed to growing, and during that keynote, I shared one core idea: the power of intention in leadership. Here's a portion of that talk: "When you want to be a great leader, it doesn't happen by accident; it requires intention. You need the ability to shift with what's in front of you. Defining the leader you want to become may seem trivial or unnecessary, but it is foundational. Who are you being that gets in the way of being a better leader? And who do you want to become in the next level of yourself? You must be honest with yourself and claim the leader you're becoming." Are you scattered? Distracted? Overwhelmed? Too nice? Too empathetic? Too direct? These traits may not seem harmful, but when they're dialed too high, they create friction. Write them down on a 3×5 or 4×6 card, make it honest, uncomfortable, and real. This clarity helps you move away from what no longer serves your leadership. Define who you want to become. One of my clients captured this beautifully: Be decisive. Be focused. Be confident. Each week during our coaching sessions, we review how these traits showed up. This repetition creates accountability and reinforces their development. This is the work of intentional leadership, continuously evolving and expanding your capacity. Whether you're a CEO, founder, or senior leader, complacency kills performance. Growth requires reinvention. If you're new here, I'm Gene Hammett, CEO, coach, founder, and leadership development expert. We help executives and leadership teams create environments where people perform at their best, take ownership, and feel aligned with the mission. If you want to explore these ideas further without committing to a call, join my free training at training.corelevation.com. In about 90 minutes, we cover core principles, common mistakes, and the five steps to becoming a stronger, more intentional leader. To close today's episode, remember this: Being intentional is a superpower. Reactive leadership limits performance. A simple example comes from sales: smile before you dial. People can sense your energy even without seeing you. That's the intention at work. Imagine showing up 90–95% of the time as the leader you want to be decisive, focused, confident… or whatever traits matter most to you. One of my favorite examples from a client is the phrase: unshakably confident. Picture that being you. It's possible if you choose to lead with intention. If I can support you in any way, keep following our content, keep stepping up, and remember: when you think of growth and leadership, think of Growth Think Tank. Key Takeaways Great leadership never happens by accident it requires intention. Break the reactive work cycle by pausing to reflect on why you want to grow. Part 1: Define who you're being today that limits your leadership. Part 2: Define the leader you want to become (e.g., decisive, focused, confident). Writing your leadership identity on a simple card creates clarity and accountability. Intentionality is a leadership superpower that elevates performance and reduces overwhelm. "Smile before you dial" is a simple example of how intention shapes outcomes. Ideal For: Founders, CEOs, executives, managers, and anyone committed to elevating their leadership capacity.

Hello, all you great people trying to figure out how to do right by patients. Welcome to it. I was and am always extremely curious if any of what we talk about over here on Relentless Health Value has, in any way, percolated over to your average employer CEO—the ones who do not listen to this show, I mean. For a full transcript of this episode, click here. If you enjoy this podcast, be sure to subscribe to the free weekly newsletter to be a member of the Relentless Tribe. This is what I try to figure out during my conversation upcoming here with John Quinn from Wellnecity® today, and I score some advice to boot for employers in the face of any of these revelations that they may have. That's what's gonna go down today, and this whole endeavor is a decent plan, if I do say so myself, because John Quinn chats up a lot of employer CEOs. He's certainly got a bit of a catbird seat there. So, taking it from the top, I wanted to see how clued in these employer C-suites might be to a fundamental myth, which, if employer folks don't realize it is in fact a myth, it means that a whole lot of transformational power is going nowhere fast. And this myth is the mother of all myths: the "there is a market in healthcare" myth. We've been on a tear about this for three episodes now, at least as it relates to hospitals and health systems. I'm gonna refer everybody to LinkedIn because Luke Trocchio put up a, I don't know what you call it, a reel, highlighting something that Shane Cerone said in episode 490. And then I'm gonna tell you why whatever CEOs at self-insured employers are thinking here makes all the difference in the world. But what Shane said is this, "The myth is that we have a functioning marketplace, and we don't." Shane continues, "What I mean by [there is no actual healthcare market], as somebody who's been a CEO of multiple hospitals and health systems, hospitals don't compete on price for patients. It … doesn't work that way. And so, we don't really have a normal market incentive to reduce cost or, in this case, the price of services in order to remain competitive." Now look, and this isn't rocket science, but it needs to be said out loud. The reason there is no healthcare market largely is because self-insured employers have not insisted upon there being one. Is that fair? I don't know. And whether or not it's fair is irrelevant to this point. Self-insured employers pay for healthcare for, like, 160 million Americans. They are largely the demand curve. They are the demand side of any market that exists. Because you know something that doesn't our market make? You can't ask the supply side to create demand elasticity. You can't get a seller to get a buyer to buy or not buy at some price point. That would be like a comedy skit. Except in this case, you know, patients die or go bankrupt because they can't afford care. So, it's not really all that funny. But if in this country we are depending on health system prices being constrained by a market, and then you don't have a buyer who doesn't buy when the price is higher than the buyer wants to pay or a buyer who doesn't buy unsafe stuff or low-quality goods or services, you're gonna get sky-high prices. Welcome to it right now. Also, if there's no competition, again, no market. But competition a lot of times doesn't surface if there's no point in starting up a business because there's no demand for lower prices or higher-quality care. I mean, if no one cares if you have lower prices or higher quality, then how are you gonna attract patient volume or steal market share, right? Like, unless you're really good at marketing, I guess, or have accumulated market power. I'll say this again. If our whole, the whole healthcare sector pricing structure is built on the myth that there is a market and then there's no market and employers aren't filling for whatever reason, the vital demand side role that they have to play for there to be a market, then, right … hello, 37% renewals like we see coming up in New Jersey. Listen to the show with Kevin Lyons (EP487, Part 1). So, I say all this to say, do employer CEOs even know they have one job here? And I'm not talking about, again, whether or not this is fair, whether they're capable of pulling this off. I'm just distilling this whole thing down to this is the question that remains on the ground. So anyway, this is first and foremost what I go after John Quinn from Wellnecity to figure out today: Where's your average CEO in this learning curve? Now here's some demand curve optimism. The show from two weeks ago with Elizabeth Mitchell (EP491) from PBGH, the Purchaser Business Group on Health. In that show from a couple weeks ago, we talk about what PBGH members, who are very large employers, what they're up to. So, certainly go back and listen to that if you haven't. Okay, so with that, here's my conversation with John Quinn from Wellnecity, as I have mentioned; and you'll get two things out of this conversation. Number one, a level set on what employers' leadership teams are figuring out and why they are figuring this out. (Renewal shocks and employees complaining about affordability much?) But also how the mindset needs to shift in the C-suite for anything to really happen here. In other words, what's the assignment and what's some very top-line advice to get there? That's how I finish up the conversation with John Quinn today. Do just wanna note that Wellnecity so kindly offered to pick up some of the tab to produce this Relentless Health Value show, which, as I keep saying is … yeah, it is expensive to keep this train on the track. People often forget it's not just what goes into the recording, the hosting, the producing, the editing of a podcast, but there also is a whole Web site and an API feed and headshots and graphics and transcriptions and a proofreader. It's a whole thing, guys, even if the host is a volunteer with a day job. So, thanks much to Wellnecity for the contribution to the fund and for coming on the pod today. John Quinn is CEO of Wellnecity. Wellnecity does health plan management for employers that self-fund their health plan. The key role Wellnecity plays is how do they help those employers better manage the spend category called health benefits.

Nick shares his past struggles as a CEO being overwhelmed by too many metrics, which led to poor decision-making and a difficult board meeting. He argues that most CEOs drown in "vanity metrics" that don't actually reflect a business' true value.  To combat this, he introduces The Ultimate CEO Dashboard, detailing the five most crucial numbers that private equity operating partners consistently demand and that truly determine a business' enterprise value and potential for a premium exit KEY TAKEAWAYS Stop tracking dozens of "vanity metrics" and focus only on the five crucial numbers that determine if your business is building or destroying value. Private Equity values the ability to accurately forecast revenue (pipeline coverage) and profitability (EBITDA margin) more than just raw revenue growth. Wildly inaccurate forecasts, even if positive, can be penalised. Cash runway is the oxygen of your business, which must be tracked weekly. However, EBITDA growth (profit) is the metric that determines your exit multiple and creates real financial value. Customer concentration (when a few clients drive a large percentage of revenue) is the number one silent deal killer and can instantly drop a business's valuation by 30% to 50%. BEST MOMENTS "The board partner at the time said, 'Nick, I don't care about your NPS score, your net promoter score. He said, do we have cash or not?'" "More metrics can sometimes mean worse decisions." "You can't cost-cut your way to a premium exit. You need growth plus margin expansion." "If you're only looking at revenue, you're driving by looking in the rearview mirror." VALUABLE RESOURCES Want a one-pager that breaks down The Ultimate CEO Dashboard — the exact 5 metrics that determine your company's enterprise value?

The Hard Truth That Helped Me Fix My Business (And My Mind) Yesterday… wow. Fonzi and I spent the whole day locked in at a coworking space — not recording, not filming, just talking. About the business. The studio. Our team. Even the future of Content Momentum and the Business Creator Club. We thought we were going in different directions. We weren't. We just weren't saying things the same way. Wild, right? This episode you're about to hear? It's the one that helped us have that hard conversation. And I mean hard. But also... powerful. Because we finally got aligned. And guess who's in the episode? My coach. My mentor. My North Star. Katie Richardson. She's the one who helped me learn how to lead, not just do, and with that, pave the path to our first 7 figures!. The person who helped me figure out why I was stuck — and how to break out of it. We talk about the #1 mistake CEOs make (I was making it too), and the ONE question you've got to ask if you're feeling stuck, tired, or like your business isn't “fun” anymore. But here's the thing… we don't give all the answers away. You gotta listen. Because if you're a coach, creator, or entrepreneur trying to grow something big — this will change how you see your team, your time, and even yourself. Let's go P.S.

Podcast Description: What standards are you setting—and what standards are you silently accepting? In this powerful episode, we explore how the quality of your life, business, relationships, and results all come down to one thing: your standards. From punctuality and presentation to communication, health, and humanity—your standards define your culture, your credibility, and your future. Leigh Farnell dives deep into the mindset behind excellence, the courage it takes to say "that's not good enough," and why goals are what you reach for, but standards are what you settle for.  Learn how to raise your baseline, speak up for what matters, and watch your life and business soar to new heights.

This episode is powered by The Move to Millions Ascension Archetype Quiz , your first step in uncovering how to leverage your divine wiring to lead with alignment as you stop sabotaging your next level of success. Discover your divine wiring and uncover what's REALLY keeping YOU from millions. The MTM Minute is a quick dose of inspiration with a powerful affirmation based on our weekly full-length episode.  And beginning this season, the MTM Minute will include a prayer of the week for 7 figure CEOs and 7 figure CEOs in the making.  That's right, you don't have to choose – you can love God AND make millions. This MTM Minute is a rewind based on a full length episode that ran earlier this season, Step Into Your 7-Figure Identity,  I shared why your identity is messing with your money.  Click the link above to listen.   This week's 7 Figure CEO Affirmation is "I am stepping into my seven-figure identity with confidence and clarity. My worth is rooted in abundance, and I release any limiting beliefs that no longer serve me. As I align my spirit with my purpose, my business grows and thrives with ease. I am the leader my business needs to expand, and I am fully capable of manifesting the wealth and success that are my divine birthright. My actions are aligned with the seven-figure CEO I am becoming, and as I elevate my identity, my business flourishes."   Here are three actionable tips to anchor in this week's affirmation Shift Your Identity: Reflect on the ways you may be tying your self-worth to money. Start embodying the seven-figure CEO you aspire to be by affirming that your value is not defined by your bank balance. Spend time daily in practices that reinforce your belief in abundance, like prayer, affirmations, and visualizations. Upgrade Your Daily Habits: Begin to adopt a CEO-level routine. Prioritize growth-producing activities like strategic decision-making, setting boundaries, and focusing on your highest-value tasks. Start each day grounded in spiritual alignment to maintain clarity, purpose, and momentum. Expand Your Environment: Evaluate the circles you're in and ensure you're surrounding yourself with people who think expansively and live in abundance. This may involve investing in mentors, attending events, or engaging with individuals who challenge and support your growth to the next level.   Affirm with me: "I am stepping into my seven-figure identity with confidence and clarity. My worth is rooted in abundance, and I release any limiting beliefs that no longer serve me. As I align my spirit with my purpose, my business grows and thrives with ease. I am the leader my business needs to expand, and I am fully capable of manifesting the wealth and success that are my divine birthright. My actions are aligned with the seven-figure CEO I am becoming, and as I elevate my identity, my business flourishes."   And this week's journal prompts are: "I am stepping into my seven-figure identity by embracing… "The limiting belief I am replacing in order to fully embody my seven-figure self is "To align with the seven-figure CEO I am becoming, today I will take bold action by..."   And your prayer of the week: Prayer for Boldness and Abundance: Heavenly Father, I come before You with gratitude for the vision You've placed in my heart. I know that I am capable of reaching the seven-figure success that is my divine birthright. Lord, help me to shift my identity and align it with the abundance You have already prepared for me. Guide me as I step boldly into the CEO I am meant to be, releasing any beliefs or habits that no longer serve me. May my actions reflect my true worth, and may my business flourish as I grow into the leader You have called me to be. I trust that as I elevate my identity and embody my higher purpose, You will continue to open doors of opportunity, guide my steps, and provide the abundance I need to impact the lives of those I serve. Thank You for the strength to make this shift and the grace to carry it out. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen.     Want more of Darnyelle?

Marcia Ballinger, co-author of The 20-Minute Networking Meeting and author of Winning the Executive Interview, brings decades of experience in executive search and human resources. She specializes in recruiting nonprofit CEOs and helping professionals master relationship-building, interviewing, and networking. Marcia explains that interviewing is not about performance or selling yourself, but about authentic, relational conversations that help both sides assess fit. She shares insights from years of observing real interviews, offering a rare look at what hiring leaders truly think when candidates leave the room. In this episode of Marketer of the Day, Marcia reveals how to approach interviews as high-stakes, million-dollar decisions, where listening, curiosity, and confidence matter more than rehearsed answers. She breaks down the four types of interview questions—skills, style, risk mitigation, and logistics—and explains how to answer each effectively. Marcia emphasizes that the goal isn't just to “get the job,” but to find the right one. The candidates who win are those who stay calm, thoughtful, and discerning, proving that the most successful interviewees are the choosiest ones. Quotes: If you find yourself selling in an interview, close your folio, thank them, and leave. You're not getting the job.” “An interview is a million-dollar decision. The smartest candidates approach it like a consultant, not a salesperson.” “Winning the interview isn't about perfection. It's about having an authentic conversation and deciding if it's the right fit for both sides.” “The candidates who get the job aren't the loudest. They're the ones who listen, think, and stay curious.” Resources: Connect with Marcia Ballinger on LinkedIn Winning the Executive Interview on Amazon

Why don't more energy & resource companies have trading arms? For that matter, why don't more sectors trade? Chips, drugs even real estate? Why are CEOs reticent to set up trading platforms and what are the barriers to entry? What sectors would benefit most from trading? And more broadly, how have those firms who have launched trading arms in the energy and commodities trading sector fared over the last five years? How has this development both changed and shaped the opportunities out there? Our guest is Antti Belt, Partner at BCG, focused on commodities, and also a research fellow at the Henderson Institute. We are discussing his paper, alongside his colleagues, the hidden $3 trillion profit opportunity for CEOs, that by learning to think like traders and hedge funds, CEOs can tap value opportunities that are currently left on the table.

In this first installment of our three-part series unpacking Left to Chance: Student Outcomes in Seattle Public Schools (2024), hosts Christie Robertson and Jasmine Pulido sit down with report author Vivian Van Gelder to trace thirty years of reform and turmoil inside Seattle Public Schools.The story begins in 1990 with the Cresap Audit, a state-commissioned report that deemed the district “nearly ungovernable,” and follows the arrival of Major General John Stanford, the charismatic outsider who redefined Seattle schools as a “market-based system.” Stanford's three-year tenure (1995-1998) transformed governance, funding, and labor relations—introducing open-choice enrollment, principal “CEOs,” and the 1997 trust agreement between the district and the Seattle Education Association (SEA).Drawing from Van Gelder's decade-long research and Left to Chance (Southeast Seattle Education Coalition), this episode examines how these reforms—rooted in neoliberal management theory, school-based decision-making, and business-style accountability—continue to shape Seattle Public Schools today.

On today's podcast:1) The US House of Representatives will be back at work Wednesday for the first time in 53 days to vote on a bill that would end the longest government shutdown record. The legislation would relieve the sharpest pain points, including delayed SNAP benefits, air travel chaos and government worker furloughs. But it won’t address the main trigger for the shutdown: the expiration of Obamacare premium subsidies that prompted Democrats to block a government funding bill in the first place. The small group of centrist Democrats who broke ranks with their party to end the shutdown won a promise from Senate Majority Leader John Thune that he’ll allow a vote on extending the subsidies - but no guarantees are in place. While some moderate Senate Republicans want to see the subsidies extended with conditions, like an income cap or minimum monthly payment, leading GOP voices on health-care policy are starting to pitch on alternative plans.2) President Trump will host financial industry executives for dinner Wednesday at the White House, according to two officials familiar with the plans, the latest effort by the administration to bring the country’s business elite behind his policies. JPMorgan Chase & Co. CEO Jamie Dimon is among the attendees, one of the officials said, speaking on condition of anonymity to detail the president’s plans. Nasdaq’s Adena Friedman was also among the chief executive officers invited, along with Goldman Sachs Group’s David Solomon, BlackRock’s Larry Fink and Morgan Stanley’s Ted Pick, according to people briefed on the event. The dinner comes as Trump faces rising political pressure on the economy and affordability — issues that anchored Democratic electoral wins in New Jersey and Virginia last week.3) Advanced Micro Devices - Nvidia's closest rival in AI chips - predicts accelerating sales growth over the next five years, driven by strong demand for its data center products. Annual revenue growth will average more than 35% over the next three to five years, Chief Executive Officer Lisa Su said Tuesday at a company event in New York. AMD’s AI data center revenue will increase by an average of 80% over the same period, she said. The stock rallied in extended trading Tuesday after executives also said adjusted profit will reach more than $20 a share and operating margin will exceed 35% in that time frame. AMD updated investors on its long-term outlook amid increasing concern that the massive spending on new computer systems for artificial intelligence work can’t continue at the current elevated levels.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Wolfgang Hammer - The Power of Story - [Invest Like the Best, EP.447] My guest today is my friend Wolfgang Hammer. Wolfgang is a successful film producer and executive who helped create House of Cards and ran several major studios, including Lionsgate, CBS Films and Miramax. He's now building a new kind of film studio with support from Mitch Lasky and Marc Andreessen. Wolfgang also helps founders and CEOs use storytelling to better understand what they do, and why it matters. In many ways, this conversation is a manual for how to find that story and communicate it in a way that resonates. Wolfgang shares the questions and tools he gives leaders to help them do the same. Our conversation explores how stories work, what great ones have in common, and why understanding your own story can be transformative. We talk about the three layers every story must have — the external, the emotional, and the philosophical — and how they apply to building companies and leading people. So many CEOs — at both startups and massive fortune 100 companies — have Wolfgang to thank for changing how they think and talk about their business, and I hope this episode gives you the tools to do the same. Please enjoy my conversation with the great Wolfgang Hammer.

In this thought-provoking episode of Partnering Leadership, Mahan Tavakoli sits down with futurist and strategist Dr. Mark van Rijmenam to explore how leaders can thrive in an era defined by exponential change. Known for his sharp insights into emerging technologies and their impact on society, van Rijmenam shares a grounded yet urgent view of the transformation reshaping every aspect of our world—from business and education to governance and human interaction.Van Rijmenam argues that the shifts underway are not just technological but also ecological and geopolitical, converging into what he calls a “tsunami of change.” Unlike past revolutions that unfolded over centuries, today's convergence of AI, robotics, blockchain, quantum computing, and biotechnology is remaking industries and organizations in mere years. He urges leaders to recognize the pace and scale of disruption and to evolve their thinking beyond the limits of linear strategy.Throughout the conversation, van Rijmenam challenges executives to rethink traditional leadership models. Short-term metrics and hierarchical control, he warns, are relics of a slower age. To lead effectively in exponential times, leaders must decentralize decision-making, empower teams to act with trust, and adopt a long-term mindset that includes future generations in their calculus of success. The future will belong to those who can combine adaptability with ethical awareness—who understand not only what technology can do but what it should do.This discussion also dives into the human dimensions of the digital revolution. From reimagining education and lifelong learning to confronting the erosion of trust in a world of deepfakes and misinformation, van Rijmenam calls for a new kind of leadership—one that cultivates critical thinking and moral courage as much as technical fluency. His perspective is both sobering and optimistic: chaos is inevitable, but it can also be a catalyst for renewal if leaders are willing to reimagine how organizations and societies operate.Whether you're leading a global enterprise or a mission-driven organization, this episode will expand your view of what it means to lead in exponential times—and why the leaders of tomorrow must become what van Rijmenam calls “architects of the future,” building systems that serve humanity as much as innovation.Actionable TakeawaysYou'll learn why Mark van Rijmenam believes this era of transformation is unlike any in history—and why leaders who mistake exponential change for incremental evolution risk falling behind fast.Hear how the convergence of multiple technologies—not just AI—is creating a ripple effect that is reshaping industries and leadership itself.Discover what it takes to move from linear to exponential thinking, and why our evolutionary wiring makes that shift so difficult.Explore the limits of short-termism and why CEOs must adopt a long-term perspective that considers future generations, not just next-quarter results.Find out why traditional education models are failing to prepare the next generation—and what leaders can do to foster critical thinking and lifelong learning inside their organizations.Learn how decentralized decision-making and empowered cultures build resilience in times of disruption—and what happens to companies that cling to control.Hear the story of how one company's culture of challenge and trust prevented a multimillion-dollar fraud—and what it reveals about leadership in the age of Connect with Mahan Tavakoli: Mahan Tavakoli Website Mahan Tavakoli on LinkedIn Partnering Leadership Website
