On this episode, he joins Mick Hunt to dive deep into interest media, personal brand building, and uncovering the purpose that fuels his unstoppable drive. Takeaways Intent Matters More Than Tactics: Gary emphasizes that true impact comes from a genuine desire to serve your audience, not from chasing likes or followers for personal gain. Authentic intent can be felt by your audience and sets you apart from the crowd. Interest Media Over Social Media: The way people interact with digital platforms has shifted—platforms are now more about sharing interests and connecting over passions than about purely social connections. Creators should lean into authenticity and share what makes them unique to attract the right audience.

That's it. The first two don't work.” “Obscurity is a much bigger problem than rejection—if you're being rejected, at least you're being seen.” “Quit trying to start things from scratch. Look for businesses you can buy and scale, not just build."   Connect & Discover Grant: Website: https://grantcardone.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/grantcardone/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/grantcardone/?hl=en Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/grantcardonefan/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/GrantCardone

When communicating with their employees, most firms have no idea who they're talking to.Good communication is about knowing your audience. But if your organization is only focused on knowing your customers, James Root says you're forgetting a whole other cohort: your employees.Root is a senior partner at Bain & Company, Chair of Bain Futures, and author of The Archetype Effect, in which he reveals a simple but overlooked truth: people want different things from their jobs. Despite this, most companies' approach to employee motivation and reward is one-size-fits-all. “Every aspect of the standard organization model is built around this idea of the average worker,” he says. The problem? No average worker exists. “What people want from work is highly varied,” he says, and while many organizations spend millions to learn what drives their customers, “The mystery is why haven't we applied that same thinking to our workers?"In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Root and host Matt Abrahams explore how firms can transform organizational success by understanding their internal audience.
