Michael Walsh spent 30 years helping businesses scale to $50M+ and discovered something that contradicts everything you've been taught: treating your team like a "well-oiled machine" destroys the exact expertise your clients pay for.

Now, he takes 18 weeks off annually while his consultancy thrives.In this conversation, Michael breaks down why 20th-century industrial thinking fails in expertise-based businesses, the ecosystem approach that unlocks sustainable growth, and how AI is accelerating the shift from information work to creative work.Key Insights:The hidden cost of the machine mindset: why systemizing people like interchangeable parts kills creativity and innovation in marketing, consulting, and service businessesThe 3 Freedoms framework: Freedom IN your business (doing work you love), Freedom FROM your business (it runs without you), and Freedom BECAUSE OF your business (funds the life you want)—and why getting the sequence wrong keeps you trappedMichael's transformation story: from working 52 weeks straight to taking the last week of every month off, and how his income skyrocketed as a resultThe Phil Jackson approach: how championship coaches built winning teams by customizing systems around individual strengths instead of forcing uniformityFour elements of human behaviour that make employee motivation obvious: survive, thrive, connect, adapt and how understanding these removes the mystery from team performanceThe social contract that creates loyalty: why traditional command-and-control management fails with knowledge workers, and what replaces itAI's role in the creativity age: why the information age is ending, and how AI forces us back to authentic human storytelling and strategic thinkingThe hiring system that reveals complementary strengths: using tools like MBTI, Kolbe, and behavioural assessments to build teams where people's weaknesses become irrelevantResources mentioned:Get Michael's complete hiring system free at freedombydesignbook.comConnect with Jay Hunt:Join Amplify Your Brand on Skool for AI tools, business strategies, and live audits: https://www.skool.com/aybWebsite: https://jayhunt.socialLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/socialmediaspeakerEpisode Timestamps:0:00 - Machine mindset vs ecosystem approach introduction1:00 - Freedom by Design book & strategic LinkedIn outreach1:50 - 30-year transformation: from zero vacation to 18 weeks off2:21 - The 1996 turning point: forced Mexico vacation4:01 - 16-hour exhaustion crash4:44 - Post-vacation revenue spike: $10K in one month6:09 - Scaling to 18 weeks off annually7:29 - The 3-week work, 1-week off rhythm8:05 - How clients adapted to compressed schedule10:19 - Managing guilt & forced disconnection13:19 - Freedom by Design framework deep dive13:55 - Machine mindset origins: assembly lines & industrial revolution15:03 - How unions formed in response to cog-in-machine treatment16:23 - Why information services require different management17:28 - Machine built for owners vs ecosystem for everyone18:19 - The illusion of control through systems19:14 - Supporting people's strengths vs forcing compliance21:06 - Sales team ecosystem: customizing for different personalities22:37 - Building support structures around individual strengths24:32 - Hiring assessment tools: MBTI, StrengthsFinder, Kolbe, Wonderlic28:16 - The human element vs cheap offshore labor trap29:24 - Four aspects of human behavior: survive, thrive, connect, adapt33:28 - AI completing the information age, entering creativity age36:21 - Why AI forces authentic human storytelling38:26 - The 10%-80%-10% AI collaboration model41:28 - AI efficiency example: presentations from 3-4 days to 1.5 hoursSubscribe to Drop The Mic for conversations with entrepreneurs, authors, and leaders who've built businesses that serve their lives and not consume them.

If you've been second-guessing your strategy, this will help steady the ship.

In this episode of The extra-Ordinary Leader, I sit down with my first-ever returning guest, Roderic Yapp, former Royal Marine Commando and founder of Leadership Capital. Rod brings a razor-sharp perspective to leadership in complex, fast-moving environments, and this conversation expands how we think about context, decision-making, and performance.We explore why context is the overlooked foundation of leadership, how to tell whether your world is simple, complicated or complex, and why you may need to develop an unexpected capability: a small measure of strategic callousness.We also unpack the practical tools leaders can use to stay effective - from drawing systems on paper to understanding the Cynefin framework, experimenting for growth, and knowing when to empower…and when to take control.If you lead people, lead change, or lead yourself, this is one to keep coming back to.Inside This EpisodeWhy context shapes everything — and why most leaders miss itThe multi-tool metaphor: choosing the right behaviour for the momentHow the wrong leadership style destroys performanceThe Cynefin framework in clear, practical languageWhy experiments beat long-range plans in fast growthThree-year horizons and twelve sprints: a smarter way to planDrawing your systems to reveal bottlenecks fastWhere empathy helps — and where it holds leaders backBoundaries, accountability and the realities of performanceThe simplest tool for cutting overwhelm: write it downWhat to bin, what to put in: reflective habits for high-performing leadersRod Yapp: LinkedIn: https://uk.linkedin.com/in/rodericyappLeadership Capital: https://leadershipcapital.com/If you'd like to deepen your own leadership journey, my book The extra-Ordinary Leader is available here: https://www.dollywaddell.com/store/p/the-extra-ordinary-leader

On the surface, high-achieving people-pleasers are admired by everyone. We seem to have it all together—never complaining about our workload and always showing up prepared and polished. But the effort to make everything look easy, even when we're struggling, comes at a huge cost. In this episode, I discuss why we do this and how to start releasing ourselves from the constant performance so we can feel supported, helped, and loved, rather than staying trapped in a cycle of loneliness and resentment. Here's what I cover:Examples that highlight how high-achievers hide their strugglesThe underlying beliefs that drive this behavior and where they come fromWhy your body eventually refuses to keep up the performanceThe red flags that signal when you've become trapped in trying to make things look easyWhat it takes to begin unraveling this pattern and show up with authenticity insteadFind Sara here:https://sarafisk.coachhttps://pages.sarafisk.coach/difficultconversationshttps://www.instagram.com/sarafiskcoach/https://www.facebook.com/SaraFiskCoaching/https://www.tiktok.com/@sarafiskcoachhttps://www.youtube.com/@sarafiskcoaching1333What happens inside the free Stop People Pleasing Facebook Community?

Space has a power problem. Satellites need more electricity and better protection, yet solar arrays are slow to build and failure-prone, and shielding adds mass and complexity. Atomic-6 is tackling both sides at once.Our guest this week is Trevor Smith, founder and CEO of Atomic-6. His team is building Light Wing, a redeployable, mass-manufacturable solar array aimed at higher watts per kilogram and faster delivery, and Space Armor, an RF-permeable debris shield designed to stop hypervelocity impacts while preserving comms and resisting directed energy.

How do you build a team where leadership is shared, not hoarded? Where power is a tool for progress—not control? In this deeply insightful episode, Tyler Chisholm speaks with Jeff Couillard and Pablo Romero, co-CEOs of The Ally Co, about the future of leadership, the hidden cost of hierarchy, and why real change starts with self-awareness. As consultants working with everyone from fast-scaling startups to major global energy firms, Jeff and Pablo share how they help organizations move from performative leadership to purposeful transformation. Together, they explore the concept of “leaderful teams”—environments where trust, dialogue, and distributed power become strategic advantages. They dig into how leaders can build psychological safety, address unconscious bias, and break cycles of “artificial harmony” that often undermine growth. The conversation also touches on the Ally Co's own co-CEO structure, revealing how it models the accountability and allyship they teach. Whether you're managing people, designing culture, or leading change in a complex system, this episode is a must-listen for anyone who believes leadership is a shared responsibility—not a solo act.In this episode:What it means to create “leaderful teams”Why power isn't inherently good or bad—and how to use it more consciouslyThe importance of psychological safety in organizational performanceThe common gap between good intentions and real-world impactHow leaders in technical industries can unlearn old paradigms The value of co-leadership and distributed decision-makingTop 3 Wisdom Bombs“Leadership isn't what you do to people—it's what you do with them.” - Pablo Romero“If we've done our job right, things might feel worse before they feel better. That's how you know you're being honest.” - Pablo Romero“Power is just the ability to affect change. It's neutral. What matters is how you use it.” - Jeff CouillardThis episode is brought to you by clearmotive marketing.

What happens when the worst thing you've ever done becomes the foundation for your life's work?Episode SummaryMy guest on this episode is Tom Hardin, otherwise known as Tipper X.  He's been on the show before, but this time we're tackling a different angle.If you don't already know his story, Tom was a rising star in the hedge fund world in his twenties when he became involved in insider trading. Caught by the FBI, he made the decision to cooperate — ultimately becoming one of the most prolific informants in the largest investigation of its kind in U.S. history. His work with the FBI helped secure dozens of convictions, and while his own case remained under seal for years, he eventually chose to speak publicly about what happened — not to excuse it, but to help others understand how good people can make bad decisions.If you haven't heard Tom's first appearance on the show, where he tells that extraordinary story in full, I highly recommend listening to it here before diving into this episode.Because this time, we're not talking about what he did back then; we're talking about what he's done since. Tom has built a powerful second act, using his experience to educate organisations about ethics, decision-making and behavioural risk. He's now delivered over 600 talks, and what fascinates me is how he's turned that into something both impactful and sustainable.His forthcoming book Wired on Wall Street is due out next year, and he'll be back on the show to talk about that. But for now, I wanted to explore what it means to build a career from a cautionary tale. In this conversation, we explore:How Tom built a speaking business around his past without glamourising itThe frameworks he's developed to help companies recognise ethical pressure pointsHow he navigates scepticism, manages reputation, and avoids turning his story into a performanceThe impact he hopes to have, and how he measures itThis is a conversation about vulnerability, professionalism, and doing good with what you've learned the hard way. Whether you're in compliance, leadership, education, or just curious about how we turn failure into purpose, this one's for you.Guest ProfileTom is a former hedge fund analyst turned FBI informant, now a globally recognised speaker and ethics educator.
