Paige Arnof-Fenn shares how to stop competing on price by sharpening brand positioning, owning a niche, and turning reputation + referrals into consistent demand.In this episode, Paige Arnof-Fenn shares her journey from investment banking to branding powerhouse and discovering her true calling in marketing, building a distributed firm long before remote work was mainstream, and detailing how to turn expertise into profitable, high-impact businesses. Paige is the founder and CEO of Mavens & Moguls, a global branding and digital marketing firm that has worked with clients like Microsoft, Virgin, The New York Times Company, and Colgate. Her path to entrepreneurship didn't begin with a clear plan, but with a series of courageous pivots that led her from Wall Street to marketing leadership at P&G and Coca-Cola, and eventually to building her own agency. Along the way, she learned that success is less about following a script and more about honoring the parts of work that energize you.The turning points in Paige's story are rooted in self-awareness and bold action. After realizing investment banking didn't align with her values or passion, she shifted into marketing, first through business school, then by shaping brand strategy at major corporations and startups. She watched the internet industry emerge in the late '90s and embraced it, later using the post-9/11 job market as a catalyst to launch her own business. What could have been a moment of fear became the start of a 24-year journey building a thriving firm with a distributed team across multiple cities and countries.Paige's most powerful insights center on clarity, niche, and validation. She encourages women entrepreneurs to treat themselves as a brand, not a commodity, and to build businesses based on real market research, not friendly feedback. She champions differentiation through specificity, sharing how dominating one niche beats trying to please everyone, and explains how profitability is the foundation for meaningful impact.Paige's story is a celebration of women's leadership, resilience, and the power of building businesses that create real change. If you're ready to rethink what entrepreneurship can look like, and how to build it with intention and confidence, this conversation is for you. Tune in and be inspired.Chapters00:56

After the unexpected success of Silent Hill (2006), a sequel felt inevitable, but the road to Silent Hill: Revelation was anything but straightforward.In this episode of ClassHorrorCast, we revisit Silent Hill: Revelation and dig into the original plans for a very different sequel, the unfortunate circumstances that derailed them, and how multiple ideas were ultimately stitched together to bring the film we got to life.We explore how the movie pulls from Silent Hill 3 while also reshaping and retconning elements of the first film - changes that proved controversial with longtime fans of both the games and the 2006 adaptation.We break down the film's heavy use of CGI and 3D, looking at it as a product of its time and how those choices often overshadow some genuinely strong practical effects and creature work happening beneath the digital layers.From its shift toward a more action-driven approach to its reworking of lore, characters, and tone, we talk about what didn't land and what might have worked better with a different creative focus. But Revelation isn't without its strengths. We highlight the creatures, locations, and visual ideas that do feel authentically Silent Hill, and discuss the moments where the film briefly reconnects with the atmosphere and imagery that made the series so powerful in the first place.Beneath the noise, the spectacle, and the missteps, there's the framework of a solid little horror sequel trying to break through.Silent Hill: Revelation may never capture the slow, oppressive dread of its source material, but it remains a fascinating case study in adaptation, expectation, and how easily atmosphere can be lost in the pursuit of scale.If you enjoyed this - CLICK HEREBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/class-horror-cast--4295531/support.

Trust in institutions is declining, and healthcare is not immune. At the same time, patients are relying more heavily than ever on what other people say online to decide where, when, and whether to seek care. In this episode of Touch Point, hosts Chris Boyer and Reed Smith revisit reputation management with a fresh lens. Not as a checklist of review sites to monitor, but as a leading indicator of patient trust, experience, and long-term loyalty. The conversation explores how reputation is shifting beyond Google and Facebook into places health systems rarely control or even monitor. From Reddit threads and local forums to unsolicited patient stories that carry more weight than polished testimonials, reputation today is fragmented, emotional, and deeply contextual. Chris and Reed also unpack a growing tension in healthcare marketing and patient experience. As more organizations are encouraged to solicit reviews through formal programs, are we improving transparency or simply priming the pump. And how should teams interpret star ratings versus narrative feedback when trying to understand real service breakdowns and recovery opportunities. Key topics include: Why declining trust makes reputation a strategic asset, not a marketing afterthought The difference between solicited and unsolicited reviews and why it matters How online reputation signals future loyalty and patient experience scores Where reputation actually forms today and why traditional monitoring tools fall short How health systems can move from reactive review management to meaningful insight and action This episode is a practical, opinionated update for anyone responsible for brand, experience, access, or digital strategy in healthcare. Reputation is no longer just about what people say. It is about what organizations choose to hear and how they respond.

Send us a textIn this episode of Corporate Life, Hina Siddiqui sits down with Connor Treacy to explore the volatile yet rewarding journey of challenging the status quo in the high-stakes worlds of nightlife and political event production. Connor shares his evolution as a non-conformist leadership figure, moving from teenage party promoter to working with major artists at Universal Music Group and producing large-scale events for the Democratic Party. He offers a raw look at the "unsexy" side of being an entrepreneur, including a moment where he nearly quit after a public failure.Connor discusses the importance of a calculated risk over a blind leap and why making bold decisions to protect his reputation is his most valuable currency. From the adrenaline of viral mansion parties to the steady growth of civic engagement, this conversation is for any CEO or founder ready for thinking differently in business and playing bigger. Learn how to stop breaking business rules for vanity and start using them to build a durable, high-impact career.Key Takeaways Success is often preceded by public failures that test your resolve. Reputation and reliability are more important than any single "viral" hit when challenging the status quo. Diversifying your skills from entertainment into civic and corporate spaces creates a more durable foundation for non-conformist leadership.Episode Highlights The turning point where a massive financial loss almost led Connor to quit the industry. How a viral party transition led to booking major rappers and working with Universal Music Group. The strategic shift from the glamor of nightlife to the impact of political event organizing. Why being the "smartest person in the room" is a trap compared to constant learning.Timestamps 00:00 - Introduction to Connor Treacy and his L.A. upbringing 05:30 - The early days of high school promoting and viral parties 12:15 - Facing a $7,500 failure and the lesson of "Midas touch" 22:45 - Working with Universal Music Group and elite nightlife 35:10 - Transitioning to political events and the Democratic Party 48:20 - The fear of irrelevance and the value of a solid reputationAbout the GuestConnor Treacy is a Los Angeles–based entrepreneur whose career spans nightlife, music, startups, and civic leadership. He went from throwing a viral mansion party at 19 to co-founding a West Hollywood nightclub generating $4M+ annually, then reinvented himself in music, venture building, and public leadership. His story is about reinvention, resilience, and building spaces where people collide, feel seen, and leave changed.Connect with Guest Website: https://connortreacy.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theconnortreacy/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/connortreacy/Connect with Hina WEBSITE I https://thehinasiddiqui.com/ LINKEDIN I / hinasiddiqui INSTAGRAM I @hinawithwings YOUTUBE I / @thehinasiddiqui Email I hina@thehinasiddiqui.comCheck out Hina's books: https://amzn.to/3B65Wz7Production Credit: Edited and produced by @the32collective_ / https://www.the32collective.co/

In this episode of Fuel for the Harvest, Nathan is joined by Forge speaker and pastor Chris Prather from Starkville, Mississippi, to explore what it really means to carry the presence of God in everyday life. Using the story of Saul, David, and the Ark of the Covenant, Chris unpacks the danger of building impressive “carts” for God while quietly sidelining His actual presence. Together they talk about cultivating a David-like heart, strengthening your “shoulder” through rhythms of worship and intimacy, and learning to live as a living sacrifice in ordinary places and vocations. Whether you're a pastor, student, or working a 9–5, this conversation will challenge you to move beyond reputation and production into a life deeply rooted in Jesus Himself.

Henry Lake dives into topics like America's reputation taking a hit around the world, the right to forgive or choose to hold a grudge, college hoops with Myron Medcalf, and a misguided comparison from Gov. Walz he's taking heat for making.

#759 What if a simple postcard could open the door to a full-blown, high-margin local marketing agency? In this episode, host Brien Gearin sits down with Dalton Joyner and Rachel Smith, founders of Big Sky Automation, to break down a simple (and surprisingly profitable) local-agency growth play: using shared direct-mail postcards as a “foot-in-the-door” offer that brings small businesses in fast — then upselling into higher-value services like web development, Google Business Profile optimization, and reputation management. Dalton and Rachel share their origin story, how they structure the postcard program, the exact tools they use to fulfill mailers through USPS EDDM, and how they keep execution simple with Canva and automation. They also reveal how they've turned the model into an online community that helps others launch the same business in their own towns! What we discuss with Dalton and Rachel: + Shared direct-mail postcards + Low-cost “foot-in-the-door” offers + Splitting postcard costs + USPS EDDM fulfillment + Local business lead generation + Upselling agency services + Google Business Profile optimization + Reputation management systems + High-margin postcard profits + Community-based agency model Thank you, Dalton and Rachel!

In this episode, we welcome Joe Eskenazi, CRO at Kong, to discuss the critical transition from an elite salesperson to a top-tier business leader. Joe shares how he bypassed the typical "salesperson" label by treating every interaction as a business consultancy, fueled by a concurrent MBA and an early career in sports broadcasting.

Joe also offers powerful advice on finding an authentic leadership voice and why organizations must prioritize leadership training to protect their talent.

You already have a personal brand, whether you've chosen it or not. And every meeting, email, and interaction at work is quietly shaping it.Many managers assume personal branding is about being visible online or promoting yourself.

It's essentially your reputation.This week's guest helps us unpack what personal brand really means at work and how to be intentional about it without feeling inauthentic, salesy, or self-promotional.Andy Storch is a keynote speaker, author of Own Your Career, Own Your Life and Own Your Brand, Own Your Career, and host of multiple podcasts.

Nick Gray (Founder of Museum Hack and Author of The 2-Hour Cocktail Party) is back — and this time the conversation goes beyond cocktail parties.(If you wanted to listen to our first episode together, you can ⁠find it here⁠.)Brian opens with a real-world test: hosting his first two-hour cocktail party, inviting “weak ties” into his home, and watching the surprising social physics play out (including 18 follow-up messages the next day). From there, Nick shares what he's been building lately — from an AI-assisted museum donor database (Patron View) to a simple but overlooked edge most people still don't use: proactive reputation management through a personal website.They dig into the mindset traps that quietly stall growth (like “adding too much value”), how to filter advice without getting pulled into noise, why focus is a real leadership skill, and why your digital footprint matters more than ever — especially if you're job hunting, hiring, networking, or just trying to control what people find when they Google your name.If you've been “meaning to” build a better network, a stronger personal brand, or a more intentional online presence… this one is your push.Chapters:00:00 — Nick returns + both are married now (plus Brian's cocktail party win)02:27 — Why the two-hour format works (and why people actually leave on time)03:38 — Nick's recent focus: Patron View, personal websites, investing, and events04:30 — Rapid Fire #1: If you could only use ONE business tool…05:23 — Rapid Fire #2: WhisperFlow vs SuperWhisper + voice-to-text workflow07:23 — Rapid Fire #3: What Nick had to unlearn (stop “adding too much value”)09:00 — Rapid Fire #4: How Nick filters advice (context + “too far out of the game”)12:49 — Rapid Fire #5: A lightbulb moment that changed Nick's trajectory (Cloudflare)14:35 — Why website speed matters (SEO, user behavior, bounce rates)15:16 — Nick's mantra: “Focus” + designing environments to stay locked in17:14 — Pomodoro timers + why coworking pressure beats solo discipline17:58 — Reputation management: why Nick's search results are strong (and why yours aren't)19:49 — Why everyone should own a personal website (and what it should include)23:43 — What to write if you're “not a writer” (surface area + conversational access points)27:18 — The real reason people avoid building a site (fear + identity + “who am I?”)36:21 — Job hunting reality: recruiters, AI filters, and how a website gives you an edge38:46 — The 2-step action plan: domain name → simple site (Carrd/WordPress)40:41 — Why being proactive matters (do it before you “need” it)42:07 — Where to find Nick + his $29/mo “done-for-you” website optionFind Nick Gray Online:Website: https://nickgray.net/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nickgraynews/Twitter: https://x.com/nickgraynewsInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/nickgraynews/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@nickgrayTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@nickgraynewsFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/newfriend

We explore what's broken in crypto funding, why reputation portability is essential for builders, how their Grantee Accountability Protocol (GAP) and onchain attestations shift trust dynamics, and what it looks like when funding becomes more than capital, and starts becoming real coordination infrastructure for long-term growth.You'll learn:

In episode 163 of the PreparedEx Podcast, we explore the often-overlooked gap between cybersecurity response and public communications during a cyber incident. While many organizations invest heavily in technical controls and incident response plans, far fewer are prepared to manage the reputational, regulatory, and stakeholder consequences that unfold in parallel. Rob Burton is joined by... The post Mind the Gap: Bridging Cybersecurity, Crisis Communications, and Reputation Risk appeared first on PreparedEx.

WILLIAM RANDOLPH HEARST'S OPPOSITION TO FDR Colleague David Pietrusza. Media tycoon William Randolph Hearst, who controls a vast network of newspapers and radio stations, turns against Roosevelt as the New Deal moves left. Hearst's reputation suffers after a controversial 1934 meeting with Hitler, which accelerates his decline in popularity. By 1936, Roosevelt views Hearst and the wealthy "economic royalists" as political targets. In a conversation with an intermediary, Roosevelt jokes about throwing millionaires to the wolves, further inflaming Hearst. Consequently, the publisher commits his media empire to unseating the President, seeking a Republican candidate to support. NUMBER 51936 BRITISH ARMY AT THE JAFFA GATE FOR THE TURMOIL IN PALESTINE

Check out host Bidemi Ologunde's new show: The Work Ethic Podcast, available on Spotify and Apple Podcasts.In this episode, host Bidemi Ologunde traces the blurry line between truth and virality—where influencer "exposés" can ignite celebrity sex scandals, trigger defamation lawsuits, and reward the loudest story rather than the most accurate one. How did scandal become a business model? What happens when deepfakes, rumor accounts, and clout incentives collide with real reputations—and real trauma? And in a surprising twist of the creator economy, how are influencers and OnlyFans creators increasingly positioning themselves as "extraordinary talent" in O-1 visa applications to enter the United States? Along the way, Bid weaves in the non-linear story of a high-end escort whose entry into that world coincided with abuse at home—revealing how private pain can echo through public spectacle. Who gets protected in the attention economy—and who gets used? What does "proof" even mean anymore? And what's the true cost of going viral?Email: bidemiologunde@gmail.comSupport for The Bid Picture Podcast comes from Whole Foods Market.

Based in San Diego but rooted in Nashville, Margie serves as a champion for leaders who want to elevate their impact and build cultures anchored in connection, integrity, and clarity.SHOW SUMMARYIn this episode of Selling from the Heart Podcast. Larry Levine and Darrell Amy are joined by Margie Newman Tsay, founder of Intesa Communications Group, who shares her expertise in strategic communications, reputation management, executive coaching, and crisis response. Margie emphasizes the need for clarity, brevity, and effective communication during crises and how these skills are essential for building trust and credibility. She also highlights the role of continuous learning and vulnerability in becoming a successful communicator, regardless of age or gender. The episode underscores the overlooked necessity of crisis communication training in the sales profession and offers actionable insights for sales leaders and professionals.KEY TAKEAWAYSCommunication requires repetition - Say things 10-11 times before people truly retain them; don't assume once is enough Make the customer the hero - Focus on their goals and needs, not your product or yourself Reputation is built daily - Trust and authenticity come from how you show up every single day, not just when making a sale Surprises are for birthdays - Over-communicate to avoid catching people off guard in business relationships Crisis communication essentials - Focus on brevity, roles, and goals; reduce oxygen to the flame rather than escalating Diversify your network - Learn from people across different ages, genders, and industries to expand your communication toolkit Humans first in crisis - Remember everyone defaults to fear and ego under pressure; sometimes people just need to be heardQUOTES"Selling from the heart means remembering that it's not about you. Make the customer the hero." "Surprises are for birthdays. You gotta communicate, communicate, communicate in four different ways to make sure people get it." "Leadership is context. When we stop communicating and giving that context, trust erodes." "No one is born a great communicator. This is a learned skill. You can start today being a great communicator." "In a crisis, our brains are ego and overwhelm. We immediately need to know what is going on, how do we solve for it, and what's my job." "What's the closest gator to your boat? You take 'em one gator at a time." (on prioritizing in crisis) "Everyone is a human first. Ego and fear don't bring out the best in any person, and that is what you're dealing with in a crisis."Learn more about Margie Newman Tsay.LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/margienewmantsay/Learn more about Darrell and Larry.Darrell's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/darrellamy/Larry's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/larrylevine1992/Website: https://www.sellingfromtheheart.net/ADDITIONAL RESOURCESDiscover Heart-Centered Leadership:Explore the Culture from the Heart Podcast and uncover the secrets to thriving workplace cultures.

Your reputation is not built in big moments. Not in launches. Not in promotions. Not in big wins. It's built quietly — through the small, ordinary habits you repeat every single day. In this episode, I invite you to look at something most people overlook: the invisible signals your daily habits send about who you are. This is not an episode about doing more, working harder, or staying busy. And it's definitely not about perfection. Instead, we explore how productivity, identity, energy, and follow-through shape how people experience you — often without you realizing it. I share a personal reflection that made me pause and ask a slightly uncomfortable but powerful question: "What are my habits actually teaching people about me?" Because people don't experience your intentions. They experience your patterns. This episode will help you slow down, reflect, and intentionally align your habits with the reputation you truly want — professionally and personally.

a16z cofounders Marc Andreessen and Ben Horowitz join a16z general partner Erik Torenberg and Not Boring founder Packy McCormick for a conversation on how the media and information ecosystem has changed over the past decade. The discussion breaks down the shift toward a more open and decentralized speech environment, the rise of writer- and creator-led platforms like Substack, and the erosion of centralized media gatekeepers. Marc and Ben also tie these dynamics to their investing worldview, outlining how supply-driven markets, major technological step changes, and reputation-driven venture platforms shape outcomes in the AI era.Timecodes: 00:00  Introduction00:46  How the media ecosystem is changing4:20  Why a16z invested in Substack6:28  Supply-driven markets and new content creation8:07  Why writers felt trapped by media companies10:09  Databricks and the 10x cloud multiplier13:58  Long-form podcasting proves demand15:40  What the new fund signals about the future16:24  AI as a universal problem solver18:49  Why market sizing is broken20:45  Go-to-market, policy, and platform power22:37  Turning inventors into confident CEOs25:58  Borrowing power to scale faster27:29  Building dreamers, not killing dreams30:46  Reputation as a core competitive advantage35:57  Taking arrows in public38:56  Avoiding big company failure modes40:39  Autonomous teams inside a16z41:54  Venture capital as the last job46:01  Why intangibles matter more than ever48:17  Original thinkers with charisma50:06  Why Zoomers are differentResources: https://www.notboring.co/p/a16z-the-power-brokershttps://www.a16z.news/p/firm-fundFollow Marc Andreessen on X: https://twitter.com/pmarcaFollow Ben Horowitz on X: https://twitter.com/bhorowitzFollow Erik Torenberg on X: https://twitter.com/eriktorenbergFollow Packy McCormick on X: https://twitter.com/packyM Stay Updated:If you enjoyed this episode, be sure to like, subscribe, and share with your friends!Find a16z on X: https://twitter.com/a16zFind a16z on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/a16zListen to the a16z Podcast on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5bC65RDvs3oxnLyqqvkUYXListen to the a16z Podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/a16z-podcast/id842818711Follow our host: https://twitter.com/eriktorenberg](https://x.com/eriktorenbergPlease note that the content here is for informational purposes only; should NOT be taken as legal, business, tax, or investment advice or be used to evaluate any investment or security; and is not directed at any investors or potential investors in any a16z fund. a16z and its affiliates may maintain investments in the companies discussed.

Every leader hits this moment. You're in a great conversation with a recruit, and then they say it: "I'm also talking to another leader… someone with a big name." If you've ever felt like you were up against someone else's brand, you're not alone, and you're not powerless. In this episode of Recruiting Conversations, I walk you through how to stop playing defense and start leading with the one thing no other brand can replicate: your unique value. Episode Breakdown [00:00] Introduction – When you're up against a leader with more visibility, more experience, or a stronger reputation [01:00] Don't Let Comparison Kill Your Confidence – Your value isn't in your resume or following, it's in how you lead and what you believe [01:45] Branding Creates Awareness. Alignment Creates Movement – Just because someone is well known doesn't mean they're the right fit [02:30] You Don't Need to Be the Loudest. You Need to Be the Clearest – Recruits follow leaders who know where they're going [03:00] Start With Your Leadership DNA – What makes you different? How do people grow under your leadership? What do you care deeply about? [04:00] Brand Is the Public Expression of Your Private Values – When your content, conversations, and follow-up reflect the real you, you create trust [04:30] Ask a Better Question – Instead of "How do I compete?" ask "What kind of leader am I uniquely qualified to be, and how can I make that visible?" [05:00] Show Up With Integrity, Not Imitation – Tell your story, share your team culture, and let your vision be seen [06:00] Recruits Aren't Comparing Jobs. They're Comparing Futures – Paint a clear picture of where you're going and why it matters [06:45] Your Brand Isn't Flashy. It's Familiar – When the version of you people see online matches who they meet in real life, trust multiplies [07:10] Final Word – You don't need to chase someone else's reputation. Build your leadership presence. That's what truly attracts the right people Key Takeaways Your Leadership Style Is the Asset – Own it, articulate it, and build your brand around it You Don't Need More Volume. You Need More Clarity – Recruits follow leaders who know who they are and where they're going Brand Integrity > Brand Visibility – What builds trust is consistency between your message and your actions You Can't Fake Alignment – The right people will be drawn to your real voice, not someone else's strategy Stop Trying to Win by Comparison. Win Through Conviction – A clear, consistent brand that reflects who you are will outperform reputation alone In a crowded market, the loudest leader doesn't win. The clearest one does. Stop trying to compete with someone else's voice, start amplifying your own.

Send us a textWe see so many salon owners who are busy every day but still feel stuck. They're cleaning, reorganizing, researching, scrolling, and “preparing,” yet nothing meaningful seems to change. The problem isn't effort. The problem is direction.In this episode, we talk about momentum and what actually moves the needle in your business. We break down why busy work feels productive but rarely compounds, why indecision often disguises itself as preparation, and how small, boring decisions create far more progress than flashy ones.We share real examples from our own journey, from complicated booking systems and tree-named stylist levels to endless research on vacuums, software, and tools that ultimately don't matter. Momentum isn't built through perfection. It's built through action, testing, and refining.Your business should serve you, so that you can serve others. Momentum comes when you stop waiting for certainty and start making decisions that actually shape your future.Key TakeawaysBusy work creates motion, not momentum.Momentum is built through decisions, not perfection.Simple systems outperform creative but confusing ones.Endless research often hides fear of commitment.Owners must make the uncomfortable decisions others can't.Reputation and culture compound faster than tactics.Boring work usually produces the biggest growth.Systems don't need to be perfect to be powerful.Indecision is more expensive than mistakes.Momentum grows when action replaces hesitation.Time Stamps00:00 — Welcome + defining momentum 01:00 — Jen's opening take: simple booking beats creative systems 03:00 — Todd's opening take: sunk cost fallacy 05:00 — Why busy ≠ progress 07:00 — Technician vs entrepreneur mindset 09:00 — The danger of endless research 11:00 — Social media consumption vs real work 13:00 — What momentum actually creates (clients + hiring) 15:00 — Reputation and culture compound 17:00 — Shortcuts vs long-term leadership 19:00 — Boring work builds businesses 21:00 — Indecision disguised as preparation 23:00 — Decisions only owners should make 25:00 — Systems, standards, and consistency 27:00 — Discomfort is part of momentum 29:00 — Final thoughts + new year momentumLinks and Stuff:Our Newsletter Mentoring InquiriesFind more of our things:InstagramHello Hair Pro Website

Throughout 2025, I sat down with CEOs, founders, investors, and leaders across the private equity ecosystem. In every conversation, I asked a question that I have asked since the very first episode of Private Equity Fast Pitch:   What's the quote, motto, or what drives you?   The answers were telling as there were no slogans or catchy buzzwords.   What stood out was a shared seriousness about how success is built over time. Intention. Discipline. Mentorship. Compassion. Consistency. A deep respect for people and for the responsibility that comes with leadership.   These are not quotes for social media. They are reference points for leadership.   I'm incredibly grateful for these guests time and our impactful conversations. And grateful to be able to bring these voices to the private equity community.   The Ninth Annual Quotes and Mottos montage features perspectives from our 2025 guests:   Erik Brooks – Founder & Managing Partner, Ethos Capital Action over analysis.

In this episode, I dive into the difference between reputation and reality. Reputation is what people think of you, while reality is who you actually are when no one is watching. I share why top performers focus on building their reality first, letting their reputation naturally follow. Using LeBron James and Michael Jordan as examples, I show how reality eventually forces reputation to catch up. The key takeaway: master your reality, and your reputation will adjust on its own. Show Notes: [04:32]#1 Reputation is a story, whereas reality is a standard.   [09:24]#2 Reputation cannot be manufactured.  [15:55]#3 Reputation without reality will collapse under pressure.  [18:53] Recap Next Steps: --- Power Presence is not taught.

Details live here: http://PowerPresenceProtocol.com/Mastermind  This Masterclass is the public record of standards. Private enforcement happens elsewhere.
