Times Have Changed for CEO's...Get Switched On! In high-pressure moments, are you truly in control of your decisions, or is your brain just reacting? The truth is, when stress kicks in, most of us default to old patterns stored in the back of our brains—patterns that often lead to bad choices. That's why Steven R. Falk, author of The Switched On CEO, is joining A New Direction to reveal how leaders can retrain their brains to think strategically—even in the heat of the moment. We like to believe we're rational decision-makers, but when the stakes are high, our survival instincts take over. Falk's Switchback System is designed to help leaders recognize when they're slipping into reactive thinking and switch back to the rational, problem-solving part of the brain. If you're leading a business, a team, or even just your own career, mastering this skill is a game-changer. Great leaders don't just survive under pressure—they thrive because they know how to take control of their own minds. Falk will share how the best CEOs, entrepreneurs, and decision-makers override fear-based thinking, break free from unproductive mental loops, and make smarter choices—no matter the circumstances. If you've ever felt stuck or frustrated by the way you react in high-stress situations, you don't want to miss this conversation. This isn't just another leadership talk—it's a chance to rewire the way you think, lead, and make decisions when it matters most. Invite your colleagues, and get ready to flip the switch on your leadership! Steven Falk's Book, "The Switched-On CEO: How to Think Like a World-Class Leader" is one of the most insightful looks at the psychology of the CEO you will find. The book is a rediscovery of who we are, not just as CEO's, but people. How we are so easily triggered by past thoughts in the back of our brain that we lose control of ourselves and our decision-making processes. As soon as something happens in our life, or the wrong person says the wrong thing, the next thing you know, our rational/logical thinking front brain is taken over by escalating emotion and irrationality. And hence, we become "predictably irrational". This book is a look at how our thinking betrays us. How we can move those past negative memories that trigger us (which Steven Falk calls our "Xs"), move them into the front of our brain, deal with them and move on. The key to all of this...A growth mindset. We must have the willingness and firm belief that we can change! But not only us, but that others can change as well. Steven then adapts the Switchback process to the concept of TEAM. He digs into "The 3-Lane conversation" where he will even discuss how to deal with the difficult conversation that CEO's must have. The book is a "how-to" guide for anyone who wants to move themselves, their TEAM, and their entire company to a "world-class" level. The Switched-On CEO, is truly a powerful, practical book.

So many times, the person we're writing for is a past version of ourselves. We've been through some things and we want to help others who are going through similar situations. But sometimes, the topics we write about involve how others have hurt us, either intentionally or unintentionally. As Christian writers, how do we handle those topics with grace, truth, and forgiveness in a way that will help our reader but not encourage anger and bitterness? In my conversation with author Kori Morgan, we talk about how she learned to navigate that tension in her new book, “Why I Dyed My Hair Purple and Other Unorthodox Stories”. I think you'll find her gospel-centered approach refreshing and encouraging.Kori Frazier Morgan is an author, disciple, and creative entrepreneur.

Innovation in beer has been accelerating for the past decade as breweries—excited by new styles and techniques, and feeding a culture of newness incentivized by social apps—churn out a relentless quantity of new beers in new formats with new labels. However, to hear Bill Cherry tell it, the choices he's made at Switchback (https://www.switchbackvt.com) over the past two decades have been driven more by slowness than speed. Packaging in 22-ounce bombers so they could dial in packaging before moving to more popular formats, or pursuing innovation in smoked beer because demand (and competition) in that niche are small, have afforded the brewery time and space to figure it out and build demand organically, always focusing first on the beer and its quality. The results have paid off over recent years, with 2022 gold and 2023 bronze medals at the World Beer Cup for Katie's Love Poem, their grodziskie. But that's just the kindling, as their broader Flynn on Fire series has seen them tackle and learn from a vast array of different smoked beers. Cherry loves smoked beer because they're harder to sell to consumers—there isn't a built-in market for them, so they have to create one, and he loves that challenge as well as the runway for lower-stakes experimentation. In this episode, he talks through that counterintuitive strategy and how it relates to their approach to innovation, including: designing Switchback Ale based on pieces of other inspirational beers growing slowly to make sure beer quality is always top priority packaging draft only for the first 10 years of the brewery until they could afford a quality bottling line homing in on smoked because because “nobody likes smoked beers, but they should” creating the smoke-o-meter scale for conveying smokiness to consumers step-mashing for flavor, not just attenuation maintaining a living yeast pitch that's going on 2,000-plus generations balancing hop flavor and smoke aroma in smoked IPA And more. “if you can get people to drink something that they don't know they want, that's true craft,” says Cherry.
