In this episode, Jamie speaks with long-time senior technology executive David Weiss, Operating Partner at Thoma Bravo and Clearhaven Partners.  Jamie finished the interview, turned to her producer and said, “Now that is what excellence in leadership looks like!” David says that while many leaders have a gift of natural charisma, he relies on a very intentional approach to leadership that has turned out to be a strength.  Drawing upon Eduardo Briceno's work, he advises leaders and teams to know when they are in the “performance zone” and when they are in the “learning zone.”  He describes the stages he sees companies grow through and why assessing complexity is just as important as measuring revenue.  David gives us a short primer on how private equity firms work and discusses 3 of 10 levers of scale he has identified.  One of those levers is culture and he introduces his very interesting “Energy Creator Framework” making the case that it's not enough to make sure you have the right people; your organization needs the right energy from those people.  David is an extraordinary leader; you will find yourself playing and replaying this episode in the weeks to come.   During this episode, David refers to the following work: The Performance Paradox: Turning the Power of Mindset into Action by Eduardo Briceno What Leaders Really Do by John Kotter (especially Chapter 3)   Executive Access is produced by The Ideal Life, a platform that provides coaching, community, and content for people to grow both personally and professionally.

The latest economic indicators highlight a steady U.S. GDP growth rate of 2.8% for the third quarter of 2024. This growth is supported by a notable increase in consumer spending, which rose at a 3.7% annualized rate. However, the job market shows signs of stagnation, with only 12,000 new jobs added in October, raising concerns about underlying weaknesses. Despite the unemployment rate remaining steady at 4.1%, the episode emphasizes the challenges faced by small businesses in filling job vacancies, particularly in sectors like construction and transportation.Host Dave Sobel also delves into the tech employment landscape, noting that while the tech unemployment rate held steady at 2.6%, the sector experienced a slight decline in jobs. The report from CompTIA indicates a positive trend in job listings for tech positions, but the overall employment numbers reflect a tightening labor market. The episode highlights the struggles small businesses face in hiring qualified candidates, with many owners reporting unfilled job openings and a decrease in hiring efforts.The episode shifts focus to Intel, which has reported a staggering $16.6 billion loss for the third quarter, marking the largest quarterly loss in its history. This loss is attributed to significant asset depreciation and restructuring charges following substantial layoffs. Sobel discusses the competitive landscape, particularly the challenges Intel faces from rivals like Nvidia and AMD in the AI chip market. In contrast, Reddit has reported its first profitable quarter as a public company, showcasing a significant turnaround and strong investor confidence.Finally, the episode covers the acquisition of CompTIA's certification business by HIG Capital and Thoma Bravo, transitioning it to a for-profit model. This move raises questions about the future of CompTIA's mission to serve the IT industry and the implications for its existing non-profit organization. Sobel encourages listeners to reevaluate their relationships with CompTIA in light of these changes, emphasizing the evolving landscape of certification and training in the tech industry. Three things to know today00:00 US GDP Growth Holds Steady at 2.8%, But Job Market Weakens Amid Small Business Hiring Struggles and Tech Stability05:15 Intel Reports Record $16.6 Billion Loss Amid Layoffs and Depreciation, While Reddit Achieves First Profitable Quarter07:10 H.I.G.
