WhoBarry Owens, General Manager of Treetops, MichiganRecorded onJune 13, 2025About TreetopsClick here for a mountain stats overviewOwned by: Treetops Acquisition Company LLCLocated in: Gaylord, MichiganYear founded: 1954Pass affiliations: Indy Pass, Indy+ Pass – 2 daysClosest neighboring ski areas: Otsego (:07), Boyne Mountain (:34), Hanson Hills (:39), Shanty Creek (:51), The Highlands (:58), Nub's Nob (1:00)Base elevation: 1,110 feetSummit elevation: 1,333 feetVertical drop: 223 feetSkiable acres: 80Average annual snowfall: 140 inchesTrail count: 25 (30% beginner, 40% intermediate, 30% advanced)Lift count: 5 (3 triples, 2 carpets – view Lift Blog's inventory of Treetops' lift fleet)Why I interviewed himThe first 10 ski areas I ever skied, in order, were:* Mott Mountain, Michigan* Apple Mountain, Michigan* Snow Snake, Michigan* Caberfae, Michigan* Crystal Mountain, Michigan* Nub's Nob, Michigan* Skyline, Michigan* Treetops, Michigan* Sugar Loaf, Michigan* Shanty Creek – Schuss Mountain, MichiganAnd here are the first 10 ski areas I ever skied that are still open, with anything that didn't make it crossed out:* Mott Mountain, Michigan* Apple Mountain, Michigan* Snow Snake, Michigan* Caberfae, Michigan* Crystal Mountain, Michigan* Nub's Nob, Michigan* Skyline, Michigan* Treetops, Michigan* Sugar Loaf, Michigan* Shanty Creek – Schuss Mountain, Michigan* Shanty Creek – Summit, Michigan* Boyne Mountain, Michigan* Searchmont, Ontario* Nebraski, Nebraska* Copper Mountain, Colorado* Keystone, ColoradoSix of my first 16. Poof. That's a failure rate of 37.5 percent. I'm no statistician, but I'd categorize that as “not good.”Now, there's some nuance to this list. I skied all of these between 1992 and 1995. Most had faded officially or functionally by 2000, around the time that America's Great Ski Area Die-Off concluded (Summit lasted until around Covid, and could still re-open, resort officials tell me). Their causes of death are varied, some combination, usually, of incompetence, indifference, and failure to adapt. To climate change, yes, but more of the cultural kind of adaptation than the environmental sort.The first dozen ski areas on this list are tightly bunched, geographically, in the upper half of Michigan's Lower Peninsula. They draw from the same general population centers and suffer from the same stunted Midwest verticals. None are naturally or automatically great ski areas. None are or were particularly remote or tricky to access, and most sit alongside or near a major state or federal highway. And they (mostly) all benefit from the same Lake Michigan lake-effect snow machine, the output of which appears to be increasing as the Great Lakes freeze more slowly and less often (cold air flowing over warm water = lake-effect snow).Had you presented this list of a dozen Michigan ski areas to me in 1995 and said, “five of these will drop dead in the next 30 years,” I would not have chosen those five, necessarily, to fail. These weren't ropetow backwaters. All but Apple had chairlifts (and they soon installed one), and most sat close to cities or were attached to a larger resort. Sugar Loaf, in particular, was one of Michigan's better ski areas, with five chairlifts and the largest in-state vertical drop on this list.My guess for most-likely-to-die probably would have been Treetops, especially if you'd told me that then-private Otsego ski area, right next door and with twice its neighbor's skiable acreage, vertical drop, and number of chairlifts, would eventually open to the public. Especially if you'd told me that Boyne Mountain, the monster down the road, would continue to expand its lodging and village, and would add a Treetops-sized cluster of greens to its ferocious ridge of blacks. Especially if you'd told me that Treetops' trail footprint, never substantial, would remain more or less the same size 30 years later. In fact, just about every surviving Michigan ski area on that list - Crystal, Nub's, Caberfae, Shanty Schuss - greatly expanded its terrain footprint. Except Treetops.But here we are, in the future, and I just skied Treetops 10 months ago with my 8-year-old son. It was, in some ways, more or less as I'd left it on my last visit, in 1995: small vert, small trail network, a slightly confusing parking situation, no chairlift restraint bars. A few improvements were obvious: the beginner ropetows had made way for a carpet, the last double chair had been upgraded to a triple, terrain park features dotted the east side, and a dozen or so glades and short steep shots had been hacked from the woods of the legacy trail footprint.That's all nice. But what was not obvious to me was this: why, and how, does Treetops the ski area still exist? Sugar Loaf was a better ski area. Apple Mountain was closer to large population centers. Summit was attached to ski-in-ski-out accommodations and shared a lift ticket with the larger Schuss mountain a couple miles away. Was modern Treetops some sort of money-losing ski area hobby horse for whomever owned the larger resort, which is better known for its five golf courses? Was it just an amenity to keep the second homeowners who mostly lived in Southeast Michigan invested year-round? Had the ski area cemented itself as the kind of high-volume schoolkids training ground that explained the resilience of ski areas in metro Detroit, Minneapolis, and Milwaukee?There is never, or rarely, one easy or obvious explanation for why similar businesses thrive or fail. This is why I resist pinning the numerical decline in America's ski area inventory solely to climate change. We may have fewer ski areas in America than we had in 1995, but we have a lot more good ski areas now than we did 30 years ago (and, as I wrote in March, a lot more overall ski terrain). Yes, Skyline, 40 minutes south of Treetops, failed because it never installed snowmaking, but that is only part of the sentence. Skyline failed because it never installed snowmaking while its competitors aggressively expanded and continually updated their snowmaking systems, raising the floor on the minimal ski experience acceptable to consumers. That takes us back to culture. What do you reckon has changed more over the past 30 to 40 years: America's weather patterns, or its culture? For anyone who remembers ashtrays at McDonald's or who rode in the bed of a pickup truck from Michigan to Illinois or who ran feral and unsupervised outdoors from toddlerhood or who somehow fumbled through this vast world without the internet or a Pet Rectangle or their evil offspring social media, the answer seems obvious. The weather feels a little different. Our culture feels airlifted from another planet. Americans accepted things 30 years ago that would seem outrageous today – like smoking adjacent to a children's play area ornamented with a demented smiling clown. But this applies to skiing as well. My Treetops day in 1995 was memorably horrible, the snow groomed but fossilized, unturnable. A few weeks earlier, I'd skied Skyline on perhaps a three-inch base, grass poking through the trails. Modern skiers, armed with the internet and its Hubble connection to every ski area on the planet, would not accept either set of conditions today. But one of those ski areas adapted and the other did not. That's the “why” of Treetops survival. It was the “how” that I needed Barry Owens to help me understand.What we talked aboutLast winter's ice storm – “it provides great insight into human character when you go through that stuff”; record snowfall (204 inches!) to chase the worst winter ever; the Lake Michigan snowbelt; a golf resort with a ski area attached; building a ski culture when “we didn't have enough people dedicated to ski… and it showed”; competing with nearby ski areas many times Treetops' size “we don't shy away from… who we are and what we are”; what happened when next-door-neighbor Otsego Resort switched from a private to a public model in 2017 – “neither one of us is going to get rich seeing who can get the most $15 lift tickets on a Wednesday”; I attempt to talk about golf and why Michigan is a golf mecca; moving on from something you've spent decades building; Treetops' rough financial period and why Owens initially turned down the GM job; how Owens convinced ownership not to close the ski area; fixing a “can't-do staff” by “doing things that created the freedom to be able to act”; Treetops' strange 2014 bankruptcy and rebuilding from there; “right now we're happy” with the lift fleet; how much it would cost to retrofit Treetops' lifts with restraint bars; timeline for potential ski expansion at Treetops; bargain season passes (as low as $125); and Indy Pass' network power.What I got wrong* I said “Gaylord County,” but the city of Gaylord is in Otsego County.* I said that Boyne Resorts, operator of 11 ski areas, also runs “10 or 11 golf resorts.” The company operates 14 golf courses.* I said that Michigan had a “very good” road network and that there was “not a lot of traffic,” and if you live there, you're reaction is probably, “you're dumb.” What I meant by “very good road network” is this: compared to most ski regions, which have, um, mountains, Michigan's bumplets sit more or less directly alongside the state's straight, flat, almost perfectly gridded highway network. Also, the “not a lot of traffic” thing does not apply to special situations like, say, northbound I-75 on a July Friday evening.* I said that Crystal, Nub's, Caberfae, and Shanty Creek were “close” – while they're not necessarily all close to one another, they are all roughly equidistant for folks coming to them from downstate.* I said that Treetops was “the fifth or sixth place I ever skied at,” but upon further review, it was number eight (which is reflected in the list above).Podcast NotesOn the ice stormAn ice storm hammered Northern Michigan in late March of this year:On the lightning strike on Treetops' golf courseOn the Midwest's terrible 2023-24 ski seasonSkier visits cratered in the Midwest during the 2023-24 ski season, the region's worst on record from a snowfall point of view. Weather - and skier visits - settled back into normal ranges last winter:This is a bit hard to see with any sort of precision, but this 10-year chart gives a nice sense of just how abnormal 2023-24 was for the Midwest:On Michigan's ski areasMichigan is home to 44 active ski areas - more than any state other than New York. Many of them are quite small, operate sporadically, and run only surface lifts, but Treetops is close to a bunch of the better lift-served outfits, including Boyne Mountain, Nub's Nob, and The Highlands (the UP ski areas may as well be in another state). It helps Treetops that so many of the state's ski areas have also joined Indy Pass:On Otsego ResortFor decades - I'm not certain how long, exactly - Otsego Resort, right next door to Treetops and with roughly double the vertical drop and skiable acreage, was private. In 2017, the bump opened to the public, considerably amping up competition. Complicating the matter further, Otsego sits a bit closer to Michigan's Main Street - I-75 - than Treetops.On Snow OperatingOwens mentioned working with “TBL” – he was referring to Terrain Based Learning, Snow Partners' learn-to-ski program. That company also runs the Snow Cloud operating system that Owens refers to at the end.On Treetops' rough period I quoted this Detroit Business News article at length in the interview. It goes deep on Treetops' precarious early 2000s history and the resort's broken employee culture at the time.On people being nice at ski areasYeah I'm super into this:On the hedgehog conceptOwens mentions “the hedgehog concept,” which I wasn't familiar with. It sounded like a business-book thing, and it is, adapted by author Jim Collins for his book Good to Great and described in this way on his website:The Hedgehog Concept is developed in the book Good to Great. A simple, crystalline concept that flows from deep understanding about the intersection of three circles: 1) what you are deeply passionate about, 2) what you can be the best in the world at, and 3) what best drives your economic or resource engine. Transformations from good to great come about by a series of good decisions made consistently with a Hedgehog Concept, supremely well executed, accumulating one upon another, over a long period of time.More:On safety-bar requirements in New York and New EnglandThis is kind of funny…That's my 8-year-old son, who's skied in a dozen states, taking his first ride on a lift with no safety bar, at Treetops last December. Why such machines still exist in 2025, I have no idea - this lift rises about 30 feet off the ground. In the East, all chairlifts are equipped with bars, and state law mandates their use in New York, Massachusetts, and Vermont (and perhaps elsewhere). I don't advocate for rider mandates, but I do think all chairlifts ought to have bars available for those who want them. Owens and I discuss the resort's plans to retrofit Treetops' three chairlifts - CTEC machines installed between 1984 and 1995 - with bars. The cost would be roughly $250,000. That's a significant number, but probably a lot less than the figure if, say, someone has a heart attack or seizure on the lift, falls off, then sues the resort. Besides, as Owens points out, chairlifts must be equipped with restraint bars for summer use, which would open new revenue streams. Why are bars required for summer activities, but not winter? It's a strange anachronism, unique among the ski world to America.On “Joe from SMI”I mentioned “Joe from SMI” offhand. I was referring to SMI Snowmakers President Joe VanderKelen, who appeared on the podcast back in 2022:On potential expansion Owens discusses a potential expansion looker's left of Chair 1, which would restore lost terrain and built upon that. This 1988 trailmap shows a couple of the trails that Treetops eliminated to make way for its current top-to-bottom access road (trails 1 through 4):The Storm explores the world of lift-served skiing year-round.

Summary: In this episode of the Customer Service Revolution podcast, Denise Thompson and Dave Murray discuss the critical importance of customer experience consulting across various industries. They explore how systems and structures can enhance customer interactions, the significance of internal communication, and the need for organizations to recognize their role in the customer experience. The conversation highlights successful client transformations, the impact of silos, and the essential link between employee and customer experiences. They also provide actionable insights for leaders looking to improve their organizations and ensure lasting change after consulting engagements. Takeaways: Customer experience consulting is essential for all industries. World-class service requires structured systems, not just slogans. Internal communication gaps often erode customer experience. Every employee has a role in the customer experience. Transformations can turn customer service initiatives into cultural norms. Silos within organizations can negatively impact customer engagement. Identifying internal issues is crucial for improving customer experience. Leaders must support their teams to enhance customer service. Small changes can lead to significant improvements in customer interactions. Measuring ROI is vital for understanding the impact of customer experience initiatives.

Transformations are everywhere—from VC-backed scale-ups to Big Tech—and sales teams are feeling it. In this Sales Performance Podcast episode, Ariane Riddell, Chief Sales Officer at Personal Group (ex-LinkedIn, BBC, Feefo), shares a people-first playbook for leading through change: embedding values that stick, resetting the first 90 days, and rebuilding commercial muscle across sales and post-sales.We dig into: redefining proposition and narrative (benefits > product), putting real foundations in (process, people, product, leadership), using enablement tools (Salesloft, Walnut, Salesforce), and moving teams from inbound-reliant to outbound-confident. Ariane's “top-down & bottom-up” framework for expansion, plus the candid reality of “love them in or love them out,” make this a must-listen for CROs and CSOs in transition.You'll learnHow to set credible 30/60/90 priorities in a messy realityWhat values do for pace, passion & professionalismBuilding outbound habits that actually stick (and why phone still matters)Coaching CS to drive land–expand with data-led plays

In this episode, a conversation with Andrew Pippos, the author of Lucky's, awarded the Readings Prize for Fiction, on his new, forthcoming book, The Transformations. In the fading glow of Australia's print journalism era, The National is more than a newspaper: it's an institution, and the only place that George Desoulis has ever felt at home. A world-weary subeditor with a bookish sensibility and a painful past, George is one of nature's loners. But a late-night encounter with an unorthodox and self-assured reporter, Cassandra Gwan, begins to unravel both of their carefully managed worlds. As the decline of the newspaper enters a desperate stage, George and Cassandra struggle to balance their turbulent relationship with their responsibilities to family, and the compromises each has built their life upon. With a deft wit and a sharp eye for emotional complexity, Pippos examines the stories we tell ourselves, and the ways people handle grief, guilt and generational change. The Transformations is a novel about endings – of dreams, relationships, institutions – and the chance of new beginnings.

In this engaging episode of the Maximum Lawyer Podcast, SEO expert and entrepreneur Jason Hennessey shares his journey from mobile DJ to founder of Hennessey Digital, detailing how necessity led him to discover SEO. He discusses the evolution of SEO, the impact of AI, and practical strategies for law firms.Jason speaks about the future of AI in SEO. In the early days of Jason's career, AI was being used to reverse engineer websites to figure out what was working, which was very time consuming. In this day and age, AI is a lot more accessible and is being used by different people for different things. For companies like Jason's, AI has opened the door to allow for more traffic because his service can reach different people due to AI's diverse usage.Jason and Tyson discuss the errors law firms make with their websites. One thing is people do not take action when they have the steps in order to do so. This is seen with many people who attend law conferences. Another error is trying to implement a solution right away and thinking it is going to solve the problem. Jason gives an example of a company hiring someone to design or maintain a website, but not having any oversight whatsoever. This can cause a lot of issues for a business owner who can lose control of what they are creating.Listen in to learn more!6:20 How SEO has changed10:01 Early adoption of AI and the future of AI in SEO17:41 Lifestyle businesses versus growth-focused businesses20:09 Frequent errors law firms make with their websites38:35 How social media now impacts SEO Tune in to today's episode and checkout the full show notes here. Connect with Jason:Website  Instagram  X FacebookLinkedin Youtube

In this episode of Remodelers on the Rise, Kyle sits down with Chris Moore of Senior Remodeling Experts to unpack why aging in place can be the golden goose for remodelers. Chris breaks down the three segments of the market (traumatic change, progressive change, and no urgent needs) and shows how to weave smart, subtle upgrades into standard projects: three-foot doors, curbless showers, blocking for future grab bars, stacked closets for a future elevator, removable cabinet fronts, and ceiling-lift framing. They talk about messaging that avoids stigma, why most homes are “Peter Pan" housing, and how aging in place is a team sport. You'll also hear Chris's purpose-driven story, the impact of VA grants and Virginia's Livable Homes Tax Credit, and his “Age Out Loud” mission to celebrate later-life living. Bonus: a quick productivity nugget from Kyle to tame your inbox and focus your day. ----- Want to keep in touch with past clients and prospects without the hassle of writing content yourself?

L'automne peignait la forêt de rouge, d'or et d'orange.Dans ce décor vibrant, Éole le petit hérisson découvre que parfois, il suffit d'écouter le vent pour comprendre qu'il est temps de ralentir.Alors que tout s'agite autour de lui, il apprend à se poser, à respirer, à accueillir le souffle tranquille de la nature. Un conte poétique et apaisant sur la lenteur, le repos et la sagesse des saisons, à partager en famille, à la maison ou à l'école.Le souffle des feuilles clôt la série des contes philosophiques de La nature de l'enfance, un voyage à travers les saisons pour semer des réflexions profondes chez les petits comme chez les grands.Ce conte est un complément à l'épisode #44 sur la philosophie avec les enfants avec Linda Termine. 

By its nature, the gospel transforms a dead human being into a living child of God. Over a lifetime, Christians are meant to gradually display the power of God as He changes their life and matures them to Christlikeness. But obedience doesn't stop at the moment of salvation. It continues for eternity. As we continue the year of Gospel Focus in this episode, Pastor Philip Jackson reminds us in Hebrews 5 and 6 that healthy Christians mature and reproduce themselves for the glory of God. If we want to put Jesus on display, it will require total submission to the commands of Christ.Get Connected! https://linktr.ee/reachtulsa

Lalita du Perron welcomes Sumeet Mhaskar to discuss his Fulbright Fellowship in the Department of Anthropology at Stanford and his book project on the changing job landscape in the textile mills of Mumbai.

In this talk, Kisei shares Case 58 from The Hidden Lamp, drawn from the Vimalakīrti Sūtra, where the goddess playfully transforms Shariputra to reveal the truth of nonduality beyond male and female. She explores the Mahayana roots of the story, its revolutionary challenge to purity doctrines, and its affirmation that awakening is not bound by gender, role, or condition. Through Rinzai's “four positions” and a guided koan exercise, Kisei invites us to embody both Shariputra and the goddess, to see where our own identities and resistances arise, and to discover the freedom of dropping all positions. The talk closes with Chōzen Roshi's reflections on zazen as both microscope and telescope, returning us to spaciousness as the ground of all forms. ★ Support this podcast ★

Taking care of ourselves doesn't always mean overhauling everything; it can start with one small choice to finally put our health first. That's exactly what Tracy Slavik did after years of struggling with PCOS, weight, and hormonal ups and downs. She opened up about how she lost 100 pounds, regained her energy, and started trusting her body again with my Keto Green 16 program. Her story is such a reminder that real change is possible, even when it feels out of reach.   You'll also hear from Angela Crump, who shares how she found her way back to joy after heartbreaking losses. Grief shook her world, but choosing self-care became her way of healing. She talks honestly about what it looked like to put her health back on the list and how those choices gave her life a new kind of vibrancy.   Both Tracy and Angela show us that when we take care of ourselves, everything else in life begins to shift too. This episode is full of real-life lessons, little mindset shifts, and encouragement that will meet you right where you are.

TALK TO ME, TEXT ITEver noticed how quick people are to judge what they don't understand? Today's candid morning reflection dives into the frustration of watching uninformed critics attack public figures like Charlie Kirk while openly admitting they know nothing about him. It's not the unhinged rants from predictable quarters that bother me—it's the supposedly reasonable people who speak with unearned authority.The contradictions don't stop there. When "Hacks" actress Hannah Einbinder ended her Emmy acceptance speech with "Free Palestine," she likely never imagined Hamas-affiliated media would enthusiastically share her message—while simultaneously censoring her bare shoulders for "moral purity." The cognitive dissonance is striking: championing a cause without recognizing the fundamental values at stake. Speaking of recognition, Jennifer Lopez's latest platinum blonde transformation has fans doing double-takes, with many mistaking her for Gwen Stefani after what appears to be significant cosmetic work.Meanwhile, Starbucks continues its downward spiral with plummeting sales and customer experiences that fail to meet even basic expectations. Despite CEO promises of improvement, dirty stores and interminable wait times plague the once-dominant coffee chain. My suggestion? Create separate drive-thru lanes for mobile orders—a simple fix that could dramatically improve customer satisfaction. Beyond these observations lies a deeper question about free speech in America: should hate speech laws exist at all? My position is clear—in America, even offensive speech deserves protection under the First Amendment. What's your take? The conversation continues at TheAmericanist.com, where my upcoming article and video will further explore these pressing issues.Buzzsprout - Let's get your podcast launched!Start for FREE Thanks for listening!

What's your vision for how you want to teach yoga? When you close your eyes and dream about how you want to show up in your classes, what do you see? For many yoga teachers, they have a clear vision but their day to day experience doesn't match that vision. In my work with yoga teachers in my program, I get to see what it looks like when a teacher starts teaching in a way that is more in line with how they want to show up. This is the stuff of what I call “Yoga Teacher Transformations.”    In this episode, you'll hear the stories of two yoga teachers and the transformations they experienced as well as get an action plan for how you can start to make your vision come true too.    You'll need the links below that go with this episode:   The Signature Sequence training video:   https://barebonesyoga.lpages.co/how-to-create-a-signature-sequence/   The link to the Yoga Anatomy Accelerator Program:   https://barebonesyoga.thinkific.com/courses/Yoga-Anatomy-Accelerator   The link to the Yoga Anatomy Blueprint Learning Program:   https://barebonesyoga.thinkific.com/courses/blueprint-learning-program   The link to the September book club:   https://barebonesyoga.lpages.co/the-bare-bones-yoga-virtual-book-club/

What happens when we stand at the threshold of transformation, no longer who we once were but not yet who we're becoming? Dr. BethAnne Kapansky Wright guides us through this sacred liminal space, sharing powerful passages from her book "Transformations of the Sun" that illuminate the courage required to embrace change.Key talking points include: • Reading from the poem "In Between" about no longer being the person you used to be while not yet becoming who you're stepping into• Personal story of leaving Alaska for Kauai and the emotional challenge of following soul guidance others couldn't understand• Exploration of "the wild unknown" - that spiritual wilderness where we must learn to trust our internal compass• Discussion of how initial certainty in decision-making often gives way to doubt when transformation becomes uncomfortable• Reflections on how our souls rejoice in the struggle even when our human minds resist change• Importance of having small anchors during change while still surrendering to the deeper processThe true gift of this episode lies in Dr. BethAnn's gentle reminder that transformation necessarily involves discomfort. When we follow a soul calling, we often experience initial certainty that later gives way to doubt and questioning. Yet it's precisely in this grappling that we discover unexpected strengths and access deeper wisdom. As she beautifully expresses through her poem "Submergence," we must allow ourselves to unravel before we can "knit ourselves back into new shapes and hue." The invitation is clear: can we trust our internal compass when external validation fails? Can we surrender to the "river beneath the river" and allow our soul's alchemy to unfold at its own perfect pace? Join Dr. BethAnn in this intimate exploration of what it truly means to trust the process of becoming who we're meant to be.--Your Heart Magic is a space where heart wisdom, spirituality, and psychology meet.

FREE RESOURCE:  Take our QUIZ and see if the SHED METABOLIC RESET PROGRAM is a good fit for you!  In this conversation, Dr. Tara Rawana and Dr. Michelle Peris discuss the intricate relationship between metabolic health, willpower, and the systems necessary for achieving long-term health goals.  They emphasize the limitations of willpower alone and the importance of structured eating, mindset, and community support in fostering sustainable health transformations.  The discussion highlights the significance of emotional awareness and body literacy in overcoming challenges and achieving lasting success in health and wellness.   Takeaways Willpower can only take you so far in health. Building systems is crucial for long-term success. Body weight is not a reliable indicator of health. Community support enhances individual health journeys. Mindset plays a key role in health transformations. Emotional challenges must be addressed for healing. Food choices should align with body needs. Sustainable health requires education and awareness.

Send us a textThe moment Aaron Plush was pulled from his second-grade classroom to test early Macintosh computers, his path in technology was set. This formative experience sparked a journey that would lead him through global program management roles and transformational leadership positions at major corporations like Citrix.Aaron brings a refreshingly authentic approach to the complex world of project management and organizational transformation. His methodology begins with something surprisingly simple yet often overlooked: listening. "There's no bigger mistake any leader can make than implementing change without understanding the organization's landscape," he explains. This people-centric philosophy has become his hallmark in an industry often dominated by technical solutions seeking problems.What makes Aaron's approach particularly powerful is his integrated leadership style that seamlessly blends faith, discipline, and business acumen. When managing high-stakes initiatives, he maintains perspective through methodical execution: "We don't take the entire plate and throw it in our face. We do it bite-sized pieces." This calm, measured approach, combined with radical accountability, has proven effective across Fortune 500 companies and complex technology implementations.His perspective on emerging technologies like AI is equally thoughtful. Rather than focusing on the technology itself, Aaron emphasizes understanding the problem first, then leveraging AI as an enhancement tool. "It's about using technology for the purposes of what you need it for," he advises, encouraging adoption without fear.Perhaps most compelling is Aaron's commitment to developing others. When asked what qualities he looks for in mentees, his answer is striking: "I don't." Anyone expressing a desire to grow receives his support, regardless of their current position or potential. This generosity of spirit extends to his view of success itself—"my journey is about bringing others along with me."Connect with Aaron at www.aaronrplush.com or through his Authentic Realness podcast to learn more about his approach to leadership, technology, and personal development. His story reminds us that even in our increasingly digital world, authentic human connection remains the foundation of meaningful transformation.Thanks for tuning in to this episode of Follow The Brand!
