| Results Are Not Enough: Leading with Integrity and Trust (with Keith Wyche) | 06 nov. 2026 | 00:56:05 | |
A teenage grandson, watching a night of news about fallen executives, a disgraced pastor and a convicted politician, turned to his grandfather and asked whether he led that way. That question became Keith Wyche's new book. He tells us why results without people never last, how a set of golf clubs left beside his car tested his integrity, how he helped Walmart associates see themselves in the move to e-commerce, and how a mini stroke taught him to serve from a full cup. Keith R. Wyche is a corporate executive, board director, author and keynote speaker. He started out at IBM and AT&T, ran U.S. operations for a division of the mailing and shipping company Pitney Bowes, and was then recruited by the grocery company Supervalu to lead two of its chains, first as president of Cub Foods and later of Acme Markets. In 2015 he joined Walmart, where he helped lead its e-commerce transformation until he retired in 2024. He sits on the board of Brink's, the security and cash management company, and his latest book is Uncommon Leadership: A Blueprint for Restoring Integrity, Trust, and People-Centered Leadership.

| Everybody Matters: The Extraordinary Power of Caring for Your People Like a Family (Remembering Bob Chapman) | 30 oct. 2026 | 00:57:22 | |
In remembrance of Bob Chapman, and to honor his legacy, we are sharing our conversation with him again. Bob led Barry-Wehmiller for fifty years. He took over the struggling St. Louis supplier of brewing equipment in 1975, after his father's death, and grew it into a global business of about 12,000 team members spanning industrial and packaging automation, professional services and life sciences technology. Around 2000, a series of realizations moved him from traditional management to what he called truly human leadership, the subject of Everybody Matters: The Extraordinary Power of Caring for Your People Like Family, the Wall Street Journal bestseller he wrote with Raj Sisodia, revised and expanded for its tenth anniversary in 2025. With his wife, Cynthia, he founded the Chapman Foundation for Caring Communities, which brings listening training to communities.

| Coaching Strategies for Turbulent Times (with Dr. Cathy Greenberg and Dr. Relly Nadler) | 23 oct. 2026 | 00:57:22 | |
Under constant stress, most of us run on autopilot, and on autopilot even capable leaders slide toward average. The thoughts that do the most harm are the ones that never leave our heads, where fear, worst-case thinking and self-doubt drain the energy we need to think clearly, stay curious and connect with others. Getting those thoughts out into the open, with a coach, a therapist or a good friend, is often where change begins. In this episode, without a guest, we share the coaching tools we use most in turbulent times. FIEND, for thoughts that stay fearful, irrational, exaggerated, negative and dark, becomes GLITTER once those thoughts are on the table: goal-focused, in the light, insightful, transactional, transformational, empowering and realistic. VIVID gives leaders and their teams a shared language for what someone needs from a conversation, whether to vent, share information, seek validation, ideate or get direction, so a leader stops handing out direction nobody asked for. Along the way, we look at how rarely we are as self-aware as we believe, how power can mute empathy, what coaching returns to an organization, and why a fresh bottle of water can open a hard conversation.

| The Unreliable Narrator: Why Leaders Can't See Their Own Story (with Federico Malatesta) | 16 oct. 2026 | 00:44:46 | |
Many accomplished leaders reach a point where success stops meaning anything. The stories leaders live by were useful once, but they run their course, and no protocol, framework, or morning routine can fix one that has stopped working. In a time when a chatbot tends to agree with everything we say, the way forward is to welcome a different view, make the best decision we can without certainty, and take responsibility for it. Federico Malatesta is the founder of FM Transformational Coaching and the author of They Are Lying to You: The Self-Help Delusion. He grew up in Rome and spent fifteen years in global energy, rising to chief investment officer, or CIO, of a $40 billion portfolio, before leaving to study why success stops meaning anything. He now coaches senior executives from a working horse ranch in Texas, drawing on narrative theory, neuroscience, and contemporary psychoanalytic thought. He writes regularly on identity, leadership transitions, and narrative collapse, and his newsletter is Almost Everything Is Context. Chapters:

| Serving, Not Selling: How Love and Kindness Built the Apple Store (with Ron Johnson) | 09 oct. 2026 | 00:50:34 | |
Many leaders believe work leaves no time for love or kindness, only for results. Yet the Apple Store became one of the most respected retailers in the world by serving people rather than selling to them, earning customers one at a time. In an age of AI, when common answers are a quick query away, the edge belongs to leaders who slow down and listen to their own inner voice. Ron Johnson is the creator of the Apple Store, a sought-after speaker and board member, and the author, with Zander Nethercutt, of Shop Different: How Retail Revealed Apple's Genius. A Stanford alumnus and Harvard Business School graduate, he was a merchant leader at Target, where his collaboration with architect Michael Graves brought good design to everyday shoppers. Steve Jobs hired him in 2000 to create Apple's stores, which he built on a service philosophy rooted in love and kindness, values he traces to growing up outside Minneapolis. He later served as CEO of JCPenney and founded Enjoy, the first mobile retail store. Chapters:

| The Emotional Intelligence of Insecurity: How Hidden Fears Shape Leadership Behavior (with Tyler Dickerhoof) | 14 sept. 2026 | 00:57:47 | |
Every leader carries fears and insecurities they've learned to hide. Over time, those hidden struggles build invisible walls—walls that shape how we lead, how we relate, and how others experience us. What we think are strengths are often just sophisticated defense mechanisms. Tyler Dickerhoof is a leadership mentor, entrepreneur, host of the Impact Driven Leader community, and USA Today best-selling author of The Things We Hide. With 25-plus years of experience and more than $750 million in business sales generated, he knows the real pressures leaders carry. A Cornell graduate, Tyler once measured his worth by achievement, often at the cost of relationships. Through personal growth and entrepreneurship, he faced the hidden insecurities driving his leadership. Now he helps leaders slow down, face what's really driving them, and lead with greater authenticity, clarity, and impact. | |||
| Mastering your Emotions: Emotional Brilliance (with Dr. Cathy Greenberg and Dr. Relly Nadler) | 07 sept. 2026 | 00:54:50 | |
Today we have more intense emotions and a sense of overwhelm, causing all of us stress. Leaders are dealing with so much more than they have in the past. A study on stress in America tells us that 47% of people are experiencing Anxiety, 44% are sad, 39% are angry, while 75% of us feel we could use more emotional support. For much of that support, they are turning to their leaders, who now need more counseling and coaching skills. What are they and we to do with this abundance of emotions and feelings? Drs. Greenberg and Nadler will take a deeper look at how you manage these feelings. In our Emotional Brilliance book, we presented a model of dealing with them called NAME. Notice and Name, Accept, Manage, and Express. We will look at the M for Manage: managing your thoughts and actions, which will help regulate these feelings. What is causing the most stress today, according to a recent American Psychological Association study, is: Inflation (e.g., gas prices, energy bills, grocery costs): 87% Supply chain issues: 81% Global uncertainty: 81% Potential retaliation from Russia (e.g., cyberattacks, nuclear threats): 80% Russian invasion of Ukraine: 80% For more leadership tools and information on Dr. Relly Nadler go to https://drrellynadler.com | |||

| The Leadership Velocity Crisis: Why Great Leaders Become the Bottleneck and How to Scale Beyond It (with Rajesh Nagjee) | 20 juil. 2026 | 00:56:05 | |
Most CEOs don't realize they've become the bottleneck inside their own success, and Rajesh Nagjee lived that story himself before he solved it. He is a CEO mentor, creator of CEO Freedom OS™, and a trusted advisor endorsed by Dr. Marshall Goldsmith and Dr. Ivan Misner. For 30 years, he has helped 350+ CEOs running $5M to $25M companies move from chief problem solver to strategic leader, without losing control of what they built. Rajesh Nagjee built his first company, burned out running it, and nearly lost everything. That breaking point became the foundation for everything he teaches today. Now a CEO mentor and business physicist, Rajesh helps scale-stage founder-CEOs escape the Founder Bottleneck: when a company grows sophisticated enough to scale yet still depends on the founder for decisions and operational stability. He calls this underlying dynamic the Velocity Crisis, when systems evolve faster than the founder's internal operating capacity. To solve this, Rajesh created CEO Freedom OS™, a leadership architecture that removes structural founder dependency without sacrificing control. The framework installs four systems: Command Center OS, Delegation OS, Client Magnet OS, and Personal Brand OS. Over 30 years, Rajesh has mentored 350+ CEOs across 15 countries, including leaders at Amex KSA, Nielsen MEA, and BNI Middle East, helping them build companies that scale beyond the founder.

Brands has trained over 250,000 managers throughout her career.

The Manager Method helps readers to lead effectively, build trust, and grow their careers without sacrificing their well-being.

The Manager Method fills this gap, and provides managers at any level with practical, real-world strategies to help them lead with clarity, confidence, and impact—without burning out. This book simplifies leadership into an actionable process that helps managers make better decisions, set expectations, and build high-performing teams. Unlike theory-heavy leadership books, The Manager Method is designed for busy professionals who need answers now and delivers the step-by-step techniques to make that happen now. Ashley Herd is a former Chief People Officer and General Counsel, leadership speaker, and podcast host who has trained over 250,000 managers through LinkedIn Learning and live corporate trainings.

| The Workplace: Expanding Your Influence (with Jesse Hernandez Jr) | 16 févr. 2026 | 00:53:53 | |
Jesus D. "Jesse" Hernandez Jr is the Founder of Depth Builder LLC, who helps leaders deepen their communication skills and build trust through their improvement initiatives. Jesse does this by shining a light on their blind spots, and teaching them how to adjust their leadership approach to ensure "buy in" amongst their employees. Experiencing construction business problems from the perspective of an installer, a field leader, a trade contractor, a General Contractor and an owner's Rep has helped Jesse understand that we are more alike than we are different. Being a witness to people discovering their agency and leaders contributing to that is what brings him fulfillment. His path in the professional space and 7+ years of sobriety has helped Jesse meet people where they are at and get them unstuck. The key is in serving others and helping folks leverage their influence and formal authority in making the work better for the men and women who are doing the work. Jesse's 5S in Relationships Livestream Experiment revealed to him that there is a gap in connection amongst construction professionals. This led him to co-author the book Lean & Love 5S Love Letters and co-host The NoBS with Jen and Jess Podcast, where he is having imperfect conversations about the human side of work. These efforts helped Jesse appreciate the power of vulnerability. Jesse has also written Becoming the Promise You are Intended to Be where readers can find glimpses of themselves in the stories he shares and discover the path to living up to the promise they are Intended to fulfill. Seeing the impact these works are having have lit a fire in Jesse to help people practice vulnerability and deepen their connection with the folks they spend the most time with. Jesse wants to serve our listeners with the idea that focusing on the person in front of us is the best way to Expand their Influence. The key to this is listening and more specifically asking interested questions. He wants to introduce the listeners two a couple of cheat codes (air time & first response) that they can put into practice immediately.
