Build It Backwards: Why Great Leaders Start with the End in Mind | Daniel Feiman
What if the best way to build your future is to start with the end in mind?
In this episode of the Notable Men Podcast, host Laura Ezzell sits down with leadership consultant, author, and Build It Backwards founder Daniel Feiman to explore why the most successful organizations don't simply react to change—they intentionally design the future they want and work backwards to achieve it.
Daniel Feiman, MBA, CMC®, is the Founder and Managing Director of Build It Backwards, an internationally recognized consulting and training firm specializing in strategy, finance, leadership development, and succession planning. Over the past three decades, he has consulted organizations in 31 countries, taught leadership and business strategy at the university level, and worked with companies including Apple, Dell, Hilton Hotels, Credit Suisse, Mattel, and many others. He is also the author of four books and creator of the Build It Backwards framework, helping organizations develop stronger leaders and build businesses that thrive for generations.
In this conversation, Daniel shares:
- Why great leaders start with the future they want to create
- The philosophy behind the Build It Backwards framework
- How proper planning creates better leadership and stronger organizations
- The difference between leadership, management, succession, and transition planning
- Why hiring for culture and long-term potential matters more than hiring for technical skills alone
- The leadership lessons Daniel learned from entrepreneurship and business failure
- How to make confident decisions when information is incomplete
- Why mentoring future leaders is one of a leader's greatest responsibilities
- How organizations can develop leadership pipelines instead of constantly replacing talent
- Why character matters more than titles
- The importance of creating value that exceeds client expectations
- How leaders can build organizations that continue succeeding long after they're gone
