Nicholas Paulukow welcomes Steve Herr, Ph.D., CEO of coLAB, for a thoughtful conversation about servant leadership, strategic clarity, and the role data can play in helping mission-driven organizations create lasting impact.

Steve shares his journey from social work and clinical leadership into the world of technology, where he has spent more than two decades building software and systems designed to help organizations operate more effectively, measure outcomes, and align purpose with action.

Together, Nicholas and Steve explore what it means to lead with intention, build teams around shared values, and create the kind of structure that turns vision into measurable progress.

Their conversation touches on mentorship, leadership development, the tension between mission and growth, and why the strongest organizations are the ones that combine clear strategy with a deeply rooted commitment to serving others well.
