Folkes Unfettered| Commentary That Cuts

We started this series to answer the most pressing leadership questions small and mid-sized leaders were trying to address, we wanted to bring our discussions on solutions to integrate and improve leadership development programs and strategic planning initiatives to address the multigenerational phenomenon companies are currently facing, So, I decided to ask some of the brightest minds in leadership to provide their experience and insight on leadership and our guest represent leaders like Private Equity Investor Steve Beaman, up and coming leader Ethan Wyss, and author of the best-selling book Investing Between the Lines, and Forbes.com leadership blogger, Laura Rittenhouse. These are just a few of the leaders we have scheduled and we have many more scheduled. It doesn't matter if you're a baby boomer, GenX, or Millenial, we all can benefit from the wisdom of leaders from all walks of life, join us on this journey to refresh or refine your approach to organizational leadership. 

This is an invitational promo to join us for our upcoming Leadership series entitled 'The Alchemy of Leadership' 

Throughout this series, we interview/discuss with experienced and up-and-coming leaders who recognize that people are at the heart of leadership, because of their unique talents, and abilities, and they are mining the gold of wisdom in groups and individuals, capturing creative brilliance, in order to produce extraordinary results.

This is an opportunity for our listeners to learn from those leaders/alchemists that are integrating their craft, skill, and imagination to taking the process of taking leadership development from ordinary and turning it into something extraordinary, 

In this episode, Gene Folkes sits down with Actor, Model, Producer, and former NBA player Kenyon Glover to discuss Mr. Glover's journey in battling depression, overcoming four suicide attempts, the challenges of maintaining mental health due to a tumultuous childhood, and how systemic and institutional factors fail to address the mental health concerns of black men and men in general in this country.  For anyone who has ever struggled with mental health issues, this is a must-listen episode.
