What if the most powerful business strategy has nothing to do with strategy at all?
In this episode, Aimee Rickabus talks with Scott MacGregor — founder of The Outlier Project, publisher of Outlier Magazine, and 4x author — about why intentional relationship building is the one skill AI will never replace.
Scott shares:
- His "extra inch" philosophy that turns 5 seconds of effort into massive impact
- Why he ditched networking for friendship building (and what changed)
- How he uses his phone contacts as a personal CRM to remember what matters
- The Warren Buffett approach to relationships: slow, steady, outsized returns
- Why he's capping his community at 1,100 members — "scale can steal the soul"
Whether you're an entrepreneur feeling stuck in transactional relationships or a leader wanting to build deeper connections, this conversation will shift how you think about success, trust, and what people actually remember about you.
