As a business executive or entrepreneur here’s a question you probably haven’t given much consideration to. Can plot lines, climaxes and messages in movies provide you with valuable lessons about business? Joseph  Lalonde certainly believes so. He’s the author of Reel Leadership. Which  speaks to leaders and movie lovers who want to look at leadership and personal development in a new way. Author Joseph Lalonde wants leaders to enjoy entertainment without feeling guilty.

When he began his own personal development journey, Lalonde discovered how leadership gurus try to dissuade people from enjoying regular forms of entertainment because they see it as a waste of time. He fell in line and believed this lie; that entertainment, especially movies, held no real value. Over time, he realized each movie provides a story with a moral premise or leadership lesson. He joined me this week to tell me more.

Millennials are setting another trend. They’ve earned a reputation for reshaping industries and institutions — shaking up the workplace, transforming dating culture, and rethinking parenthood. They’ve also had a dramatic impact on American religious life. Four in ten millennials now say they are religiously unaffiliated, according to the Pew Research Center. In fact, millennials (those between the ages of 23 and 38) are now almost as likely to say they have no religion as they are to identify as Christian. John Follis created an award-winning documentary "Leaving God" (2017)  which blends an engaging personal story with the major cultural shift currently happening in America -- the shift away from religion and God.
