  • Change by Design or by Disaster

    All things are impermanent. It’s interesting that ‘impermanence’ is a central tenant of so many religions and philosophies. Nothing lasts. Good times are followed by bad. Bad times are followed by good. Why then aren’t leaders better at anticipating and managing change? Join us as we welcome Beth Thomas, CEO of Change4Growth, a top 10 change management firm with offices in the US and UK. Together, we take a deeper look at the barriers leaders face and the mindset required by those of us who want change by design, not by disaster.

  • Compensation: Three Keys to Success

    Bill Belichick, the winningest coach in NFL history with eight Super Bowl rings (so far), once told a reporter, “We’re not collecting talent, we’re building a team?” The best sales compensation plans are aligned with a company’s goals. Unfortunately, most comp plans reward transactional activities and outcomes that promote individual success and short-term deal-making. They miss the opportunity to reward scalable team-building and long-term growth. Sales is a team sport and your compensation plan can make or break your ability to build the championship team your goals require. Join the conversation. Let us know what you think.

  • Understanding the Position Success Indicator (PSI)

    How can you be the best version of yourself if you don’t really know yourself?

    You could get lucky and allow life’s circumstances to passively guide you to the perfect combination of decisions that bring you to the place you were always meant to be.

    Or you could do the work, learn more about who you are, and set forth a plan to reach and redefine your potential on this planet.

    If you are curious about the latter path, this podcast will help you and each member of your team understand how to get started.

    We begin by sharing our own personal stories and successes. Check it out!

  • Understanding the Identity Fear Quotient (IFQ)

    In previous episodes, you may have heard us talk about how a leader’s identity and potential are shaped by their insecurities or fears. In fact this is true for all human beings and especially meaningful for those of us who are on a journey of continuous improvement. Join us as we dig into the history and science of the IFQ measurement tool and the impact it can have for healthy leaders, scalable teams and growth cultures.

  • Before Hiring Your Next Salesperson

    🎬 “Guns. Lots of guns.”

    You might recognize this line from Keanu Reeves in The Matrix and John Wick—two very different worlds, same high-stakes intensity.

    In both films, the hero faces massive pressure… and his response? More firepower.

    Sound familiar?

    Sales leaders often feel that same pressure—and their gut reaction is similar:

    More reps. More activity. More pipeline.

    But here’s the twist:

    Unlike Keanu’s characters, sales leaders do have another option.

    💡 When sales teams are seen, supported, and optimized as teams (not just a collection of individuals), they can grow revenue 3X faster—without adding a single new rep.

    Sometimes the real power move isn’t more.

    It’s better.

    👉 Maybe it’s time to shift from more headcount to more high performance.

  • Can CRM Help 3X Your Annual Growth Rate?

    📈 What if you could 3X your sales growth—without hiring a single new rep?

    Sounds bold, but companies that implement a reliable, team-wide sales process are doing exactly that.

    So… what’s the catch?

    💸 The hidden cost isn’t headcount—it’s your CRM.

    Most organizations are quietly losing time, traction, and revenue because of how their CRM is set up and used.

    🧨 The good news? Eliminate four common CRM costs, and:

    ✅ Sales leaders gain real control over pipeline and forecasting
    ✅ Reps get clarity, accountability, and better results
    ✅ The entire team earns their way to a well-deserved raise

    This isn’t your typical CRM conversation.

    It’s a wake-up call.

    🎧 Listen in and learn how to make your CRM work for growth—not against it.

  • How to Stop Being Ghosted by Prospects

    🤝 You secured the commitment… but the follow-through never came.

    A meeting was promised.

    A proposal was “going to be reviewed.”
    Someone was “looping in the decision-maker.”
    …And then? Silence. Delays. Excuses.

    If you’ve been in sales, consulting, or leadership for any length of time, you know this story all too well.

    But here’s what might surprise you:

    💡 Most of these stalls, misunderstandings, and broken commitments can be prevented.

    Not with pressure.

    Not with better scripts.
    But with better expectation-setting, communication, and leadership.

    Because the easiest pain to prevent… is the pain we unintentionally cause ourselves.

    Let’s talk about how to avoid the "ghosting gap" and build stronger, follow-through-driven relationships from the start.

    👉 How do you ensure your next steps actually happen?

  • Change Management - Growth is the Mastery of Change

    💡 Change doesn’t happen just because we want it to.

    It happens when people are ready, willing, and able to embrace it.

    That includes your customers—and your team.

    As leaders, we’re not just here to sell ideas or drive initiatives.

    We’re here to guide people through change.

    Whether you're influencing clients or shifting internal strategy, your ability to lead others through uncertainty will define the speed of execution and the scale of success.

    🎯 The key question:

    Are you leading change—or simply reacting to it?

    In our upcoming conversation, we’ll explore how great leaders take control of change, align their teams, and move together with clarity toward growth.

    👉 Join us as we dive into how leadership shapes the path—and pace—of transformation.

  • Mindset - The Root of Limitless Personal and Team Development

    🚀 Growth starts with leadership.

    Scalable, high-performing teams don’t happen by chance—they’re built by healthy leaders who align their habits and behaviors with the goals they set.

    At the core of effective leadership is the ability to develop winning habits, and that comes down to mastering three key disciplines:

    🧠 Mindset

    🛠 Skillset
    🔧 Toolset

    All three matter. But Mindset? That’s where it all begins—and it’s often the most overlooked.

    In our upcoming session, we’ll unpack the Mindset x Skillset x Toolset formula and explore why Mindset is the true multiplier for sustainable growth.

    👉 Ready to lead with intention and build a culture that scales? Join us.

  • Building the Dream Team Series - #4: Exploring the Power of ‘Fit’

    “Work smarter not harder.” An old saying meant to affirm a commitment to seeking awareness and unblocking potential. Unchecked, more effort simply leads to more stress which ultimately creates friction that limits high-performing teams. What if your team was able to achieve the kind of balance that allowed you to do both--work harder and smarter? Join us as we take a look at how this balance can be achieved and who within your organization can help you make it happen.
