Every ambitious leader wants growth.
Few have the discipline to sustain it.
For the past decade, I’ve coached leadership teams while obsessing over one question: Which business practices actually move the needle — and which just waste time?
That’s the heart of Simple Leadership — my new newsletter about timeless truths for modern business builders.
Now I’m sharing those insights — because too many good leaders are stuck repeating the same patterns.

Leadership is simple. Courage is the hard part.
Simple Leadership is for anyone who leads people at a growing company. You don't need to be the founder or the CEO. If you have even one…
Every two weeks, a new episode shares an article from the Simple Leadership newsletter. It's written and read by Josh Holtzman. One timeless idea, worked all the way through, in about ten minutes. Made for the drive, the gym, or the walk between meetings.
Josh has spent 25 years building companies and coaching teams. He's founded three companies, made three successful exits, and led more than 1,000 full-day sessions with leadership teams. Different industries. Different people. The same patterns.
What he learned is that leadership can be simple. When it feels complicated, there's usually something underneath that takes courage to face.
If you lead a team, you'll recognize these moments:
The conversation you keep rehearsing and keep putting off.
The week that disappeared into fires your team could have handled.
The project you handed off, then took back.
The vision everyone applauded, while departments still pull in different directions.
The good person who resigned, and you never saw it coming.
The quarter that ended with the same misses as the last one.
Each episode takes a problem like these apart, gets underneath it to the root, and gives you a simple way to act.
No fluff. Real experience, made practical.
