In this episode of The Color of Money, Chike Aguh—senior advisor, Fulbright Scholar, and former Chief Innovation Officer at the U.S. Department of Labor—joins us to break down what real leadership looks like in today’s fast-changing world. Chike shares how his immigrant family’s journey, commitment to lifelong learning, and willingness to step up—imperfectly—have shaped his path to national influence.

We explore why leadership always starts with leading yourself, the power of building skills and character over credentials, and why adaptability is the true key to opportunity. Chike offers practical advice on finding proximity to great leaders, building relationships, and remembering that the distance between you and those you admire is often smaller than you think.

Tune in for inspiration, actionable wisdom, and a fresh perspective on growing your impact—wherever you are on your journey.
