Why The Learning Leader Podcast Began

- The show became a tool to improve his communication, interviewing, and to access high-profile guests like Simon Sinek.
Balance Boldness With Humble Curiosity

Make Execution Disciplined And Visible

- Measure lead activities, show a public scorecard, and create a cadence of accountability to drive execution.
