#326: How to Lead When Busy, Scaling, or Failing with Matt Lesser
A familiar face on Lanci's other podcast series is here! This discussion with Matt Lesser includes:Lessons from working with leaders on every continentWhat its like growing up in a household of entrepreneursFrom creating business and private equity to finding passion as an entrepreneurIntegrating pillars of leadershipMeet Matt: I grew up in a small, lake community in northeast Indiana. We moved there because my dad had an opportunity to buy into a wholesale oil distributorship.Growing up in a town of 700, living with a family business, and attending a small, Christian school (my graduating class had 7) gave me a very narrow, sheltered view of life. After graduating after my Junior year, I jumped into Indiana University where I quickly realized how sheltered my life had been!Thinking I would pursue a Master's, my career took an unexpected turn. Instead of resigning, which I attempted, my dad left...and turned the business over to me. Thinking I could do anything because I was 25, arrogant, and prideful, I was about to experience reality. Within months, the business failed, and I went through a dark, suicidal depression. Nearly a year later, a new business was born from the ashes, and nearly 12 years later that business was sold. I then spent 12 years in private equity. It was during my years running the family business and in private equity that I grew passionate about leadership--healthy, flourishing leadership. Over the last 25 years, I trained, facilitated, coached, and led leaders, leadership teams, and boards all over the world. I wanted each leader to become the best possible version of themselves so they would do the same for the team members and organizations they led. I picked up training and certifications in nearly 20 leadership, personality, and team-building assessments, and I also picked up an MBA along the way.In 2021, I finally jumped "all in" into my own business, after being told by many whom I had worked with over the years that I needed to do this. Little did they know, I had actually felt a tug on my heart--a calling--to speak, train, and facilitate when I was a teenager.Have a question for a guest or host?

As I grew, I always loved to create arts and crafts, and to this day, I love a good DIY project. I decided I was at a block in my career with what I wanted to do, so like most logical people I jumped on a plane and headed to Bali to figure things out. Well, boom, I was there for 4 months, and while exploring the beautiful island of the gods, I rediscovered my passion for flowers and realized this is what I was meant to do. However, I didn't just want to be a florist; I wanted to teach others how to arrange flowers and bring them the same joy that it brings me. Low and behold, The Roaming Petal was born. Here we are today, bringing floral workshops to people's homes and events, and I couldn't be happier.
