Turning Point Leadership: Recent Episodes
Ron Harvey
Confidence is not the same thing as competence, and chasing more credentials will never close the gap on its own. In this episode of Unpack with Ron Harvey, coach and author Tricia Conyers joins Ron for an honest, vulnerable conversation about why so many accomplished, high-performing women still struggle to see themselves as capable as everyone around them already does, and what actually builds the kind of self-trust that lasts.
Based in Trinidad and Tobago, Tricia Conyers is a professional and personal coach who works with women standing at a crossroads between the life they are living now and the brighter, braver, bolder version of themselves they know they are capable of becoming. Her first book, Confidence Is Action, releases in September on Amazon.
In this conversation, Ron and Tricia unpack:
- Why competence is only one ingredient of confidence, and what the missing pieces really are
- The "negative sum game" women play by dismissing their wins and magnifying their mistakes
- A simple daily practice: naming one thing that went well, then why it was about you
- How reflection, scheduled every 90 days like a meeting, compounds into higher performance
- The wedding-party moment that stripped away Tricia's confidence, and the lesson underneath it
- Why self-trust, not outside validation, sits at the very heart of real confidence
- The "waiting to feel ready" trap, and why confidence only arrives after you take action
- How confidence works like a muscle that anyone can build through repetition and reps
Whether you lead a team, are building something of your own, or keep waiting to feel ready before you begin, this episode delivers practical, day-by-day tools to stop waiting and start acting, plus a leadership lens on how to build confidence in the people you manage and help them step into bigger opportunities.

Scott Proposki went from shooting events at the White House under President Obama to building a multimillion-dollar photography business, then losing all of it during COVID. In this episode of Unpacked with Ron Harvey, Scott walks through the three years he spent in the wreckage, the one question from his coach that pulled him out, and the method he now uses to help business owners find the small changes that move an entire year of revenue.
Ron and Scott get into why trust has become the scarcest asset in business, why most owners keep restarting instead of building momentum, and what it really takes to earn a yes in a market full of noise.
In this episode:
- The trust recession: why buyers have stopped believing claims, and how to earn belief back one step at a time
- Selling the destination instead of the seat on the plane, and what that shift does to your pricing
- Base camp: why climbing the same hill over and over stalls growth, and how to rebuild with the right team first
- The only two reasons people do not buy, and how to solve both
- Moving from victim thinking to ownership after a setback you did not cause
- Why small businesses lose deals on follow-up, not on price
- Being of service instead of selling, and why service closes what pressure cannot
- The unconventional path that got Scott into the White House, and what it teaches about being found
- Why it is not how, it is who, and how to staff around your weaknesses
Scott Proposki is a former National Geographic and White House event photographer, author of Camera Focus, and creator of the Business Focus Method. He works with businesses from six figures to nine figures to identify the one to three percent changes that compound.

Erin Treacy spent years working 80- and 90-hour weeks, telling herself she would slow down next week. Her body ended the argument for her. Standing on the cook line of one of her 1950s-style diners, her right leg went numb. The diagnosis was a slipped disc and compressed discs in her lower back, and she could no longer stand on a concrete floor for twenty minutes, let alone a twelve-hour shift.
In this episode of Unpacked with Ron Harvey, Erin Treacy, a leadership and business coach in West Virginia, unpacks what burnout actually cost her, why closing the business was the smartest decision available, and how she rebuilt a people-first leadership model that includes the leader.
What Ron and Erin cover:
- Why servant leadership falls apart when the leader is left out of "people first"
- The signs her husband and kids named for years before her body forced the issue
- How leaders make themselves the bottleneck while believing they have empowered the team
- The Post-it note challenge that exposes how often you say "I'll just do it myself"
- Why two minutes of teaching today saves roughly ten hours of work next week
- What it takes to close a business when you are wired to compete and hate to lose
- The adult version of a timeout, and why walks, art, and a phone left at home are not indulgences
- The eye of the hurricane problem: staying calm for everyone else while the storm runs inside you
- Why a lesson often has to land hundreds of times before it sticks
- Ron's Daytona pit stop analogy and the military policy that made leave mandatory
- The line that changed how Erin leads: your opinion of me is none of my business
This one is for the leader who has become the answer to every question and the entrepreneur who keeps moving the goalpost. Burnout does not announce itself. It sends warnings, and most high performers are moving too fast to read them.

In this episode of Unpacked with Ron Harvey, host Ron Harvey sits down with Luke Mickelson, the Idaho farm kid who turned a single homemade bunk bed into Sleep in Heavenly Peace, now the largest bed-building charity in the world. What began in Luke's garage in 2012 has grown into a national movement fighting child bedlessness, and along the way Luke discovered a challenge that quietly derails many founders and leaders: founder syndrome.
Together, Ron and Luke unpack what happens when your identity fuses with the thing you built, why the hardest part of leadership is often letting go, and how leaders can empower their people to take real ownership. Whether you run a company, lead a nonprofit, manage a project, or are raising a family, this conversation offers a framework for growing beyond yourself without losing yourself.
In this episode:
- The garage project that became a global charity, and the moment that sparked it all
- What founder syndrome really is, and its stages: identity fusion, relevance wounds, and the monster
- Why "pause before you protect" is the discipline every leader needs when they feel cut out
- How to give employees genuine ownership so passion, not just a paycheck, drives their work
- Why the sweatiest, dustiest volunteer is the happiest, and what that teaches about engagement
- The freedom in asking for help and letting go of "fake it till you make it"
- Ron's reframe for the stories we tell ourselves: "based on what?"
- How letting go, like Bezos with Amazon, lets a vision grow far beyond what control ever could
Luke Mickelson is the founder of Sleep in Heavenly Peace (shpbeds.org) and creator of the Founder Syndrome Survival Course. Learn more and take his founder syndrome assessment at LukeMickelson.com, or email Luke@LukeMickelson.com. Find him on social media as Luke Mickelson or SHP Luke.
Host Ron Harvey is Vice President and COO of Global Core Strategies and Consulting, where he helps organizations develop leaders who take care of their people.

On this episode of Unpacked with Ron Harvey, behavioral scientist and serial entrepreneur Curtis Sprouse joins Ron for a candid conversation about why most leadership development fails and what it actually takes to build teams that perform without burning out. Drawing on a behavioral data set of more than 4,500 people and decades inside the biopharma, device, and healthcare industries, Curtis unpacks the difference between teams that hit their numbers and teams that can sustain success over time.
Curtis is the founder of a behavioral science practice, leads the nonprofit Institute for Biomedical Entrepreneurship, and has had a hand in founding dozens of companies. In this discussion, he and Ron explore what separates high-performing teams from high-functioning ones, and why teaching people how to think beats managing them every time.
In this episode, you will learn:
- Why we don't actually train leaders, and the hidden cost of promoting people and hoping they figure it out
- The real difference between high-performing and high-functioning teams, and why only one is sustainable
- How trust is built and rebuilt, using Ron's subway-and-wallet test you won't forget
- A simple framework for human connection in an AI-driven world: experiential exchanges and engagement
- Why critical thinking is the most valuable skill in a five-generation workforce
- The behavioral mechanisms of action that explain why colleagues struggle to work together
- Curtis's "Rs" of leadership: responsibility, reality, relationships, relevance, and doing the right thing
- Why the best-performing teams are often the ones who most need outside eyes
Whether you are a first-time leader or a seasoned executive, this conversation will challenge how you think about trust, talent, and the human side of building a business.

When disaster strikes, what separates the leaders who rise from the ones who freeze? In this episode of Unpacked with Ron Harvey, crisis management expert Keith Erwood draws on decades on the front lines of emergencies, from his years as a New York City EMT to advising organizations on business continuity and disaster recovery. Keith makes a sharp case that the plan itself is never the real test of leadership under pressure. The decisions a leader makes in the moment are. He and Ron unpack how any organization can build that capability long before a crisis ever arrives, and why waiting for perfect information is often the costliest mistake of all.
In this conversation, you will learn:
- Why the people who rise in a crisis often are not the ones you would expect
- The trait Keith consistently sees in leaders who stay clear and calm under pressure
- How crisis leadership can actually be trained through scenarios, tabletop exercises, and muscle memory
- A real pandemic-era example showing how one delayed decision triggered a cascade of new problems
- Why your business continuity plan is a "toolbox" and your strategies are the tools inside it
- What should happen in the first sixty minutes of any crisis, from activating the team to mitigating damage
- The role trust, clear communication, and the courage to course-correct play when everything is on the line
- A simple habit any team can adopt to stay crisis-ready in just a few minutes a week
Whether you lead a large enterprise or a small team, this episode is a practical, no-nonsense guide to making better decisions when time is your biggest enemy and the information in front of you is incomplete.

What does it really take to build a business that outlasts you? In this episode of Unpacked with Ron Harvey, host Ron Harvey sits down with Ty Givens, MBA, a customer experience consultant, operator, and founder with 26 years in the CX space. Ty pulls the curtain back on the unglamorous realities of entrepreneurship and the mindset shifts that kept her in the game when quitting felt like the easier option.
From getting stiffed by her first non-paying client to building the systems that freed her from being her company's only source of truth, Ty offers honest, practical lessons for entrepreneurs, support leaders, and anyone navigating growth without a roadmap. She and Ron trade hard-won wisdom on resilience, discipline, and why the success stories you see online rarely tell the whole story.
In this conversation, you'll learn:
- Why launching a website doesn't make the phone ring, and what actually drives client decisions
- The mindset shift that turned "I quit" into "quitting is not an option"
- How Ty escaped the solopreneur trap by building processes, GPTs, and a team she trusts
- Why she hires for integrity and critical thinking above raw skill, and back-channels every reference
- How "coopetition" beats competition in a market big enough for everyone
- The truth about goal-setting when your real metric is outperforming yourself
- Why she productized her services and got selective about the clients she takes on
- A first look at Reality Check, her new app built from 24 CX playbooks for support leaders
Whether you're on the fence about going out on your own or scaling a team you can finally step away from, this episode delivers the kind of real talk social media never shows. As Ty puts it: you can do difficult things.

We talk with Hanna Hasl-Kelchner about why fairness at work is a leadership issue that shapes trust, health, and performance. We break down the hidden “unwritten rules” that drag down engagement and share practical ways leaders can build a fairer culture without treating work like a transaction.
• fairness as a social contract that drives results
• why power shifts can make good leaders less curious
• the hidden costs of unfairness: productivity loss, stress, sick days, turnover, lost customer relationships
• fairness as the foundation of trust, not a wish list
• five unwritten-rule categories: approachability, recognition, bias, conflict management, workload management
• how meetings reveal culture through airtime, credit, and interruptions
• three practices to start now: stronger conflict management, better communication, better listening

In this episode of Unpacked with Ron Harvey, Ron sits down with Sebastian Page, money manager, marathon runner, and author of The Psychology of Leadership, for a candid conversation about what actually separates good leaders from great ones. After 25 years in finance and after publishing scientific research in quantitative finance, Sebastian turned his attention to a different kind of question: why do high performers stress about stressing, and what can sports psychology teach us about leading under pressure? The answers challenge nearly everything popular culture tells us about leadership.
Key topics and takeaways from this episode:
- Why the "perfect leader" stereotype is often the opposite of what works at the top level
- The difference between ego-driven and mastery-driven performance, and the handball story that explains it

What does it take to walk away from a stable, high-paying career and bet everything on yourself? In this episode of Unpacked, host Ron Harvey sits down with Giuseppe Grammatico, franchise consultant, author, and host of the Franchise Freedom podcast, to unpack the real story behind leaving Wall Street to become a business owner. Just three days after launching his first business, Giuseppe found out he was about to become a father, and what followed was a masterclass in resilience, transparency, and controlling what you can control.
Giuseppe shares the practical mindset and operational decisions that helped him survive the 2008 downturn, build a profitable business, and avoid the traps that derail most aspiring entrepreneurs. From having honest financial conversations with his spouse to sharing P&L statements with his team, his approach to leadership is built on trust, preparation, and clarity of purpose.
In this conversation, Ron and Giuseppe dive into:
- Why Giuseppe left a lucrative Wall Street career and what finally pushed him to "hire himself"
- How to prepare financially and emotionally before quitting your W-2 job
- The role of transparency in marriage, leadership, and team building
- How to lead a small business through economic downturns by pivoting your customer focus
- Why AI is a tool to embrace, not fear, and how leaders can prepare their teams for change
- The difference between revenue growth and profitable growth that most owners miss
- Why your "why" matters more than your business plan when times get hard
- The five freedoms every entrepreneur should pursue, especially time freedom
- Why hiring experts sooner saves more than it costs
- How to avoid the "misery loves company" trap in entrepreneurship
Whether you are a corporate professional considering a leap, a small business owner navigating uncertainty, or a leader trying to build trust with your team, this episode delivers practical wisdom from someone who has lived it.

What if the reason your strategy keeps failing has nothing to do with the strategy itself? On this episode of Unpacked with Ron Harvey, Ron sits down with Brooke Dukes, CEO and founder of BMB Consulting, international bestselling author, and a leader with over 24 years of experience in behavioral science, neuroscience, and human design. Brooke has worked with billion-dollar companies, fortune 500 executives, and small businesses alike, and she brings a refreshingly honest perspective on why most leadership challenges are not strategy problems at all.
In a wide-ranging conversation, Brooke breaks down how limiting beliefs sabotage the best-laid plans, why most leaders are the bottleneck inside their own organizations, and how slowing down is the counterintuitive key to scaling results. She also shares the deeply personal story behind her departure from corporate America at 34 — a wake-up call that reshaped her entire approach to leadership, success, and fulfillment.
In this episode, Ron and Brooke unpack:
- Why strategy alone never solves the real problem, and the foundational beliefs that quietly undermine every initiative
- How the best leaders spend 80 percent of their time working on the business and only 20 percent in it
- The cost of being the bottleneck and why control-driven leadership stalls growth
- How human design, behavioral science, and neuroscience work together to reveal a leader's energetic blueprint
- The GRACE communication model and the four core human needs every interaction is built around
- How to move teams from limiting beliefs to consistent results through small, repeatable habits
- Why burnout and disconnection from purpose are signs you have overridden your own internal guidance
- Common signals it is time to call in outside help, from retention struggles to leadership styles that no longer land
Brooke also shares details on Success by Design, her membership community built to make high-level coaching accessible far beyond the executive suite.

Ron Harvey sits down with Kenneth Givens II, Senior Project Manager at Miller Valentine Construction and published author, for a candid conversation about the leadership habits that separate good managers from truly great ones. Kenneth shares the moment he realized he was building robots instead of leaders — and the mindset shift that changed everything.
Key topics and takeaways from this episode:
- Why stepping in to save the day is actually holding your team back — and what to do instead
- The "fourth quarter coach" principle: understanding why a coach never takes the field during a game-winning drive
- How Kenneth intentionally removed himself from a high-stakes proposal to force his team to rise to the occasion — and what happened
- The power of asking for permission before giving feedback and why it changes how people receive it
- Why debriefs should be led by the person receiving feedback, not the leader delivering it
- Focusing on input over outcome: how Kenneth evaluates decisions based on the thinking behind them, not just the result
- Bringing younger generations into leadership without waiting for a title to justify it
- Why the fastest path to the top is bringing people with you — not climbing alone
- The importance of sincere apology and how one poor emotional reaction can require seven positive interactions to overcome
- How to manage conflict in the workplace while leaving people's dignity intact
- Navigating social media as a leader: being the same person online that you are in person
- Kenneth's 90-day leadership commitment: daring to be curious rather than judgmental
Kenneth Givens II is a Senior Project Manager at Miller Valentine Construction based in Columbia, South Carolina. He is also a contributing author to the fantasy anthology Fires of Retribution, available on Amazon.

In this episode of Unpacked with Ron Harvey, Ron sits down with George Pesansky, author of Super Performance and president of My Blended Learning, a consulting firm he's led for 17 years. George brings a rare blend of military service, corporate leadership, and entrepreneurship to a conversation that challenges everything most organizations believe about performance, feedback, and growth.
Here's what Ron and George unpack in this episode:
- The "golden hour" framework — how to identify and replicate the root causes of your success, not just your failures, and why most leaders only ever do half the equation
- What "utility" really means — and why your ability to create value is a more reliable foundation for business security than any individual client win or loss
- The prison of expectations — why high-performing teams often hold back their best work, and how leaders can build cultures where full effort is safe, even when it doesn't end in a touchdown
- Strengths over gaps — why pouring resources into a 4-out-of-5 skill to make it a 5 is often the wrong investment, and how to organize teams around contribution instead of correction
- The entrepreneurship mindset shift — how George discovered that running your own business creates more security than corporate dependence, and what losing clients taught him about resilience
- Feedback that sustains, not just improves — George's principle that "you cannot sustain what you can't explain," and why asking for three things to keep matters just as much as three things to fix
Whether you're leading a factory floor, a consulting firm, or your own entrepreneurial journey, this episode delivers a practical framework for unlocking the performance that's already inside your team and yourself.
Super Performance by George Pesansky is available now on Amazon and at bookstores everywhere. Connect with George at georgetheauthor.com, myblendedlearning.com, or on LinkedIn, Facebook, and Instagram.

Natasha Kehimkar, CEO and founder of Malida Advisors, joins Ron Harvey to challenge common leadership assumptions and share what actually moves organizations forward. In this episode:
- The 5-year plan myth: The real strategic horizon has always been 18–24 months — organizations just never fully committed to five years. Vision and mission provide stability; strategy must stay nimble.
- Leaders are freezing under complexity: Overwhelm from AI, geopolitical shifts, and constant change is causing leaders to disengage when they need to be building the muscles to look around corners.
- Vision, mission & values as a trust reset: When trust breaks down between leaders and teams, revisiting VMV with real employee input can reignite engagement, ownership, and even viral advocacy for the organization.
- Conflict is productive — avoidance isn't: When conflict goes underground, things eventually explode. Psychological safety doesn't mean always being nice — it means being honest with care and focusing on shared interests.
- The Kolbe Assessment: Unlike skills or style tools, Kolbe taps into the instinctive, unspoken way people approach challenges — the dimension that truly explains diversity of thought on a team.
- Stop painting generations with the same brush: Use assessments to open real conversations instead of making assumptions based on generational labels.
- Transition coaching is non-negotiable: For any leader stepping into a bigger role, a transition coach helps you ramp up faster, navigate the unspoken dynamics, and lead through the team — not as a solo act. Build it into your offer letter.
- Curiosity is the magic key: In a world of constant change, staying genuinely curious about people, challenges, and the environment is what separates leaders who grow from those who stagnate.

We talk with retired superintendent JR Green about turning a “graveyard for superintendents” into a destination district by putting culture, courage, and accountability first. We unpack faith over fear, family support, collaboration over competition, and the difference between authority and leadership.
• JR Green’s path from assistant superintendent to 12-year superintendent tenure
• Why “scared money can’t win” and how courage drives change
• Culture as the soil: competence, collaboration, trust, respect
• Showing up in schools to build relationships and trust
• Humility, presence and removing ego from leadership
• Family commitment and season-based support at home
• Owning the mirror and taking responsibility for outcomes
• Collaboration over competition with neighboring districts
• Leader vs authority and how influence beats titles
This conversation is a powerful reminder that authority can force compliance, but leadership earns followership—even without a title. JR’s story challenges us to choose courage over comfort, collaboration over competition, and humility over ego.
If you’re leading through resistance, navigating a tough team, or trying to rebuild trust in a skeptical culture, you now have a clear framework to act on today: show up consistently, build trust intentionally, own outcomes, and lead with conviction.
If you enjoyed this episode, be sure to follow Unpack Leadership, share it with a colleague who needs it, and leave us a review. Tell us—what’s the one culture shift you’re committing to make this week?
Until next time, keep unpacking what leadership really requires.

In this episode, Ron talks with entrepreneur and Vistage chair Jim Bramlett about the mindset shifts modern leaders need—moving from command-and-control to coaching, embracing vulnerability, and leaning on peer support instead of leading alone.

They also explore key ideas from Jim’s book Stop the Hassle, revealing how companies win by delivering convenience, transparent pricing, great user experience, and trust while removing friction the way Amazon, Netflix, and Uber do. The conversation closes with practical guidance on staying curious about AI, borrowing ideas from peers, and starting small to create compounding improvements.

• shifting from authority to a coaching mindset
• listening more to build trust and buy-in

Ron Harvey explores leadership principles with Joe Davis, a 37-year BCG veteran who shares insights on authentic leadership and balancing career with family life. Together they unpack how leaders can build stronger teams by showing genuine care while maintaining accountability.
• Leaders work for their people, not the other way around
• Never save feedback for performance reviews – deliver it in the moment
• Showing you care gives you permission to be direct and challenging
• The most effective leaders are comfortable saying "I don't know"
• Create family traditions and prioritize important events to balance work/life
• Ask questions and listen genuinely to navigate generational differences

Leadership consultant Dr. Cornelia Shipley Bearyman shares how bringing humanity to work creates competitive advantage for businesses and why innovation happens at the intersection of differing viewpoints. She reveals why understanding that leadership is fundamentally about "bringing the weather" transforms organizational culture and performance.

Leadership is a privilege that requires serving those you lead through collaboration and distributed responsibility, not command and control.
• Leaders must transition from technical expertise to leadership by building a professional leadership library, hiring a coach, and accepting their new role
• The first 90 days in a leadership position are critical: you have 30-60 days before people start evaluating your leadership capabilities
• Regular check-ins with team members should discuss current projects, professional development, and self-care
• Leaders must hire the right people, empower them, and maintain accountability through consistent feedback
• Mentorship is crucial: seek mentors both within and outside your field, and be prepared with specific questions
• Confidence based in knowledge and humility is the "secret sauce" of leadership
• The three C's of leadership success: character, courage, and connections
• Your social media presence reflects your character and is not separate from your professional life
• Build connections by helping others first, not by asking for help

• James shares his aviation journey inspired by his grandfather's World War II flying experience

Digital overwhelm is a modern leadership challenge requiring new approaches to maintain human connection and workplace wellbeing. Communication professor Dr. Craig Mattson explains how the intersection of rapid technological development and our emotional responses creates a state of digital overwhelm that affects productivity and engagement.
• Digital overwhelm combines surface currents of rapid technological change with upwelling emotional responses
• Multitasking is a myth—our attention diffuses quickly when attempting multiple tasks
• Communication flexibility is essential in digital spaces, allowing adaptability across different platforms
• "Mode switching" helps us move between different communication approaches based on needs
• Creating intentional device-free spaces can significantly improve human connection and engagement
• Only 31% of workers currently feel engaged in their work, suggesting a broader crisis
• Three strategies for managing digital overwhelm: name it openly, treat communication as a gift, and embrace single-use technologies
• Technological development often happens without democratic input, creating worker equity issues

Leadership consultant Ali Stewart shares her decades of wisdom about what makes leaders truly effective, revealing that while challenges like pandemics and AI may evolve, the core elements of great leadership remain surprisingly consistent.
• Leaders need both high challenge and high support to get commitment and high achievement from their teams
• Effective leaders are visible with a consistent, authentic personal style that builds trust
• Ground rules must establish clear rights and responsibilities for both leaders and team members
• The leadership process progresses through visioning, mobilizing, developing, and enabling stages
• Feedback should be a daily practice that is specific and conditional
• Being explicit about what behaviors demonstrate success is critical for effective leadership
• The best leaders adapt their communication style to meet different team members' needs
• Having a mentor significantly accelerates leadership development
Pay it forward by not only finding a mentor who's ahead of where you want to be, but also by mentoring someone who's where you once started. Your experience is invaluable to others on their leadership journey.

Ron Harvey and entrepreneur Alykhan Jetha (AJ) explore how business growth directly correlates with personal development, making leadership the fundamental driver of organizational success.
• Creating sustainable business growth requires continuous personal development and critical self-awareness
• Avoiding difficult conversations creates cascading negative effects throughout organizations
• Having the right people for different business stages is a continual process, not a one-time effort
• Critical thinking remains uniquely human even as AI tools become more prevalent
• Looking at business as a whole system helps leaders avoid getting trapped in comfort zones
• Work-life integration is more realistic than balance, with time allocation changing through different life chapters
• Time is an unrenewable resource requiring thoughtful distribution across business and personal priorities
• Finding mentors who believe in your vision is crucial, though sometimes books and other resources can fill this role
• Business systems should evolve to accommodate your life priorities rather than consuming all your time

Lior Arussy shares why leadership is no longer about being the invincible authority with all the answers, but about embracing vulnerability and taking action when you don't know what the right thing to do is. This fundamental shift transforms how we connect with teams, build trust, and foster genuine engagement.
• Vulnerability in leadership means strategically sharing stories that activate others to join your journey
• Employee engagement comes from understanding impact and having the tools/authority to get work done
• "Response-able" is giving people both the responsibility and the ability to respond
• Command and control leadership is dead – exceptional performance comes from personal choice
• Stories, not data, drive people to action and inspire meaningful change
• The "gratitude denial syndrome" robs leaders of insights about their superpowers
• Organizations must choose: are they processes operated by people or people using processes?
• Three key challenges: AI changing customer relationships, developing leaders in hybrid settings, and delivering "one and only" experiences
• Choose customers carefully – wrong customers consume resources needed for the right ones
Check out Lior's new book "Dare to Author" which helps leaders convert past experiences into future resilience and tools to face uncertainty.

Welcome back to Unpacked with Ron Harvey. In this episode, Dr. Aaron Bishop shares his experiences as a leader. He explains that leaders should focus on service and humility, as demonstrated by his parents, who were grassroots leaders in their community. Bishop emphasizes that leaders should prioritize the needs of others, even if it means sacrificing personal gain. He also stresses the importance of surrounding oneself with positive influences, such as his mother and wife, who have played crucial roles in his leadership journey.
Bishop further advises that leaders should recognize their strengths and weaknesses and learn to classify their responsibilities, likening life to a waffle with separate compartments for different aspects. He emphasizes the importance of integrity and maintaining boundaries in personal and professional relationships.
Lastly, Bishop encourages individuals to heed their callings, trust their instincts, and remain obedient to their vision, no matter their obstacles.

And there are 10,000 books out there about leadership. I've even.

So I'm excited to have our guest today, an excellent friend who's introduced me to Boars and introduced me to people and just been super supportive, especially when George Floyd hit in the conversation that he and I could have.
