Do you know how companies make money with your business and personal data? What if you could connect your data with non-competitors for mutual gain?
The online world is overflowing with opportunity… and high risks that can take your company down if you’re sloppy with your data. But then again, there’s a lot to be gained if you can find the right path.
Our guest in this episode is Nadab Akhtar. Nadab and his CrowdPoint team leverages smart contracts and blockchain technology to protect human identity with their Vogon Decentralized Cloud. This Vogon beast is designed to handle massive amounts of data - securely with ease.
You gain the benefits of transparent data sharing and a revolutionary new kind of secure data protection, plus reliable “data lake” CrowdPoint calls Collective Intelligence.
Join Nadab and David, our host, as they explore how CrowdPoint is trying to enable users to own their data, even as it moves around the world. We’re talking previously unprecedented control over things like identity, finance, and commerce in the new Web3 economy. At least that’s the CrowdPoint vision. We can’t predict whether they’ll succeed or not, but it’s something to consider.
This is NOT a technical discussion or deep dive into CrowdPoint’s technology. Instead, this podcast is a layman’s introduction into how businesses (small, medium, and large) ultimately could leverage CrowdPoint’s blockchain fintech in decentralized markets that connect real-world goods and services with consumers.
Nadab has 15+ years’ experience in corporate advisory and M&A transactions. He currently leads strategy, finance, banking, legal, and regulatory functions at CrowdPoint which has developed the first hybrid utility token to be filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

Life can be a lot like Chutes and Ladders, the classic children’s board game, says Richard Moran, author of a new book, NEVER SAY WHATEVER: How Small Decisions Make a Big Difference(McGraw Hill; April 11, 2023).
Each time you say “whatever” you slide down a chute, but each time you make a decision, you have the potential to climb a ladder and move forward. Moran, host of the syndicated show “In the Workplace,” observes that “whatever” has become a flippant remark that is essentially a dismissal of responsibility.
David, our host, and Richard agree that “whatever” is a “four-letter word,” similar to the F-word, S-word, N-word and others. It’s toxic, disrespectful, and can be irresponsible.
Moran takes this a step further. He believes at work using the “w” word can be a career killer with short-and long-term consequences. And in personal relationships it’s toxic. It almost always defers or eliminates a decision or a choice that should be made.
But the w-word is a habit. A bad one. Join this discussion if you’re tired of Gen Z or any other generation dismissing your ideas, concerns, and/or commands as a leader with “whatever…”
Moran has data to back up his conclusions, and ways to overcome this bad habit. Join this podcast to learn more.
Moran has served as a CEO, a college president, a venture capitalist, and a top-level consultant. He has worked for or with some of the world’s leading organizations including Accenture, Apple, News Corp, American Airlines, PG&E and many others. He prides himself on his matter-of-fact manner of consulting and believes that many parts of the business world are needlessly complicated.
Moran holds a Ph.D. in organizational behavior but his work is not academic. Research is important, but he believes what is just as critical are the observations one can make by being in the “trenches” of business. His observations are candid, humorous, and true.

Everyone has emotional attachments. It’s part of how humans are designed to survive and thrive. However, everyone also has gaps or wounds in the ways we relate to others in our workplace and personal lives.
Our guest in this conversation is Tracy Crossley. Tracy is a behavioral expert, author, and podcast host of two weekly podcasts: Freedom from Attachment has over 600 episodes, and she more recently launched, Earned Wisdom for Accomplished Leaders.
Do you have insecure attachments? Take Tracy’s short, free quiz here.
Tracy’s approach can be a game-changer for women professionals seeking to maximize their careers while balancing complex personal lives. She and her team also help men, whom some would say can be less aware of relational issues.
Tracy’s team focuses on issues many have with emotional well-being, bias, expectations, self-doubt, being in a daily emotional struggle, and learning to trust themselves. They have a six-month system to crush that negativity committee in your brain that’s holding you back.
Join David and Tracy as they discuss how to acknowledge yet silence the attachment beast, and keep it at bay. This is a battle we all face, often much more than we realize. Don’t miss these insights to open your mind to new ways to greater success and meaning in life.

Timing can be a good thing, but you still need to lead a company successfully. Gary Harpst and his partners founded Solomon Software at the start of the PC industry. Thousands of companies started, but most failed.
What made Solomon a winner?
Gary discusses his story and insights from his third book, “Built to Beat Chaos, Biblical Wisdom for Leading Yourself and Others” (Wiley), which is being released this month. Apparently, over 47% of leaders say that chaos is pervasive in their organizations. Gary believes that although disorder can feel overwhelming at times, humans are actually designed to overcome and conquer chaos.
He has a simple three-step formula for you: What effective leaders should know, do, and be.
Join this podcast to be challenged as a leader to better avoid and overcome chaos in your business. Gary’s humble wisdom is refreshingly simple and effective.

Would you like to Elevate, Elevate, and Excel what you do? Jim Saliba is a former engineer who’s become a leadership coach. He uses a scorecard to keep people on track that’s pretty interesting as part of his Triple E structure.
Jim also talks about the 4 fears of leadership. Do you have a negativity committee in your brain that keeps beating you up? Virtually everyone does. The key is how to overcome that noise to achieve results that are meaningful.
David called it a scorecard whereas James refers to it more as metrics to rate your people. Color code it to know people’s capabilities at a glance. What criteria would you put on that scorecard? It can’t be too long, or too short. It’s got to be Goldilocks length, and have the specifics that are most important about your team.
Starting his career as a software engineer and eventually becoming a VP of a $4 billion tech company, Jim developed his Six-Step Leadership Challenge, which he later shared in a book that was released in Sept 2022.
Join this podcast if you’re looking for ways to overcome your fears as a leader, or you want to create a powerful scorecard to use with your team to drive results to the next level.

The USDA says food waste is “estimated to be roughly one third of the food intended for human consumption in the United States.” Our guest today, Matthew Bertulli, says the actual number is closer to 40% of our food ends-up in landfill.
When food is wasted it goes to the dump, which generates methane. Methane gas is more toxic than Carbon Dioxide (CO2). This is serious stuff, but what can you do about it besides trying to waste less food?
Well… what happens in your grocery shopping and kitchen makes a difference.
Matthew is a software engineer, who reluctantly turned into a marketer and entrepreneur. After bootstrapping his first company to 100+ people over 10+ years, he sold it to private equity in 2018. He had stumbled onto the gargantuan problem of waste on our planet. It overwhelms many, but Matthew zeroed in on one issue he found complicated because he loves a challenge: How to combat food waste.
The result is Matthew is the Co-founder and CEO of two consumer brands: Pela Case and Lomi.
Pela is a certified B-corporation, has Jay-Z as a notable investor, was named Top 10 in the Canadian Business Growth 500 ranking, and is #1 in Deloitte’s Fast 50 for cleantech businesses in Canada.
Lomi has a countertop food waste compost system that has sold over 120,000 units. But can these two companies slow the earth’s demise enough to make a difference?
To learn more, join David conversation with Matthew.

Sometimes you just need some straight talk about how to increase sales and profits in your business. No lofty marketing expenses. No plan to hire people. No risky decisions.
Our guest today, Tim Redmond, says you need to “change your looks.” Not your appearance. He’s talking about redirecting your focus to what’s truly going to drive your business rather than fighting the fires of false urgency.
What we like best about this podcast is how Tim gives our audience simple tips to grow their business. In about 30 minutes, you can gain an idea that could increase your sales 50-100% in one year. He has case studies on his website, such as a glass installation company that was doing $23K/month in revenue. Six months after they started working with Tim, their business grew to $88K/month.
Tim’s practical advice on this podcast helps you. Don’t worry about being sold. You can take these tips and implement them on your own.

How would you respond to a disappointed boss that yelled at you after a significant failure?
Many leaders would look for another place to work. Tim Lupinacci made a different decision 30 years ago. He became a self-professed “leadership junkie” to improve his leadership skills. On this podcast, Tim discusses some of his best habits and ways to achieve significant things through others.
Today, Tim is CEO and Chair at Baker Donelson, where he leads over 1,300 individuals in 22 offices across the Southeastern US. The firm is one of the nation’s top 100 law firms, and it has a strong HR practice for other leaders.
Of particular interest to us, is that Tim recently launched a non-profit called “Everybody Leads.” It’s focused on empowering individuals in underserved communities with basic leadership skills and confidence to better lead themselves, lead others, and lead in the community.
Whether you’re a new leader or seasoned veteran, Tim has a perspective you can gain from. Join this discussion to learn more about how Tim’s journey can help you, and his nonprofit might be something for you to consider supporting.

Would you like insights from a top sales leader? This is not a Microsoft-endorsed podcast, but our guest Helen Fanucci is a highly successful Microsoft sales executive who wants to share her best practices with you.
Most sales managers think, “My team better make quota, or I’ll lose my job.” It’s pretty simple. However, Helen’s sales leadership approach is to shift your focus intentionally and pragmatically from traditional deals and dollars to the ambitions, success, and well-being of each member of your team.
This means the sales professionals on your team are your first, middle, and last selling priority every day for sales management. They are your number one customer!
Part of the reason for this change is the hybrid work revolution that began back in 2020. Sales management is even more important in our innovation economy, yet simultaneously the most challenging.
Why? Because the workforce power structure has been flipped upside down, putting every top seller in a position to write their own ticket. Helen’s solution is her system to Love Your Team, including 17 crucial conversations every sales manager should be having regularly with their people.
Join this podcast to learn more.
Helen Fanucci is an MIT-trained engineer who has built her reputation and career managing teams responsible for billions of dollars of quota. She developed the Love Your Team system of sales management over a 25-year career on the front lines at top tech companies including Apple, Sun Microsystems, IBM, and Microsoft.
Helen’s first book is a hit: Love Your Team, A Survival Guide for Sales Managers in a Hybrid World. She also hosts the Love Your Team podcast, which focuses on retaining top talent and building high-performing teams.

“Your thoughts do not define who you are,” our guest, Matt Tenney of The Mindfulness Edge, advises us. What does that mean?
Matt appealed to us as a guest because his agent communicated he had leadership lessons from a prison and a monastery. That sounded intriguing. Matt does have a four-step leadership system that can help many leaders.
But it’s what he learned in prison that I found most useful.
Matt also explained how he starts every workday with 20-25 minutes of mindfulness, exercise, time with his family, and then blocks off his calendar until 11:00am. Only urgent needs from clients get his morning time. Makes you wonder… What’s Matt doing until 11am each workday? Coffee and hot tubs?
No.
Matt sets aside every workday morning for “asset building.” WOW! Love it.
What would happen if you did not look at email or answer texts/IM, etc. until 11am, and you invested that time into asset building?
Listen to this podcast to learn more.
Are you wondering what Matt shared about his time in prison? You should. It’s powerful. I can say so myself because I’m applying his Mindfulness Edge in my life. (David)
Listen to this podcast. Good conversation. Plus, two tips that can change your life.

The most important relationships to live out your company values are with your employees.
Can you state your company values from memory? If not, why not? Are you living them out daily? How do you know?
Aaron Burnett lives out his company’s values every day. As a result, people describe Aaron as “trustworthy,” “astute,” “imaginative,” and “scary smart.” These are rarely adjectives used to describe marketing agency leaders after they have been in the industry for decades. But Aaron walks his talk.
Wheelhouse Digital Marketing Group is recognized by INC Magazine as one of the best places to work in the United States, and by both Seattle Magazine and the Puget Sound
Business Journal as one of the best workplaces in Washington State.
The seeds of Wheelhouse were sown over 25 years ago on the banks of the Bohorok River in Sumatra. You can read that story here.
However, if you want inspiration and ideas of how to supercharge your company culture, then join this podcast to hear what Aaron has to say. This is an engaging, inspiring conversation about building a thriving culture that is infused with helpfulness, generosity, and joy.

Jerome Deroy was hired, but did not connect with the company’s culture. When he did, he found it lacking direction. Do any of your employees have the same feelings about your firm?
Honest, engaging storytelling that touches people’s hearts changes relationships, professional and personal. How well do you explain things to others?
Did you know the human brain is hard-wired for story? Scientific studies show us that we remember stories more than data, statistics, and numbers. Yet most people in business try to convince others rather than use a story.
Jerome and his Narativ team seek to change that. They help companies activate behavioral change from the inside out. Their methods of listening and storytelling can transform anyone’s communication.
In this podcast, Jerome shares aspects of the rigorous and precise Narativ method that gets to the emotional heart of a story to better communicate your company’s value, a point your want to make, or the way a partnership can be a huge win-win for those involved.
Join us to hear Jerome’s tips. There’s got to be one here that can help you communicate more effectively with others.
Jerome joined Narativ in 2007 after the founders, Murray Nossel and Paul Browde, handed him a shoebox full of notes and said, “We think there’s a company in here.” Jerome had recently left a position at BNP Paribas, Hong Kong, and come to New York to pursue a career in filmmaking. Instead, he jumped at the challenge — and transformed Narativ into the business it is today.
For the last 13 years, Jerome has worked closely with clients as diverse as CIGNA, Boehringer Ingelheim Pharmaceuticals, Janssen Pharma, and Warby Parker to craft business-relevant personal stories for sales, leadership, and team building. He regularly lectures at Parsons New School of Design in New York City on The Art of Storytelling.

Here’s your chance to learn from a “Brain Geek.” Wendy Swire wants to teach us how to rewire our brains to create laser-focused results as we move from “Saboteur” to “Sage Brain” thinking.
Everyone knows the health benefits of having disciplined, positive habits or routines. For instance, physical fitness, spiritual prayer – worship – meditation, time with loved ones… but what about mental fitness?
Science has now proven we can train our cognitive muscles to avoid, block, or more quickly recover from negative attacks within our brain. Everyone has them. We are actually wired to be negative as part of our survival instincts. However, we are NOT wired to endure the constant onslaught of manipulative media and/or wounded people that pester us with negative messages thousands of times daily. (If we allow them to…)
Learn more about yourself on this podcast, and visit our Manage 2 Win page on Wendy’s site to take a free 5-minute assessment.
Join this conversation to get glimpse on how you can be stronger, even a superpower, by growing positive neural connections to the 10 attributes of your positive “Sage Brain.” Stop the “saboteurs” and negativity committee’s attacks. Recover more quickly.
This is great stuff.
Our guest, Wendy Swire, is the founder of Swire Solutions. She is a global executive coach, author, applied neuroscience consultant, Founder of the DC Neuroleadership Group, and certified mental fitness coach.

You lost your job. You decide to love on people. You choose coffee. You have a loan commitment from a bank and sign a lease to open your first coffee shop. Then you lose the loan.
What now?
For Morne Van Staden, newly married and with a child on the way, the decision was to continue the journey. Go all in. Total financial and operational transparency with his lovely bride, Nicole. Solid advice from a limited number of mentors. Keep the faith, and their eyes on the road ahead.
So, what happened?
Nine years later, Journey Coffee has five locations. A pastor volunteers to train soft skills to new employees. Lots of community and caring is happening. Unlike other food service outfits, Journey Coffee has no trouble hiring. They serve about 900 people daily.
Their motto is, YOU MATTER.
Journey Coffee’s vision is, “We endeavor to restore and rejuvenate genuine human community
where all people can feel welcome, valued and loved.”
Does your America, home country, business, or neighborhood look like that?
If not, and you’d like it to look that way, join this discussion to hear Morne’s journey. It’s onsite in one of their coffee shops. Fun, insightful, warm, and full of hope.

Carey Smith grew Big Ass Fans from zero to $300 million over 18 years without outside investors. He shares key parts of his story on this podcast.
It’s interesting to note that when he sold Big Ass Fans for $500 million, the company’s stock appreciation rights program paid out $50 million to more than 100 loyal employees who shared Carey’s work ethic with 15 becoming overnight millionaires.
Every year, American entrepreneurs start more than 500,000 companies, but only 200 will ever reach $100 million in revenue. Even many that succeed will later fail.
One valuable tip from Carey is that he personally called each new customer to hear first-hand what they liked about their Big Ass Fan, and more importantly, learn what they thought could be improved. Why did he do that?
Because Carey believes in a “fail-fast” approach to drive revenue quickly. He learned a valuable lesson that you can usually tell within a short time if an idea’s going to work. If it doesn't, then make the conscious decision to fail fast. Carey tells his employees, “If you’re not making mistakes, you’re not working.” Growth comes only from taking risks.
Before Big Ass Fans, Carey spent more than a decade trying to grow another company, but its annual sales never rose above $1.4 million. Carey admits he ignored warning signs and thought he should persevere a bit longer.
Today, Carey leads Unorthodox Ventures, an Austin-based investment company he founded to provide everything venture capitalists lacked when they approached him near daily at Big Ass Fans. Carey’s team consists of experts who help founders become serial entrepreneurs by providing support for everything from engineering and marketing to customer service and logistics.
Join this conversation to become introduced into Carey’s success model.

When people don’t get your story right, they often buy from someone else. Therefore, effectively communicating the value of your company’s services is crucial to your company’s profitability and growth.
David Saltzman is a marketing guru who joins us to candidly share common mistakes too many leaders make in explaining what their company does, and what to do instead.

Rarely do we get to speak with people who are saving lives. Every day. Navid Alipour and his team are some of these people. Why? His life was changed when his wife faced cancer.
Join this discussion for hope. David talks with Navid about two companies he cofounded, not just funded, CureMetrix and CureMatch. The AI technology behind these ventures was developed by some of today’s greatest minds to improve disease detection and cancer survival rates across the globe.
Cancer is a vicious demon that consumes an estimated 1,670 lives a day in America. It continues to be the second most common cause of death in the US, after heart disease. A total of 1.9 million new cancer cases and 609,360 deaths from cancer are estimated to have occurred in 2022 (American Cancer Society).
Navid shares candidly how he and his teams pursue these solutions. Some are awaiting the U.S. government’s full blessing, but are available to people worldwide today. The stories are touching. The hope is real.
Although a primary focus of these companies is breast cancer, the impact of the seeds Navid and his cofounders have planted is sprouting into a crop of cancer fighting tools the world has never seen before.
Learn more about his story and their progress by meeting Navid on this podcast. You might have a friend or colleague in the future who will benefit from you sharing what you discover.
Navid Alipour is the Chief Executive Officer at AI Med Global, a company focused on Artificial Intelligence Technology that improves healthcare and helps save lives. AI Med Global is a roll-up of two companies Navid cofounded, CureMetrix and CureMatch. He is also a founder of AI focused VC fund, Analytics Ventures.

Have you posted a YouTube video that has 1.4 million views? Peter Anderton has (here). It’s on his two rules of great leadership. The popularity of this post demands us to consider it.
David interviews Peter about leadership, well beyond his TED talk, "Great Leadership Comes Down to Only Two Rules." Do you have leaders complaining about their people? How do you get your team pulling together and heading fully focused in the right direction so amazing things happen?
Peter suggests we build beliefs about people, products, systems, situations… These beliefs, often based on assumptions, can lead us to make disastrous decisions. We lack clarity on truth, but feel we have complete understanding. Oops. Wrong approach.
Peter Anderton is the Founder of Internal Alignment, where he helps leaders build processes so they can 10x their companies from inside out. He and his team have worked with hundreds of companies, including giants like Jaguar Land Rover, 3M, Atkins, HSBC Holdings, Michels & Taylor, and Huntsman. Their programs typically deliver 1000%+ ROI.
Peter shares the single biggest predictor of consistently high-performing teams. Join us for this and many other insights on how you can be your best.

Some consultants and leaders use diversity to divide. Dr. Lauren Tucker believes another approach is more effective: Focus on inclusion.
Dr. Tucker is the Founder and CEO of Do What Matters. She is an entrepreneur who works with other entrepreneurs. She talks candidly with David about how traditional diversity efforts often hurt the very people they are intended to help, and good intentions have not led to a sustainable impact.
Dr. Tucker believes inclusion means all your employees feel invested in the mission of your company and success of the work. One challenge is to achieve a win-win where diversity is a solution, not a problem to be fixed. But if you want to go for inclusion, how do you build on your company’s strengths with a strategy that reduces cultural resistance to change, and enables you to achieve sustainable inclusion and representation goals faster?
It's not easy, but it is doable. Part of the problem is the toxic media and political environment today that seeks to divide people by fear. Join David and Dr. Tucker as they discuss how inclusion efforts fail and succeed in your company.

Today’s guest, Sam Citro Alexander, is an admitted Food Lover and Nutrition Nerd who’s bitewell team is on a mission to make healthy eating easy, convenient, and accessible for all.
Sam and her team says they tried about 1,000 different food and nutrition apps, but concluded none helped people eat well. Instead, most healthy eating platforms focus on cooking and preparation although the average American only cooks 1 meal a day.
Food is part of the fuel for your employee performance. Companies have varying degrees of support for employees on mental health, physical health, emotional health… but most Americans fail to consider how their diet affects their personal and professional lives.
Bitewell is an app that captures how we really eat. Our snacks, the food we order out, our iced lattes, what we cook… Why track it? Because this enables us to consider making small changes to WHAT we eat and tracking how it affects us.
Join this conversation to hear how Samantha Citro Alexander decided to leave her exciting role as the Chief of Staff to Jane Lauder at Clinique, NYC, part of The Estée Lauder Companies to start bitewell. She has also been the Director of Integrated Marketing (Smashbox, LA), where she co-created Jefacon, a women’s empowerment and leadership summit celebrating the Beauty of Being a Boss.
Why leave her high profile job at Clinique for the entrepreneurial grind? What has she learned? Join this fun, energetic, informative discussion to find out.

Q: Why must you complete a background check on every person BEFORE their first day on the job?
A: Because there are too many liars applying for jobs with your company.

Is there an easy way to improve posture and prevent back pain caused by conventional sitting?
If so, you’d say, “Sounds interesting, but I’m too busy right now. Have to take my Advil because my back is killing me!” (You’d blow it off because you’re stuck in an unhealthy routine.)
Today’s show interviews Dr. Turner Osler, who invented the QOR360 (“core” 360) chair with a patented mechanism his team calls RedRocker™ Technology. Listen to today’s podcast to consider skeptical questions by our host, David Russell, and where the conversation lands.
QOR360 offers a 60-day money-back guarantee and pays the shipping both ways. You can’t get more risk free than that, but is it worth it? Do you think your conclusion will match David’s?
Dr. Turner Osler is a retired academic trauma surgeon, turned research epidemiologist. He is the CEO and Founder of QOR360, a company specializing in active seating products for homes, offices, and schools. QOR360 chairs are designed to eliminate back pain and fatigue when sitting upright in typical chairs. You might want to read some of the articles on his blog.

All QOR 360 chairs are made in America.
When you communicate to someone via email, text, phone… what’s the #1 thing you want?
A response.
How do you get more responses?
Darin Dawson of BombBomb believes you get more responses by sending brief videos to people. David, our host, challenges the BombBomb approach because (like you?) he’s sick of all the phony LinkedIn connections, spam emails, and pitches.
Yet a brief video email on the BombBomb platform may some intriguing benefits. Darin claims video emails increases not only response rates, but also improves relationships. David and Darin have a candid discussion. You can decide for yourself whether video emails are in your future.
P.S. Are you aware it’s important to deliver bad news verbally first, rather than in-writing? What about good news? Darin and David discuss both…
Darin Dawson is the Co-Founder and President of BombBomb, a Human-Centered Communication Platform that enables users to use simple, personal video messages to leverage their best asset … themselves.
Darin is on a mission to re-humanize the planet and he wants to start with your business communication. He believes that human beings have intrinsic value and that every person deserves to be. He even wrote a book about it titled, Rehumanize Your Business.
