  Aug 20, 20262 minS2

  Send us Fan Mail Episode 11 is here!!!! Every leader has felt the weight of a decision they didn't ask for. But here's what nobody tells you: fear doesn't always look like paralysis. Sometimes it looks like another meeting, another email, or another attempt to follow the proper channels, while the decision keeps getting delayed. This week, Benton and Zach join me to talk about the tension between responsibility and fear, what it means to step into uncomfortable situations, and how to move forward when the decision lands on you. If you've ever known you needed to act but wondered what it might cost you, this one's for you. ️ Check the link in the first comment to subscribe so you don't miss it! #P3Podcast #FollowWellLeadWell #LeadershipDevelopment #ExecutiveCoaching #CourageousLeadership About Preston Poore Preston Poore is a former Coca-Cola executive who practices what he preaches.

  Trade-offs vs. Avoidance: Why Inaction Is the Most Expensive Leadership Decision

  Aug 13, 202637 minS2

  Send us Fan Mail Every leader wants an option with no downside. That option doesn't exist. In this episode, author and Purpose Summit founder Davin Salvagno joins me to tackle the tension every leader faces in the decision-making arc: when both paths cost you something and the temptation is to choose neither. ⸻ ⏱️ Episode Highlights [01:57] – Trade-offs vs. Avoidance: Why saying no or not yet is still a decision, and it comes with its own price tag. [03:51] – The 16 Ounce Bottle: Preston's Coca-Cola story, two legitimate positions, both backed by real logic, both with real costs. [10:28] – Meet Davin Salvagno: Author, speaker, and founder of the Purpose Summit, on helping leaders discover purpose at work. [12:11] – Notre Dame or Charlotte: Davin's story of choosing between two good options, and why one required leaving everything behind. [15:55] – Wise Caution vs. Avoidance: The difference between a yellow flag and a red flag, and how to tell which one you're looking at. [18:33] – When Avoidance Becomes Disobedience: Why delaying a decision you've already been called to make is its own kind of cost. [21:09] – The Half Million Dollar No: The moment Davin walked away from vesting stock options, and why he did it. [27:44] – Divine Intelligence vs. Artificial Intelligence: Why the best decision-making framework starts with God, not a model. [31:04] – Gethsemane: The clearest trade-off evaluation in Scripture, and what it teaches every leader about naming the cost out loud. ⸻ Links & Resources Mentioned • Discipled Leader Apprenticeship — http://prestonpoore.com • Discipled Leader Book — http://prestonpoore.com/books-by-preston • How is Greater Than What Book — http://prestonpoore.com/book • About Preston — http://prestonpoore.com/about-preston_poore • Purpose Summit (Davin Salvagno) —https://www.thepurposesummit.com/ Coming to Atlanta in October • Davin Salvagno's Books — http://davinsalvagno.com/#books -section ________ Connect With Me LinkedIn: http://linkedin.com/in/prestonpoore Facebook: http://facebook.com/PoorePreston Instagram: http://instagram.com/prestonpoore1 ⸻ Closing Thoughts If today's episode hit home, share it with someone who needs to hear it.
