  Episode #376

  Would you rather retire wealthy or fulfilled? | Ep 376

  Aug 15, 20262 minS1

  Would you rather retire wealthy or fulfilled? That's the question we recently discussed with Dave Hansen, CEO at ClientTether. Dave admits fulfillment does not exactly cover the dinner bill, but he still chooses it over a bigger bank balance. He shares that successful people rarely reach the end of life wishing they had earned more. They think about legacy, relationships, and whether they left people and communities better than they found them. For Dave, coaching baseball makes that real. Watching young players grow into adults, fathers, and leaders brings a return no spreadsheet can calculate. CEOs thinking about writing a book should take note: a book can capture the lessons, values, and stories that define your legacy long after the quarterly numbers fade.

  Episode #375

  Manage global risk or local complexity? | Ep 375

  Aug 10, 20262 minS1

  Would you rather manage global risk or local complexity? That's the question we recently discussed with Barri Blauvelt, CEO at Innovara. Barri explains that global risk does not faze her team. The bigger challenge is the economic cycle. When markets weaken, training and development is often one of the first corporate budgets to meet the red pen. Internal trainers also protect their roles, making outsourcing less likely. For CEOs thinking about writing a book, there is a useful lesson here: your expertise becomes more valuable when it addresses the risks your clients cannot simply budget-cut away. A book should not merely prove you are smart. Your LinkedIn profile already handles that humble task. Your book should show readers how you think when conditions get complicated.

  Episode #374

  10 podcasts or one keynote in front of 5K people? | Ep 374

  Aug 2, 20262 minS1

  Would you rather do 10 podcasts or one keynote in front of 5,000 people? That's the question we recently discussed with Eric Pratt, CEO at Instrumental Group. Eric chooses the keynote. Podcasts are valuable, but the audience can be mysterious. Who is listening? When will they listen? Are they taking notes or reorganizing the garage? A keynote offers greater predictability. You know exactly who is in the room, and 5,000 people are a pretty compelling reason to bring your best stories. CEOs face a similar choice when writing a book: chase scattered attention or create one powerful platform that delivers your ideas with clarity and authority.

  Episode #373

  Would you rather focus your roadmap on user demand or internal vision? | Ep 373

  Jul 25, 20261 minS1

  Would you rather focus your roadmap on user demand or internal vision? That's the question we recently discussed with Rich Sheridan, CEO at Menlo Innovations. Rich chooses user demand because customers are the experts on the problems you are trying to solve. But he also leaves room for visionary leadership. After all, customers can tell you where the shoe pinches, but they may not sketch the next sneaker. For CEOs thinking about writing a book, there is a useful parallel. Listen closely to what your audience needs, then bring the vision and experience only you can provide. That combination turns a book from a lengthy corporate brochure into something people may actually read. Check out more such insights in my bestselling business book Wisdom From Wizards.

  Episode #372

  Rather have a team that over-communicates or over-delivers? | Ep 372

  Jul 18, 20262 minS1

  Would you rather have a team that over communicates or over delivers? That's the question we recently discussed with Jennifer Schielke, CEO at Summit Group Solutions. Jennifer chooses over communication, and her reasoning is one every CEO should hear. Over delivery may look great on the scoreboard, but if your team is exhausted by halftime, the strategy is not sustainable. Strong communication keeps everyone in position, prevents costly own goals, and helps the team perform without burning out its best players. The same applies when writing a book. A CEO does not need to sprint through every chapter like it is stoppage time. Clear communication and the right support produce a better result than heroic last-minute chaos.
