This podcast features interviews with extraordinary leaders and world-class experts to showcase new ways to think, plan, and act strategically. You’ll discover game-changing insights, tips, and techniques to turbocharge your performance and position you as a true difference-maker in your arena.

“Rich I just want to say I’ve done a lot of podcasts, and your professionalism with your team is the very best I have ever had the opportunity to be with. Your thoughtfulness, the fact that you’ve read and know all my background – know all the books, I feel like it’s my privilege to have someone who is so knowledgeable and has a team that is actually interested in the highest level of excellence. I hope I have lived up to it. But you are, you are the best of the best that I’ve experienced, and I’ve been down that road with a lot of people. So thank you.” Jim Loehr, World-Renowned Performance Psychologist and New York Times Bestselling Author
