    Bad Leadership Is Destroying Companies ***Here's How To Fix It*** EP105

    In this solo episode of Ten Thousand Miles, Vic Pepe takes on one of the most critical and often overlooked forces inside any organization: leadership. Not the polished version you read about in books, but the real impact leadership has when it goes wrong. Vic breaks down how bad leadership quietly erodes companies from the inside out. From lack of clarity and indecision to poor #communication and tolerating mediocrity, he explains why companies rarely fail because of competition and almost always fail because of internal factors. Drawing from decades of experience leading large teams and organizations, Vic shares real stories from the front lines. He dives into the true cost of poor leadership, why top performers leave first, and how culture collapses long before the numbers show it. He also outlines what great leaders do differently. Clarity over complexity. Decisiveness over hesitation. Accountability at the top. And most importantly, building other leaders, not just managing outcomes. This episode is a raw and practical look at leadership for anyone building, leading, or trying to fix an organization. If you lead people or aspire to do so, this is one you do not want to miss.

    The Most Powerful Word In Negotiation... It's Not What You Think - Derrick Chevalier - EP104

    https://h-c.com/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/derrick-chevalier-6323272/ In this episode of Ten Thousand Miles, Vic Pepe sits down with Derek Chevalier, founder of Harrison Chevalier and creator of the CNSUF negotiation framework, for a fascinating conversation about one of the most important and underrated leadership skills in business and life: negotiation. This is not just a conversation about closing deals. It is about human behavior, psychology, leverage, communication, and the hidden dynamics that shape every interaction. Derek shares how he got started in the world of negotiation, his years working inside the Chester Karrass system, and why he eventually challenged traditional negotiation thinking to create a more adaptive real-world framework. Together, Vic and Derek unpack why so many people focus on the problem instead of the people in the room, why perception often beats reality, and why the best negotiators know how to read the room long before they ever walk into it. They also explore: • Why negotiation is part of every human interaction • The flaws in rigid “win-win” thinking • How elite negotiators prepare before they enter the room • Why incentives drive behavior inside large organizations • How procurement, vendor management, and sales often work against long-term success • The psychology behind bluffing and reading people • Why “no” may be the most powerful word in any language • How children may actually be the world’s most natural negotiators If you are a business leader, entrepreneur, executive, salesperson, or anyone who wants to communicate with more clarity and influence, this episode is packed with insight you can apply immediately.

    The Military World Games Story Nobody's Talking About

    In this episode of 10,000 Miles, host Vic Pepe sits down with Ike Belk and David Koerner, the co-chairs of the 2027 Military World Games Local Organizing Committee, for a behind-the-scenes look at one of the biggest global sporting events most Americans have never heard of. Born of the post–World War II idea that nations can compete in sport rather than conflict, the Military World Games are powered by CISM (International Military Sports Council) and its mission of friendship through sport. Now, for the first time in history, the United States will host the Military World Games in 2027, with Charlotte, North Carolina, as the centerpiece. We cover what the Military World Games are, how they differ from the Olympics, why this event is “diplomacy in motion,” and what it takes to execute a multi-venue, multi-sport global competition involving active-duty service members and elite athletes from around the world. Ike and David also share the origin story of their partnership, the bold decision to pursue the bid, the international travel and negotiations, and the leadership lessons behind building a team capable of delivering an event of this scale. If you care about leadership, logistics, global cooperation, and honoring those who serve, this episode will light you up. Topics include: • What CISM is and why the Military World Games exist • Why 2027 is a historic first for the USA • Charlotte’s role and what it means for the Carolinas • The scale: venues, sports, security, transportation, and athlete village planning • Media, streaming, and why the world is about to learn what this event really is • The “peace through sport” mission and the real diplomatic impact Subscribe for more conversations with builders, leaders, and people doing big things that move the world forward. #MilitaryWorldGames #CISM #PeaceThroughSport #CharlotteNC #TeamUSA #Olympics #Leadership #SportsDiplomacy #Military #10000MilesPodcast Please Comment, Like, Share, and Subscribe! #shorts #shortsfeed #podcast #leaders #stories #podcast #courage #business #Success #Leadership #Motivation #Inspiration #SelfImprovement #PersonalDevelopment #GoalSetting #Mindset #Entrepreneurship #BusinessSuccess #LifeGoals #PositiveThinking #AchieveYourGoals #SuccessMindset #LeadershipSkills #MotivationalQuotes #SuccessTips #LeadershipDevelopment #InspirationalVideos #SuccessStories #money #life #rockandroll #music #CEO #COO #CFO #CAO #nextjob #goodtimes #success

    Vic Pepe sits down with Coach Riley Dodge to talk about the leadership lessons that football teaches long after the final whistle.

    https://www.linkedin.com/in/briahnforster/ In this episode, I sit down with Bri Forster, Channel Director at Avant Communications, and one of those rare professionals who immediately stand out through execution, urgency, and care for the people she works with. Bri shares her journey from earning a psychology degree at Rider University and originally planning a career in healthcare, to pivoting into medical sales, then technology through SHI, and ultimately finding her home at Avant, starting in March of 2020, right as the world shut down.
