    The Myth of the Introverted Leader: with Greg Weinger

    In this episode, we explore one of the most persistent misconceptions in modern leadership—the belief that influence requires volume. Joining us is Greg Weinger, a seasoned product and technology executive with more than 20 years of experience proving that introverts and unconventional thinkers can not only lead, but excel. Greg is the author and host of Powerful Introvert, a Substack publication and podcast focused on helping introverts unlock their leadership potential. Our conversation challenges outdated assumptions about what leadership should look and sound like. We unpack why “quiet” is often misinterpreted as disengaged, how introverted leaders create impact through presence rather than performance, and why organizations still default to rewarding loudness over effectiveness. Greg shares insights from scaling startups 10X to $70M+ in revenue, highlights the strengths introverts bring to fast-moving environments, and explains how self-awareness, listening, and thoughtful decision-making often outperform high-volume leadership styles. We also dive into Greg’s interdisciplinary background—from English literature and creative writing to software engineering—and how this blend shapes his approach to storytelling, strategy, and leading teams. He offers practical guidance for introverted leaders navigating visibility pressure, unpacks the real cost of “performing extroversion,” and explores how technology, biometrics, and machine learning can support wellbeing and performance. Together, we redefine what effective leadership looks like and make a compelling case for embracing a broader, more inclusive spectrum of leadership styles—where quiet doesn’t mean small, and reflective doesn’t mean passive.

    Surviving Bully Culture: with Andy Regal

    In this episode, we explore how fear-based leadership quietly deteriorates the core of any healthy workplace — creativity, psychological safety, and retention. My guest, Andy Regal, brings decades of experience from the highest levels of media, including senior roles at Court TV, CNBC, MSNBC, and The Wall Street Journal. Drawing from his book Surviving Bully Culture and his award-winning journalism career, Andy offers a candid look at what bullying and intimidation do to teams, talent, and long-term organizational health. We break down the difference between tough leadership and toxic behavior, the hidden costs of intimidation, and why innovation collapses when people don’t feel safe to speak up. Andy also shares personal lessons from navigating bully cultures and practical guidance for leaders committed to building environments where people feel valued, empowered, and free to contribute their best ideas. This episode is a call to action: if fear is driving your culture, creativity and trust are already slipping away. But with awareness, accountability, and intentional leadership, the workplace can become a space where people — and ideas — genuinely thrive. To learn more about Andy's work, visit Andyregal.com

    Can Your Culture Survive the Next Shake-up? - with Kim Bohr

    Disruption isn’t a matter of if—it’s a matter of when. And when it comes, your culture will either crack or stretch. In this episode, we sit down with Kim Bohr, President & COO of SparkEffect, to unpack the findings from the 2025 Trust in Turbulence™ report and explore why trust has become a measurable business driver—not just a soft virtue. Kim introduces her Trust Elasticity™ framework, which reveals how organizations can absorb shocks, protect trust, and even grow stronger after disruption. We discuss the stark difference between organizations that earn the Trust Dividend™—higher retention, reputation, and revenue—and those that fall into a trust deficit, where mismanaged crises erode confidence and future readiness. You’ll learn: Why 71% of employees faced disruption in the last two years—and what it means for leaders. The critical role of frontline leaders in building (and sometimes breaking) trust. How the five trust domains—strategic clarity, psychological safety, cultural belonging, systems trust, and fairness—shape resilience. Practical steps leaders can take today to make trust measurable, visible, and scalable. If you’ve ever wondered whether your culture can survive the next shake-up, this episode will give you the data, frameworks, and leadership practices to not just endure disruption—but turn it into a competitive advantage.
