What is always felt but rarely defined? Culture. Regardless of what type of organization you are shaping and leading, your culture will define you if you don't define it first. Join Jady as he talks with Doug Wekenman , Pastor of Red Rocks Austin, and hear more about the importance of establishing a culture that helps you reach your vision.

Pivot. That's a word which perfectly describes the actions of the past twelve months. All of us have had to rethink what we do and how we do it. Leaders have had to tackle some hard questions. How do we make difficult decisions? What if a crisis could strengthen trust and loyalty in our organizations instead of creating panic? How do we communicate with our teams honestly even when there is still a lot of uncertainty? 

Sam Larson, founder and creator of Lone Flag, shares his experience of leading his company through the many ups and downs of the Covid-19 pandemic. Grab a pen and paper because you will want to take notes as Sam shares his wisdom in leadership.

What is the secret sauce of sustaining growth?  CLARITY.  One of the quickest ways to hamstring a growing organization or dream is a lack of clarity.  Often times we begin chasing the dream with great passion and zeal with the intention of impacting the world, but passion doesn't always equal success. So how do you foster clarity in your organization?  Joining us today for a convo on clarity is Carl Gulley, Lead Pastor of Antioch Waco and the guy that we all want to be when we grow up.  

The number one thing that stands in the way of the dreams that are in you is FEAR.  It is often in facing our fears and "going scared" that we find the most opportunity.  Joining us today as we dive into a conversation about finding your voice and kicking fear in the face is Jessica Honegger.  Jessica  is the founder and co-CEO of Noonday Collection, author of "Imperfect Courage", host of the Going Scared podcast and mom of three.  Jessica is passionate about encouraging others to leave comfort, go scared and to step into a life of impact.
