    Sahil Bloom on Why Success Isn’t Just About Money

    Are you chasing the wrong kind of wealth? We all chase success, but too often, it’s tied to money, fame, or career milestones. Sahil Bloom, author of The Five Types of Wealth and creator of the Curiosity Chronicle newsletter, believes that true wealth lies in a balance of time, relationships, health, mental clarity, and financial stability. In today’s episode, Sahil introduces a fresh way to think about success by focusing on these five types of wealth. We explore how to connect your work to your purpose, overcome the trap of overthinking, and use simple frameworks to build deeper connections and more meaningful progress. We’ll unpack Sahil’s transformative insights, including why chasing money without purpose leads to burnout, how to build "social wealth" to combat the loneliness epidemic, the power of questioning cultural norms to find your identity, and how even small actions can create massive compounding effects in life.   ________________ Start your day with the world’s top leaders by joining thousands of others at Great Leadership on Substack.

    Sparks: Employee Engagement Is Not a Long-Term Workplace Solution

    Most employees start their journey excited and motivated, but that enthusiasm often fades when organizations rely on perks like yoga or free food to boost engagement. These quick fixes don’t address deeper needs. In today's Leadership Spark, we dig into the critical difference between employee engagement and employee experience, showing how leading companies shift from superficial perks to meaningful workplace transformation. Learn why only 6% of organizations excel in creating environments where employees thrive—and how your company can join them.   ________________ Start your day with the world’s top leaders by joining thousands of others at Great Leadership on Substack.

  8. Strategies For Effective Mentor and Mentee Relationships At Work

    Strategies For Effective Mentor and Mentee Relationships At Work

    Mentorship is often misunderstood. Many mentees expect their mentors to drive the relationship or solve their problems. But Amy Salcido, President of Kyndryl U.S., shows us a different take on how to do mentorship right. In today’s episode, Amy shares her unique insights from leading a team of 16,000 employees in one of the world’s largest IT infrastructure companies. Amy unpacks the lessons she learned at IBM, where mentorship was pivotal in her rise to executive leadership. She explains why mentorship fails without proactive mentees taking responsibility for their own growth, how authenticity accelerates leadership success, and why the best mentors don’t give you answers—they guide you to find them yourself. We also tackle the surprising benefits of focusing on passions instead of job titles and how to structure effective mentor-mentee relationships in any organization.   ________________ Start your day with the world’s top leaders by joining thousands of others at Great Leadership on Substack.
