    What Juices You with Tom Emery | Culture Is a Performance System — Start Treating It Like One

    Most HR leaders are trying to help. The ones who create the most impact have learned to do something harder. In this episode of the What Juices You Podcast, Brady Wilson sits down with Tom Emery, founder of HEX Consulting, former Chief People Officer, and author of the #1 Amazon bestselling book People People. With over 20 years of experience partnering with CEOs and executive teams across multinational banking and fast-growth industries, Tom has spent his career at the intersection of leadership, culture, and commercial performance. Tom makes the case that the shift from good HR leader to genuinely impactful one is not a skills problem. It is an identity problem. The helper identity — built around supporting, rescuing, and making things better for people — eventually becomes the thing that limits how much a leader can actually do. Letting go of it is uncomfortable. It can even feel like self-betrayal. But Tom argues it is precisely that discomfort that separates leaders who shape conditions from those who simply respond to them. In this conversation, you'll hear: Why culture only gets labeled "soft" when it has been built around comfort rather than honesty — and what a high-performance culture actually normalizesHow the most effective feedback has nothing to do with the person receiving it, and why Tom and Brady role-play this live in the episodeWhat it costs an HR leader to keep rescuing people when the job actually requires letting them sit in discomfortWhy engagement scores are a starting point for a conversation, not an answer — and what questions a leader should actually be askingHow to build credibility with a CEO when you are the guardian of the thing they are most likely to sacrifice under pressureIf you lead people — or lead the leaders who do — Tom Emery offers a clear-eyed, practical case for why the most human thing a leader can do is sometimes the hardest. -------- Transforming Workplace Engagement For Over 20 Years Whether you’re looking to grow leadership capabilities, build high-performance teams or fuel everyday innovation, Juice’s proven content and customized learning solutions will deliver lasting impact and help you transform your workplace.

    What Juices You with Claude Silver | Be Yourself at Work: What It Actually Takes to Mean It

    What does it actually take to make "be yourself at work" a real promise — not just a poster on the wall? In this episode of the What Juices You Podcast, Brady Wilson sits down with Claude Silver, the world's first Chief Heart Officer at VaynerX and author of Be Yourself at Work. With 12 years inside one of the world's most well-known creative companies, Claude has built people and culture infrastructure for a 2,000-person global organization where empathy is not an aspiration — it is an operational discipline. She shares what it really costs to create a workplace where people feel seen, what leaders get wrong about authenticity, and why the hardest part of her job has nothing to do with the individual standing in front of her. Claude makes a case that most organizations extend the invitation to be yourself without building the container that catches people when they do. This is a conversation about what genuine care looks like when it has both heart and spine. In this conversation, you'll hear: Why telling someone the floor will accept them is only half the job — and what the other half actually requiresHow most difficult behavior at work is an unmet need in disguise, and what changes when leaders ask "what happened" instead of "what's wrong with you"What the line between care and coddling really looks like — and what it costs leaders who can't find itHow Claude's Kind Candor framework builds the connection that makes feedback receivable in the first placeA simple tool called Rose Bud Thorn that any leader can use to read the energy of their team in everyday momentsIf you lead people and have ever wondered whether your culture commitments are succeeding (or just hanging on the wall) Claude Silver's perspective will give you something concrete to act on. -------- Transforming Workplace Engagement For Over 20 Years Whether you’re looking to grow leadership capabilities, build high-performance teams or fuel everyday innovation, Juice’s proven content and customized learning solutions will deliver lasting impact and help you transform your workplace.

    What Juices You with Lindsay Mackintosh | Leading from the Inside Out

    What does it look like when the person you are at work is the same person you are at home? In this episode of the What Juices You Podcast, Brady Wilson sits down with Lindsay Mackintosh, AVP and Head of HR at TD Insurance, whose career has been built on a simple belief: when people are supported, seen, and developed, incredible things can happen. Together, Brady and Lindsay explore what it means to lead from a place of genuine alignment — where values, energy, and identity are not divided between a work self and a home self, but integrated into one. Lindsay reflects on how she has sustained high performance across complex organizational transformations, raised three kids, and found energy in the chaos rather than being drained by it. The conversation moves across mentorship and sponsorship, the invisible load many women carry when the workday ends, what it takes to have honest conversations at home, and how presence with the people who matter most is a practice, not a personality trait. In this conversation, you'll hear: Why thriving in complexity is often a signal that your values and your work are genuinely alignedHow two leaders sponsored Lindsay into roles she would not have pursued on her own, and what that kind of belief actually looks like in practiceWhat the return-to-office shift means for the invisible load many women still carry, and what leaders can do about itHow Lindsay and her husband built a partnership at home that makes the demands at work sustainable, and the honest conversation it requiredWhy being fully present is something you have to decide, not something that happens on its ownIf you're a leader who wants to bring more of yourself to the work without burning out, this episode offers a grounded and honest look at what genuine integration actually takes. -------- Transforming Workplace Engagement For Over 20 Years Whether you’re looking to grow leadership capabilities, build high-performance teams or fuel everyday innovation, Juice’s proven content and customized learning solutions will deliver lasting impact and help you transform your workplace.

    What Juices You with Ginny Priem | The Leadership Case for Letting Go

    Most high performers have built their identity around contribution. Always showing up, never asking for help, pushing through. But what happens when that identity becomes the thing depleting you? In this episode of the What Juices You Podcast, Brady Wilson sits down with Ginny Priem, master coach, TEDx presenter, keynote speaker, and author of Unsubscribe: Why Letting Go Is the Secret to Getting Ahead. With more than 20 years of corporate leadership experience, Ginny helps high-achievers make intentional change without losing momentum through a four-pillar framework she calls UNSUBSCRIBE™. Ginny explains how the patterns that drive high performance, perfectionism, over-functioning, and people-pleasing, are often fear-based behaviors that quietly drain the energy needed to lead well. Her framework gives leaders four practical tools for releasing what no longer serves them: Block, Mute, Swap, and Manage. Unlike approaches that treat letting go as weakness, Unsubscribe is designed to be accountable, actionable, and applied in real time. Together, Brady and Ginny explore how leaders can make better, faster decisions by developing the discipline to release what's draining them and create space for what actually matters. In this conversation, you'll hear: Why perfectionism is fear-based and the simple swap that makes it workableHow the four pillars of Unsubscribe apply across relationships, leadership, and everyday workWhat a 1980s study on baboon troops reveals about what happens when you remove toxicity from a systemWhy over-functioning leaders often miss the signals their body is already sending themHow shared language makes it easier for teams to navigate friction without it feeling like a threatIf you're a leader who has built your identity around high performance and wants a practical framework for letting go of what's holding you back, this episode offers a clear, actionable approach to reclaiming your energy and leading with greater intention. -------- Transforming Workplace Engagement For Over 20 Years Whether you’re looking to grow leadership capabilities, build high-performance teams or fuel everyday innovation, Juice’s proven content and customized learning solutions will deliver lasting impact and help you transform your workplace.

    What Juices You with Kevin Rice | Scaling Success Without Losing What Matters

    What does success look like when ambition, leadership, and family all compete for the same limited energy? In this episode of the What Juices You Podcast, Brady Wilson sits down with Kevin Rice, founder, investor, and leadership thinker. Kevin shares the story of co-founding Hathway straight out of college and growing it from a garage-stage startup into a 200+ person digital consultancy before its acquisition by Bounteous in 2021. Drawing from both his entrepreneurial journey and his experience as a full-time single father during a period of intense professional growth, Kevin reflects on the tension many leaders feel between building ambitious careers and staying present for the people who matter most. The conversation explores the habits, routines, and leadership mindset that helped him navigate pressure, build community, and rethink what success really means. Today, Kevin invests in and advises growth-stage companies through Theorem One Capital and hosts the CEOs & ABCs podcast, where leaders discuss the realities of leadership, parenthood, and redefining success beyond the boardroom. In this conversation, you’ll hear: Kevin’s journey scaling Hathway from a startup to a 200+ person organizationThe realities of leading through intense growth while raising a familyHow daily routines, accountability, and community support leadership resilienceWhy many leaders are rethinking traditional definitions of success and ambitionHow honest conversations about leadership and life can reshape how leaders show up at work and at homeIf you're a leader looking to pursue ambitious goals while staying grounded in what matters most, this episode offers a thoughtful conversation about leadership, resilience, and redefining success. -------- Transforming Workplace Engagement For Over 20 Years Whether you’re looking to grow leadership capabilities, build high-performance teams or fuel everyday innovation, Juice’s proven content and customized learning solutions will deliver lasting impact and help you transform your workplace.

    What Juices You with Norm Wolfe | Why Organizations Must Evolve Like Living Systems

    Most organizations are built and managed as if they were machines—optimized for efficiency, control, and predictable outputs. But what if that metaphor is fundamentally flawed? In this episode of the What Juices You Podcast, Brady Wilson sits down with Norm Wolfe, Founder and CEO of Quantum Leaders and author of The Living Organization. With decades of experience spanning Fortune 500 companies, startups, and executive advisory work, Norm shares why the traditional mechanical view of organizations limits performance—and why leaders must begin thinking about organizations as living systems. Norm explains how thriving organizations behave more like living organisms than machines: they evolve, adapt, mature, and align around a shared purpose. Through this lens, leaders can better understand how strategy, culture, and execution interact—and why many organizations struggle with flawless execution even when their strategies look sound on paper. Together, Brady and Norm explore how leaders can rethink organizational design, decision-making, and leadership to create environments where people, strategy, and execution operate in alignment. In this conversation, you’ll hear: Why the traditional “organization as a machine” metaphor often leads leaders astrayWhat it means to think about companies as living systems that evolve and matureHow purpose, structure, and leadership alignment shape an organization’s ability to executeWhy many organizations struggle with execution even when the strategy is clearHow leaders can design organizations that adapt, grow, and sustain performance over timeIf you're a leader looking to better understand how strategy, culture, and execution truly work together, this episode offers a powerful framework for thinking about organizations as living systems capable of extraordinary results. -------- Transforming Workplace Engagement For Over 20 Years Whether you’re looking to grow leadership capabilities, build high-performance teams or fuel everyday innovation, Juice’s proven content and customized learning solutions will deliver lasting impact and help you transform your workplace.

    What Juices You with John Kolm | Practicing Leadership Before the Stakes Are Real

    What if leaders could practice the toughest moments of leadership before they happen? In this episode of the What Juices You Podcast, Brady Wilson sits down with John Kolm, CEO of Team Results, former intelligence officer, and co-author of the international bestseller Crocodile Charlie and the Holy Grail. Drawing on decades of experience in intelligence training and leadership development, John shares how simulation-based learning helps leaders and teams build the capability to perform under pressure. Together, Brady and John explore why traditional training often struggles to prepare leaders for real-world complexity. Through well-designed simulations, teams experience the dynamics that truly shape performance — decision-making under uncertainty, coordination across roles, communication breakdowns, and the human reactions that emerge when the stakes rise. The conversation bridges lessons from aviation and intelligence training with the realities leaders face inside modern organizations, offering a fresh perspective on how teams learn, adapt, and improve their ability to lead together. In this conversation, you’ll hear: Why simulation-based learning can accelerate leadership development more effectively than traditional trainingHow lessons from intelligence operations and aviation simulators translate to leadership teams in businessThe difference between team development and traditional “team-building” activitiesWhat simulations reveal about decision-making, communication, and trust under pressureHow practicing leadership in realistic environments helps teams perform when the stakes are realIf you're a leader looking to strengthen how your team navigates pressure, complexity, and critical moments, this episode offers a powerful perspective on how practicing leadership can transform real-world performance. -------- Transforming Workplace Engagement For Over 20 Years Whether you’re looking to grow leadership capabilities, build high-performance teams or fuel everyday innovation, Juice’s proven content and customized learning solutions will deliver lasting impact and help you transform your workplace.

    What Juices You with Paul Ansloos | Restoring Value, Seeing Potential, and Leading with Attention

    What energizes a leader who has spent decades building systems, teams, and businesses that last? In this episode of the What Juices You Podcast, host Kris MacQueen sits down with Paul Ansloos, Founder Emeritus of ExpensePoint, for a deeply human conversation about restoring value—both in organizations and in people. Paul reflects on his 24-year journey building ExpensePoint into a global SaaS platform , but what emerges most clearly is not a story about software. It’s a story about attention. About seeing “good bones” where others see wear and tear. About choosing to restore rather than replace. From identifying friction in expense management processes to revitalizing historic buildings to reigniting confidence in team members who feel depleted, Paul shares the throughline that has fueled him: unlocking potential that already exists. In this conversation, Kris and Paul explore: Why restoring value—rather than starting from scratch—creates deeper, more sustainable impactHow disciplined discernment protects teams from burnout while preserving creative energyThe leadership power of full attention in a distracted worldWhy sustaining energy in uncertain times requires tuning out noise and investing in what truly mattersPaul’s wish for leaders is simple and grounding: be intentional about what you focus on, surround yourself with people who elevate you, and bring steady, generous energy into every room you enter. If you’re a leader who believes culture is built through care, discernment, and meaningful connection, this conversation with Paul Ansloos will invite you to slow down, look closer, and lead with presence. -------- Transforming Workplace Engagement For Over 20 Years Whether you’re looking to grow leadership capabilities, build high-performance teams or fuel everyday innovation, Juice’s proven content and customized learning solutions will deliver lasting impact and help you transform your workplace.
