    Kingdom Focused Leadership: Jack Kim on Purposeful Business

    "We put our egos in this temporary basket" This week on Delay The Decay, we welcome Jack Kim, founder and CEO of Denver-based KORE Investments, about integrating faith with leadership in commercial real estate. Jack shares his daily discipline of surrendering control through prayer, his view of entrepreneurship as stewardship under God’s ownership, and how trials cultivate dependence on the “vine” rather than self-sufficiency. We discuss pursuing excellence without grounding identity in achievement, serving others through a culture of hospitality, and treating every person—tenants, employees, vendors, and building staff—as equally valuable. Jack explains KORE’s corporate tithing model as a way to “convert” temporary wealth into lasting kingdom impact, and addresses purpose in work as a primary source of meaning. 00:00 Meet Jack Kim 02:37 Entrepreneurial Calling 06:08 Kingdom Economy Mindset 10:09 Ambition Without Identity Traps 14:30 Service and Hospitality Culture 24:20 Purpose at Work Platform 27:35 Shepherding as A CEO 29:29 Honor Gods Children 30:14 Kingdom Business Culture 32:06 Equip and Send 36:54 Beyond Transactional Leadership 39:58 Keeping Life in Order 43:32 Stewarding Health and Hope 46:21 Whose Shortlist Are You On 51:17 Trials That Shape Us 56:03 Attach Back to the Vine 01:01:38 Final Blessing and Wrap Thank you Jack Kim for being a guest on Delay the Decay!

    From Complacency to Commitment: Walt Taylor's Transformative Story

    "The very thought of distraction is taking you off the traction" In this episode of Delay the Decay, we interview Walt Taylor, a Christian business leader and founder of GWT2 Energy, about the personal wake-up call that shifted him from years of sedentary, undisciplined living to a more intentional life. Walt explains how watching his father’s physical decline and honoring his father’s deathbed request to lose weight and become active prompted lasting change, including deeper daily prayer and Bible study, improved nutrition, and consistent exercise. He shares how stacking small, sustainable habits and building accountability helped him lose 40 pounds and regain capacity to enjoy life with his family.

    "The older you get, the harder it is to listen" In this episode, we welcome Dr. Tim Elmore—founder of Growing Leaders, longtime collaborator with John Maxwell, and author of 40 books—about generational leadership, workplace diversity, and leading Generation Z.

    Risk-Taking Secrets from World Record Skydiver Jim McCormick

    " Everything we do during the course of any given day is a risk because we don't know the outcome until it's been completed." This week on Delay the Decay, I interview risk expert and world-record skydiver Jim McCormick, founder of the Research Institute for Risk Intelligence and author of The Power of Risk, about intelligent risk-taking, leadership, and mortality. We discuss understanding one’s changing “risk quotient,” balancing teams with complementary risk profiles, and how commitments like family affect decisions. Jim shares lessons from skydiving—passion, preparation, delegation, redundancy (main and reserve chutes), and “no plan survives first contact”—including the year-plus planning behind a 400-person record jump. He advocates a “culture of permission” for innovation and recommends bolstering competence to take constructive risks. 00:00 Meet Jim McCormick 03:16 What Risk Really Means 06:47 Know Your Risk Quotient 08:48 Natural vs Adapted Risk 10:32 Building Balanced Teams 12:36 Founders and Commitments 17:02 Excessive Caution Costs 20:24 The Gift of Mortality 25:08 Skydiving Lessons on Fear 27:09 Why Some Compete 30:09 Find Your Natural Gifts 32:01 Inside the 400 Jump Record 40:22 Leadership Lessons from Skydiving 44:02 Reserve Chute Backup Plans 48:36 Building a Risk Culture 51:57 One Courageous Step This Week 55:19 Keep Improving and Stay Persistent 57:45 Direction Not Perfection Farewell Thank you Jim McCormick for being a guest on Delay the Decay!
