    Building Deeper Connections Through Questions with Topaz Adizes

    Welcome to the What's Next! Podcast with Tiffani Bova.    I have the honor and pleasure of welcoming Topaz Adizes to the show today.    He is an Emmy Award-winning writer, director, and experience design architect. He is an Edmund Hillary fellow and Sundance/Skoll Stories of Change fellow. His works have been selected to Cannes, Sundance, IDFA, and SXSW; featured in New Yorker magazine, Vanity Fair, and so much else. He has garnered an Emmy for new approaches to documentary and two World Press Photo awards for immersive storytelling. But what I'm here today to talk to him about is his new book called 12 Questions for Love.    THIS EPISODE IS PERFECT FOR…anyone looking to build stronger relationships—at work or in life—through the power of better questions.   TODAY’S MAIN MESSAGE…we often focus on having the right answers, but real connection comes from asking the right questions. Topaz Adizes has spent over a decade studying human connection, guiding more than 1,200 pairs of people through transformative conversations. In this episode, he shares how the way we ask questions can strengthen workplace culture, improve team dynamics, and create more meaningful personal relationships. By shifting our approach—from looking for the “right” answer to fostering authentic dialogue—we unlock deeper understanding, trust, and collaboration.   KEY TAKEAWAYS… The best conversations start with thoughtful, well-constructed questions. Shifting from binary to open-ended questions leads to richer, more meaningful responses. A strong workplace culture starts with intentional communication and connection. Small shifts in how we structure meetings can make them more productive and engaging. Great leaders aren’t just problem-solvers—they’re great guides who know how to ask the right questions.   WHAT I LOVE MOST…Topaz’s insight on the power of well-constructed questions. His technique to ask open-ended, connective, and intentional questions creates space for deeper conversations, whether at work or in personal relationships.   Running Time: 31:43    Subscribe on iTunes     Find Tiffani Online: LinkedIn Facebook X    Find Topaz Online: LinkedIn  Website   Topaz’s Book:  12 Questions for Love: A Guide to Intimate Conversations and Deeper Relationships

    RELOAD: Fact Versus Fear and Becoming a True Student of Success with Bill Wooditch

    Welcome to the What's Next! Podcast with Tiffani Bova.     This week I’m eager to replay a conversation with Bill Wooditch. Bill is the founder and CEO of Wooditch Enterprises. He works with Fortune 500 companies like AIG, Old Republic, Zurich, and Bank of America to improve their sales and leadership.

Unless you’re able to first move through the pains of rejection and the fear of the attempt, you will not be able to move forward to create the lifestyle you dream of. The key here is to be dispassionate about failure and check your irrational fears, ego, and the fear of losing prestige because this can paralyze your progress. Bill shares some wisdom and strategies for addressing fear, failure, and the pursuit of success.   WHAT I LOVE MOST… it’s a pleasure to have someone on the What’s Next! Podcast who talks about fear of failure and having the courage and fortitude to lean into the kind of discomfort that leads to success.    Running time: 32:34   Subscribe on iTunes   Find Tiffani Online: LinkedIn Facebook X   Find Bill Online: LinkedIn Website   Bill’s Books: Fail More Always Forward

That is the power of the Innovation Tournament, it leaves room for that magic spark to fly while giving it direction and structure. Beyond Innovation Tournaments, it’s about becoming continuously connected.

    RELOAD: Creating Confidence with Heather Monahan

    Welcome to the What's Next! Podcast with Tiffani Bova.    This week I’m reflecting on a conversation with Heather Monahan that I think is valuable to everyone, no exceptions! Heather is a best-selling author, keynote speaker, entrepreneur, and founder of Boss In Heels. As a Chief Revenue Officer in Media, Heather Monahan is a Glass Ceiling Award winner, named one of the most Influential Women in Radio in 2017, and Thrive Global named her a Limit Breaking Female Founder in 2018.

Confidence is the key to unlocking your full potential, and that confident mindset starts with you. It starts by developing that confidence skill through discipline and frequency. When that confidence muscle is strong, scary does not mean freeze, it means go faster. So, take action! Major action is the catalyst that accelerates the confidence growth cycle. There are many paths to confidence, but not all the steps along those paths are created equal, and the bigger the risk, the bigger the confidence reward. Stop letting self-limiting beliefs and fear tell you you’re stuck. No excuses. Just take action!    WHAT  I  LOVE  MOST… Heather has no shortage of passion for building confidence, taking risks, “firing your villains,” and making the big decisions that will lead you where you need to be and doing what you love!    Running Time: 30:03     Subscribe on iTunes    Find Tiffani Online: LinkedIn Facebook X    Find Heather Online: LinkedIn    Heather’s Book:  Creating Confidence

    RELOAD: Building Trust in an Influencer Market with Tom Stockham

    Welcome to the What's Next! Podcast with Tiffani Bova.     This week I am excited to replay a conversation I had with the innovative Tom Stockham. Tom is a passionate champion of disruptive technologies who began his career as an associate at BCG, immersed in the shift to “big-box” retail. He later served as president of Ticketmaster.com, where he helped lead the transition to online ticketing. Then, as CEO of Ancestry.com, he built one of the Internet’s first online content subscription businesses. Today, as CEO of ExpertVoice, Tom leads the company in pioneering a new influencer-marketing category that’s transforming commerce. He’s devoted to the mission of creating a better buying experience for brands, retailers, and consumers through a large network of authentic influential experts who make trusted recommendations.     THIS EPISODE IS PERFECT FOR… passionate disrupters, innovators, and those interested in learning more about influencer marketing.    TODAY’S MAIN MESSAGE… brands should always put trust at the center of their organization and make a concerted effort to build it up over time. Increasingly, the sources brands are and should be using to do this are Influencers. It’s time to shift the balance and shift resources from speaking on your own behalf as a brand to finding trusted figures that can recommend your brand and speak on your behalf in a trusted way. If you are going to do this well, you need to think about who is going to be best to speak on your behalf, how you are going to get them to do so and be more articulate about your brand, and where that influence is going to take hold such that it is beneficial to your brand.     WHAT I LOVE MOST… talking to an innovator who has been involved with so many major industry transitions. Now he’s driving the conversation around Influencer marketing, and he feels that this is the next great frontier.    Running time: 34:26    Subscribe on iTunes     Find Tiffani Online: LinkedIn Facebook X   Find Tom Online: LinkedIn  ExpertVoice

He has been on the Forbes Midas List eight times in the last decade and was also named a “Rising Star” by FORTUNE and profiled by Harvard Business School for his lifetime contributions to entrepreneurship.

Some of Mike's investments include Twitter, Clover Health, Okta, Outreach, Chegg, Demandforce, and Applied Intuition. And he has a new book out called Pattern Breakers with his co-author, Peter Zimmerman.    THIS EPISODE IS PERFECT FOR…anyone curious to learn about the ingredients to start-up success.    TODAY'S MAIN MESSAGE…why is it that 80% of start-ups fail? What factors sets the 20% apart? As a seasoned venture capitalist, Mike says it comes down to breaking patterns. In this episode, he shares how to break away from linear strategies and dare to think boldly and take a risk.    KEY TAKEAWAYS...
