    What the Grateful Dead can Teach us about Business with Brian Mohr

    Though many simply think of them as a jam band, the Grateful Dead are one of America’s longest-enduring, most unique, and best-performing businesses. Throughout a career that has lasted over five decades, they have created a culture, a highly profitable business, and a mindset out of organized chaos. Furthermore, they have survived as a leaderless organization and cemented their legacy in the decades following the death of founding guitarist and effective bandleader Jerry Garcia in 1995.  If you want to look at numbers for proof, consider the fact that the band made over $50 million almost exclusively from touring and merchandise sales in 1994. Also consider that Dead & Co., the band’s current incarnation led by John Mayer, grossed over $40 million from ticket sales in 2019 and recently wrapped up a residency at the Las Vegas Sphere that grossed over $130M in gross revenue. Joining me on today’s podcast is fellow Deadhead Brian Mohr. Brian is on the national Board of Directors of Conscious Capitalism, Inc., and is the co-founder of anthym, where they use music to help culture-driven organizations create and nurture meaningful relationships amongst their people.  So, even if you’ve never connected with their music, throw your preconceived notions out the door as we dive into a conversation about how to develop prestigious brands, create customers for life, and build small businesses thinking seriously about conscious capitalism into massive, life-changing organizations.  In this podcast interview, you’ll learn:  Why the Grateful Dead letting fans tape and share recordings of their concerts was an early and extremely effective form of content marketing. How Jerry’s death and the subsequent infighting between band members mirrors when founders exit - and how John Mayer has stepped into Jerry’s role in a leaderless way while breathing new life into the band and its business.  How the Grateful Dead used their mailing list to create an extraordinarily effective marketing machine that fostered a massively inclusive community and treated them right. Why psychological safety and feeling connected is crucial to being vulnerable enough to take risks and achieve the biggest successes in business.  How technology leaves us feeling both more connected and isolated than ever before - and what business leaders and managers can do to address these issues.  Interview Resources Brian Mohr anthym.life anthym on LinkedIn | X/Twitter | Facebook Brian Mohr on LinkedIn  Feed My Starving Children Habitat for Humanity Monday.com Trello Slack WhatsApp Elton Mayo’s Human Relations Movement Gallup Q12 Employee Engagement Survey

    Purpose, Passion and Pajamas with Genevieve Piturro

    Over the last 30 years, Genevieve Pitturo has had an extraordinary journey. She established herself as a television executive in New York City, but soon found herself looking to do something more with her life.  This led her to create the Pajama Program, a nonprofit that helps kids that are facing tremendous adversity with housing insecurity and ensures they have equitable access to healthy sleep so they can thrive. Since 2001, they have provided pajamas and books to more than 8 million kids nationwide.  In our conversation, you’ll hear why Genevieve’s career in television was leading to feelings of emptiness and why she made the leap to charitable work, how she built a network around her to turn her vision into a thriving charity, and the beauty of giving back to our communities.  In this podcast interview, you’ll learn:  How a little voice in her head inspired Genevieve to look for something more in life, break from her workaholic lifestyle, and follow her passion by giving back.  How Genevieve bootstrapped her charity from the ground up–and the critical mistakes she made along the way.  The four truths leaders need to embrace when pursuing their passion. How Genevieve balanced purpose and profit as she transitioned out of her television career and launched the Pajama Program. The difference between having–and being–a boss.  Interview Resources Pajama Program Pajama Program on LinkedIn | Facebook | Instagram | X/Twitter  Genevieve Piturro Genevieve Piturro on LinkedIn | Instagram | X/Twitter Mary Tyler Moore McDonald’s Oprah Winfrey Jamie Dyce
