486: Hidden Genius with Polina Marinova Pompliano Aug 01, 2023

Show notes

Twitter, or X, or whatever we’re calling it these days is an incredible place to learn and meet new and exciting people, despite what others are saying. It’s all about who you CHOOSE to follow that makes all the difference. Someone I follow—I don’t recall who—made mention of a new book called Hidden Genius: The […]

485: An Unbound and Unbridled Path to Unstuck Growth with Bryan Orr Jul 25, 2023

Show notes

When I first met today’s guest several years ago, it was actually the second time I’d met him. Apparently, I said something like, “Nice to meet you.” To which he replied, “We’ve actually met before. I obviously made a strong impression,” or something to that effect. I liked his sense of humor right away. His […]

484: The Surprising Science of High-Performing Teams with David Burkus Jul 18, 2023

Show notes

This week’s guest is making a repeat appearance (or should I say, “three-peat” appearance?). It’s been a while since his last visit, but I can say it is definitely worth the wait. His name is David Burkus. We previously chatted with David about his books Friend of a Friend and Under New Management. His new […]

483: The Illusion of Choice with Richard Shotton Jul 11, 2023

Show notes

My guest this week is making his first—and hopefully not his last—visit to the Read to Lead Podcast, and on the eve of the show’s 10th birthday, no less. His name is Richard Shotton. He’s written a followup to his amazingly well-received The Choice Factory. It’s called The Illusion of Choice: 16 1/2 psychological biases […]

482: How Leaders Can Move Teams From Isolated to All In with Steven Van Cohen Jul 04, 2023

Show notes

I was in a crunch for time the week I sat down with today’s guest and needed to get through his book (a seven- to eight-hour read) in a single day. What to do? I had a physical copy of the book in hand, but needed to get through it quickly. I decided to use […]

481: How to See What Others Don’t with Constance Dierickx, PhD Jun 27, 2023

Show notes

This week’s guest—someone who I once referred to as “a hoot”—makes her second appearance on the show, her first in nearly six years. Her name is Dr. Constance Dierickx. We last heard from her way back in Episode #190 to talk about her book High Stakes Leadership. This time she’s here to discuss her brand […]

480: The Case for Good Jobs with Zeynep Ton Jun 20, 2023

Show notes

Two years ago, my 81-year-old mother, fell in love with Turkish culture. Credit Turkish men. Suffice to say, there’s not a Turkish movie or soap opera she hasn’t seen at least twice. She’s even teaching herself the language. This means, of course, that possibly for the first time ever, she’ll be excited to give one […]

479: Finding Clarity, Confidence, and Courage with Dr. Heather Penny Jun 13, 2023

Show notes

Once in a great while, a book title just grabs you in a way that makes you want to stop what you’re doing right then and there and open it up to experience the gems you know are waiting inside. I recently discovered just such a book, and its gems were numerous to say the […]

478: Protecting Your Brain in the Digital Age with Dr. Carl Marci Jun 06, 2023

Show notes

In the conclusion of my book Read to Lead (BakerBooks, 2021), I argue that the evolution of our brains have been adversely impacted by technology. That books helped rewire our brains in a positive way when they came on the scene hundreds of years ago, and that today’s screens—and the ways in which we interact […]

Show notes

Today is a real treat for me (and for you), as I get to welcome—for the third time—the person I consider to be one of the world’s greatest thinkers and authors. He’s certainly had a huge impact on me and my life. That thinker and author is the one and only Seth Godin. He’s written […]
