    About:

    I'm joined by two leaders who have built careers around one simple idea: great businesses are built by great people.

    First is Josh Robinson, a transformational executive with more than 20 years of experience leading finance, technology, and business strategy across organizations ranging from $50 million to $7 billion in revenue. Josh is known for building high-performing teams, creating cultures that attract top talent, and helping companies think big, start small, and scale fast.

    Joining him is Mike Nathan, a Navy veteran, entrepreneur, investor, and startup builder who's helped launch, advise, and invest in more than a dozen companies across industries. From Search & Rescue Swimmer to founder, board member, and operator, Mike believes that business is one of the most powerful vehicles for creating meaningful impact for people and communities.

    Together, Josh and Mike bring an incredible combination of operational excellence, entrepreneurial grit, and people-first leadership. I'm excited to dive into their journeys, what they've learned building companies and cultures, and where they see the future of work and leadership heading next.

    Key Takeaways:

    1. Not every high performer should become a manager.
      Companies need meaningful advancement paths for strong individual contributors instead of forcing them into leadership roles they may not want or be equipped for.
    2. Leadership is less about having every answer and more about building the right team.
      Great leaders trust subject-matter experts, ask better questions, and create the conditions for others to execute.
    3. Authenticity builds more trust than pretending to know everything.
      Employees respond better to leaders who admit what they do not know and work alongside the team to find the answer.
    4. Conviction can matter as much as competency.
      Skills may get someone through the interview process, but genuine belief in the company’s mission determines whether they will remain committed when things get difficult.
    5. A founder’s ability to delegate is a critical indicator of scalability.
      Founders who constantly say “I,” control every decision, and cannot step away will eventually become the bottleneck in their own business.
    6. Raising capital should serve a specific goal, not someone’s ego.
      Companies should pursue funding when it accelerates product development, sales, expansion, or a planned exit, not because announcing a major round has become a status symbol.
    7. AI is creating the rise of the “Army of One.”
      Individuals and small teams can now use AI, outsourcing, and personal branding to produce the output and profitability once associated with much larger organizations.
    8. Take the “Army of One” seriously, but not literally.
      AI can dramatically increase individual productivity, but growing companies will still need talented people when complexity, scale, and human connection demand them.
    9. Replacing employees with AI is often the wrong strategy.
      The greater opportunity is to give employees AI tools, remove repetitive work, and redeploy people into more valuable roles that improve service and generate revenue.
    10. The professionals who thrive will combine expertise with AI fluency.
      Human judgment, technical knowledge, and relationship skills will remain valuable, but people who fail to learn how to apply AI within their field risk being left behind.

    This episode is brought to you by our friends at Dalia. Who's ready for a cold hard fact? Indeed's pricing model -- and all programmatic job advertising -- is based on driving volume. Not outcomes. Job boards get paid on clicks and applies, not hires. Their incentive is to send you more volume. That's what happens with volume-based pricing models. And all that volume creates exactly what you'd expect: mass inefficiency, mountains of unqualified applications, and wasted spend.

    Meanwhile, TA teams know their career site is already their best source of quality applicants who get hired. TA teams invest in their career sites and employer brand, but the outdated technology makes it too hard for people to connect and apply.


    Dalia fixes that. Millions of job seekers use Dalia every month to seamlessly connect to employer career sites and apply to jobs using their universal candidate profile. No re-entering information over and over. It's like the ShopPay button, but for jobs. It's secure, it integrates directly into your ATS, and it works instantly on any career site. Employers using Dalia can double their conversion of career site visitors into qualified applicants and hires. Double the hires from traffic you already have. That's how you start cutting your dependence on Indeed.
