About Mindset First Podcast

Welcome to The Missing Link. This podcast is for founders, CEOs, COOs, and leadership teams who know their organization is capable of more, but can't quite see where something in the system isn't working the way it should. Each episode explores the upstream forces that shape how companies grow — vision, goals, leadership, communication, motivation, and the operating systems that influence how people work together. Because very often the problem leaders are trying to solve isn't the real problem at all. There's usually a missing link.

[…] You can lead a horse to water, I suppose, or whatever it is that's saying. And so you can only do so much. And I guess that brings me sort of, you know, what separates out those people who... really can show up and be trusted quickly from those who are overlooked. What's the difference between some of those people who can show up and really gain the trust or gain that sort of attention that they're looking for from their audience versus those that end up being overlooked? What do you notice there? One trait is people who are curious and really like people.
