Ep. 194 - The Hidden Financial Beliefs That Shape Great (and Bad) Leaders
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode of The Today Counts Show, host Jim Piper Jr. sits down with Darryl Lyons, CEO of Pax Financial Group, to uncover one of the most overlooked forces in leadership: the hidden financial beliefs that shape how great (and bad) leaders think, decide, and influence others. Every leader—whether in business, ministry, or the public sector—operates from a philosophy of money, and that mindset impacts everything from budgeting and stewardship to generosity, risk tolerance, and organizational culture.
Jim and Darryl explore the difference between healthy financial beliefs that strengthen leadership and unhealthy money mindsets that quietly sabotage decision-making and credibility. Drawing from Darryl’s experience leading a national financial firm, this episode blends biblical wisdom, real-world leadership insights, and practical examples to help you recognize the financial assumptions shaping your leadership style.
If you’re ready to grow as a leader, steward resources wisely, and build a healthier relationship with money, this conversation will challenge your perspective and give you tools to lead with confidence and integrity.
