Leading Organizations That Matter
A weekly podcast covering topics of interest for those who lead, support, or simply care about "organizations that matter". These include mission driven, nonprofit health care and social service organizations that exist in order to improve the lives of those who experience great challenges. Profitability is obviously important... but so too is the recognition of the other forms of value generated in these settings. Podcast topics include how we finding meaning, purpose, and impact in our work, organizational culture, leadership challenges, changing the trajectory of struggling organizations, and practical leadership strategies. Episodes are brief and to the point, always with the goals of informing and elevating listeners. Occasionally, I interview leaders and experts in related fields and hope to bring you inspiration and information to facilitate your personal leadership and life journey.

In this episode, I share a surprising moment after a guest lecture that made me rethink what people really want from leaders. The students didn’t care about my turnaround frameworks - they wanted to know how careers actually unfold: the choices, the pivots, the regrets, the risks. It pushed me to consider shifting the podcast slightly toward those deeper, practical questions about building a meaningful work life. I also talk about the future of the show... audio, video, or both... and invite your feedback as I chart the next chapter.
