The Leadership Gambit
The Toolkit for Business and Life You Were Never Taught
Let’s be real: you don’t need more cliche advice and a lot of content doesn’t go deep enough. You need practical guidance you can actually use to help you overcome your challenges or achieve your goals.
Recent studies show most people today feel unsupported, underprepared, and overwhelmed by a system and management that teaches very little about navigating, leading, or thriving in the chaos of modern life.
This podcast is for anyone who’s ready to take ownership of their personal journey and needs a guide to support them along their path.
We take over 20 years of real-world experience, hundreds of field experiments, and the best of leadership, psychology, and personal development knowledge and turn it into clear, honest, and useful guidance you can start using right away.
No fluff, real talk, and real tools, to thrive at work and in life.
Hosted by Chris Miller and Dane Smith. Edited by Joseph Pitz.

S07E01: The Leadership Illusion: Why The System Doesn't Want Leaders
Most people think they know what leadership is, but what if everything we’ve been taught is wrong? In this episode, we break down why real leaders are disappearing, how companies confuse management with leadership, and what you can do to lead authentically in a system built to suppress it. If you’ve ever wondered why true leadership feels so rare, this conversation will change how you see power, culture, and your own potential to lead.
