Build Real Executive Power with Dr. Peter A. James
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode of Training That Works, Rustin Schroeder talks with Dr. Peter A. James about what it really takes to build real executive power inside today’s organizations.
After surviving three corporate layoffs during the 2008 recession, Peter faced a decision that most leaders avoid. Stay safe with a steady paycheck or step into uncertainty and design a career built on freedom, influence, and impact. What followed was a shift into executive coaching that transformed not only his own trajectory, but the leaders and organizations he now serves. From healthcare to pharma to technology, Peter helps executives strengthen morale, elevate culture, and drive measurable performance from the inside out.
In this conversation, he breaks down why so many leaders get in their own way, how morale directly impacts customer experience and profitability, and why executive coaching is not a luxury but a competitive advantage. He shares the mindset required to make bold career moves, the discipline behind real leadership growth, and the uncomfortable questions that unlock clarity and authority at the top.
If you are a business leader who wants more influence, stronger teams, and real organizational momentum, this episode will challenge you to think bigger and lead differently.
