All New For 2017

In preparation for the new year, I’m working with Randy Cantrell out of Dallas/Ft.Worth, Texas to create a professionally produced podcast series titled The Year of the Peer, with Leo Bottary. The series will begin on Thursday, January 12th and post on the second and fourth Thursday of every month.

My guests will be top leaders, authors, journalists and scholars from all walks of life. We’ll talk about a universally accepted truth with myriad dimensions – who you surround yourself with matters. This is especially noteworthy in a world where trust in our institutions is low, and where the complexity and blistering pace of change are affecting everyone. Leaders today are challenged more than ever to prepare for a future most of us can barely imagine.

There’s simply never been a time where understanding and experiencing true peer advantage has ever been more essential. We’ll have conversations about leadership, accountability, vulnerability, and collaboration, among other things, that you just won’t get anywhere else. If you’re a leader at any level, or you want to be one someday, this show is for you!

In the next few weeks, I’ll release the names of our guests for the first quarter of the year – some of whom played a critical role in the development of The Power of Peers: How the Company You Keep Drives Leadership, Growth & Success – as well as other voices who will join us for what promises to be an even larger conversation. You won’t want to miss it, so keep checking back for details about how you can subscribe.
