2/2 A Life of Significance, Battling Rupert Murdoch: Warwick Fairfax

Are you a fan of the TV show, Succession? It's a show about an aging and tyrannical patriarch who is a media mogul and heads an international media conglomerate that's controlled by him and his family. As someone who has worked with multi-generational business families, I can tell you that the show may be a parody. But there are some painful realities, including what are often multiple attempts to take over, either from outside forces or from other family members. The question becomes, does being born into a family business mean you are going to be good at business? Moreover, does it mean you will automatically be a good leader? Furthermore, if you do get to have succession and then you discover you are a bad leader, can you come back from it? If so, how? Our guest on the next two episode is Warwick Fairfax. Warwick lost his family's 150-year-old media dynasty, worth $2.25 billion. Yet, he has emerged to lead a more fulfilling and significant life helping others move beyond their failures and setbacks. Today, Warwick Fairfax is the founder of Crucible Leadership. He's the host of the Beyond the Crucible podcast and the author of the bestselling book, Beyond the Crucible: Embrace Your Trials to Lead a Life of Significance.

Are you a fan of the TV show, Succession? It's a show about an aging and tyrannical patriarch who is a media mogul and heads an international media conglomerate that's controlled by him and his family. As someone who has worked with multi-generational business families, I can tell you that the show may be a parody. But there are some painful realities, including what are often multiple attempts to take over, either from outside forces or from other family members. The question becomes, does being born into a family business mean you are going to be good at business? Moreover, does it mean you will automatically be a good leader? Furthermore, if you do get to have succession and then you discover you are a bad leader, can you come back from it? If so, how? Our guest on the next two episode is Warwick Fairfax. Warwick lost his family's 150-year-old media dynasty, worth $2.25 billion. Yet, he has emerged to lead a more fulfilling and significant life helping others move beyond their failures and setbacks. Today, Warwick Fairfax is the founder of Crucible Leadership. He's the host of the Beyond the Crucible podcast and the author of the bestselling book, Beyond the Crucible: Embrace Your Trials to Lead a Life of Significance. Warwick is the phoenix who has risen from the flames of his own ego as a better human. Website https://crucibleleadership.com.

2/2: Living In Space (Not MARS): Will Henry

Humans have a propensity to think in absolutes. For instance, fire the team member or keep them? Get divorced or have a baby? Consider this, the profound and innovative technologies tend not to be either or, but rather AND based instead. Who can we look too? Who can teach us an AND way of thinking, particularly when confronting the really big questions, the really big problems we face? You may love or hate people like Elon Musk, Richard Branson, or Jeff Bezos, but as a leader, you likely do want to know what drives them to extraordinary heights? One thing is certain, these individuals tend to be solution-based not in an either-or but very much in an AND way. So, let me ask you, do you know what or who got someone like Jeff Bezos to even think about big problems, particularly in an AND way? The answer may surprise you. It is a man who very few people today would even recognize the name of, a man who our guest today has made a fascinating movie about. The gentleman I'm referring to has inspired everyone from Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk to Star Trek creator, Gene Rodenberry. A man who, when you watch this movie, 'The High Frontier,' may change your entire understanding of the possibilities and value of the new space race. Our guest on the next two episode is Will Henry, Producer at Multiverse Media. Will is a Filmmaker and Writer based in Los Angeles, CA. Born and raised in Princeton, NJ, Will later attended the School of Visual Arts in New York City as a Directing/Screenwriting double major where he graduated top of his class. Will began his career in development at Tribeca Film under Jane Rosenthal and Robert De Niro, and later as a Creative Executive at Cindy Cowan Entertainment. Will Henry then moved into the independent film industry as a Filmmaker and Writer shortly after relocating to Los Angeles, CA. He is the Senior Producer at Multiverse Media and has gained recognition for his first feature documentary film, The High Frontier: The Untold Story of Gerard K. O'Neill.

1/2 Now Lead The Change: Nick Jankel

How can you and I as leaders innovate while wrestling the relentless beast of change? The answer is that you must become transformational leaders who lead transformational businesses. Innovation is more than a hot subject, it's a necessity of survival, but have you considered what real innovation means to you and your team? Aside from coming up with something new, it's a mindset and in many ways a state of emotional fortitude. Innovation means change. Change inevitably means some level of fear, chaos and potentially massive uncertainty. So, what does medical science, innovation and transformational leadership have in common when it comes to leading into an innovative future? Our guest is Nick Jankel. Nick is an influential thought leader and bestselling author whose life's work is to understand how individuals and organizations can unlock transformations that forges the future.He has a Medical Science background from Cambridge University.

2/2 Lessons from Sandy Hook: Jen Marr

Comfort may be one of the great human paradoxes. We want it, we need it, but when we get too much of it, we can become demotivated, even lazy. 2020 and 2021 have been defined by political polarization and a global pandemic; no one has been untouched. We're all looking for some kind of comfort. Comfort may not have been something we saw a place for in the workplace. However, maybe we need to Break Open the Myths we have around Comfort by making a clear distinction between comforting and comfortable. So, here's the question. Is there a specific way to deliver comfort to someone who is in massive distress, and do so in such a way that it's effective for that individual, perhaps in turn to the entire organization? Let's find out together. Our guest is Jen Marr. Jen is the founder and CEO of Inspiring Comfort. She comes from a highly successful corporate background and found herself facilitating care and recovery efforts at Sandy Hook after the mass shooting. In an age of increasing social disconnection, she is disrupting the education and mental health spaces as she trains organizations, schools, and communities on how to activate the skill of comfort and cultivate a caring, connected culture. Jen has delivered her Comfort Skills Programming to such notable organizations such as The Mental Health Association of New York State, The New York Office of Mental Health, the American Association of Suicide Prevention, Georgetown University, and Northeastern University.

2/2 Simplifying Complexity, The CEO Super Power: Adam Byant

There is practical training and a test to become a driver, yet often, there is no real training or test to become a good CEO. In fact, the research shows that most people in management don't get any real leadership training until they have on average 10 years in management. The result is fumbling or downright failed leadership. Now, you may have been a leader for a long time, but if there was a CEO Test, do you honestly believe you would pass? Let's find out together. Our guest is Adam Bryant. Adam has interviewed more than 700 CEOs about the key leadership lessons they've learned, first as a journalist at The New York Times, and now in his interview series on LinkedIn as part of his consulting work with ExCo Group, an executive mentoring and leadership development firm.

2/2 Psychological Safety of Daily Mission, Debrief: Rob "Cujo" Teschner

In the corporate world, the idea of 'accountability' is seen as a core function of management. However, if we think about it, in many ways we've had accountability upside down. Here's what I mean; we pay more attention to knowing who to blame in case we fail than to creating the conditions to succeed. What that means is that oftentimes, accountability is seen as a threat rather than a debrief strategy for success. So, what might happen if we turned that around? Is it possible that we've got accountability upside down? If so, how can we get it so that our people want to embrace accountability? Our guest today is Mr. Rob "Cujo" Teschner. Cujo is a veteran of Operations NORTHERN and SOUTHERN WATCH over Iraq. He's a former F-15 Eagle instructor at the prestigious U.S. Air Force Weapons school—the Air Force 'Top Gun' program. Cujo's also a former F-22 'Raptor' fighter squadron commander; that's the CEO of an organization that employed more than $4 Billion in low-volume, high-demand assets designed to take the fight deep into enemy territory. He is the Founder and Principal at V.Max Group, a Leadership and Teamwork training company. To top all that, he is also a cancer survivor. Cujo is the bestselling author of, Debrief to Win: How America's Top Guns Practice Accountable Leadership.
