What if everything we've been taught about leadership is wrong?

After 15 years as a leadership consultant, I discovered a shocking truth: We're spending $370 billion annually trying to turn everyone into leaders—and we're systematically destroying the very talents that make people extraordinary.

In this episode, I reveal:

• Why most people DON'T want to lead (and that's perfectly fine)
• The real reason 75% of leadership programs fail
• How one "non-leader" saved his company $2 million by staying true to his gifts
• The future of work in an AI-driven world where authentic contribution beats forced leadership

This isn't just about fixing corporate training—it's about unleashing human potential on a scale we've never imagined. From a warehouse supervisor who revolutionized supply chain management to an engineer who built three billion-dollar companies, discover why the future belongs to organizations that honor what makes each person irreplaceable.

🎯 Key Takeaway: Skills are replaceable. Individuals are not. When we stop trying to make everyone the same kind of leader, we finally discover what each person was born to contribute.

In this episode of Making Business Personal, I sit down with Hollywood talent agent Rick Ferrari for a conversation that starts with the most epic lie you've ever heard and evolves into something much deeper. Rick opens up about growing up with a name that screams "destined for fame or infamy," his wild journey from New York's Studio 54 scene to becoming one of LA's most respected agents, and the life-changing friendships he built along the way.

But here's the thing – this isn't just about Hollywood glamour. It's about the stories we tell ourselves, the beliefs we outgrow, and what it really means to forgive the person you used to be. Rick's brutal honesty about his past, combined with his insights on kindness, authenticity, and seeing people for who they really are, makes this a conversation that'll stick with you long after it's over. Trust me, you've never heard an origin story quite like this one.

What if your "innovative leadership" is actually corporate ADHD? Research reveals that 61% of executives fail within 18 months because they're drowning in shiny object syndrome—constantly chasing new initiatives while never completing transformational work. This episode exposes the hidden cost of strategic promiscuity and why completion beats initiation every time. You'll master three game-changing tools: identifying and killing zombie projects that consume resources without delivering results, implementing the 90-day focus rule that forces choices between competing priorities, and building a completion culture that celebrates execution over ideation. Learn why companies like IBM lost market dominance not from lack of innovation, but from innovating everywhere at once. Transform from a leader who starts everything to one who finishes what matters.
