Today's guest is Damon Lembi – CEO of Learnit, published author and host of the Learn-It-All podcast. As you may guess from the name, Learnit is a learning and training company that helps organizations upskill their workforce.
Through college, Damon thought he would be a professional baseball player. He was drafted by the Atlanta Braves in high-school but elected to go to college and played at Pepperdine and Arizona State. But after college he found himself without an option to go pro, and elected to join Learnit, which had just been started by his family, as a receptionist. Over time, he made his way up to CEO.
All of this makes for a very rich episode, where obviously you will hear about the leadership lessons from playing sport at a very high level, building your leadership approach as you move through your business, and how successful entrepreneurs can think about bringing the next generation into their business.

Joanna Strober is the CEO and founder of MIDI health, a company that provide tele health services to women in midlife. In the process, she ended up taking a leadership role not just for the company but for society as a whole, as MIDI Health does work that fills a big gap.
Like many founders, Joanna had the idea to start the company when she experienced this void of service personally. In our conversation, she very candidly discusses the experience that led her to the idea, and she shares how her previous career as a partner at a venture capital firm helped her design and build a company in a way that would enable it to be economically viable while fulfilling this mission. She also shares some eye opening statistics on what the status of healthcare for women is in this country.

Victor Cho, CEO of Emovid comes back to the podcast. In our first conversation he mentioned his passion for the topic of the Fourth Stakeholder and the role of business in society. We agreed that since it was a topic we both loved, rather than discussing it in that episode we would dedicate a whole episode to it. So here he is.
In the past 30 years, business has moved from a world where CEOs were expected to optimize for one stakeholder (shareholders) to three, adding customers and employees. As the environment becomes even more complex and we become aware of the direct and second order impacts that businesses has on society, Victor discusses a framework that CEOs can start to adopt to decide how to manage the Fourth Stakeholder - society at large.

Today's guest is Ali Cox, founder and CEO of Noble West, a marketing consultancy that specializes in food ingredients, agriculture and the entire agricultural ecosystem. Ali is not your typical CEO – before starting her business career, she won a world championship gold medal and an Olympic silver medal, in rowing. At the time she won it, in 2004, the US had not medaled since 1976 in her event, the women’s 8, and that team’s win launched an era of historic dominance for the US in the event.
In this episode, Ali discusses her transition from a professional athlete to a marketing and advertising professional, the evolution of her leadership style, and her mission-driven approach to improving the food supply chain. The conversation touches on the challenges of leading a remote team, the importance of setting clear expectations, and the significance of building trust within her organization. And since she is an expert in the food I also asked her for some advice for consumers on making informed food choices.

We started the conversation going way back to his experiences in elementary school, where he was always the smartest kid in the class, and how he had to mature and adapt as he went through high school and college, his experiences working as a designer for a large consulting firm and then using that as a springboard to launch his own company.
We also havea very candid conversation of what it means to be a minority owned business, and some of the struggles that black owned businesses face vs. other businesses. Finally, he shares why he decided to keep his company a fully remote company, and what are some of the advantages that come from that structure.

Specifically, she talks about how she used internships to align organizational goals with the career aspirations of peers, and went to a model that partners with outside organizations and corporations to fund the development of the content.

Our guest today is Simon T Bailey, anAward-winning keynote speaker, coach, and author who spent his formative years working in the hospitality business, working for companies like Hyatt and Disney.
In our conversation, we discussed Simon’s approach to leadership and developing people and his fascinating journey. Simon’s story began as the classic American story – starting from the bottom of the ladder in the hospitality business, Simon built a career through commitment and hard work, until he had to take a hard turn. He shares a big mistake he made, and how that stopped his corporate career. His exact word are actually “I totally committed career suicide”.
But as often happens in these cases, crisis becomes a key turning point. Despite the fact he had secured a lucrative corporate offer, Simon decided to follow his passion for speaking in public, teaching and developing people and he bet on himself. The rest is easy to imagine.

Today's guest is Kelly Campbell, a former CEO turned Trauma-Informed Leadership Coach. She is also the author of Heal to Lead: Revolutionizing Leadership through Trauma Healing (Wiley), an inspired keynote speaker and a longtime conservationisttrained by Al Gore as a Climate Reality Leader in 2017.
In this candid and raw interview, Kelly discusses the intersection of personal trauma and professional leadership, and she sheds light on the profound ways that unresolved childhood experiences can shape our leadership styles.
It’s a show – don’t tell type of conversation. She shares the story of how she founded and built a successful digital marketing agency. Kelly talks about the success, but is not afraid to delve into her own leadership challenges which were sparked by a crisis at the tender age of nine.
Like all good stories it has a happy ending, as Kelly takes us through how these experiences led her to a journey of personal, spiritual and professional transformation, and ultimately informed her mission to guide leaders through their past to enhance their influence and effectiveness.

Some business expressions become so overused that they end up losing their meaning. At the end of every episode of Authentic Leadership for Everyday People I ask my guests what is the business jargon that drives them crazy.
It's a question that was designed to get to know them a little better, and maybe be a little irreverent. What I learned 140 episodes in is that the answers span the range from funny to surprising and sometimes deep, and very time they are really insightful.
So here is the 4th yearly anthology, covering guests who were on the podcast the second half of 2023.
