Episode 050: Dr. Henry Cloud – Ridiculously In Charge
I originally sent a cold email to Henry Cloud in February asking him to be one of the first guests on my podcast, The Learning Leader Show. I am extremely happy that after 7 months of work (a lot of emails/calls/scheduling), we made it happen! I’m extremely proud of this, and I was especially happy to hear the kind words Henry shared about The Learning Leader Show and what it stands for.
Having sold over 10 million books worldwide, Dr. Cloud’s work has been featured or reviewed in publications such as the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Boston Globe, Publisher’s Weekly, Los Angeles Times, Forbes, Fortune and many others. He is a frequent contributor to multiple news programs including CNN, Fox News Channel, ABC News and has a syndicated radio show in over 200 markets. Two of his premier books are: “Integrity: The Courage to Meet the Demands of Reality” and “Boundaries for Leaders: Results, Relationships, and being Ridiculously in Charge.”
Dr. Cloud has maintained an extensive leadership consulting practice for over twenty years, serving clients ranging from private and family held firms to public Fortune 500 Companies. Combining a background in clinical psychology and organizational leadership consulting with the experience of having founded and operated a successful health-care company, he brings an experience base which gives him a deep insight into how leaders function and the challenges they face.

And third, performance: how we use our talents to achieve our dreams and goals. His wide range of experience as a clinician directing a chain of hospitals and treatment centers, as a coach and performance consultant to celebrities, high performers, and business leaders, and as a student and advisor of the spiritual life, give him a breadth of background and knowledge to address the major issues of life, with practical, sound, research-proven techniques to help people resolve difficult obstacles and reach their purpose, calling and dreams.

Episode 048: Cameron Herold – Why You Should Teach Your Child To Be An Entrepreneur
This episode was absolutely packed full of action oriented takeaways to help us all improve in each of our environments. I love the strategy Cameron has employed to teach children to be entrepreneurs as well as his strategies to grow a number of businesses…
Cameron Herold has been instrumental in the successful sale, branding, and integration of a remarkable 500 business locations with three major companies. He may be best known as a driving force behind 1-800-GOT JUNK’s spectacular growth from $2 Million to $106 Million in revenue in just six years.
His wide range of executive roles has given him expertise across all aspects of business, from strategic planning, operations, people, sales, marketing, call centers and PR. Combined with hands-on experience negotiating corporate acquisitions and developing numerous strategic partnerships, there are few real-world business challenges he hasn't faced.
Now, as the author of “Double Double”, Cameron mentors a select class of proven CEOs, entrepreneurs and their teams, helping them navigate growth, leadership, and building their own unique company cultures. He reaches an even broader audience through his content-driven presentations to groups of entrepreneurs, speaking in over twenty countries, on five continents, in just five years. Cameron is a top-rated lecturer at the EO/MIT Entrepreneurial Masters Program and a powerful and effective speaker at EO/YPO & Vistage events around the world. Additionally, he landed over 5,000 media placements in six years - including coverage on Oprah, New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Inc. Magazine, Fast Company, Fortune and 17 spots on Dr. Phil.

Episode 047: David Marquet – Turn The Ship Around! Going From Worst To First
This episode was absolutely packed full of action oriented takeaways to help us all improve in each of our environments. I love the strategy David has employed to empower and grow leaders… You’ll learn about his thought process on leadership in the Navy and in the civilian world as well.
David realized that the leader-follower environment meant his crew would do anything he said—even if it was wrong. That could be catastrophic. He decided to try Intent-Based Leadership again.
Captain Marquet began treating his crew as leaders, not followers, and giving control, not taking control. It wasn’t long before operations took a dramatic turn. Santa Fe went from “worst to first,” achieving the highest retention and operational standings in the Navy.
When Stephen R. Covey spent time aboard the Santa Fe, he referred to it as the most empowering organization he’d ever seen. He wrote about Captain Marquet’s leadership practices in his book, The 8th Habit.
Captain David Marquet retired from the Navy in 2009 and is now the author of Turn the Ship Around! A True Story of Turning Followers Into Leaders. Fortune magazine called the book the “best how-to manual anywhere for managers on delegating, training, and driving flawless execution.” Captain Marquet’s Intent-Based Leadership model is turning around all types of organizations—from big manufacturers to start-ups and sport teams to government.
He helps leaders build environments where people contribute and feel valued —where everyone is a leader.

David was selected to captain the USS Olympia (SSN-717), a nuclear powered attack submarine. He studied for over a year to take command, understanding on a deep level every detail of how that submarine operated.
Unexpectedly, David was diverted to take command of the USS Santa Fe (SSN-763) when its captain quit. Santa Fe was the worst performing submarine in the fleet and a different type of submarine that he knew little about.

Episode 045: Chris Fussell – Gun Fights To Board Rooms: The Similarities In War And Business
Chris Fussell is an incredible learning leader. Truly on another level when it comes to work ethic, grit, and intelligence. I was absolutely honored to have this conversation with him… And even more proud to now call him a friend.
Chris Fussell is the Chief Business Development Officer at McChrystal Group, leading the sales, marketing, and client relations teams. He and his team are responsible for identifying and growing McChrystal Group’s network and client base, and for positioning CrossLead as a 21st century leadership model and globally-recognized brand. Chris is an author of the firm’s forthcoming management book, Team of Teams: New Rules of Engagement in a Complex World.
Chris was commissioned as a Naval Officer in 1997, and spent the next 15 years on US Navy SEAL Teams, leading SEAL elements in combat zones around the globe. From war-torn Kosovo, to counter-terrorism operations in Iraq and Afghanistan, to highly specialized efforts in the troubled areas of the Arabian Peninsula and North Africa, he experienced the modern evolution of the US military’s Special Operations community, first on SEAL Teams Two and Eight, then in the Naval Special Warfare Development Group.
Chris was selected to serve as Aide-de-Camp to then-Lieutenant General Stanley McChrystal during General McChrystal’s final year commanding the Joint Special Operations Command (JSOC), where they served a year together in Iraq. He witnessed first-hand the Special Operations community’s transformation into a successful, agile network.

Episode 044: John LeFevre - @GSElevator: This Episode Might Offend You
This episode is different from any other I’ve recorded for The Learning Leader Show. Turney Duff describes my guest best for CNBC: “In some memoirs, the author tries to pull back the curtain to provide a glimpse into a particular time and place, but LeFevre attempts to rip the drapes right off. He gives a naked look at how business in the world of finance is conducted. LeFevre captures the "Glengarry Glen Ross"-type of attitude that some believe is required to be successful on Wall Street. He doesn't shy away from witnessing and partaking in some of the seedier antics of sharing non-public information, price-fixing, misogyny, drug use and good old-fashion cut-throat office politics.”
John LeFevre created the Goldman Sachs Elevator Twitter account (@GSElevator) as a parody of banking culture. He tweeted anonymously for years as he gained hundreds of thousands of followers with his notoriously outrageous and often offensive tweets. He was eventually revealed as the author of the account. That Twitter account propelled him to earn a six figure book deal titled, “Straight to Hell: True Tales of Deviance, Debauchery, and Billion-Dollar Deals.”

Episode 043: Philip McKernan – Living A Meaningful Life: Being Transparent & Authentic
Philip McKernan is one of the most interesting human beings I’ve ever met. Philip had no fear in challenging my beliefs and even some of the ways I asked him questions during this conversation. I absolutely loved it. After we stopped recording, Philip gave me an impromptu coaching session (for 45 minutes) to help me prepare for a speech I have coming up. He said, “Think about what that audience needs to hear… And tell them that.” It was incredible. I am so grateful to now call Philip a friend.
Philip speaks around the world about the importance of overcoming personal obstacles, gaining clarity, and cultivating the confidence to believe in yourself. He has shared stages with some well-known speakers…Steven Covey, Richard Branson, the Dalai Lama to name a few, and the feedback is generally overwhelmingly positive. Through live personal leadership experiences, he has worked with all sorts of people from housewives to Olympic athletes, TV personalities and entrepreneurs, people who’ve gone bankrupt to billionaires and everything in between, and he’s uncovered that people’s dysfunctional relationship to money and their inability to get in touch with their own deep intuition inhibits their ability to gain the authentic clarity they need to live an authentic, and meaningful life. His book is Adversaries into Allies: Win People over without Manipulation or Coercion.

Philip’s greatest skill is listening – although many would say it’s talking – his ability to pinpoint your deepest want or need is precisely what makes him so sought after. He cares deeply for people, and believes each of us has so much more within us, than we allow ourselves to see and therefore shine.
Philip loves the simple things in life, his wife, 2 kids, extended family, friends and spending time with himself! He loves to travel, having visited well over 70 countries around the globe for work and pleasure. He’s a keen golfer, likes to hike and loves to get out in nature, especially in his home country, Ireland. He moved to Canada in 2007 and currently resides in Vancouver.
With a knack of getting into all sorts of scenarios – he’s caddied in golf for the President of Ireland, been chased and nearly killed by a bull elephant in Nigeria, made wine in Australia, has worked with orphans in Sri Lanka and Guatemala, written 4 books despite being dyslexic – this list is endless….his wife would say “life is never dull with Philip around”.
Philip believes the path to a happy and fulfilling life is found through the meaning we derive in life through the WORK we do, our relationship to OTHERS and the most important relationship of all, the one with one’s SELF.
Philip’s soul focus is helping people create a life that means something and make money doing it.
