"How do I get people bought into my vision?"

Written by Alan Whitman

Hey there,

Trying something different this week...

Jay Doran had me back on his show, The Culture Matters Podcast, and I've got to tell you, it was one of my favorite podcast conversations I've done.

I think I could have invoiced him $10k for the interview... there was that much valuable discussion.

Don't worry, I didn't actually invoice Jay for it... Actually, maybe he should have invoiced me for the great questions...

This podcast was essentially a 46-minute masterclass on leading an organization, communicating effectively as a CEO, and navigating common growth obstacles.

To hear the full conversation with Jay, you can listen on Spotify or Apple podcasts. It's well worth the 46 minutes.

With intention,
Alan D Whitman
