Ep 44 – Power Tip: "How to rebuild trust after you get it wrong", Jen Hamilton (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This Level 10 Leaders Power Tip is from Jen Hamilton of Hamilton COOs, on how to win back someone's trust after you have got it wrong. Jen's sequence has five parts: let them vent without cutting in, validate what they felt without necessarily agreeing, own the specific thing you did, apologise in a way that shows you understand the harm, then make a promise for something new. The step most people skip is the last one, deliberately checking back in so the other person can see the promise being k
Ep 43 – Why company values fail and behaviours work with Kyle McDowell (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Ryan Castle sits down with Kyle McDowell, author of the bestselling "Begin With WE" and a thirty year veteran of corporate America. Kyle led teams of 15,000 people and hated what he had become. His inner circle eventually told him the truth: they feared him more than they respected him. Kyle also explains the ten WEs, the observable behavioural standards he wrote the night before addressing 50 of his leaders, and why they succeed where corporate values fail. Plus the three part discipline that m
Ep 42 – Power tip: "Get the structure right from Day One", Gretchen Heinen (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This Level 10 Leaders Power Tip is from Gretchen Heinen, Founder and CEO of Authsnap Inc, drawn from her full episode, on getting the structure of a business right from day one.

A good attorney set up her cap table for the structure she would need five years out, so she could build from there. Founders go wrong, she says, by skipping that piece of the house.

Ep 41 – Why AI coaching fails without human intelligence with Mike Ashby (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Ryan Castle sits down with Mike Ashby, founder of The Breakthrough Co and Level 10 Leaders, on his latest Forbes piece about why AI coaching fails without human intelligence. Mike's argument is simple: AI coaches are a supplement, not a replacement. Content is only 10% of what changes behaviour. Mike also walks through the 10/20/70 model and why generic AI gets stuck in the 10, what the great training robbery costs organisations, and how they built Dr Mike AI to sit inside a human system rather
Ep 40 – Power tip: "Don't forget the person behind the skills," Alex Franklin (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This Level 10 Leaders Power Tip is from Alex Franklin of First Principles Consulting, sharing why the smallest piece of a large consulting project turned out to be the one that multiplied everything else. Alex's point is that we hire for technical competency, which is eligibility for the role, and forget behavioural competency, which is suitability for it: passion, interests, work preferences, interpersonal style. Working with a large mining client on process improvement, the change that made th
