Episode 7 - Drive By Metrics

The toughest conversations usually spark the best insights. After a tough conversation today, I realized: we’re tracking too much and learning too little. We’re data rich, information poor. In this Drive-By Excelerate, literally recorded frommy car in the parking lot, I couldn’t wait to share how to rebalance your dashboards — and why the right mix of leading and lagging indicators can change everything.

Ep 6 - Yagottawanna

There was a stitched sign that sat in my childhood home foryears. It said: “Yagottawanna.” At the time, I thought it was just a funny made-up word. Now I realize it’s one of the most powerful lessons in leadership — and life. “Yagottawanna” — you gotta wanna. Because motivation can’t be borrowed, forced, or handed out. It’s got to comefrom within. You can teach, coach, and guide — but if someone doesn’t wantit, none of it sticks. That’s true in business, leadership, and our personal lives too. The real test comes when things get hard. That’s when you find out what — and who — really wants it. In this week’s episode of Excelerate, I share how“Yagottawanna” shaped the way I lead and live. And why sometimes, the thing you don’t wanna do isthe perfect opportunity to delegate — because someone else just may wanna. 🎧 Tune in toExcelerate: Because trust me… you’re gonna wanna. #Leadership #Mentorship #Motivation #PurposeDriven#ExceleratePodcast

Ep 5 - Same but Opposite

Same but opposite. There are two powerful ways to drive performance: - Stacking small wins - start small, build momentum upward. - Breaking down big goals - starts with vision, break into achievable steps. They look similar, but they work in opposite directions. - One builds confidence and pace from the bottom up. - The other creates clarity and direction from the top down. Used together, they shrink the distance between where youare and where you want to be. In the latest Excelerate episode, we explore how stackingwins and breaking goals complement each other—and why you need both for breakthrough performance. Quick listen. Big takeaway.

In this episode of Excelerate, we dive into the often-overlooked connection between relationships and rules. Rules provide structure, guidance, and accountability—but it’s the quality of our relationships that determines how effectively those rules are embraced, interpreted, and lived out.
