About podcast

The Mind Behind

On The Mind Behind, we explore what real, everyday leadership looks like with leaders who are unique, influential, engaging, and have that extra something. We get below the surface and ask the questions you want answered. We get to the heart of what’s worked, what hasn’t, and what makes the difference. We look at what’s happening now and gain insights into what’s next. One thing for sure, we encourage opinions.

Listen in for open conversations, honest insights, new ideas, and a bit of fun.
