You can't find leadership in a book: Reflections of a leader with Leigh Martin

12/13/22 • 76 min

Some people talk the leadership talk. But when you lift the hood, there is misalignment with their say-do as they aren't walking the walk. In this episode, I interview my best friend of almost 50 years, Leigh Martin. Leigh and I lived, traveled, struggled, partied, and even fought together (stories for another episode!).
An authentic leader and individual with high values, Leigh walks the talk. He understands that leadership is not about title or degree. A master of storytelling to illustrate important points, Leigh provides several lessons that can help any leader, anywhere.

An Intellectually Honest Discussion about Punishment and CESS

Send us a text

In the episode, David Roth and I tackle the very controversial and sensitive topic of punishment and CESS. It is broken down into 3 sections: pre-show monologue, full episode, and post-show discussion about the ABC video that highlighted the unethical use of CESS at the Judge Rotenberg Center. Please listen to the episode in its entirety as we spiral back to key points throughout. Opting to listen to just one section would be like reading a book, but starting with a chapter midway through! We encourage respectful and solution-oriented dialogue in the comments sections wherever this is posted.
