In an age of algorithms, automations, and artificial intelligence, Michael Sacca is leading the company that is proud of their personal approach to connecting people working on projects with hand-picked, screened creative professionals in the mobile & web industry. 

Michael is full of leadership wisdom for every Founder & CEO. He is very candid about the challenges he experienced with his co-founder in his first startup and how it led to him to leave the company he started. He also shares some pretty specific advice to help you avoid similar circumstances.

Robby Mathis, Co-founder & Partner - The Robby Group

In the financial services world, any time I hear about organizations that are growing by another team member every 2 months, I take notice. This is especially true in the accounting, bookkeeping, and tax areas. Robby Mathis talks about the secret to growing his company and his own growth as a leader as he scales himself and The Robby Group. I think many of you can also relate to the fear he has about one component of business.

Today's Podcast:
 
Brad McNamara, CEO & Co-founder - Brad McNamara
 
Listeners of this show will probably notice that I have a bias toward Founding CEOs who mash up agriculture, real food, and technology to help all of us eat better and live healthier lives. I guess that is why I was eager to interview Brad on the podcast.

Brad and his team make it easier for any metropolitan area to create more entrepreneurs and more healthy food all year round without shipping food thousands of miles. And, as a leader, Brad speaks candidly about several important topics:

  1. He explains how he was able to let some things go as the company grew.
  2. He discusses his personal challenge around remaining emotionally connected to his team.
  3. He talks about Friday "AMA" (As Me Anything) meetings to increase engagement and reconnect everyone to the mission and values of the company.

Ryan Denehy, CEO & Founder - Electric AI

It was great to speak with a fellow Hofstra alum, Ryan Denehy, in this episode. Ryan was the youngest executive at the mighty media company, Gannett, when he decided strike out and become a Founder. His stories about founding SWARM Mobile and now Electric AI will really inspire because of the sacrifices he made to make both companies happen. What really impressed me in this interview was his big insight about the need for Founding CEOs to simply take the time to think through the direction of the company as it grows.
