In this kickoff episode of Why Not: Lead Like People Matter, we dive into the first leadership mantra: 📌 You Don’t Need the Shark.
It’s a story about sunk costs, broken plans, and the magic that happens when leaders stop waiting for the perfect tool, approval, or fix—and start building with what they’ve got. Inspired by the behind-the-scenes chaos of Jaws, this episode explores what happens when the big idea breaks... and something better shows up in its place.
Host Ryan Sailstad—creator of the Caird Method—is joined by co-hosts Rory Sylvia (creator of the RIDE Framework) and Nicole Eisdorfer (behavioral researcher and HR philosopher) for a conversation about smart pivots, leadership improvisation, and why the plan isn’t the point—the people are.
