What if motivation isn't something people are born with, but something that can be influenced, shaped, and sustained? In this episode, Kevin is joined by Matt Granados to challenge common leadership myths about motivation. Matt reveals a powerful formula for creating sustainable motivation through personal connection, structured systems, and self-awareness. He explores the critical distinction between love-based and fear-based leadership, explains how three simple weekly questions can transform team engagement, and helps leaders identify individual motivation catalysts, including freedom, acknowledgment, connectivity, and support.
Matt's Story: Matt Granados is a two-time #1 international bestselling author. His latest book is Motivate the Unmotivated: A Proven System for Sustainable Motivation. He is the founder and CEO of Life Pulse Inc., where he helps organizations fix people problems by solving process problems, once and for all. His Life Pulse Methodology equips leaders and teams to achieve Optimal Performance—the highest sustainable output aligned with human potential. Matt first validated this approach by transforming a Craigslist-hired crew into a $40 million sales team. Since then, companies like Google, Twitter, and the U.S. Air Force have used his system to reduce burnout, increase retention, and engineer culture
