In this episode of the Dynamic Business Leaders Podcast, host Roy Richardson welcomes John Will Tenney, co-founder of EmployerNomics, a nationally franchised HR brokerage, and a man whose career spans software engineering, professional music, commercial aviation, and business consulting.
John’s journey is anything but conventional. From flying planes to writing code, and now helping small to medium-sized business owners scale and succeed, he’s lived by his father’s advice: “You have to work for yourself—no one is ever going to pay you what you're worth.”
Roy and John explore:
- The winding path of a multi-industry entrepreneur
- Why defining success is personal and powerful
- The importance of ethics in business and life
- How health and charity work play into leadership
- Payroll risk management and HR strategy for SMBs
- John’s Wish Board of Advisors and what it reveals about his values
- Insights from his podcast, “I’m Calling HR”, available on YouTube
This episode is packed with golden nuggets for entrepreneurs, leaders, and anyone seeking clarity, purpose, and practical wisdom in business.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
