Most companies don’t collapse from competitors—they implode from the inside. Leadership either raises the bar or clings to mediocrity like it’s a security blanket. In this episode of the Midway Business Podcast, Butch Zemar dives into why too many executives celebrate shaving 4% off renewals (while torching $400K in waste), and why “normal” has quietly become code for “we’re bleeding cash.”
From Steve Jobs refusing limits, to NHL goalies finally wearing masks, to scuba divers moving from bicycle pumps to actual air tanks—progress happens when leaders stop settling. The same goes for benefits. Sticking with the status quo isn’t safe; it’s expensive.
Tune in to hear how moderation is for cowards, mediocrity is a money pit, and why your benefits strategy deserves more than “we survived another renewal.”
