Discover the pivotal moments that shape effective leadership as Ben Law, affectionately known as the Financial Bloke, opens up about the trials and triumphs of his career. This episode serves as your gateway to understanding the nuanced art of hiring and the critical importance of aligning values within a team. Ben, with his wealth of experience as a financial advisor and podcaster, shares a powerful narrative of his worst leadership blunder, delving into the repercussions of compromising on hiring principles. His tale is a stark reminder that the decisions we delay may define our professional landscape more than the ones we eagerly embrace.

The conversation then shifts towards the often-overlooked practice of values-based decision-making, where Ben and I dissect the complex dance of handling discordant client relationships. Drawing on the profound insights of thinkers like Jordan Peterson, we discuss the perilous cost of shirking tough dialogues in business. You’re invited to absorb Ben’s seasoned perspective on assembling a team that resonates with your company’s ethos, fostering a culture steeped in honesty, and mastering time management. Join us for an enriching session that promises to leave you with actionable lessons for cultivating leadership that is as resilient as it is empathetic.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
