In this Mike on the Mic episode, I dive into the real reason why so many great strategies fail. Drawing from my early years as a consultant and decades of leadership coaching, I share why the #1 driver of profit growth isn’t strategy, technology, or process—it’s people growth. I’ll walk you through the Talent Profit Cycle, explain why one superstar can outperform three mediocre performers, and highlight the many inadequacies in traditional performance management. This episode kicks off a three-part series leading up to the launch of my new book, The Strength of Talent: How to Grow Your People to Grow Your Profit.
