New managers don’t usually set out to become toxic. They don’t wake up, sip their coffee, and say, “Today, I shall destroy team morale before lunch.” But it happens.
In this episode of Experience Leadership, Marc sits down with Paul Leon, host of The Manager’s Mic Podcast, to explore the accidental habits that kill rapport between managers and their ...
Most organizations are sitting on a gold mine of untapped talent—and they don’t even know it.
Employees feel boxed in. Managers are overwhelmed. HR can’t possibly uncover every hidden skill, curiosity, or ambition inside the building. The result? Motivated people slowly disengage… not because they lack drive, but because they don’t see ...
Most organizations don’t have a retention problem… they have a misdirected growth problem.
In this episode of Marc Haine Live, we tackle one of the most misunderstood—and expensive—leadership challenges in business today: why the wrong people leave, and the wrong people stay.

In this episode of Marc Haine Live, Marc sits down with Scott Abbott, founder, CEO, executive coach, and 4X best-selling author, to unpack how leaders can build, run, and scale a great company—while still living a fulfilling life.

Most businesses don’t fail because they make one big mistake. They fail because they slowly drift.

In this episode of Marc Haine Live, I sit down with Growth Advisor Kevin Lawrence to unpack why com...
Most businesses think PR means getting featured in the media.
And that misunderstanding is costing them thousands.
In this episode of Experience Leadership, Marc sits down with public relations expert Steve Turner to unpack the real role of PR—and why most companies get it completely wrong.
If you’ve ever invested in publicity, hired a PR firm, or tried to &ld...
Most leaders are stuck… not because they lack talent, but because they’re too busy managing today to design tomorrow.
They’re optimizing processes, tweaking systems, and sitting in back-to-back meetings—while the future of their business quietly drifts further out of reach.

Every business leader knows people eventually retire.
What most leaders don’t realize is that when someone walks out the door… they take decades of experience, relationships, judgment, and cultural memory with them.
And most organizations aren’t ready for that moment.
In this episode of Marc Haine Live, I sit down with Dr. Andi Sim...
Hybrid work was supposed to be the silver bullet. Instead, it turned into a rubber band—stretching teams thin, snapping collaboration, and leaving leaders holding the pieces. While organizations rushed into “flexibility,” they forgot to redesign the one thing holding their culture together: the office.

What happens when disaster strikes your business?
Flood. Cyberattack. System failure. Security threat.
Most organizations believe they’re prepared because they have a disaster plan. But when a real emergency happens, something unexpected occurs: people freeze.
This phenomenon—known as the bystander effect—can paralyze organiza...
Why do customers leave—even when they say they’re satisfied?
Here’s the uncomfortable truth: satisfaction isn’t loyalty. And in today’s marketplace, frustration isn’t a surprise anymore… it’s expected.
In this episode of Experience Leadership, I sit down with globally recognized customer experience expert David Avrin, au...
Struggling to retain top talent?
In this episode of Marc Haine Live, Growth Leader Rick Denley reveals why courageous leadership is the missing piece in attracting, engaging, and retaining high-performing teams. Only 44% of employees are fully engaged at work. That means most teams are underperforming — and many leaders don’t even realize it.
In this conversation, you’l...
Most business owners are exhausted—not because they’re lazy, but because they’re trying to carry a business that was never designed to support them.
In this episode of Marc Haine Live, Canada’s Small Business Professor Brad Poulos explains why many of the problems owners obsess over aren’t real problems at all—and why stepping back c...
Most leaders think their impact comes from intelligence, experience, or authority.
And that belief is quietly costing them trust, momentum, and results.

Hard work isn’t broken—but it won’t fix a broken bottleneck.

Marketing is officially broken — and it’s costing businesses tens of thousands of dollars they don’t even know they’re wasting.
If your customer acquisition costs have skyrocketed, your SEO traffic has tanked, your Meta ads cost more than your last vacation, and your team is drowning in a dozen disconnected tactics… you’re not alone. And — spoil...
Most leaders don’t lose deals because they say the wrong thing. They lose them because they misread the room.
🛎 In this episode of Marc Haine Live, I sit down with communication strategist Jake Stahl, the creator of Neurostrategy, to unpack why conversations stall, follow-ups die, and meetings that feel “great” somehow go nowhere.

They work harder. Sell more. Grind longer. Yet profits feel slippery, savings are “someday,” and financial stress hums quietly in the background—like a fridge that never stops buzzing.
