Overview

Tyler Chisholm sits down with Jayson Krause, executive coach and former national team bobsled athlete who has been coaching senior leaders since 2010. Jayson's thesis is simple: the leader with the fewest blind spots wins. Not the most experienced. Not the most credentialed. In this episode, he walks through the AIER framework he uses to build a leader's operating system, the CFO known as the grim reaper who rebranded his reputation inside six months, and the written-off employee who took home the biggest bonus of his career after one honest question. There is also a sharp conversation about why most values written on walls are aspirational at best, and what it actually costs a business when relational equity is the last thing being measured.
