Keynote speaker, Customer Success Coach and Podcast Host Bob Mathers is warning all of us not to fall into the trap of thinking everyone else but yourself in your organization, industry and social media has all the answers. In talking to some of the most successful business leaders in the world, Bob discovered something fascinating. "They're riddled with the same insecurities and fears as the rest of us." This gap between perception and reality is killing authentic leadership. Bob advocates for the "three-legged stool" for every major leadership decision: Is it good for the company? Is it good for the team? Is it good for me? "If we can't find a positive for all three legs of that stool, we need to keep looking for a solution." Even with all the change and uncertainty an AI world brings, Bob reminds us to remember our humanity. "Maybe it's as simple as just being human, leaning into tht things AI will never be. It will never be curious. It will never be vulnerable and never be creative." Walk your talk as a leader. Your team is always watching, looking for alignment between what you say and how you act. Once you lose that trust, it is nearly impossible to win back. This episode has been sponsored by Meter. Head to meter.com/marketimpact to learn more.

Techstars Vice President, Marketing Andrea Palten refused to play a role that wasn't true to her authentic self. Once she fully committed to bringing her home self to work, everything changed with happier teams, her best campaigns and most meaningful impact. Andrea continuously grows through three key insights: you're probably not that special (and that's okay), your first customers aren't customers (hint: they're everything) and kindness isn't soft, it's strategic. And in the world of startups, it's all about getting back to the basics. "You have to build the foundation before you scale. You cannot start building bricks without a foundation." Andrea sees AI leveling the playing field, enabling entrepreneurs with little budget to actually compete. And through it all, remember that "done beats perfect."
