1305: Build High-Performance Teams in 6 Simple Steps with Business Strategist, Author and mPulse CSO Jim Carlough

Leadership sounds simple in theory, but in reality, it’s a constant balancing act between vision, execution, and human dynamics. Teams lose motivation when they don’t feel heard, and growth stalls when leaders rely on surface-level strategies that don’t address deeper issues. The real challenge isn’t just making decisions—it’s creating an environment where people feel invested and capable of pushing forward. Without a clear, effective approach, even the best intentions can fall flat.

He has led companies through major transitions, tripled client bases, and executed corporate acquisitions. His book, The Six Pillars of Effective Leadership, offers a practical guide for leaders at all levels. Today, he breaks down his six leadership pillars, focusing on empathy, integrity, and strategic communication. He shares insights on building high-performing teams and navigating workplace challenges while fostering a supportive, people-first culture. Stay tuned!
