  • Teamwork, Alignment & Lasting Edge

    What felt especially generous about this conversation is how you let an investment leader tell a story that connects discipline, character, and real-world experience, from the rink to managing capital, without ever reducing it to jargon. Lane’s emphasis on alignment and durable advantage isn’t just about markets; it’s about how people carry their principles into decisions that matter. Listeners walk away with something they can actually use: a reminder that the hardest-earned insights are often ... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Best of Habit Formation: Katy Milkman
Q: What is the core obstacle to change and how do you frame it for action?
The core obstacle is identifying the specific barrier in a given situation, whether it's impulsivity, forgetting, or laziness, and then tailoring a strategy to address that exact obstacle rather than applying a one-size-fits-all solution.
Best of Habit Formation: James Clear
Q: I want to turn to the book. Habits is an interesting thing because it's part of who we are, but we don't think about it. How would you define a habit?
A habit is a behavior that's repeated enough times to be automatic, and you can also view it as a solution to recurring problems in your environment; the combination of these perspectives helps you understand and shape habits rather than be controlled by them.
Best of Negotiations: Chris Voss
Q: What is your approach to teaching people how to move the ball forward in negotiations?
Teach people to de-escalate, build rapport, and use small, precise linguistic tools—like mirroring and labeling—to elicit information and shape decisions without triggering defensiveness.
Best of Negotiations: Chris Voss
Q: How did you transition from hostage negotiation to business negotiation and what remains most effective in coaching people in the business world?
The core skills—active listening, mirroring, labeling, and summarizing—remain effective, but they are adapted to business contexts with a calmer, data-informed tone and a focus on deactivating negatives before moving forward.
Best of Negotiations: Chris Voss
Q: If you wanted to catch someone's attention in a really short period of time, how would you go about doing that?
Use a quick, authentic icebreaker with a simple, credible introduction and a concise read on the other party's state, then engage with a calm, curious approach to invite dialogue.
