Dave Stachowiak· Host0:00

If you build a great organization, the predators will come. But with the right principles in place, not only can you protect what you love, but help many people flourish because of it. In this episode, how to do just that. This is Coaching for Leaders, episode seven hundred eighty-four. [upbeat music] Produced by Innovate Learning, maximizing human potential. [upbeat music] Greetings to you from Orange County, California. This is Coaching for Leaders, and I'm your host, Dave Stovall. Leaders aren't born, they're made, and this weekly show helps leaders thrive at key inflection points. All of us know of an organization, a business that we loved and did incredible things in our community, or maybe it's a larger brand that we really loved and appreciated, and then it took a turn for some reason. An investor came in, a private equity firm purchased it, and all of a sudden it wasn't the same. And there's so much that we can do as leaders that can help protect something that's really special in the organizations that we've grown. Today, a conversation about how to look at that in a different way and how to reframe some of the language we often think about in organizations in a way that helps protect great things to help us all flourish even more. I'm so pleased to welcome to the show Eric Ries. Eric is the creator
