Amplifying Impact

Most leadership advice sounds great in theory but falls apart in practice. Host Mark Watkins brings decades of field-tested leadership systems from the hospitality industry, where results are measured in real-time, directly to business leaders who are tired of leaving leadership development to chance.

Each episode breaks down proven frameworks, providing you with practical tools that you can implement immediately. No motivational fluff, just systematic approaches that have been refined under pressure and proven across industries. Because great leadership doesn't happen naturally, it happens systematically.
