Summary

This first release of 2026 features talent guru, coach, and leadership team expert, Mike Goldman, who played a formative role in Mike Weinberg's life on a college campus 39 years ago! Goldman's most recent book, The Strength of Talent , is a USA Today National Bestseller, and packed with wisdom and practical advice for sales leaders. In this engaging dialogue, Mike and Mike touch on everything from the stupidity of annual performance reviews, to the importance of re-recruiting our highest performers. Listen in as Goldman challenges leaders who declare "our people are our most valuable asset," when their actions belie that statement and he makes the compelling case that the #1 driver of profit (and sales) growth is people growth!
