About this listen
Employees who buy into a company’s purpose and goals are the key to driving sustainable bottom-line improvements. Here’s how to get lots of them.
Most leaders would love to get their people to do more than just show up and do only what’s asked. They want employees who also bring their best talents, ideas, and enthusiasm to accomplish what’s truly important to the organization. Unfortunately, most leaders have never been shown how to create a culture of genuine and sustainable buy-in. As a result, they miss out on the amazing advantages that widespread buy-in can deliver, including easier hiring, lower turnover, smarter strategies, and more consistent execution.
Dave Garrison is renowned for helping companies foster a culture of high engagement, even in the face of adversity or rapid expansion. In The Buy-In Advantage, he now offers a practical playbook that will help leaders in any industry or any size company get much better at:
- Recruiting and retaining the right talent.
- Tapping the collective genius of their people.
- Prioritizing the few things that really count, which prevents burnout.
- Solving problems without drama.
- And much more.
By sharing true stories from companies he’s led as a CEO and advised as a strategist, Garrison shows how to implement these strategies without significant cost, extra effort, or disruption to core activities. His approach leads to immediate improvements as well as long-term cultural change. The result is a powerful guide to building teams that get things done, care about outcomes, and solve problems on their own initiative.

Story
In the midst of a successful year, visionary CEO Gui Loureiro decided that Walmex—Walmart’s biggest division outside of the United States—needed to make massive changes to make the iconic company a more data-driven, customer-centric business that would be competitive in our digital economy. The stakes were high: no company the size of Walmex had ever attempted a transformation at such a magnitude of scale. Reinventing the Leader is the turbulent story of how it happened that’s especially relevant in this age of globalization.

Story
Having leverage—in the form of intelligence, charm, beauty, money, status, or insider knowledge—often gives you an advantage in an interaction.

In The Upper Hand human behavioral scientist and sought-after speaker, advisor, and coach Dr. Abbie Maroño shows you how to influence people and situations in your favor with skill and integrity—and without the need for leverage or coercion.

Plans change when Tuesday meets Ben Kelley, a wealthy, scowly, and movie-star-handsome stranger. He’s just missing one thing to make his professional dreams come true. What does Ben need?

Story
On average, companies controlled by men still earn twice the amount that female-owned businesses do. Despite growing opportunities for women-owned businesses to thrive, they still deliver consistently less revenue and profit compared to their male-owned counterparts. And when it comes time to sell a business, even highly successful women entrepreneurs are settling for less. Carrie Kerpen aims to change this with her simple yet revolutionary process of starting, scaling, and selling for success.

Story
Sophie wasn’t expecting to find love in Sicily. But then she sees him: Emilio, a professor who works at the university where she is teaching for the summer. He’s kind, intelligent, funny, exciting and deliriously unpredictable… …maybe perfect. But paradise quickly turns to purgatory as she uncovers the haunting disappearance of Emilio’s first wife. And when she senses a shadowy character following her, watching her every move, Sophie starts to question her grip on reality. Is she being paranoid, or is nothing about her new life really what it seems?
