  • Summary

  • With every election cycle, the noise grows louder—polls, predictions, and endless opinions from every direction. But how much of it is real, and how much is just noise? How can we think clearly and make decisions that serve us, our families, and our businesses? In this episode, Sanger Smith sits down with Ken Coleman to break down the true impact of elections beyond the headlines. They discuss why polling can be misleading, how the media shapes our perception of political events, and the importance of focusing on what we can control rather than getting swept up in the chaos. Ken offers insight into what strong leadership looks like in a time of deep division. KEY TOPICS How debates have turned into battlegrounds for insults instead of vision.Why identity politics is creating division—and how a lack of true identity is driving it.What it takes to bring integrity back to leadership when chaos becomes the norm.What companies can learn from political missteps when mission and culture stray too far apart.
