  • Resumen

  • The Leadership Equation Podcast is where real leaders have real conversations about what it truly takes to lead with purpose, courage, and authenticity.

    Hosted by Chris LaGarde and Steve Ciprani, this show dives beneath the surface of leadership success to explore the challenges business owners and leaders rarely talk about — burnout, hiring struggles, team culture breakdowns, decision fatigue, self-awareness gaps, and the loneliness of leadership.

    Whether you're running a small business with 5–50 employees, leading a fast-growing team, or simply hungry for leadership that doesn’t sacrifice humanity for performance, you'll find yourself at home here.

    Each week, we bring you honest conversations, practical insights, and vulnerable stories from experienced leaders and guests who share their hard-earned lessons—both their triumphs and their mistakes.

    Expect real talk on leadership development, building high-performing teams, workplace culture, hiring and retention, emotional intelligence, and how personal growth (and even faith) intersects with leadership.

    No fluff. No polished masks. Just authentic leadership, real growth, and hope for what’s possible when leaders choose to lead from wholeness.

    Subscribe today and join a growing community of leaders who are rewriting the rules—and building organizations that thrive.

    Podcast Release Notes: Leader Formula – Episode 1

    Episode Title: Defining Leadership: Starting from Within Hosts: Chris LaGarde & Steve Ciprani

    Episode Summary

    In this very first episode of The Leader Formula, Chris and Steve dive into one of leadership’s most foundational questions: What is leadership really? They explore personal definitions, where leadership begins (hint: it’s within you), and how your own self-awareness, purpose, and emotional intelligence shape the way you lead others. Expect honest conversation around the old debate of "are leaders born or made?", the importance of clarity and vision, and why leading yourself well is the first step to leading others effectively.

    If you're a business owner, team leader, entrepreneur—or just someone passionate about leading with authenticity—you’ll find plenty to reflect on and apply.
