You can follow your heart, discover how life works, be happy, and bounce back from hard times. It’s easier than you might imagine.
Author and illustrator Andrew Matthews breaks it all down in his cheerful and insightful books, which have sold more than 8 million copies and inspired audiences at more than 1,000 international companies.
Andrew’s forte is presenting timeless wisdom in fresh, engaging ways. Each of his uplifting books is peppered with lovable, hand-drawn cartoons.
Andrew is based in Queensland, Australia, where his wife Julie serves as his books’ publisher.
On this episode, Andrew shares invaluable lessons for businesses and individuals alike:
Big things can happen to small, out-of-the-way businesses when they have inspired concepts.
To succeed, a company doesn’t have to be first to market. It can observe what’s working and improve on it.
There is a large, hungry appetite for simple solutions to complex problems.
Whether it’s finding resilience in setbacks, taking small steps to overcome big challenges, or packaging ideas in ways that resonate with customers, Andrew’s lessons are universally applicable.

The client is reclining on a plush leather couch in a softly lit office, the wall adorned with framed degrees and certificates of expertise in psychology.
“Tell me what’s troubling you?” the therapist inquires.
“Profits are down. Our employees are unhappy. And I don’t know where I should be going.”
This imaginary client is not a person but a business. However, the therapist is real. Dr. Nikki Blacksmith is a practitioner of industrial-organizational psychology who uses data analysis to help companies diagnose the business personality traits that are preventing them from achieving their goals.
Dr. Blackstone is the co-founder and CEO of Blackhawke Behavior Science and an adjunct faculty member at American University in Washington, D.C. She is the co-author with Dr. Maureen E. McCusker of Data-Driven Decision Making in Entrepreneurship: Tools for Maximizing Human Capital.

In addition, she emphasizes the importance of using data to make informed decisions in entrepreneurship.

Our guest this week is Richard Behar, an award-winning investigative reporter who spent 15 years chronicling the life of Bernie Madoff, the mastermind behind the largest Ponzi scheme in history.
Behar is the author of the newly released blockbuster book Madoff: The Final Word.
Before Madoff died in prison, Behar and Madoff had more than 50 phone conversations, exchanged more than 300 emails, and met face-to-face three times.
When Madoff was arrested in December 2008, his decades-long scam unraveled, revealing approximately $68 billion in purported assets across nearly 5,000 client accounts. In stark contrast, Madoff had less than $300 million, having swindled countless victims, including banks, charities, colleges, pension funds, and notable individuals such as Steven Spielberg, Sandy Koufax, Kevin Bacon, and Nobel laureate Elie Wiesel.
On this week’ episode, Behar shares how Madoff sustained his scam for decades, the many people who facilitated his fraud, why his investors were so gullible, and what steps everyone should take to avoid falling victim to swindlers.
As an exclusive bonus, listeners will hear two short private phone conversations between Behar and Madoff, recorded during Madoff’s incarceration at a federal prison in Butner, North Carolina.
Behar, honored as one of the top 100 business journalists of the 20th century, has received more than 20 major journalism awards. He previously worked on the staff of Forbes, Time, and Fortune. He also contributed reporting to CNN, PBS, and the BBC.
If you believe you could never be tricked like thousands of Madoff’s trusting investors were, you need to listen closely to this week’s episode.

This week’s guest, Dean Guida, founder and CEO of Infragistics, has plenty of grit.
But as he’s discovered on his way to bootstrapping a company that today serves 100% of the S&P 500, including Bank of America, Exxon, Fidelity, Intuit, and Morgan Stanley — to win in business, you also need:
Strategic planning
A positive and collaborative company culture
Reliable data that informs your decision-making
And non-stop learning
Dean launched his business in 1989 when he was only 23 years old. Today, his enterprise software company operates in six countries and serves more than two million software developers. And he’s done it all without a cent of venture capital.
Dean’s expertise is highly technical, but his new book, When Grit is Not Enough: An Entrepreneur’s Playbook for Taking Your Business to the Next Level, makes it easy for any business leader to understand how to grow a business from the ground up and compete against larger, better-funded competitors.
