Welcome to the Charismatic Leader Podcast.

In this episode, Brett McDermott sits down with Ron Tite, founder and Chief Strategy Officer of Church+State, one of Canada’s fastest‑growing agencies helping brands navigate the intersection of advertising and authentic content. Ron is also a globally recognized keynote speaker known for his sharp insights on leadership, creativity, and communication.

Together, Brett and Ron dive into his Think, Do, Say framework—a practical tool for leaders to align beliefs, actions, and communication. They explore why authenticity isn’t about perfection, but about being comfortable with your imperfections, and how leaders can avoid the “stock photo” version of leadership that erodes trust. Ron also shares how leaders can balance efficiency with creativity, turn complex data into compelling stories, and reignite disengaged teams by asking the right questions.

This conversation is packed with actionable insights for leaders who want to inspire trust, foster innovation, and communicate with genuine impact.
