Description

What does it really take to grow a business from your garage into an international company with 300+ employees… and then turn that experience into a career helping leaders build thriving cultures? 🚀

Dr. Julia Wiener takes Nick and Zach inside her journey from corporate life to co-founding one of Inc. Magazine's fastest-growing companies, and now leading JW Strategies. She shares how agility and quick pivots kept her business alive, why creating space to "fail fast" sparks innovation, and how subtle leadership behaviors can shape culture more than any words on a wall.

From navigating messy team mergers to scaling culture in high-growth environments, Julia brings stories, lessons, and a refreshing dose of honesty. Plus, she looks ahead at how AI is transforming the way we work and what leaders need to do to keep the human side of business strong. 🌟
