The E1B2 Collective PodcastTeam Design in Motion: Trust, Talent, and the Final CutIn this quick-hit, post-gym episode of The E1B2 Collective Podcast, AJ dives into a fiery reflection on team design—not from a textbook, but from the trenches. What happens when mid-level talent is given final-cut authority on critical business initiatives? What kind of organizational trust, hiring rigor, and design precision does that require?From salary bands as status signals to internal employee branding and lightning-fast decision-making, AJ unpacks the beautiful chaos of decentralized ownership. This one’s for the leaders who aren’t afraid of a little discomfort if it means unlocking velocity, innovation, and deep employ...2025-08-0604 minThe E1B2 Collective PodcastThe New Playbook: AI, Talent, and the Future BenchAJ takes the wheel and drives straight into the future of work. In this episode of The E1B2 Collective Podcast, he unpacks the five priorities every SVP of Talent, CHRO, and small-team leader should obsess over right now—no old playbooks, no stale data. We’re talking AI-powered talent acquisition, the brutal truth of retaining high performers in a volatile market, and why succession planning can no longer be an annual conversation. AJ dives into how leaders must continuously rescope roles, anticipate where the business will be in 18 months, and brag (yes, brag) about how AI is shaping thei...2025-07-2821 minThe E1B2 Collective PodcastTrust, Transformation, and the Future of Work with Michael C.

Over the weekend, a few old mentors threw some soul-shifting questions my way, and today, I’m passing that energy to you.We unpack why too many leaders still don’t understand that culture is strategy, not a side project. I go deep on the operational rhythms — shared language, cadence, and internal clarity — that actually build culture in scaling teams. No theory, just real frameworks.We also explore a brutal truth: many leaders are lying to themselves about how strong...2025-07-2110 minThe E1B2 Collective PodcastWho Gets to Lead?In this sharp, soul-baring episode of The E1B2 Collective Podcast, AJ cracks open a question that haunts boardrooms and investor decks alike: who actually deserves the seat at the head of Sales, Product, or Marketing in 2025?This isn't your standard leadership debate. AJ dives deep into the pivotal, behind-the-scenes decisions that define whether a company scales, stalls, or sells its soul. From Series B startups clawing toward survival, to pre-IPO behemoths managing time zones and politics—he explores why leadership readiness isn't about tenure or legacy, but about agility, research-mindedness, and cultural resonance in this exact mo...2025-07-0112 minThe E1B2 Collective PodcastCulture over Quota: From Closer to Catalyst - Rethinking Career Paths in Sales OrgsIn this unfiltered episode of The E1B2 Collective, I talk about something too many revenue leaders miss: career mapping for AEs who don’t fit the traditional mold. Not every seller is a closer—but that doesn’t mean they aren’t valuable. Some build trust. Some extend customer lifetime value. Some become the bridge to new markets, new partners, and long-term growth.I’ve seen too many talented AEs mismanaged, undervalued, and pushed out because they didn’t meet a narrow definition of success. This episode is a call to rethink how we design sales orgs—with le...2025-06-2913 minThe E1B2 Collective PodcastLearning Is Revenue: How L&D Can Transform Sales Cultures w/ Alex CawthonIn this top-tier episode of The E1B2 Collective Podcast, AJ Vaughan sits down with Alex Cawthon a Director of Learning and Development - for a deeply reflective and practical conversation that shatters traditional silos between L&D and sales.This isn’t your standard HR chat.

He explores the seductive myth of internal DIY transformation, the overlooked power of psychological safety, and the real reason your team might be stuck in the mud.AJ challenges HR leaders and executives to rethink how they budget for capability-building—not just execution. He dives deep into the ROI of b...2025-06-1609 minThe E1B2 Collective PodcastWhere Paper Ends and People Begin w/ Dominique Lelonek : Building Immigration with HeartIn this soul-stirring episode of The E1B2 Collective Podcast, we sit down with Dominique Lelonek—a rare kind of leader who doesn’t just manage immigration… she humanizes it.Dominique, named one of the Top 250 Women in Global Mobility, brings a profound mix of operational brilliance and deep empathy to every conversation.

I’m talking about that critical layer between individual contributors and senior leadership—managers to directors—the ones tasked with execution, but rarely trained for transformation.We explore what it means to not just get the work done, but to understand how it gets done—and more importantly, how it feels to get it done. It’s one thing to hit deliverables; it’s another to read the room, decode team dyna...2025-06-0615 minThe E1B2 Collective PodcastStop Asking for Loyalty You Haven’t EarnedThis one’s a rant with receipts.We’re breaking down why putting employees first isn’t some soft HR pipedream—it’s a hard business advantage. From retention and innovation to resilience and revenue, this episode unpacks the brutal truth: if you treat your people like widgets, they’ll give you just enough to not get fired. But if you lead with empathy, context, and purpose—they'll build a damn empire with you.I’ll break down real ROI:Why psychological safety beats ping pong tablesHow trust outpaces micromanagement in performance m...2025-05-3014 minThe E1B2 Collective PodcastRethinking Workforce Planning from the Inside OutIn this episode of E1B2 , we dismantle the outdated, spreadsheet-driven approach to workforce planning and rebuild it around what really matters: the humans doing the work. We explore how great companies don’t just forecast headcount — they forecast humanity. You’ll hear why workforce planning should be rooted in life stages, skill evolutions, and emotional truths — not just business cycles and budgets. We’ll unpack how shifting this lens creates more resilient teams, more trust-filled cultures, and ultimately, better business results. This is for the CHROs, Heads of People, and operators ready to plan for people, not just positions...2025-05-2208 minThe E1B2 Collective PodcastBuilt to Last: The Ronnie Fieg Standard of Culture + ProductIn a world chasing volume, Ronnie Fieg chose impact.

Hero-selling, static playbooks, vanity metrics, fear-based cultures—these habits are deeply ingrained, but dangerously outdated.AJ unpacks how today’s most progressive sales leaders are rewiring their leadership to thrive in 2025 and beyond—ditching assumptions, leaning into real buyer data, building systems that scale beyond themselves, and creating teams fueled by curiosity, safety, and relevance.If you’re ti...2025-05-1418 minThe E1B2 Collective PodcastCulture Over Quota: The E1B2 Sales Leadership Series 001Revenue is the result—but what drives it?

What if 15% of your best alumni came back stronger, sharper, and more aligned? We explore how forward-thinking companies are re-engaging former employees through authentic storytelling, high-frequency employer branding, and re-onboarding strategies built for growth—not nostalgia. If you believe in trust as a talent magnet and culture as a comeback story, this one’s for you.2025-04-3016 minThe E1B2 Collective PodcastNext-Gen Disruptors: Redefining HR from the Inside OutWhat’s up, E1B2 famToday’s episode is personal.

These aren’t just feel-good values; they’re the daily actions that shape culture, fuel alignment, and drive revenue growth. Inspired by Ferrazzi’s philosophy, we explore how identifying and reinforcing these behaviors helps teams move faster, trust deeper, and scale smarter. If you’re serious about building a culture that performs, this episode is your blueprint.2025-04-2304 minThe E1B2 Collective PodcastWar vs Peace: The Leadership ClockEvery organization lives by the tick‑tock of two very different clocks. One chimes for high‑stakes combat—markets shift, cash burns, competitors flank, and you need a battlefield general with nerves of graphene.
