Books and Podcast
The work of leading is not transformed by a weekend of reading. It is built one day at a time. The CEO's Mindset Reset, in print and in your ears every morning, turns that idea into a habit.
A 365-day leadership development system delivered across volumes. Each daily entry follows one rhythm: a leader's story you will recognize, a research-backed reframe, a reflection, and one action to take before the day gets away from you.
Stop drowning in leadership chaos and build your foundation. The first 91 days work through the fundamental challenges every leader faces: decision paralysis, culture, focus, and the weight of the top job.

You have the fundamentals. Volume 2 picks up where the foundation leaves off, guiding you through the harder, higher-stakes work of empowerment, scale, and leading through complexity.

Timeless leadership principles from the founder of history's most enduring organization.
The Forever Founder studies the most enduring organization in history and the leadership principles that built it. Mark McNees has spent his career as a serial founder, a professor of entrepreneurship, and the builder of organizations that thrive beyond his tenure. The book distills 2,000 years of organizational survival into practical lessons for founders and executives. It covers how to build culture that scales, develop people who lead without you, and design an institution that endures past its founder. Written for leaders who want durable principles, not passing tactics.
