The Less Than Obvious Podcast

Think about a time when you followed your gut and made a choice that was less than obvious to everyone but you. Maybe you were nervous, but you had the courage to throw everyone's advice out the window and push forward into what seemed right.

Or maybe a time when you someone else's less than obvious choice, and you had to live up to the trust they've put in you.

What happened next? Were you a hero…or did it all blow up in your face? Were lessons learned or did it ultimately mean nothing?

Jim McDonald (former co-host and producer of the PowerCast and an MBA) talks to the well-known and the unknown about those pivots toward a less-travelled road, how decisions were made, and how it all turned out.
