Episode 12 - An Outstanding Podcast
John Laurito conducts a well-balanced interview with Peter Velardi and as a result, the listener gains valuable insight into the pursuit of excellence. John’s disciplined approach in avoiding the “host hog” syndrome allowed him to draw out Peter’s story in an inspiring and humorous episode. You will have to listen to the podcast to not only get a mini-master’s course in leadership but also a glimpse into the workings of the Massachusetts Mafia and it’s connection to ladies panties. Now … if that hook doesn’t induce you to listen to this and other of John’s podcasts, you could very well miss membership in Pareto’s top 20%. Just listen - you’ll love it!

Timely Podcast
I just listened to John’s podcast “Taking fear out of the equation” and this a relevant subject anytime, but especially important during this trying period we are in. We all fall victim to our fears in one shape or another and moving past them is critical to success.

Time well spent
I had the privilege of working with John in the past. I just finished listening to the podcast where he interviewed Larry Post (I also had the privilege of working with Larry). This was an extremely thoughtful interview that has so many messages that can be used to change your life. Get a pen and paper and be ready to take a few pages of notes. Nice job John!!!

- #350 - Fear FactorFear is a human emotion that is triggered by a perceived threat. It is a basic survival mechanism that signals our bodies to respond to danger with a fight or flight response.

Today he stands on two decades of experience working with 'it' brands, athletes, and entertainers, having created iconic marketing experiences and programs that have fueled companies to relevancy. He's won as many awards as he's had all-nighters, leading Archrival to become a 2016 Ad Agency of the Year and Inc Magazine 1000.

Presentations and workshops are dynamic, full of energy, and hit deep into the conversation organizations must have to innovate. Collecting well over 250 keynote presentations and workshops in his sneakers, he's adaptable from the largest conference stage to a small boardroom.

E-Myth creator Michael Gerber says Levin has created more successful books than any human being in history.

- Tomorrow's Leader Nov 2 · 9m #330 - Progress Over Perfection"The definition of insanity is expecting things to change when I haven't changed anything about what I do or anything about the circumstances." For the past 20 years, host John Laurito has been speaking at events all over the world to share his knowledge on what makes the best leaders so good (personally or professionally). Recently, he realized that his own perfectionism was holding him back from being an effective leader. He would get so caught up in making sure everything was perfect that he would miss deadlines or not even start projects. He decided that the only way to overcome this was to put some of his leadership responsibilities in the hands of others—delegating. This has been a game-changer for him, and he can now focus on the things that he is good at and make progress instead of getting bogged down in details. Show notes: [1:12] The problem with perfectionism [4:00] Is your life affected by perfectionism? [5:23] John’s recommendation if you are plagued by perfectionism [8:49] Outro Get a copy of Tomorrow's Leader on Amazon https://tinyurl.com/huseae9h Text LEADER to 617-393-5383 to receive The Top 10 Things That The Best Leaders Are Doing Right Now For questions, suggestions, or speaker inquiries, contact me at john@lauritogroup.com0 comments0
