I recently had the pleasure of interviewing Rex Kurzius 🐼 of Asset Panda on how to create a corporate culture of courage. Rex shared that three of his secrets to his success are "GRIT, the ABILITY TO SELL, and INTEGRITY". Rex is a friend of mine from YPO and I agree 100% in his self-assessment. I would go a step further and say his ability to create a Culture of Courage is one of the reasons each company Rex starts is a success, so please read his article and hear some of his secrets! #YPO, #GRIT, #leadership, #cultureofcourage, #entrepreneurship, #culturematters, #corporateculture, #culture, #integrity, #sales

One of my favorite parts about YPO are the relationships you build and how we all share our successes and challenges of running a business. Steven was gracious enough to give us his time to visit with YNG, the next generation of active YPO members ages 18-30. We strongly feel that together we have the opportunity to shape and mold the business leaders of the future. poppi Frank Barbella Annabelle Goff #DrinkPoppi #TheFutureofBusniess

Juneteenth represents brighter days filled with celebration but also serves as a reminder of the pain and struggles America’s Black community experienced – and still experiences. At YPO with its vision to inspire leaders to make a difference in the world, the day also serves as an opportunity. For member Jason Edwards, it means honoring his father’s #legacy as an influential legislator who fought to make June 19th a federal holiday. “Use Juneteenth as a day to communicate to your company and the descendants of American slavery, that you hear them, you see their history and you recognize their story,” Edwards urges. For Kanarys™ CEO Mandy Price it means funneling her civic mindedness into a company dedicated to systemic change around #diversity, equity and inclusion. “It takes all of us to ensure that we are creating a world that is working for the betterment of all. It’s not just a moral imperative, but societal necessity," she says. Frenchy's Chicken’s CEO Ernest H. is honoring the holiday by partnering with a young Black-owned company, a competitor, to create a menu collaboration. “We hope it shows the community, and really everyone, that Juneteenth was just the beginning of the journey,” Hunter says. “The way we continue to improve Black-owned businesses is to work together and cross competitor lines.” And Devon Henry is leaning into his Black YPO network to support and celebrate other leaders. “We share our joy and celebrate each other’s wins,” he says about the smaller group of YPO members within the larger organization. “We’re constantly asking how we can help each other."

Honoring #Juneteenth is a #family affair for YPO member Jason Edwards. His father, former #Texas state representative Albert Edwards, was instrumental in leading the cause to make June 19th a federal holiday and due to his efforts, in 2021 Congress approved the bill to establish the nationwide holiday. Jason continues his father’s #legacy through #education and #advocacy at Juneteenth U.S.A. Juneteenth marks the day in 1865 – two and a half years after the Emancipation Proclamation was signed – when federal troops arrived in Galveston, Texas, USA, to take control of the state and ensure that all enslaved people were freed. Last year, Edwards sat down with DEI & You Consulting's Dolores Crazover (She/Her) to reflect on his father’s #legacy and what it meant to him to have the day legally recognized. #Leadership #impact #history #nationalholiday

I also touch on self-doubt, imposter syndrome, and the importance of knowing one's own value. There are some practical takeaways for reframing self-talk and approaching leadership with confidence.
