What does it take to launch something new—and make sure people actually care? Chris, Jonathan, and Sasha go behind the scenes of bringing a new product to market, from listening to customers and finding the right message to building a launch strategy that cuts through the noise. Then, they rethink performance management: why annual reviews fall short and how clarity, fairness, trust, continuous feedback, and career growth can create better employees, managers, and businesses.

Small business optimism is rising—but so are the pressures of running one. Chris, Jonathan, and Sasha dig into the forces reshaping service businesses: a tightening labor market, soaring health insurance costs, the AI adoption gap, weakening pricing power, and the push to get more from existing teams. Is the answer hiring, training, technology, higher prices, or simply operating better? A practical debate about how growing businesses can navigate the squeeze without burning out their people or sacrificing growth.
