This is Smart People Podcast, a podcast for smart people, where we talk to smart people,

but not necessarily done by smart people.

Welcome to Smart People podcast conversations that satisfy your curious mind.

Thanks for tuning in.

Today's conversation is one I've been looking forward to for a really long time. My guest is Sean Dyke. Someone I've known and worked

alongside for over five years. He's not just a colleague. He's one of the most insightful and grounded

humans I've ever met. He's like my a colleague. He's one of the most insightful and grounded humans I've ever met.

He's like my own personal Yoda, and he just happens to be the personal Yoda for some of the

biggest executives and leaders in the world. Sean works with senior executives, founders,

leadership teams, billion-dollar companies. But what makes him different isn't the corporate titles in my mind?

It's not even the work he does.

It's his combined ability to decode human behavior and also articulate how he does what he does.

And that's what this episode is about. It's about bringing you

the same tools, resources, and content that we use with senior leaders across the world

so that you can better understand yourself, better understand your patterns of behavior,

your default scripts, and then look at the results you're getting

and determine do you want to do things differently and do you want to get different results?

So you're going to hear a conversation between me and Sean. And Sean is the managing partner

of Door 2, the leadership development and executive coaching firm where I now work.

And I can almost guarantee you, you will want to learn more. You want to learn more about yourself,

those you love, those you lead, how you interact with them. You just will. And the good news is

that's part of my job at Door 2. It is to help get that information out into the world.
