it's important for them to understand how they and their organization got there, which is

they got there not because they were great leaders, but because they were really good at doing

the job, doing the work, doing the analysis, doing the presentation.

I'm Ted Sides, and this is Capital Allocators.

My guest on today's show is Matt Spielman, founder and CEO of Inflection Point Partners,

an executive coaching firm that works with leaders primarily in investment organizations.

Matt first joined me on the show four years ago, where we discussed his path into executive

coaching, inflection points in his career, and his GPS system that aligns an individual's

goals and helps execute on them. Our conversation this time around builds on that foundation with what Matt has

learned since. We explore the challenges of leadership at the top, the personality dynamics that

shape investment organizations, and the essential role of feedback, empathy, and appreciation in

managing people. We discussed the evolution of inflection point from one-on-one coaching

to firm-wide leadership systems, and the role artificial intelligence may play in scaling

his work going forward. Before we get to the interview, a quick announcement. We've set new dates

for our Capital Allocators university for investor relations and business development

professionals. Those dates are December 3rd and 4th in New York City. Later in the year is just a

better time of year for this gathering. It's post-AGM season, travel starts to wind down. It's right

before the holiday crunch time. And it's a great time for Capital Raisers to reflect on their previous year

and plan for the year ahead. December 3rd and 4th in New York City. CAU for IRBD is a closed-door

gathering for Capital Raisers to connect with peers, learn from Allocators and other experts, and really

share in best practices with each other. You can learn more at Capital Allocators.com
