Question 5

What makes Jamie different from other leadership speakers?

Accepted Answer

Three things: (1) Preparation depth - Jamie interviews audience members before every event so his examples feel written for the room. (2) Interactive delivery - audiences participate in live mentorship moments on stage. (3) Practical frameworks - leaders leave with tools they use in their 1-on-1s the same week. He was named Vistage Top Performer 2025, the top 3% of speakers globally, with 95%+ recommendation scores.

Question 6

What is the Isolation Tax of Leadership?

Accepted Answer

The Isolation Tax is Jamie's term for the hidden cost organizations pay when leaders feel disconnected. Research shows one in five workers feels isolated at work, which reduces performance, increases turnover, and erodes accountability. Jamie's keynotes give leaders a practical, repeatable way to close that gap through mentorship culture.

Question 7

What is a mentorship culture?

A mentorship culture is one where leaders at every level take active, consistent responsibility for developing the people around them - not just through formal programs, but through daily habits, language, and rituals that build trust and belonging. It's the operating system behind high-performing teams.

Question 9

What does a discovery call look like?
