In this episode, Roger welcomes back Mike Arce, founder of Loud Rumor and author of the new book The Standard Is You. They begin by exploring the nuances between stress and pressure, while categorizing team members as tigers, horses, or dogs—and explaining how to manage each type effectively.

Mike shares his personal journey and what inspired him to write his book, which is aimed primarily at employees to give them a deeper understanding of business dynamics. The conversation covers thought-provoking topics such as the importance of fair versus equal treatment in the workplace, the benefits of practicing wisdom over intelligence, and the value of intentionally examining your own thinking.

They also discuss the power of creating compartments in life to enhance productivity and personal satisfaction. Packed with actionable insights, engaging stories, and practical strategies, this episode offers listeners tools to develop an ownership mindset and achieve success both professionally and personally.
