People Over Profit—Scaling with Empathy, Not Ego
Update: 2025-10-21
Description
Lead with empathy. Scale with values. In this grounded, no-spin conversation, host Singh sits down with Dan Cunio (COO, Malone Hatley; host of I Now Pronounce You… Divorced and The Business Blueprint) to unpack the business case behind People > Profit. Dan shares how values-based leadership reduced attrition, scaled across states, and strengthened client outcomes in one of the most emotionally charged fields: family law. You’ll get courtroom-tested boundary scripts, a mindful decision lens for litigation vs. ego, and a weekly leadership cadence you can steal tomorrow.
From “assume the judge is copied” texts to the opening question he uses to defuse threat responses, this episode delivers actionable tools for leaders who want to protect their teams from secondary trauma, build trust, and turn empathy into performance.
