  • Anchored Leadership: Vision, Purpose, and Character
    Dec 12 2025

    Schuyler spent years watching every move of his commander in Baghdad—studying how he thought, how he made decisions, and how he led people when it mattered most.
    This week on the Steady Leader Podcast, that commander joins him: Colonel (Retired) Dale Kuehl

    They dive into the lessons that shaped Schuyler as a young leader:
    • “If you think, you can lead better.”
    • Leadership is influence—rooted in ethics and values.
    • Protect your mornings, your mindset, and your family time.
    • Develop future leaders, not just short-term results.
    • Build a culture where people can speak up, grow, and win.

    Colonel Kuehl shares how to build a shared vision, how to run a team with clarity, and the questions every young leader must answer:
    Who are you? What is your purpose? What anchors you?

    And he leaves us with a story from Baghdad you won’t forget.

  • Protect Your Culture: Why Leaders Must Remove Negativity
    Nov 21 2025

    In this episode of The Steady Leader Podcast, we hear from a successful leader of over 3 decades, Ted Oakley, as he shares what it really takes to lead yourself, your team, and your company. Ted Oakley discusses how leaders set the pace and direction for their team, providing answers along the way, and guide the organization all the way to the end result.


    Key Takeaways:

    • Lead Yourself: Set goals, write daily affirmations, keep learning, and never plateau—hard work beats luck.
    • Develop Your Team: Focus on core leaders; advise, teach, and solve problems while clearly painting the vision.
    • Lead Your Company: Quantify results, create accountability, and model the energy you want your team to mirror.
    • Young Leader Guidance: Channel energy, identify your unique value, and build your role around it.
    • Protect Culture: Be the company’s best salesperson, remove negativity quickly, and maintain composure—leaders can have a bad moment, not a bad day.

  • People Before Projects: The Power of Empathetic Leadership
    Nov 14 2025

    In this episode of The Steady Leader Podcast, Schuyler sits down with Lisa Oborne and Christopher Eaddy to talk about what it really means to lead with empathy—putting people over projects and caring for the whole person, not just their performance.

    We discuss:
    • Why empathy is a leader’s greatest advantage
    • How to slow down, find your purpose, and lead yourself first
    • The difference between managing tasks and leading hearts
    • How to keep your team steady by helping them grow, not just meet deadlines

    Every company has a culture—and so do you. The question is: are you paying attention to it?

    Listen now and learn how to lighten the yoke, lead with love, and bring passion back into your purpose.
