Host Joshua McNary welcomes Joel Bennett, owner of Veel Hoeden Consulting, who develops frontline leadership in blue-collar organizations by focusing on measurable impact rather than box-checking training.
Joel explains why the transition from top performer to supervisor is difficult, highlighting mindset shifts, fear of failure, and the challenge of holding effective coaching conversations. He describes his approach of “structured discomfort,” emphasizing real-world application between sessions and measuring success through behavior change and metrics like turnover and engagement.
The conversation also connects leadership development to technology adoption, noting that tools only work when processes and culture support them. Joel discusses using AI to prepare for coaching conversations while keeping people accountable for solving people problems, and advises businesses to start small with new technology, fail fast, and build value incrementally.
