Whether it is the hunger of a leader chasing an ambitious vision, or the physical hunger affecting millions of families worldwide, both believe the only acceptable response is massive, immediate action.During this deep-dive conversation, Jeff and Tony share the defining personal experiences that shaped their life missions—from a rainy night in Brazil for Jeff, to a pivotal Thanksgiving dinner for Tony. They discuss why true leadership is defined by the power of decision, focusing on three choices every leader must make daily:What will you focus on? The problem or the possibility?What does it mean? Is a setback a failure or a lesson?What are you going to do? Manage the status quo or take massive action?They also discuss how they have actively applied this psychology to build the Coalition to Close the Protein Gap. By raising 40 million dollars to construct the infrastructure needed to deliver 3 billion protein-rich meals to vulnerable communities, they are proving that when purpose meets scale, real-world change is possible.Strategy is easy. Psychology is the hard part. Watch the full conversation to learn why leaders must stop managing circumstances and start creating the future.Learn more about our mission to end the protein gap: #SharedTable #Leadership #CloseTheProteinGap
