(6.06) 97 Ways to Get What You Want.
from Leadership Decanted · host Paul Garcia, KG Butler & Jen Overbeck
Message us!There's a fairly persuasive myth about power: that once you have enough of it, everything else follows. This episode makes a decent case against that, using nothing more dramatic than a chief executive who can restructure an entire division and still can't get their own kid to tidy their room. If you've ever wondered why some very senior people still don't get listened to, or why some people with almost nothing get listened to constantly, this one's for you.Join KG and Paul as they chat to Jen Overbeck about why having power and having influence turn out to be two genuinely different things.As usual episode's wine comes from our friends, Annandale Cellars, and it's the 2025 Schmölzer & Brown Beechworth Merlot, a straight varietal from Tessa Brown and Jeremy Schmölzer's high-altitude vineyard. It pours a deep, dark garnet and opens with blackberry, cinnamon and dark fruit on the nose. On the palate it's fruity and balanced, with fine tannins, good body for a Merlot, and a bit of cherry and spice that lingers.Get at least half a dozen of these (or half a dozen of any of Annandale Cellars' amazing wines) and get a 20% discount by using our code at checkout: DECANTEDSláinte friends!
