Описание: In this episode of Joey Pinz Discipline Conversations, Joey Pinz sits down with Michaela Anderson, founder of LoyaltyOps™, to unpack why so many organizations stall—not because of strategy, tools, or talent—but because people aren’t aligned on how to think, behave, and decide together.
Michaela breaks down the real difference between leaders and managers, why culture exists whether you design it or not, and how misalignment quietly destroys execution. Drawing from her experience as a Division I athlete, business founder, and organizational advisor, she explains how performance becomes predictable when teams operate with shared standards—not heroics.
The conversation dives deep into why popular frameworks like EOS and OKRs often fail to create consistency, what AI can (and can’t) fix inside organizations, and why loyalty—defined as commitment plus action—may be the missing ingredient behind sustainable growth.
This episode is a must-listen for founders, executives, and leaders who feel stuck firefighting, drowning in meetings, or frustrated that “great people” aren’t producing great results. You’ll walk away with a clearer understanding of how leadership, culture, and systems must work together—especially as companies scale.

⭐ Top 3 Highlights
1. 🧭 Leaders create direction—managers create movement (and why you need both)
2. 🏗️ Culture isn’t vibes—it’s infrastructure that drives performance
3. 🤖 AI scales behavior, not judgment—misalignment gets amplified, not fixed
