Peers chatting about the demand upon leaders these days, peering into the challenges of collective intelligence and agility to remain future proofed in the face of accelerating disruptive change. With your hosts Mike Richardson and colleagues, we will be peering into how the peer power fuels leaders powered by collective intelligence and wisdom.

The Best Way to See the Future is to Peer into it Together

That’s the heartbeat of The Peering Podcast — where peers get curious, curiosity gets peer-y, and leadership gets real. We explore how collective intelligence and peer power help leaders stay agile, future-ready, and just sane enough to enjoy the ride. Smart talk with a twinkle in its eye — because the future belongs to those who peer into it together. Join us to explore Peer Power, Peering In and Future-Proofing Together.

Peer Power: Where Collective Wisdom Gets Personal

Welcome to The Peering Podcast — where peers peer in to what it really takes to lead, adapt, and stay human in a world spinning faster every day. We explore the power of peer groups, forums, and advisory boards — the unsung heroes behind most great leaders. Because when peers get together, something shifts: perspective sharpens, clarity deepens, and collective intelligence kicks in. This is peer power in action — wisdom with a pulse, connection with consequence.

Peering In: Leadership Under the Microscope (Without Making It Awkward)

Here’s where we turn up the magnification. Hosted by Mike Richardson and a few equally curious colleagues, we’ll be peering into the messy, fascinating realities of modern leadership — agility under pressure, decision-making at speed, and how to stay grounded when everything’s in flux. Expect sharp insights, real stories, and intelligent conversation with a twinkle in its eye. Less theory, more clarity — and a few uncomfortable truths, handled with humor and heart.

Future-Proofing Together: Seeing What’s Next, Before It Hits

In a decade of accelerating disruptive change, we believe future-proofing isn’t a solo sport. It’s a team game — played in the spirit of curiosity, candor, and collective intelligence. On The Peering Podcast, we’ll peer across industries, peer ahead into trends, and occasionally peer over the edge — because that’s where new possibilities live. We’re here to make sure leaders don’t just keep up, but level up — together.
