In this Success, Secrets, and Stories podcast, John and Greg are interviewing Ted Santos.
What if the key to transforming both your leadership and relationships lies in understanding conflict at its root? Ted Santos, founder and CEO of Turnaround Investment Partners and author of "Here's Why You Can't Find Love," reveals the staggering
$300 billion cost of divorce to corporate America's productivity and offers a revolutionary framework for addressing personal and professional challenges.Santos challenges conventional thinking with his provocative assertion that "love doesn't create a great relationship; love is a byproduct of a great relationship." Through compelling examples and personal stories, he demonstrates how developing self-awareness and conflict resolution skills can transform both boardrooms and bedrooms. The secret? Understanding that most conflicts arise not from external circumstances but from our unresolved internal triggers.
The conversation is fascinating as Santos explores his "disruptive leadership model," arguing that great leaders must intentionally create problems rather than solve them. Drawing inspiration from figures like Steve Jobs, he illustrates how pushing beyond comfort zones drives innovation and growth. "Either you disrupt yourself or you'll be disrupted by the marketplace," Santos warns, offering practical strategies for navigating change in a rapidly evolving world.
Perhaps most compelling is Santos's method for developing resilient teams by stretching people beyond their perceived limitations while providing unwavering support. Rather than giving step-by-step instructions, he advocates a Socratic approach that helps people build their problem-solving abilities—a technique he perfected while raising his siblings after losing his parents.
