The Scorecard That's Transforming Starbucks
Starbucks didn’t get its best quarter in three years by adding more initiatives. It got there by getting clearer.

Headlines shout layoffs and AI disruption, but the real friction most teams feel right now is slower and sneakier: bureaucracy. Lone Rock Leadership's co-founder Russ Hill zooms out from the noise and gets specific about why mid-level layers are shrinking, how meeting creep drains momentum, and what leaders can do this quarter to cut delays without cutting trust.

Who You Spend Time With: Evaluating Your 1st and 2nd Connections
Careers don’t stall because people forget how to work hard; they stall because the room stops changing. We dig into a simple, disruptive idea: individuals matter more than institutions. When you choose who you spend time with as carefully as you choose your company, your trajectory shifts—faster ideas, bolder bets, better results. Lone Rock Leadership co-founder Russ Hill walks through two practical circles that shape outcomes. Your first-degree connections—bosses, teammates, key clients—det...

The Annual State of Leadership Report: Three Realities for 2026
The ground keeps moving and the old playbook can’t keep up. We pulled back the curtain on our 2026 Leadership Reality Report and walked through the intel leaders are using to make faster, smarter decisions without perfect visibility—because waiting for certainty is the new risk. We start with the three realities shaping every org we work with: volatility that scrambles supply chains, policy, and tech; versatility as a non-negotiable demand across roles; and ambiguity that forces choices befo...
