In Part 2 of this powerful series on leadership, Andrew Reed turns the spotlight on the Seldom Spoken Aspects of Leadership — the stuff you won't find in standard training manuals. From the illusion of control to the pursuit of self-mastery, this episode dives deep into the emotional, psychological, and spiritual strength required to truly lead. Drawing from decades of REAL-WORLD experience, Andrew challenges leaders to stop managing outcomes and start cultivating "conditions for success".

With themes ranging from emotional regulation to visionary clarity, this session reveals how Leadership is less about command and more about character. It’s about modeling excellence, inspiring trust, managing energy, and creating a standard-driven culture. Reed’s message is clear: you can’t ask others to grow unless you’re willing to evolve first.

If Part 1 was a wake-up call, Part 2 is a guide for building internal strength and external systems that reinforce real results.

Adapted from MVI’s Empowerment Hour: The COMPLETE Seldom Spoken Aspects of Leadership

In the first installment of this four-part series, Andrew Reed strips leadership down to its raw, unsanitized truth. Recorded live during Multi-View Inc.’s Empowerment Hour, this episode focuses on the often-unspoken REALITIES of Leadership — the kind of insight you won’t find in books or on stage. With decades of experience helping organizations place and grow real Leaders, Andrew speaks candidly about Courage, Risk Tolerance, Humility, Failure, and the Burden of Responsibility.

This episode unpacks the intangible — and essential — traits that separate true Leadership from title-holding. From overcoming imposter syndrome to demanding Accountability, from recognizing Intelligence to assessing real readiness, it’s a no-fluff guide for those called to lead. If you’re in a Leadership role — or preparing to become one — this message is both a wake-up call and a toolkit.

"A must or required listening for Executives and Managers of ALL areas and business sectors!"

Watch out for the next message, every Friday @ 7:01AM!

VISION!!! Often seen as “squishy” - a waste of time, especially if you’ve sat through “Vision Statement Creating” meetings. However, Vision is, in fact, one of the most VALUABLE things a person, as well as an organization, can make! Why? A great Vision can change your LIFE! Literally! It seems that Human beings need a “Bright Horizon” to look forward to! Without a Life-Giving Vision, people perish!

In this episode, Andrew Reed dives into one of the most misunderstood — yet essential — elements of building a great organization: Vision. Far from being corporate fluff or an exercise in branding, Vision is described here as the foundational force that creates FOCUS. Without it, individuals lose direction, teams lose energy, and entire companies drift.

Broadcasting from a mountaintop in the Awakened Forest, Andrew shares how a compelling vision transforms not only organizations, but people. It sharpens decision-making, boosts morale, and fosters the kind of culture that outperforms competitors. From startups to M&A transitions, this episode explains how Vision informs Design, Culture, Leadership Development, Compensation, and Accountability — and how to build one that actually motivates real advancement.

Watch out for the next message, every Friday.

Operating an organization as an “integrated, coherent whole” is something most CEOs aspire to have… But it is RARELY accomplished. Not achieving this level of integration causes disfunction, waste and creates a miserable work atmosphere of frustration. It is disheartening… and, like a Natural system, like a human body, it is not healthy.

What does it look like when a company functions like a living organism — where every department, system, and person operates in mutual support of the whole? In this dense, highly practical episode, Andrew Reed unpacks the architecture of a truly integrated organization. Drawing from Multi-View’s work with over 1,300 companies, he reveals how high-functioning organizations rely less on talent and more on system design — using compensation, standards, and culture to wire the business together like a central nervous system.

This is a masterclass in systems thinking, focused on one foundational truth: fragmentation kills excellence. Reed explains how to build a culture where every action is aligned with purpose, financial health, and long-term quality. From compensation structures to people development and the groundbreaking Multi-View org chart, this episode lays out a blueprint for leaders serious about coherence, accountability, and lasting impact.

Chapter Markers

(00:00) – Intro

(03:34) – What Nature Teaches Organizations
Translating natural intelligence into organizational structure and interdependence.

(04:58) – The Multi-View Model Defined
Dynamic, behavior-based, and results-driven — how MBI redefines quality and performance.

(08:38) – Selling Certainty, Not Just Services
Why predictable experiences matter more than perfection.

(12:07) – Purpose + Financial Reality = Sustainable Culture
Why leading with meaning drives the best economic outcomes.

(14:37) – System Over Star Talent
The most successful companies invest in design, not heroics.

(17:43) – Compensation as the Great Teacher
How to wire accountability, harmony, and learning directly into pay systems.

(23:37) – The War Against Siloing
Disconnected departments = a sick system. Alignment is non-negotiable.

(28:59) – Rethinking the Org Chart
Putting clients at the top, leaders in service, and people development at the center.

(36:08) – Objective Monitoring & Radical Transparency
Data-driven feedback that eliminates subjectivity and transforms management.

(40:26) – The Ten-Two Redundancy System
A powerful cross-training model that builds flexibility and prevents fraud.

(44:23) – Direct Accountability is Non-Negotiable
Why success or failure always comes down to clear lines of ownership.

What separates the 90th percentile from the rest? In this episode, Andrew Reed explores what it truly means to be an Outlier — not by personality, pedigree, or raw talent, but by the consistent application of what MVI calls the “Best-Known Success Patterns.” These are not theories or trends, but proven behaviors and structures observed in elite individuals and organizations over decades of research and practice.

Best-Know Success Pattern (BKSPs) is what MVI is about! We measure 989 data-elements, with 922 cross-calcuations from 1,000 companies on a monthly basis! Then, FOCUS on the 90th percentile to see WHO is operating at the highest levels…then we study, document and communicate this to our clients! BKSPs are always accomplished by a minority of companies statistically and by definition. They are OUTLIERS, living in the extremity of the normally distributed Bell-Curve. The practices can be radically different or subtle. However, they are NEVER popular…at least at first… So being an Outliner is a lonely place! It takes courage! But this is the PRICE of accomplishment and being a real Leader!

This message isn’t about shortcuts — it’s about learning to recognize the "patterns" that work and aligning your life and company with them.

Chapter Markers

(00:00) – Intro

(01:09) – What Is an Outlier?
Why humans crave uniqueness — and how to aim beyond average.

(02:00) – Patterns Over Randomness
Nature doesn’t operate randomly — and neither do great companies.

(04:06) – Pattern Recognition = Intelligence
Learning to read the rhythms of success to make better decisions.

(06:44) – The 3 Traits of 90th Percentile Organizations
People development, meaning, and compensation done differently.

(10:18) – The Bell Curve & The Will to Lead
Why average is always crowded — and how to move to the edges.

(12:22) – The Three Phases of Innovation
Ridicule. Contempt. Acceptance. Why most best practices get rejected before embraced.

(17:34) – Why We Resist What Works
Unfamiliarity, fear, energy, and the ego — the enemies of adoption.

(21:15) – Success Isn’t Permanent
Even great systems erode without constant reinforcement and clarity of purpose.

(24:56) – MVI Magic Services & Practical Accountability
How Multi-View helps embed best practices into organizational DNA.

In the premiere episode, Andrew Reed — founder of Multi-View Incorporated — offers a foundational blueprint for designing an organization that balances profit and purpose. From the tranquil mountaintop retreat known as the Awakened Forest, Reed draws on over 27 years of system-based research across 1,300 companies to illuminate the “best known success patterns” of top-performing businesses. This isn’t just theory; it’s a pragmatic deep dive into what separates the 90th percentile from the rest, from systems thinking to standardization and intelligent compensation.

What makes this episode compelling is its refusal to sell anything but ideas. With a philosophical tone and no-fluff delivery, Reed argues that exceptional results are structurally dictated — not magically willed into existence. Listeners will walk away with a broader understanding of how organizational intelligence, data-informed decision-making, and leadership humility create the conditions for excellence. This episode sets the tone for a series dedicated to directionally correct thinking for real-world transformation.

On the blunt truths that data reveals about your organization — and why emotional honesty is key.

16:35 – Standardization & Accountability
Essential components of organizational integrity: setting, measuring, and enforcing standards.

How hospice and high-stakes work shaped MultiView’s uncompromising quality standards.

28:31 – Truth, Humility & Algorithms
Rejecting ego, fluff, and social validation — focusing on truth, humility, and value delivery.

Concluding with a call for humility, pattern awareness, and the courage to move toward better.
