Are you making big decisions from a place of clarity—or chaos?
In this episode of Business Origin Stories, host Amy Schutte sits down with executive coach and decision-making expert Michael Walker to unpack why so many founders and leaders feel stuck, second-guess themselves, or unintentionally throw their teams into whiplash with constant pivots.
Drawing on years of research, coaching, and real-world leadership experience, Mike breaks down:
- Why decision-making is a teachable skill, not a personality trait you either have or don’t
- How to understand your decision-making style (gut-decider, slow processor, community processor, etc.) and actually work with it
- What neuroscience reveals about how our brains choose, and why we often feel fear or resistance around big moves
- The hidden role of values and identity in every major business decision
- How better decisions can save your company time, money, and team burnout
- Smart ways to use AI as a critical-thinking partner (not just a “yes-bot”) to pressure test your ideas
If you’re a founder, executive, or leader who’s tired of decision fatigue, chaos, or “winging it,” this conversation will give you language, frameworks, and hope.
Tune in to learn how to make more aligned, effective decisions—for your business, your team, and your life.
