#246 Todd Davis: 30 Years at FranklinCovey—7 Habits They Don’t Teach in Business School — Part Two

In a world obsessed with AI, automation, and the next big tech trend, Todd Davis believes human intelligence is more valuable than ever. 

Sure, AI can crunch numbers, but can it build trust, resolve conflicts, or make people feel heard?

In Part 2, we go straight into the human side of leadership—why most people don’t actually listen, why trust is like a bank account, and how one employee nearly lost her career over a simple blind spot. Todd also shares a powerful story about a prison inmate who transformed his life using The 7 Habits—a reminder that leadership isn’t about titles, it’s about impact.

Key Highlights of Our Interview:

The Art of Actually Listening – “Most people aren’t listening. They’re just waiting for their turn to talk.” The leadership skill no one teaches—but everyone needs.

The Trust Bank Account – “Withdraw too much without making deposits, and you’ll be bankrupt.” How trust works just like money—and why leaders must invest in it.

A Career Almost Ruined by One Blind Spot – “She was the smartest person in the room. But no one wanted to work with her.” How self-awareness can make or break careers.

The 7 Habits… In Prison – “An inmate wrote to us saying the book changed his life.” How leadership principles apply anywhere—even behind bars.

Why Human Intelligence is the Competitive Advantage – “Companies are chasing AI skills. But what they actually need? People who can think, communicate, and lead.”
