We’re proud and excited to announce that with this episode (#400), we’re celebrating another milestone. We’ve entered our twelfth year of Growth Igniters® Radio! Listen to this Quick Take to find out what we’ve learned and what’s next.
While there are more podcasts than ever, it’s still rare to keep podcasting over the long-term. According to multiple credible sources, including our podcast platform Blubrry, just under 4% of all podcasts remain active beyond 10 episodes. This gives us more reasons to celebrate our 400th episode! We’re honored that the Popcon Podcast Awards has named Growth Igniters® Radio as a Top Podcast for 3 consecutive years. Thinkers360TM Thought Leaders has also included Growth Igniters® Radio on their list of “Top 125 Podcasts to Listen to in 2026,” and Growth Igniters® Radio is ranked as a “Top 5% Podcast” by the podcast database Listen Notes.
So why are we committed to continuing on the podcast journey? Because it’s just one of the ways we help top leadership teams of established companies ignite game-changing, business innovation and transformational growth in the evolving world. Other ways include Pam’s keynote speaking and book, our advisory, and articles.
Not only do we learn from our guests (many of whom have become friends), we learn from our listeners! We appreciate hearing from you and reading your reviews on Apple, Spotify, and other podcast venues. You’ve shared how you’ve gained new insights, inspiration, and immediately useful ideas through our conversations with visionary CEOs and directors of established companies, world-renowned thought leaders, best-selling authors, and emerging thought Leaders who are changing the face of business. You’ve also shared that our short “Pam & Scott Quick Take Episodes” are inspiring you to think differently about reimagining leadership for now and into the future.
While preparing for our conversations with our guests and each other takes a lot of research on our part, it makes a difference in the outcome.
We’re also grateful for the supportive mentors we’ve had along our podcast journey. Our producer, Kate Astrakhan of Podcast Network Solutions, as well as previous producers over the years have gone above and beyond at times to make us sound like we’re in the same room, even when we’re on other sides of the world. They’ve also encouraged us to expand beyond what’s comfortable and think even bigger about Growth Igniter® Radio.
Finally, we discuss how in the transforming world,the ability to engage your entire organization and stakeholders in reimagining leadership and transforming your company will become a baseline requirement for CEOs, not an occasional initiative. Clearly, the world will keep transforming over the years. However, there are a number of topics that remain evergreen – especially in the age of AI. These include building trust, fostering a culture of business innovation, and collaborating in new ways to keep bringing big dreams to life.
To hear about some of the trends we’ve focused on over the years, be sure to listen to this Quick Take episode.
So what’s next for Growth Igniters® Radio? Look for more episodes that support reimagining leadership to transform and reinvent the future. As the business environment becomes more uncertain, complex and turbulent, we’re focusing on leading in the now while also transforming for what’s next. We and our guests will discuss different aspects of thinking even bigger, staying opportunity-focused, and engaging employees, customers and other stakeholders. This is what can make all the difference between surviving and thriving regardless of the twists and turns ahead.
If the world’s going to keep transforming, we need to keep transforming too.— Pam Harper
