About Jenn Drummond:
A car accident in 2018 left Jenn Drummond awestruck and emboldened. Rescue workers couldn’t imagine any scenario where she came out of it alive, but she did. That’s when she realized you don’t get to choose when you leave this life…but you sure can choose how you live it. Strengthened by this awareness, she set out to live in a more authentic and adventurous way. Inspired to climb a mountain for her birthday, her son raised the stakes by suggesting Mount Everest.
Not one to back down from a challenge, she accepted the pursuit. During her training, her coach upped the ante and proposed that she go for a Guinness World Record and become the first woman to climb the 7 second summits. The pursuit matched her desire to live a life of significance, not just success.
Today, Jenn is a world record holder who elevates others to master their own summit in life. She’s a successful business owner and Mom of 7 remarkable kids who, as you have heard, boldly inspire and brazenly challenge her. She’s also an international speaker, author, and Host of the Seek Your Summit podcast, who’s focused on inspiring others to go beyond success to a life of significance.

Welcome to a special episode of "Behind the Numbers," featuring an exclusive TEDx-style talk from the Finance Innovation and Excellence (FinEx) Summit 2021! In this episode, Dave Bookbinder explores the powerful idea that a company’s most valuable asset—its people—is often missing from financial statements.
In this award-winning talk, which earned the FinEx Award for Most Impactful Catchphrase, Dave challenges the traditional view that people are simply an expense to be minimized, arguing instead that "People are assets, not expenses." This shift in perspective can transform business success by recognizing the true value of human capital.
Tune in to hear why every CEO who claims “our people are our greatest asset” must back it up by viewing employees as assets rather than expenses. Special thanks to CFO.University and AARO Middle East for making this thought-provoking session possible.

In this episode of Behind the Numbers, I'm pleased to welcome Victoria Yampolsky, who is the president and founder of the Startup Station.
Victoria shares insights on how a positive mindset can lead to better outcomes, even in challenging situations like receiving negative feedback from investors. She highlights the importance of mindset training, comparing it to physical exercise, and discusses proven strategies such as meditation, exercise, and setting aside time for self-awareness.
Victoria illustrates the impact of mindset with real-life examples, including entrepreneurs who thrived by embracing feedback and those who struggled due to rigid thinking. She also emphasizes the significance of financial literacy for entrepreneurs, explaining common mistakes in revenue projections, cost understanding, and the importance of cash flow management.
Throughout the conversation, Victoria and Dave explore the critical financial metrics that entrepreneurs need to track, such as EBITDA, cash flow from operations, and unit economics. They stress the importance of creating flexible and robust financial models that reflect the business strategy and market realities.
As the episode progresses, Victoria delves into the essential characteristics of effective leadership in entrepreneurship, including mental flexibility, intrinsic motivation, emotional regulation, and integrity. She provides valuable advice on how to develop these traits and their impact on business success.
About Victoria Yampolsky
Victoria Yampolsky, CFA, is a serial entrepreneur and an experienced business and finance executive with extensive startup experience. She is the President and Founder of The Startup Station, a CFO advisory and finance education platform for startups and small businesses.
Victoria founded The Startup Station in 2013 after she realized that while startup founders had a lot of passion and technical knowledge about what they were doing, they rarely had business acumen about how to bring their idea to market. Even more rarely they could analyze the financial implications of their decisions, let alone explain the business in financial terms to investors.
The Startup Station focuses on strategic financial modeling of startups and small businesses. We are fractional CFOs who know how to build and use financial models, or plans, as business intelligence tools. These tools translate the founders’ vision into an executable measurable roadmap. By properly implementing this roadmap in the financial systems, we can respond faster and more accurately to market feedback.

Today, we're focusing on leadership, a recurring theme in our discussions, and we're thrilled to be joined by Doug Thorpe, a business advisor, executive coach, and host of the show "Leadership Powered by Common Sense."
Doug shares his extensive background, from his early days as a military officer to his career in banking, and ultimately his journey into consulting and executive coaching. With experience spanning various industries and company sizes, Doug has dedicated himself to helping leaders become better bosses and influencers within their organizations.
In our conversation, we delve into the concept of developing one's identity as a leader. Doug emphasizes the importance of framing up the kind of leader you aspire to be, aligning it with your values and beliefs. He introduces a simple methodology to identify attributes that resonate with you, setting the foundation for effective leadership.
We also explore the challenges faced by next-generation leaders. Doug highlights the traditional path where top individual contributors are promoted to leadership roles without adequate training. He advises new leaders to be proactive in seeking training and mentorship to bridge the gap and effectively transition from being a doer to a thinker.
Addressing the common issue of imposter syndrome, Doug reassures aspiring leaders that they are not alone in feeling inadequate. Embracing this awareness can drive a hunger for learning and improvement. He suggests finding a mentor or coach to navigate these challenges and develop confidence in their leadership abilities.
Doug further discusses the importance of influence in leadership, both upwards and downwards within the organizational hierarchy. He explains that understanding your boss's perspective and finding ways to insert your ideas can enhance your influence without overextending your personal capital.
We also tackle the difference between management and leadership. Doug shares a powerful insight: management is about process, while leadership is about people. Effective leaders invest in their people, helping them thrive and become their best selves at work.
About Our Guest:
Doug Thorpe is an executive coach who provides personalized, one-on-one coaching services to help entrepreneurs and other professionals reach their full potential. With a focus on positive transformation, Doug will work with you to assess your strengths and identify areas of improvement in order to create and maintain a successful career.

Welcome to Behind the Numbers, hosted by Dave Bookbinder. In this episode, we explore the groundbreaking field of hypernomics with Doug Howarth, CEO of Hypernomics, Inc. and author of Hypernomics: Using Hidden Dimensions to Solve Unseen Problems. Doug introduces the science of hypernomics, explaining how it leverages multidimensional analysis to reveal hidden market structures, constraints, and opportunities across various industries.
Doug breaks down hypernomics as a transformative approach to understanding complex markets. By mapping out market variables like square footage, lot size, and price in the housing market, hypernomics can predict pricing ceilings and optimize decision-making. This methodology extends well beyond commodities, offering insights applicable to everything from real estate to retail.
Throughout the episode, Doug shares practical examples, including choosing a washing machine and designing optimal restaurant seating during the COVID-19 pandemic. These cases illustrate how hypernomics can simplify complex decisions for businesses and even small enterprises, making it a valuable tool for any industry.
Hypernomics isn’t just for large corporations; Doug explains how this powerful tool can help business leaders identify market gaps, anticipate demand, and strategically position new products. Hypernomics, Inc. has developed software to map out competitive spaces and understand the upper limits of demand, allowing businesses to avoid costly mistakes and maximize profitability.
Investors can also gain an edge with hypernomics. Doug shares how their private fund, guided by hypernomic principles, has outperformed the S&P 500—demonstrating the system's effectiveness in stock market investment.
Looking ahead, Doug envisions hypernomics becoming a core discipline in business and economics, with applications across industry, academia, and government. His goal is to see hypernomics adopted widely, revolutionizing how markets are understood and navigated to support smarter decision-making.
To learn more about hypernomics, connect with Doug Howarth on his website at dughowarth.com or visit hypernomics.com. His book is available on Wiley, Barnes & Noble, and Amazon.
About our guest:
Doug Howarth, CEO Hypernomics, Inc. & Author of Hypernomics: Using Hidden Dimensions to Solve Unseen Problems
Doug Howarth unleashed a paradigm shift. He discovered Hypernomics. It alters economics in the same way relativity changed physics, as it uses new frames of reference. It starts with four dimensions and adds time for a fifth. But, there is no upper limit to the dimensions considered. It finds the linked, opposing, self-organizing states of Value and Demand at work against each other at all times - just like the game of tug-of-war.
At age 14, Doug Howarth sensed the plotting systems created by René Descartes were inadequate for many tasks. Decades later, he made a series of startling discoveries. He found the economy self-organizes in recognizable opposing patterns and devised ways to portray markets in four, five, or any number of dimensions. Doug named this new field Hypernomics. In 2011, he formed a company, Hypernomics, Inc., who show their customers how to take advantage of Hypernomics.
Hypernomics. Inc. has worked for NASA, United Technologies, Lockheed Martin and Raytheon, among others. Along with two of his Hypernomics colleagues, he was awarded US Patent Number 10,402,838 for Multivariable Regression Analysis, the world's first software designed to deconstruct markets into their 4D structures.
Doug has written 13 peer-reviewed publications across four continents. They've been issued by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA), the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE), and the International Council of the Aeronautical Sciences (ICAS), among others. NASA has requested that he speak to them three times. He has spoken to the Royal Aeronautical Society (RAeS) in London four times, and they have published his peer-reviewed work as well.

Welcome to another enlightening episode of "Behind the Numbers," hosted by Dave Bookbinder. In this episode, we delve into the crucial topics of leadership, transformation, and culture with the dynamic Paul Epstein, founder of Win Monday and author of "Better Decisions Faster" and "The Power of Playing Offense."
Paul shares his extensive experience from 15 years in the NFL and NBA, where he held various roles, including Chief Revenue Officer for the San Francisco 49ers.
Paul also recounts his journey from the challenging beginnings with the LA Clippers, dubbed the "worst franchise in sports history," to breaking Super Bowl revenue records and opening Levi's Stadium. His experiences shaped his belief in the "playing offense" mindset in a defensive world, emphasizing the importance of making the next day your responsibility regardless of external adversities.
One of the episode's highlights is Paul's insightful discussion on the difference between a team of leaders and a leadership team. He shares a powerful story from his time with the 49ers, where a shift from a "no-because" to a "yes-if" mentality transformed the team's approach to challenges, fostering collaboration and innovation.
Paul also addresses the misconception that culture is solely top-down. He introduces the concept that "all culture is local," emphasizing that each individual can influence their immediate environment. By choosing warmth and positivity, employees at all levels can create a thriving culture, which Paul believes is a true competitive advantage.
In addition, Paul touches on the return on investment (ROI) of leadership, highlighting the significant impact of employee engagement on organizational performance. He shares compelling data and personal anecdotes to illustrate how effective leadership and a positive culture can drive business success.
The episode also explores Paul's role as the "WHY Coach" for the 49ers, where he helped individuals discover their purpose and values. He provides a practical framework for understanding and applying one's inner compass, which includes identifying one's why, values, beliefs, decisions, and actions.
