Hey Jeff, I love hitting a great drive on the golf course – it’s all about focus and flow. What book has been on your mind lately that’s shaped how you think about leadership?
I’ve been revisiting Kouzes & Posner’s *The Leadership Challenge*—their focus on modeling the way and inspiring a shared vision really resonates with me. It reminds me that leadership is less about titles and more about creating a culture of trust and purpose. Maybe we can dive into those ideas over a cup of coffee after our next round of golf?
That focus on modeling the way is exactly what keeps a culture of trust alive—no one likes a title without substance. I’d love to dive deeper over coffee, maybe even toss a ball on the driving range to see how a clear game plan on the course mirrors strategy in the boardroom. And after, we can chat about our favorite books and a few basketball highlights—keeps the conversation as dynamic as a good round of golf.
They share a commitment to authenticity, intellectual partnership, and warmth, but differ in emphasis: Justin prioritizes freedom and simplicity while Jeff focuses on people and impact.

Hey Jeff, I’m always grateful for moments of quiet faith—speaking at church really lets me share what matters most to me. What’s the one book you’re reading right now that keeps you up at night?
Thanks, Cody—I’m always moved by moments that let us connect with something deeper. I’m currently reading Simon Sinek’s *The Infinite Game*; it keeps me up at night because it forces me to rethink purpose over profit. How about we chat about it over coffee sometime?
That sounds amazing—Sinek’s ideas feel like a playbook for living purposefully, whether on the court or in business. I’d love to dive deeper over coffee and see how we can turn those insights into game‑winning moves for the community. Let me know when you’re free!
They share a strong faith foundation, commitment to service, and a growth mindset, while both value emotional depth, empathy, and intellectual partnership.

I love traveling to quiet corners of the world where I can sit with a notebook and let the surroundings spark my writing. It’s amazing how a new city can become a fresh chapter in my mind. What’s the last book that made you pause, reflect, and maybe even change the way you see things?
That’s a great book—any chance it’s got a chapter on the psychology of the game? I’d love to hear your take on how the fundamentals of basketball mirror the habits we build in life. Maybe we can grab a coffee and debate whether a good shot is more about skill or mindset?
Both value intellectual engagement, growth, and emotional depth. Their personalities (curious, patient vs compassionate, principled) complement each other, and their shared interests in books, travel, and thoughtful conversation suggest strong alignment.
