E1B2 the Podcast with Anthony Vaughan

In this quick-hit, post-gym episode of The E1B2 Collective Podcast, AJ dives into a fiery reflection on team design—not from a textbook, but from the trenches. What happens when mid-level talent is given final-cut authority on critical business initiatives? What kind of organizational trust, hiring rigor, and design precision does that require?From salary bands as status signals to internal employee branding and lightning-fast decision-making, AJ unpacks the beautiful chaos of decentralized ownership. This one’s for the leaders who aren’t afraid of a little discomfort if it means unlocking velocity, innovation, and deep employee alignment. As AJ says—lean in, build right, and enjoy the juice on the other side.
