This episode of Start With a Win brings together two of the most dynamic voices in leadership, Anne Morriss and Frances Frei, for a conversation that challenges outdated business mantras and replaces them with a powerful alternative. With wit, clarity, and decades of experience guiding organizations and leaders at the highest levels, they reveal how true impact is created - not by choosing between speed and care, but by mastering both. From Harvard classrooms to global boardrooms, their insights cut through the noise and inspire a fresh way of thinking about trust, momentum, and solving big problems. If you’ve ever wondered how great leaders accelerate results without sacrificing integrity, this conversation with host Adm Contos is one you won’t want to miss.

Anne and Frances are best-selling authors, influential leadership experts, and the founders of The Leadership Consortium—a pioneering accelerator focused on building inclusive executive teams and preparing the next generation of senior leaders. Frances is a Harvard Business School professor and former SVP of Leadership and Strategy at Uber, where she led efforts during a time of massive transformation. Anne is a serial entrepreneur and sought-after leadership coach. Together, they advise top companies—from startups to Fortune 10s—on strategy, operations, and culture, helping leaders navigate complex change. They’ve co-authored three acclaimed books, including Move Fast & Fix Things, and co-host Fixable, a TED Audio Collective podcast. Their work and insights have been featured in viral TED Talks and recognized by Thinkers50 as among the world’s top management thinkers.
