About the channel

I'm Doug Thorpe — Army veteran, 5x entrepreneur, and executive coach who's spent decades in the trenches of real leadership. Most leadership advice sounds great in a conference room and falls apart on Monday morning. That's why I created Leadership Powered by Common Sense — a show built around the stuff that actually works. Every episode, I sit down with leaders, experts, and everyday people doing extraordinary things to pull out the lessons you can use right now. No ivory tower theory. No corporate buzzwords. Just honest conversations about what it really takes to lead people well. If you're a business owner, first-time manager, or seasoned executive who's tired of complicated advice — you're in the right place. New episodes weekly. Subscribe so you don't miss one.
