Free Tools: Your Scoreboard Might Be Killing Your Momentum
You’ve got numbers. Maybe even dashboards.

But here’s the real question: Does your team actually know if they’re winning?

In this Free Tools Session, Benj Miller and McKenzie Reeves Decker unpack why most scoreboards fail to motivate and what it really takes to build one that fuels performance and culture.

🎯 What you’ll walk away with:

1️⃣ How “should” metrics quietly drain engagement
2️⃣ The scoreboard vs. report difference (and why it matters)
3️⃣ The power of 3 to 5 focused KPIs
4️⃣ How to measure culture and leadership not just output
5️⃣ A free AI tool that makes it all easier: WinningMetrics.ai

This isn’t just about tracking performance.
It’s about giving your team clarity, energy, and a scoreboard that actually means something.

You say you’re a people-first leader… but what happens when it gets hard?
Budget cuts. Underperformance. Tough calls that impact real people.

In this week’s Reflection Session, Benj Miller and McKenzie Reeves Decker pull back the curtain on what it really means to lead with a people-first mindset, especially when the pressure’s on.

Forget the clichés. This is about more than being “nice.” It’s about having the courage to lead with clarity, honesty, and dignity.

🎧 Inside this episode:

✅ When Loyalty Backfires
Keeping someone “because they’ve been here forever” might be costing your team more than you think.
✅ Kind ≠ Weak
Avoiding hard conversations doesn’t make you compassionate—it makes things worse. Real leadership means facing the tough stuff.
✅ Dignity Over Drama
It’s not what you do, it’s how you do it. Layoffs, feedback, and even promotions—every moment is a chance to lead with dignity.
✅ Lead Out Loud
Bringing your team into tough decisions builds trust. Going silent? That breeds doubt, fast.
✅ Ask Before You Assume
Benj shares the two powerful questions every leader should ask their team (and themselves) before claiming the “people-first” title.


This episode is a gut-check for every leader who wants to build a business with heart without losing their edge.

If you’re navigating hard decisions and want to lead with both strategy and soul, this one’s for you.

The 3 Questions Every Leader Must Answer to Stay Grounded

In this deeply personal Soul Dive episode of Sessions with System & Soul, Benj Miller takes us back to a pivotal moment that reshaped his identity and leadership.

What started as a desperate quest for business answers transformed into a life-changing conversation about what truly grounds us as leaders and humans.

Joined by McKenzie Reeves Decker, the conversation peels back the layers of external validation and digs into the soul work that keeps us inwardly sound and others focused.

🔑 Key Takeaways:

• Leadership Begins with Identity: 77% of leadership effectiveness comes from who you are, not just what you do.

• The 3 Big Questions: "Who is my audience?", "Why do I matter?", and "Who am I?" These are not just reflective, they are foundational.

• Audience Matters: You cannot let critics or fleeting circumstances sign your report card. Who holds that pen in your life?

• Worth Is Not Earned, It Is Given: A profound realization that your value is defined by what someone is willing to pay, and for Benj, that meant everything.

• From Fragile to Anchored: Building identity on solid ground prevents leadership from being derailed by toxic feedback or failure.

💬 This episode is a raw and real invitation to strip away the noise and reclaim clarity in who you are.

Whether you are deep in the trenches or just starting your leadership journey, take 18 minutes to realign with what matters most.
