Answers That Count with Charles Musgrove is about leadership and the experiences that shape us into who we become as leaders.
Charles sits down with business owners, entrepreneurs and other leaders for real conversations about their leadership journeys. These aren't simply stories about success. They're conversations about the difficult decisions, challenges, values, and lessons that helped shape the person behind the position.
Charles Musgrove brings more than four decades of business and leadership experience to these conversations. As a CPA, Fractional CFO, entrepreneur, business advisor, coach, speaker, and teacher, Charles has spent his career working alongside business owners and leadership teams. His experience includes building businesses of his own and helping companies navigate financial challenges, operational decisions, growth, accountability, and change. That experience has taught him something important:
Leadership isn't theory. Leadership shows up in your decisions, your actions, your values, and the results you produce.

What does it take to lead 28 nations toward a single objective? On this episode of Answers That Count, General Breedlove shares hard-earned leadership principles from a career that culminated in commanding NATO forces.
He breaks down what real trust in a team looks like: not partial, not conditional, but complete. He explains why the best leaders surround themselves with people willing to disagree with them, a lesson he credits to Gen. Colin Powell.
General Breedlove argues that leadership isn't about rank; some of the most important leaders in any organization never hold a formal title.
Key takeaways:
→ Set the direction, then get out of the way and let capable people execute
→ Trust your team completely, until they prove that trust is unwarranted
→ Surround yourself with people who'll challenge your thinking, not just agree
→ Leadership exists at every level; you don't need a promotion to start leading
→ In fast-moving decisions, you need advisers who give you great information, not people who make the call for you
Whether you're leading a five-person team or a global organization, these principles apply.
