Gratitude may not sound like a business strategy, but science says otherwise.
In this thought-provoking solo episode, Chuck Blakeman takes a purposeful left turn to explore how gratitude directly impacts business performance, leadership effectiveness, and long-term success. Backed by neuroscience and real-world data, Chuck breaks down why emotional intelligence (EQ), not IQ or technical skill, is the true predictor of business success, and how gratitude is one of the fastest ways to grow it.
You’ll learn why:
- 90% of top performers have high EQ—not high IQ
- EQ drives over half of job performance and long-term success
- Gratitude practices measurably improve health, resilience, joy, and income
But here’s the twist:
Chuck explains why traditional gratitude lists don’t actually make us more grateful—and what does work instead.
This episode introduces a powerful, neuroscience-backed gratitude practice focused on receiving gratitude, not just expressing it. Chuck walks you through a simple, repeatable method that can be done in just a few minutes a week and can literally reduce stress, inflammation, threat detection, and burnout while increasing clarity, meaning, and joy.
🎧 Tune in and discover why gratitude isn’t “soft” it’s a serious competitive advantage.
