What happens when a Wall-Street-caliber energy trader steps off the trading floor to build pathways to the dignity of work for first-gen students? On this episode of Inside the C-Suite, Christy sits down with Paul Posoli - former energy executive (Enron, Calpine, Bear Stearns, J.P. Morgan) turned founder and president of CareerSpring. What starts as a cheetah-shoes networking story turns into a masterclass on moving from success to significance. From a life-altering ask by a beloved school leader to the “sandwiches moment” that reset his compass, Paul opens up about impact and why opportunity shouldn’t depend on the zip code you’re born into. They unpack: From Success to Significance: The mindset shift sparked by mid-career reflection (and a hard lesson watching a visionary founder get “whacked”) that redefined what a meaningful legacy looks like. The Sandwiches Story: The humbling moment that reframed service - and why no act of contribution is beneath a leader. CareerSpring’s Engine: A community-powered platform that’s already supported 33,000+ first-gen/low-income students from 1,250 colleges, with 550 partner orgs, 550 on-career videos, and ~900 direct offers - all designed to convert potential into full employment, not underemployment. Advisors at Scale: Why a single warm intro changes a life - and how today’s advisees are becoming tomorrow’s advisors (1,600 advisors pre-migration; rebuilding on a new platform and growing). AI, Work, and the Middle Class: A clear-eyed take on productivity gains, job displacement, and why capitalism requires an intentional pipeline into quality, dignified work. Leadership Without the Pedestal: Being approachable without being everyone’s “bestie,” holding firm to values, and measuring impact by how people feel after they interact with you. If you care about talent, mobility, impact, or the future of work - or you’re simply weighing your own second-half pivot - this conversation is equal parts practical and heart-forward. Because leadership isn’t just about making the right call on a volatile market. It’s about showing up, opening doors, and building the kind of tomorrow where more people get to walk through them.
