A 2-minute guided mindfulness reset designed to help you pause, breathe, and reconnect with gratitude in the middle of your day. Narrated with a warm, calming voice and soft ambient background.

Imagine an engineer who’s gone from writing code to building a venture-backed startup—now creating AI-powered tools tailored for fashion brands in New York. That’s Harish Chandramowli, Co-Founder of Flaire. His journey is a compelling example of the kind of leadership, innovation, and resilience we highlight on the Breakfast Leadership Show.

With a twelve-year engineering career at organizations like MongoDB, Bloomberg, and Johns Hopkins, Harish made the leap into entrepreneurship by co-founding Flaire—an ERP platform that fuses artificial intelligence with user-centered design for retail. What makes Harish’s story stand out is his ability to blend deep technical expertise with the gritty, hands-on realities of scaling a business.

Whether he’s designing smarter code-review workflows (like Greptile, which dramatically reduces dev feedback cycles) or jumping into client sales conversations, Harish brings a unique perspective. He’s learned firsthand how to build high-performing remote teams rooted in trust, and how small, strategic process bets can drive sustainable growth.

In this episode of the Breakfast Leadership Show, Michael sits down with Mike Goldman to challenge the status quo of performance management. Traditional reviews often disengage employees and hinder organizational progress. Instead, Mike shares why leaders must focus on people growth as the true driver of profit.

They dive into the concept of “high-performance math” — showing that investing in top performers yields the greatest returns. Too often, leaders spend energy on underperformers while high performers walk away due to toxic culture or poor management.

Mike also introduces his simple talent management framework, designed to replace outdated annual reviews with ongoing coaching, accountability, and development. His insights, drawn from his latest book, stress the importance of making tough calls, avoiding mediocrity, and building an environment where employees actually look forward to work.

A must-listen for leaders ready to transform how they grow and retain talent.
