Today, I’m joined by Catherine Chabiron & Fabrice Bernhard, and we're talking about Learning to Scale your Business. Catherine is a Lean Management Sensei, a master with 40 years of experience, and an author of multiple books and articles on lean methodology. She helps companies reinvent their culture and foster greater employee engagement in the face of growth. Fabrice co-founded Theodo, a software company, in 2009, which has grown on average 50% a year for the last eight years and generated over $95 million turnover in 2022. Their impressive growth is a testament to their Lean management strategy, which is inspired by the Toyota Production System. I’m excited to have them both on the show to learn how to use lean techniques to get people engaged as you are learning to scale your business.

For anyone who’s ever felt that leadership advice can be too theoretical or disconnected from reality, Deep Leadership offers a grounded alternative. Host Jon S. Rennie operates from a simple, powerful belief: “Leadership is a People Business.” This isn’t about abstract concepts; it’s about the tangible, often messy work of guiding teams and organizations. Jon brings a unique perspective shaped by his time as a Cold War Submarine Officer and over two decades leading within Corporate America before founding his own manufacturing company. In each episode, he translates that extensive experience into practical, actionable insights you can apply immediately. The conversations here delve into the core of what makes leadership work-or fail-across business, culture, and society. You’ll hear from Jon and a variety of expert guests as they explore the philosophical and practical dimensions of guiding people, discussing everything from daily management challenges to broader cultural forces that shape how we work. This podcast is built on the conviction that leadership matters profoundly, and that getting it right requires depth, reflection, and a relentless focus on the human element. Tune in for thoughtful discussions that cut through the noise and get to the heart of leading well.
