Reverse Engineering Intentional & Authentic Relationships

by Jeff Bond

I'm the Co-Founder of Chat With Leaders Media and People First Elevation Team, where my team and I help values-driven businesses create content that strengthens relationships, fuels engagement, and drives high-performing cultures. We partner with communications, marketing, and people teams to produce thought-leadership podcasts, executive messaging, and event content. My team and I also work with leaders to transform company meetings into culture-defining moments—ensuring they align teams, elevate key voices, and inspire action. As a board member of Conscious Capitalism Atlanta, I advocate for business as a force for good. Outside of work, I’m passionate about faith, family, and using influence to create lasting impact.

James Carbary is the Author of Content-Based Networking, Founder of Sweet Fish Media (an Inc. 5000 B2B podcasting agency), Young Married Christian (a media company on a mission to end the foster care crisis), and Showcase (a SaaS platform that helps you build an audience).

Jeff chat’s with James about how he’s learned to reverse engineer meaningful relationships that have tremendously impacted his business growth, how his worldviews around faith have impacted his leadership, how he’s being challenged as a business leader in the midst of rapid growth, and some incredibly helpful resources that have been helping him find more wisdom and clarity around his leadership.
