Revealing an eight-year study with Don Yaeger & Gen. Bernie Banks
Corporate Competitor Podcast Episode 231
How do you turn a moment into lasting momentum?
In this special edition episode, Don Yaeger is joined by leadership expert and retired Brigadier General Dr. Bernie Banks to reveal the science (and the strategy) behind momentum. Together, they co-authored The New Science of Momentum to help leaders recognize the spark, capture it, and turn it into unstoppable progress in business, sports, politics, and military.
From commanding in Desert Storm to teaching at West Point and Rice University to transforming organizations, Bernie’s perspective is battle-tested, data-backed, and built to help leaders at every level create their own momentum shift.

"Don is one of the best storytellers I’ve ever met. I’ve known him for a long time and every time we talk I walk away wiser and more inspired. He is the best in the business at teaching you a skill – storytelling – that will last you a lifetime.”
“The ability for athletes to get hired is carried on through you because you are putting out the message that lessons learned from sports are important in life. It is embedded in this podcast, what you’re doing is significant.”
We speak the same language. I am inspired by the stories you tell, the people you have met, and the things you’ve done. Those of us that are competitors like to follow others that have been down that journey, so it is always fun talking to you!”
“Many of the leaders I have worked with were excellent athletes, and I think there is a direct correlation. You’re one of the few people that really has pursued this study, Don. Keep up the great work. What you are doing really makes a difference.”
“Don, you have mastered the skill of interviewing and asking great questions. That is a great skill all leaders need in order to understand their team members’ thought processes.”
