Steve Preston is the CEO of Goodwill Industries. Though Goodwill is known for big stores where people can donate clothes and buy them secondhand, those stores are just the first level of what Goodwill Industries are about. Those stores fund an international organization that provides job training, employment placement services and other community-based programs for people who face barriers in their employment. Steve joins Jay to discuss the ways Goodwill Industries support veterans and individuals who lack job experience, an education, or face employment challenges, such as those people who are formerly incarcerated. Today's episode was produced by Tani Levitt and Mijon Zulu. To check out more episodes or to learn more about the show, you can visit our website Allaboutchangepodcast.com.

Chris Hornbecker — What Comes Next: Founders, Exits, and the Future of AI In this episode of Amplified CEO , Richard Stroupe sits down with Chris Hornbecker , a serial founder and former tech CEO with multiple successful exits, including companies like Xgility and Solutions Developers. Together, they explore what life looks like after building and selling a business — from identity shifts to the search for purpose beyond the exit.
