Now the election is over, the real work begins.

Show Your Value with Lee Benson

I want to tackle an urgent question: What comes after the election? It's not a time to rest, to lean back, or to let others take the wheel. The real work begins now.
I share my thoughts on why value creation behaviors must be relentless—why we cannot afford to stop building, improving, and demanding accountability. Too often, those who rig the game to take value out of the world never rest. Why should we?
Governments should exist to improve the conditions for us to live, work, learn, and play—at a lowering cost. Yet, time after time, we see the opposite. We settle for mediocrity and let distractions like tribalism and name-calling steer us away from what matters: better outcomes for all of us.
This episode is about responsibility, accountability, and shining a light on what's broken. It’s about rejecting the status quo and fighting for progress—not by waiting for leaders to deliver miracles but by holding them to a higher standard.
I’ll walk you through the mindset that’s helped me in business and in life: holistic value creation. From material and emotional value to the critical importance of connectedness, these principles apply not just to entrepreneurship but to our roles as citizens, family members, and community builders.
We’ll talk about uncertainty—why it’s inevitable and why embracing it, rather than fearing it, can propel you forward. From voting to starting a business, from leading a family to shaping a nation, the principles remain the same: always move forward, always create value, and never settle for less.
Whether you’re one person casting a vote or a leader guiding a team, this episode challenges you to step up, stay vigilant, and stay committed to creating net-positive outcomes. One person can make a difference. Let’s talk about how.
