Introducing Our New Podcast: The Sawgrass Group Leadership Academy
First episode drops April 7
We’re thrilled to announce the launch of a brand-new podcast from Familiar Wilsons Media: The Sawgrass Group Leadership Academy, hosted by Josh Wilson (that’s me) and leadership expert Brent Ransom. The first episode goes live on April 7, and we couldn’t be more excited to share it with you.
This show is designed for leaders at every stage—whether you’re just stepping into a new role, navigating the middle stretch of your career, or mentoring the next generation. Each episode delivers accessible, actionable insights rooted in real-world leadership challenges. Think of it as your personal leadership development seminar—on demand, in your pocket.
Meet My Co-Host: Brent Ransom (in other words: THE EXPERT)
Brent is the Founder and CEO of Sawgrass Group, Inc., a consulting firm that specializes in leadership assessment and development. For nearly two decades, Brent has helped leaders across public safety, human resources, government, nonprofits, and the corporate world build stronger teams and healthier workplaces.
With advanced degrees in higher education administration and industrial-organizational psychology—plus top-tier certifications in HR and talent development—Brent brings a sharp, compassionate lens to what it really means to lead with purpose and clarity.
What to Expect - The Sawgrass Group Leadership Academy explores the climb and the call of leadership—how it tests us, grows us, and calls us to be better. In every episode, we focus on foundational concepts that apply across industries and roles. Brent will break down everything from mindset and communication to team dynamics and decision-making.
Our first episode dives into the essential starting point for any leader: attitude. Before strategy, before skills, before tools—leadership begins with how you show up.
