The Corporate Bartender - Deming, Dexter, Death Threats, & Disruption with Doug Hall

What's up everyone and welcome to The Corporate Bartender!

Oh. My. God. Today's TCB is EPIC! We're talking about Deming, we're talking about bourbon, we're talking about disruption. Everything from big ideas, to systems thinking. I mean, this episode is amazing ! (I know I say that a lot). 

We've got Doug Hall on the program. Don't know Doug? You need to. Stick around!

He's the author of Proactive Problem Solving, the founder of Eureka! Ranch and Brain Brew Distillery. Doug is an innovation expert, and the author of seven other books. He started life as a chemical engineer, and is on the board of the Deming institute.

This was a BANGER conversation, my favorite of 2025 so far, and I know you're gonna dig it!

If you want to skip straight to the interview, 3:47 is your spot!

What is The Corporate Bartender?

The Corporate Bartender is where people leaders come to think out loud.

Hosted by Eric and Lori Spencer, this long-running show is part podcast, part professional community, and part midweek reset for HR, Talent, L&D, and business leaders navigating the human side of work.

Each episode features thoughtful conversations with trusted experts and guest “bartenders” on timely leadership and workplace topics — from culture and burnout to organizational change, psychological safety, and what’s actually working right now.

It’s smart, practical, and intentionally human… with just enough humor to remind us we’re all still people.

Pull up a stool — there’s always an open seat at the bar.
