At the 2025 edition of the North American Manufacturing Excellence Summit series we sat down with Seth Davies of Competitive Solutions to talk about his B2B podcast, The Pulse of High Performance.

Executive Platforms has collaborated with Competitive Solutions since its earliest days, and there are few organizations better positioned to speak to senior executives about how they have achieved success and what advice they would want to share with an audience of business leaders at all stages of their careers and working lives. In this episode we talk to Seth about the past, present, and future of his show in the hopes that some of our listeners will find it valuable as well. Enjoy!
