In this episode, Kevin speaks with Dr. Scott Hutcheson about an unconventional approach to leadership: biohacking. Dr. Hutcheson shares his behavioral leadership model, built around three biodynamic channels: warmth, competence, and gravitas. He identifies specific, observable behaviors within each channel that send powerful signals to teams, signals that either inspire connection and confidence or lead to disengagement. They also discuss how everyday actions like being punctual, actively listening, and managing workload effectively are more than simple good habits. These behaviors function as leadership signals that directly shape how teams perceive their leaders and, ultimately, how they perform.

He is a biosocial scientist and senior lecturer at Purdue University, where he studies leadership, teamwork, and organizational performance through the biology of behavior. After a Type 2 diabetes diagnosis, he turned to biohacking—using data and feedback loops to optimize health—and soon recognized that the same principles could transform leadership. With over 30 years of experience, Scott has advised the White House, Fortune 400 companies, startups, nonprofits, and communities worldwide. He has worked with more than 4,000 leaders across 147 countries. His TED Talk on the “Science of Prospection” has been viewed over 1.3 million times, and his Forbes column reaches millions of readers, ranking in the top 0.1% of contributors.
