The frameworks in this book weren't built in a boardroom.
Darryl Bosshardt's career has taken an unusual path — from directing programs at
Boy Scout summer camps, where he first learned that a seasonal staff of
young people could deliver extraordinary experiences if the right conditions were in place,
to selling Baldwin pianos, to managing Pybus Point Lodge,
a remote wilderness lodge in Southeast Alaska where every element of the Culture Honeycomb
was pressure-tested with real guests who had traveled thousands of miles to be there.
Along the way, he advised small businesses and government contractors through the
U.S. Small Business Development Center and PTAC programs,
and spent years in leadership at Redmond Inc., a Utah-based manufacturer
widely recognized for its distinctive organizational culture.
He holds an MBA from Western Governors University and a
B.S. from Southern Utah University. He's a former volunteer EMT
and a hobby beekeeper — the honeycomb was personal before it was a framework.
Darryl has shared these ideas from a lot of stages — trade show keynotes,
university lectures, executive peer groups like
Vistage and EO, and as a guest on
numerous podcasts exploring culture, leadership,
and what it actually takes to earn trust.
He believes the best leadership lessons happen in wild places —
and that the small things are always the big things.
