Quality Time Podcast: The Daily Work of Leadership with Jon Dario
February 17, 2026
Jon Dario has spent 30 years proving that operational excellence works the same whether you're running one of retail’s busiest stores or overseeing $1.7 billion in business across multiple locations. The problem he keeps solving? Getting consistent results when everything is moving fast and nothing ever slows down. Strategy sounds great in the conference room. But when that strategy hits the floor, things can fall apart. Jon and Dan explore why that happens. Plus, there's a 90s jingle you forgot about until right now. But you’ll definitely be singing it soon!
