Entrepreneurship, Media, and the Future of Business Storytelling 

How The Daily Pitch Helps Managers, Leaders, and Entrepreneurs Get Better @ What They Do

My “why” is rooted in helping managers, leaders, and entrepreneurs get better at what they do. After decades working with Fortune 500 companies and with C-Suite leaders, I saw a gap between the insights executives have access to and the practical, everyday knowledge that small business owners and professionals need to thrive. I founded DissedMedia as a company focused on developing products and insights that will help those interested in business at any level build upon their knowledge and wisdom. It is really a marriage of my three passions, which are business, education, and creativity. I’ve been in the CPG industry (Consumer Product Goods), for over 30 years, higher education for 20, and a curious creator all my life. The Daily Pitch is a platform I designed to publish stories and insights about business, leadership, and entrepreneurship. The Daily Pitch Academy is an education platform I am building to help individuals at all levels learn about theories and practices I have taught for many years. It will also become a platform for consultants and coaches who can leverage it to help teach and inform too. The podcast, DissedMedia A Startup Story tells the story of starting DissedMedia from the very beginning. My purpose is to share not only what I’ve learned in boardrooms and classrooms, but also to democratize that wisdom so anyone building a business or leading a team can make smarter, faster, and more human decisions.

I began my career at Coca-Cola in Atlanta as a frontline contractor making $5.50 an hour. Seeing that growth required education and experience I didn’t yet have, I enrolled in college while working full-time and raising a family. Over two decades at Coca-Cola, I advanced professionally, earned my degree, pursued an MBA, and eventually began teaching.

After 20 years in the beverage industry, I transitioned into wine while completing a PhD in Business Administration with a focus on Industrial Organizational Psychology. Alongside my career in consumer goods, I’ve served in academia as an adjunct professor, department chair, and MBA program director—teaching or developing over 75 courses in business, spanning leadership, management, marketing, operations, and more.

These experiences inspired me to found DissedMedia, home to The Daily Pitch news platform and The Daily Pitch Academy. My work centers on translating business trends into meaningful insights for leaders, entrepreneurs, and everyday decision-makers.

BB25-40. Dianne Crampton. Stories Shift Leadership

Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

Building your business with Sara Troy and her guest Dianne Crampton, on air from October 7th

On this episode, we welcome Dianne Crampton, founder of the TIGERS 6 Principles and president of TIGERS Success Series. Dianne is the author of Becoming TIGERS: Leading Your Team to Success. In this unique leadership parable—crafted in the tradition of Native American storytelling—Dianne weaves a story within a story. At its heart is a father whose job is on the line because his well-intentioned passion comes out as shouting and micromanagement. His struggle mirrors a parable about two tiger brothers—one who inspires and coaches his diverse tribe, and another who rules with surliness and control. Dianne explores how stories gently shift mindsets and open leaders to real change, offering a fresh path away from toxic behaviors and toward collaborative, high-trust leadership. She also shares her vision for pairing Becoming TIGERS with the TIGERS Team Wheel game to support school counselors and help address root causes of conflict and even gun violence in schools. Tune in for an unforgettable conversation about the power of story to change how we lead, work, and live together.

Today, she certifies HR leaders, consultants, and coaches in the use of TIGERS resources so they can deliver measurable culture improvements inside their own organizations.

Started out as a teacher of English as a Second Language in the NYC public school system. I attended graduate school at night in French language and literature so I could become a college professor.  When I graduated, there were no jobs in the NY metro area so I transferred my skills to college administration.  I worked for three different colleges in continuing education.  I created online courses in Lotus Notes and then at ASME, I worked with engineers to create courses on Blackboard.  Then I worked for six different nonprofit professional associations. BA Brooklyn College, MA Harvard University, PhD New York University.

BB25-37. Dianne Crampton’s TIGERS Integration

Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

Building Your Business with Sara Troy and her guest Dianne Crapmton, on air from September 16th

I started TIGERS because I wanted to understand what makes a group of people truly work well together. As a manager, I was discouraged by how much emphasis was placed on individual achievement while the potential of people collaborating with purpose was ignored. I’ve always believed that employees aren’t costs to be controlled—they’re the real stakeholders in an organization’s success. After all, we spend more of our waking hours at work than with our families, and that time should be meaningful. Through decades of research and 34 years of practice, I’ve proven there is a much better way. When trust, interdependence, genuineness, empathy, risk resolution and shared success guide how we work, teams achieve extraordinary results—and people end their days feeling engaged, valued, and proud of what they’ve built together.

BB25-35. Donna Kunde. The Influencers Formula®

Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

Building your business with Sara Troy and her guest Donna Kunde, on air from September 1st.

I spent over half a century as the lead role in my own silent film. I was raised to be seen and not heard, and along the way, I attracted some toxic relationships as a result. That experience shaped my mission: to help others break free from silence and step fully into their voice. I believe the world is already searching for you—your voice, your story, and the way only you can tell it. That’s why I help mission-driven podcasters, authors, and creators amplify their message and build sustainable businesses using the power of audio. Through strategic systems like the Podcast Profit System™, Influence Radio™ Network, and The Influencers Formula®, I guide experienced experts to stop hiding and start showing up with clarity, consistency, and confidence. If your voice is the story only you can tell, my mission is to help the right people hear it.

Donna Kunde is the co-author of the internationally best-selling book The Influencers Formula® and founder of the Influence Radio™ Network. She began her journey as a professional musician in the U.S. Army, where she learned the discipline of performance and the power of connection through sound. For over half a century, she lived as the lead role in her own silent film—raised to be seen and not heard, often attracting toxic relationships as a result. That silence became the catalyst for her life’s work: helping others claim their voice and use it with purpose.

Along the way, Donna became a certified music therapist, integrative healing arts practitioner, and hypnotherapist—adding depth and compassion to her approach. In 2016, she joined the John Maxwell Team as a certified leadership coach, further sharpening her ability to guide others into influence and impact. Today, she helps entrepreneurs and creators turn podcasts into platforms that generate real results. Behind the microphone, she’s a grounded strategist and mentor with a heart for helping others be seen, be heard, and be easy to follow—without the hype or burnout. Off air, you’ll find her reflecting, writing, and living her message with the intention.
