Lessons From A Go-Giver with Bob Burg

“Kindness is never wasted—it expands into greatness.” What happens when a broadcaster-turned-salesman discovers that giving is the fastest path to success? In this episode, I talk with Bob Burg, co-author of The Go-Giver, about kindness, influence, and building a life around service. This episode is sponsored by my new book BRANDJITSU, helping you find, shape, and share your story with the world. In This Episode In this episode, Michael Dargie speaks with Bob Burg, speaker, author, and co-creator of the international bestseller The Go-Giver. Known for its simple but powerful message—that shifting focus from getting to giving leads to success—The Go-Giver has sold over a million copies worldwide and become a staple in leadership, business, and personal development . Bob shares how he stumbled into sales after early stints in radio and television. With no formal training, he failed fast—until a desperate trip to a bookstore introduced him to the work of Tom Hopkins and Zig Ziglar. Devouring their books, he quickly learned that sales wasn’t about talking people into something, but about providing real value. That discovery launched a lifelong pursuit of learning, leading him into the world of personal development classics like How to Win Friends and Influence People and Think and Grow Rich . The conversation spans from his childhood dream of playing third base for the Boston Red Sox to his career as a sought-after speaker, traveling the world to talk about influence, persuasion, and service. Bob explains why nobody buys because of your quota or goals—they buy because they believe they’ll be better off. He also shares stories about life in Jupiter, Florida, with his rescue cat Buddy, his admiration for hockey legend Bobby Orr, and his simple joys like reading over coffee and bagels . Looking ahead, Bob is reworking his book Adversaries into Allies into a new edition called Genuine Influence: How to Master the Art of Persuasion, slated for release in 2026. His advice to “rebels in waiting” is grounded and practical: know your cause, find systems and mentors, take action, persist through the no’s, and never mistake failure for finality . At its heart, this episode is about shifting perspective—success isn’t about self-focus, it’s about making every person and moment better off for having crossed your path.
