What does it look like when a seasoned business executive brings private-sector rigor to a mission built around human potential?
In this episode of Power & Impact, I sit down with David Landsberg, President and CEO of Goodwill South Florida, to talk about a career that began at the Miami Herald during the upheaval of the early internet era and evolved into leading one of the most ambitious workforce-development organizations in the region.
David reflects on what he learned while navigating the collapse of traditional media, managing change inside a legacy institution, and leading through disruption. He also explains how those lessons shaped his approach at Goodwill, where the mission is not simply to train people, but to put them to work.
At Goodwill South Florida, that means creating real jobs and pathways for people with disabilities and others facing barriers to employment. This conversation is about leadership, adaptation, and the power of work to restore confidence, dignity, and a sense of belonging.
