In this episode of Management Matters, Jane Magness sits down with Marques Ogden to explore the powerful concept of the “Bison Mindset.”

Unlike cattle that run away from storms, bison charge straight into them—shortening the time spent in discomfort and building strength along the way. Marques shares how this philosophy applies to leadership, setbacks, career pivots, and organizational challenges.

Together, they unpack what resilience really looks like in the workplace, how grit is developed rather than inherited, and why adversity can become an accelerator for growth when faced head-on.

If you’re navigating uncertainty, leading through change, or rebuilding after a setback, this conversation will challenge you to stop circling the storm and start moving through it.
