Founder

Madison Green

I believe that golf is more than just a sport—it's a tapestry of character, values, and timeless moments. It's where everyone, regardless of background or status, can come together and share a passion. A game that tells tales about a person more than words ever could. It's a realm where you should be unapologetically you, whether that means sporting the quirkiest attire or simply enjoying a chilled drink as you wait for your turn. In this world, a hearty laugh is just as crucial as a 300-yard drive, and while being able to count your strokes is handy, cherishing each one is everything.

Golf stands as a testament to our beliefs: that traditions can be honored, while making room for innovation; that the sport should be accessible; and that it's high time the greens echoed with more laughter, flair, and vigor. We hold onto the conviction that every round should be an adventure, everyone’s attire a statement, and every player a testament to the joyous, fun-filled future we envision for golf.

In Texas, we're known for our tenacity, our ability to forge ahead with vigor and determination. It's this very Texas spirit that breathes life into Madison Green. Texas has given the world legendary golfers like Ben Hogan and Byron Nelson, who not only mastered their craft but also embodied the spirit of golf as we see it – a blend of grit, grace, and unyielding passion. Their legacies remind us that golf is more than a game; it's a testament to the enduring spirit of those who play it.

This; is why I started Madison Green.

Be you, play fast, and remember... slow golf really does; suck.

Co-Founder, CTO

𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘁𝗿𝘂𝘁𝗵 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗮𝘃𝗼𝗶𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴?

Most meetings fail for one simple reason:
no one is naming the real issue.

So here’s the reset I teach inside The Intuition Effect:
𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗚𝘂𝘁-𝗖𝗵𝗲𝗰𝗸 𝗠𝗲𝗲𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴.

 Ten minutes.

 Three questions that remove the fog:

🟣 What feels off?
🟣 What are we avoiding?
🟣What would we do if fear wasn’t steering the call?

The moment those answers hit the table, the room changes.

Direction sharpens.

Tension drops.

People stop performing and start communicating.

Leaders move faster when they stop negotiating with what they already know.

If you’re ready to build a company that operates from grounded truth instead of hesitation,
this is the work.

This is 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝘂𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗘𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁™.

What are we hiding?

𝗪𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝘂𝗽 𝗳𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿.

I saw something this week that made me stop and think about how quickly things shift in business.

Big players don’t wait for trouble to get loud. 

They move when the signs are still small. 

They stay awake, even when things look steady.

That’s where most founders fall behind.

Not from lack of talent — from believing they still have time when they don’t.
This video is about that moment.

The moment when pressure shows up quietly… and leadership either kicks in or falls asleep at the wheel.

If you’re feeling a shift in your space and you’re not sure what it means, that’s the work we do inside 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝘂𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗘𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁™.

Reach out.

Let’s get you ahead of the curve again.

Mark Ledlow

This past week marked our busiest period in Washington DC for Ledlow Security Intelligence Group. The OSAC staff consistently impresses, and our visits with clients and industry colleagues led to the creation of valuable new connections.

A special acknowledgment goes to The Security Foundation (TSF) and Peggy O'Neill, whose team excelled in hosting over 1200 attendees. It was a pleasure to reconnect with many of our clients and forge new friendships.

At the US  Chamber of Commerce Business Risk Intelligence forum, my team greatly appreciated the engaging panel discussions. Kudos to Charles Randolph and the speakers, and congratulations on launching your new nonprofit; this type of collaboration and dialogue is essential for our industry.

As a networking tip, remember to follow up with your new contacts and express gratitude for their time. Demonstrating humility helps to earn trust and respect—it's all about playing the long game.
