Tune in to hear how your business can improve its culture! 5 Golden Nuggets Shared:Having a good, healthy culture in business is essential. As a leader, it’s your duty to define and create what type of culture your organization will have.  Accountability within your team is key. It’s hard to hold someone accountable when they don’t have the desire to be accountable, but if they know what their legacy is and why they keep coming to work it will help motivate them. Challenge your staff with these questions!No matter what job or position an individual holds, it’s important to make them feel valued. When a person feels valued, they thrive. Make sure your team knows you value them and how important they are to the success of the company. Typically, the solution to a problem at the surface is hidden deep down. You have to dive deep to find the root of a problem in order to fix it. This usually takes being honest with yourself and your team, while having an outside point of view come in to assess. It’s important to align yourself with someone who shares your vision and core values. Without the same shared vision and core values, there will only be conflict and your success will be jeopardized. Make sure you surround yourself with those compatible with you and your beliefs!  3 Bold and Kick-Ass Quotes: “We don’t manage people, we lead people.” - Meg Manke“It doesn’t matter who you are, everyone wants to feel valued, and everyone wants to grow.” - Dr. Rachel MK Headley“Our goal is to change the way business is done.” - Dr. Rachel MK Headley Click the hyperlink below to connect directly with Rachel and Meg!Website: https://rosegroupintl.com/ Meg’s Twitter: https://twitter.com/meg_manke Rachel’s Twitter: https://twitter.com/sprfsh_rachel?lang=en Meg’s LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/megmanke/ Rachel’s LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dr-rachel-mk-headley/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCPTAHTOfEfdWKVYz53YjLLw/videos Click the hyperlink below to connect directly with us!Website: http://www.ThinkBoldBeBold.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ThinkBoldBeBold/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thinkboldbebold/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/thinkboldbebold Sponsored by Mavericks Mastermind Until next time, Do Something Nice for Someone!

Sometimes timing is off, your not ready, or you have more to learn before you will succeed. It can be difficult to find your passion. Not everyone has that “ah ha” moment where they know. If this sounds like you, find something you are good at, keep practicing it, and eventually you will become passionate about it. If you don’t know something, go find someone who does and interview them. This is an easy way to gain new knowledge, make new connections, and be seen as an influencer in your industry.  Take a hard look at your assets, if you don’t have what you need than create them. Take inventory of what you do have, what you’re good at, and what you need to outsource.  For media, start local with a group of people who care about you and continuously work with them to get your message out there. This will help start your platform and eventually build you up towards higher levels of press and success.     3 Bold and Kick-Ass Quotes:  “There’s no substitute for hard work.

Both are key in truly overcoming an adversity and growing from it!  Listen with intent. Don’t think about how you can interject your own wisdom, but rather listen to what they are really saying.  Without a learning mindset, you won’t grow or develop.  Acknowledge that fear is a valid emotion, but don’t let it control you. Push through the fear and see how much you grow from it.  3 Bold and Kick-Ass Quotes: “Who you are defines what you do.” - James Kelley“As competitive people, sometimes we get so caught up in trying to be right that we forget the moments of doing right instead.” - James Kelley“Don’t let fear conquer you, conquer your fear.” - James Kelley Click the hyperlink below to connect directly with James!Website: https://www.drjameskelley.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/executivesafterhours Twitter: https://twitter.com/kelleyjamesb LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kelleyjamesb/ Click the hyperlink below to connect directly with us!Website: http://www.ThinkBoldBeBold.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ThinkBoldBeBold/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thinkboldbebold/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/thinkboldbebold Sponsored by Mavericks Mastermind Until next time, Do Something Nice for Someone!

Overview: In this episode, author of “Breaking Chains” and inspirational speaker, Blake B. Shelley comes back on the Think Bold, Be Bold Show! As a person with a disability, Blake has had to overcome many obstacles and challenges over the course of his life. At the age of six months, Blake was diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy (CP), which was due to a lack of oxygen at birth. CP has made everyday tasks (ADLs) such as eating, walking, and typing extremely difficult. However, it has also taught him how to persevere while not being defined by a disability. It was ingrained in Blake by his parents and support system to never give up on his goals. The confidence Blake found through his faith, family, and friends enabled him to attend George Fox University in Newberg, OR, on a scholarship through the Act Six Leadership Initiative, and earn a Bachelor of Arts degree in Christian Ministries. Since graduating from George Fox, Blake has devoted his time and resources to improving the quality of life of others, as well as educating the public about physical and emotional hurdles faced by young entrepreneurs. He has pursued this through promoting disability awareness in public schools, mentorship, disabilities advocacy, disabilities ministries, and educating the general public through speaking engagements. Using these experiences as a foundation, Blake is now bringing his message of breaking chains to those seeking success in their personal and professional lives. Tune in to hear Blake’s inspirational message and learn how you can overcome your own adversity! 5 Golden Nuggets Shared: 1. Make sure you walk the talk. If you are preaching something, you have to be executing it. This will boost your credibility and help you live a better quality of life. 2. Look at your life with a fresh perspective.

When things don’t go your way, look for a learning lesson or new growth opportunity. 3 Bold and Kick-Ass Quotes: 1. “When I was writing my book I would set goals for myself.” - Blake B. Shelley 2. “It’s my passion to get up on stage and inspire people to overcome their challenges.” - Blake B.

Out of the four types the best type of money to get is from your customers, if customers will pay you for it, you know your product or service is worthwhile. 3. If you are going to utilize tools in your business, ensure you know why you need that tool. If you can’t explain to yourself why you need it, you don’t need it yet. 4. Be cautious of automation and make sure you are focused on effectiveness and not just efficiency, one doesn’t always lead to the other. 5. Business is a two-way relationship that requires interactions.
