This is one of the interviews for my "Leadership Biz Cafe" podcast that I couldn't wait to share - my interview with Stanford professor and all-around great guy, Bob Sutton.Bob is an organizational psychologist, Stanford professor, and best-selling author of “The No Asshole Rule”, “Good Boss, Bad Boss”, and “Scaling Up Excellence”.My conversation with Bob revolved around his latest book, “The Friction Project: How Smart Leaders Make the Right Things Easier and the Wrong Things Harder”, and this simple question - why are some organizations able to effortlessly adapt and transform to meeting changing market conditions, while others seem to be held back by the very processes that are meant to help get things done?Based on 7 years of research, Bob discovered that it all comes down to learning how to be a "friction fixer" who understands the difference between "good friction" and "bad friction".While I was (obviously) expecting Bob to be an incredibly insightful and well-informed guest on organizational culture – I hadn't expected to laugh as much as Bob and I did before, during, and after we went on the air.Listening to this episode, it's hard not to feel an undercurrent of warmth over the course of the episode, which gives this episode a lovely feel-good mood paired alongside fantastic insights and hilarious stories about how leaders can become “friction fixers” to improve the way their organization works.And at the end, Bob shares with me one of the best and kindest compliments I've ever received about my work. If only there was a way to hang an audio clip up on the refrigerator door....In other words, come for the laughs, stay for thought-provoking ideas you'll learn in this engaging conversation.

We put the question back to you in the DYOJO Podcast audience - where have some of your best hires come from? Some people hire from the franchise system thinking, "Well, if I'm in this franchise system, and they're in this franchise system, they could plug and play." Has this worked for you? A lot of contractors try to hire someone who has worked for a competitor. Expecting that they have some experience that will set everyone on the right foot. What have your results been with re-hires? I've shared many times before that my personal preference is I'd rather train new habits than retrain old habits. In this episode, I share some examples of doing this at multiple levels in a construction organization. From the technician level, superintendent, project manager, and even at the estimator level. This is what has worked best for my teams.

If I were to ask your employees if your organization is ready to navigate the next global crisis, what would they say? As much as we'd like to think we're prepared for whatever crisis comes our way, the pandemic and subsequent global supply chain crises clearly proved many organizations are vastly under-prepared to handle any kind of global crisis, let alone internal ones that risk upending our well-laid plans. So what can leaders do? How can you ensure your organization will fare better when the next storm arrives at your doorstep? In this episode of my “Leadership Biz Cafe” podcast, I spoke with a leader who not only successfully navigated his company through two major crises, but who's developed a practical guide any leader can put into practice right now to help them prepare for the next crisis. James Burstall is the CEO of Argonon, a major international TV production company based in London, with offices in New York, Los Angeles, Liverpool, and Glasgow. His company has produced a number of popular shows, including House Hunters International, Hidden Potential, Lost Treasures of Egypt, Attenborough and the Mammoth Grave, and The Masked Singer UK. James has worked as an executive producer and producer-director for broadcasters all over the world, and has been featured in the Financial Times, Guardian, Variety, Deadline and Daily Telegraph to name a few. I've invited James to join me on my podcast to talk about his book, “The Flexible Method: Prepare To Prosper In The Next Global Crisis”, which offers a practical guide for leaders based on James' own experience, as well as the crisis management experience of several other successful leaders, on how to prepare for the next crisis that will inevitably arise. Over the course of our conversation, James and I spoke about: The importance of calm and purposeful leadership and how to accomplish this during a crisis In times of crisis, what and how leaders should be communicating to their team How organizations can become more adaptable to external change while still holding true to their values How to use a crisis as an opportunity to tap into the collective creativity of your employees If you want to make sure your organization is truly prepared for that next global crisis waiting just around the corner, make some in your day to listen and learn how this successful leader helped his organization to not just survive, but thrive under the pressures and fallout of two major global crises. https://open.spotify.com/episode/0RgZscRvdA1nZnpfwxd2E3?si=c436ab7361d3460c Noteworthy links: Buy James' book “The Flexible Method” on Amazon* Learn more about James' work – Argonon *sponsored link that helps to support this podcast.

“One of the biggest stumbling blocks for organizations is an unwillingness to be brutally honest about the challenges they face.” There's no question leadership is becoming a more challenging role than it was 5-10 years ago. The rapid pace of change, the on-going uncertainties, even the very nature of the way we work have made being a leader a more strenuous and stressful job. But another factor that's making it challenging for people to succeed at leadership is that many people in leadership roles today haven't asked themselves a critical question before taking on the role – why do you want to be a leader? This question serves as the starting point for my conversation with best-selling author Adam Bryant about what those interested in taking on the leadership reins need to prepared for in this latest episode of my “Leadership Biz Cafe” podcast. Adam is probably best known for his New York Times column, “The Corner Office”. He's also the best-selling author of “The Corner Office: Indispensible and Unexpected Lessons from CEOs on How To Lead and Succeed” as well as “Quick and Nimble - Lessons From Leading CEOs on How To Create a Culture of Innovation”. Adam was a guest on my podcast two years ago when we talked about his book “The CEO Test - Master The Challenges That Make or Break All Leaders” and I'm delighted to welcome him back so we can talk about his latest, “The Leap to Leader: How Ambitious Managers Make the Jump to Leadership”. Adam and I had a frank and fascinating conversation about the realities of what it takes to move into a leadership role. But even those in leadership positions will benefit from hearing what Adam has to say. I hope you'll make some time to give this episode a listen, and do let me know what you think. https://open.spotify.com/episode/2x8e0p2X20HeVwe63t69NB?si=46193fe60a454f71 Noteworthy links: Buy Adam's book “The Leap to Leader” on Amazon* Learn more about Adam's work - adambryantbooks.com Listen to my previous conversation with Adam – Episode #91: Adam Bryant | Mastering Challenges That Make Or Break All Leaders *sponsored link that helps to support this podcast.

Today Kirbee shares her journey of a life changing accident and how it affected her in ways she never expected. Exhausted and burning the candle at both ends, she learned to fill her own cup, rather than “scraping the sediment from the bottom” and follow her full design. During our discussion Kirbee shares some beautiful insights: Living the quote, “Adversity introduces a man or a woman to themselves” What does it look like to take care of myself in a real way? Every day you've lived up until this point has prepared you for your moment of action The ideas that come to you are on loan to you It is a privilege and honor to embody your full design The space that you fill when you are fully you is irreplaceable And more!

There's no question we're living through a period of unprecedented change and uncertainty. But is this period of uncertainty something to dread, or does it present an opportunity to transform the way we lead to achieve enduring growth and success? My guest for this episode of “Leadership Biz Cafe”, Faisal Hoque, certainly sees the latter as being true and he presents a compelling case for why the rest of us should, too. Faisal Hoque is an accomplished entrepreneur, author, thought leader, and advisor to management teams and boards with more than 25 years of cross-industry success. He has successfully founded numerous companies, his latest being SHADOKA and NextChapter, where they focus on enabling sustainable and transformational changes. Faisal has worked with many private sector giants including GE, MasterCard, American Express, PepsiCo, IBM, Home Depot, Gartner, JP Morgan Chase, and others. His work has appeared in Forbes, The Wall Street Journal, Fast Company, Business Insider and Huffington Post among other publications. In this episode, Faisal and I discuss his best-selling book, “Lift – Fostering the Leader in You Amid Revolutionary Global Change”, which leads us to discuss the impacts of not just the COVID-19 pandemic and the on-going debate around Quiet Quitting, the Great Resignation, and the future of remote work, but of also how climate change and the spread of misinformation into numerous facets of society present unique challenges today's leaders need to be ready to meet head-on. It's a thoughtful and at times very personal, conversation between Faisal and me. And definitely one that will not only have you rethinking your outlook on these pressing issues, but it will also encourage you to embrace the opportunities for improvement and being the kind of leader that brings out the best in those they lead. https://open.spotify.com/episode/06dEN5DJgUkH1c9WJBE82Y Noteworthy links: Buy Faisal's book “Lift” on Amazon* Learn more about Faisal's work on his website: faisalhoque.com *sponsored link that helps to support this podcast.

If there's one thing leaders everywhere want to avoid it's conflict in the workplace. Not only is workplace conflict counterproductive and stressful, but it makes everyone feel uncomfortable. But what if the problem is not with conflict itself, but with how we mismanage conflict? That's the perspective of conflict expert Marlene Chism, my guest for this episode of “Leadership Biz Cafe”. Marlene is an expert on identifying and stopping workplace drama, and she's worked with leaders to help them build drama-free workplace cultures that drive growth and long term success. Marlene also happens to be one of the very first guests I had on my podcast over 10 years ago when we talked about her book “Stop Workplace Drama”. This time, I've invited Marlene back on my podcast to talk to me about her latest book “From Conflict to Courage: How To Stop Avoiding and Start Leading”*. Over the course of this episode, Marlene and I discuss: What we get wrong about conflict that makes leaders mismanage these situationsThe three distinct elements of conflict capacity and how they can help leaders better manage workplace conflictWhy we need to change the narrative we tell about ourselves if we are to manage conflict more effectivelyThe two types of resistance we should be focusing on to resolve workplace conflictsHow getting out of our comfort zone is key to successfully manage conflict If you've been enjoying my podcast, I'd like to ask you to please take a quick moment to rate our podcast on your preferred podcast platform.

There is no better first guest for the show than certified Enneagram coach, Sarah Wallace, founder of Enneagram MBA and host of her own podcast, Enneagram MBA. Sarah provides individual coaching, team training, and event speaking focused on women professionals, female founders, and organizations looking for guidance through the Enneagram to help them and their teams leverage their leadership strengths and navigate through reoccurring struggles to achieve both professional success and personal fulfillment. Telling women to be more confident isn't working. How about supporting women so they can get to know more about and begin to like themselves instead? In this episode we talk about...How women are using the Enneagram specifically, the parts they're finding most helpful, and why they're eager to keep learning more.The difference (and benefits!) to using a qualified support system to explore the Enneagram for yourself verses learning it alone.Sarah gives one of the best overviews of the nine types I've heard (in over 4 years) and debunks outdated generalizations we commonly hear about certain types.How each type hustles and the motivation behind it so that we can identify potentially unhealthy hustle habits, understand why not everyone can, or will, hustle in the same ways and what we might be looking for when we opt for hustle-like behavior.How our orientation to time (past, present, future) influences our approach to stress, processes, problem solving, and even conflict with others.___________________LINKS MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE:-- Biz to Brand: A 90-day small group program helping you realize the potential within your business so you can continue to grow in ways that make sense for you. https://katiemtaylor.co/b2b-- Stay connected to Sarah: https://www.enneagrammba.com/-- *FREE* 9 Types of Content for Enneagram Types: https://www.enneagrammba.com/katietaylor -- The Enneagram for Black Liberation by Chichi Agoram: https://www.chichiagorom.com/-- How Stereotypes Affect Us and What We Can Do About It: Buy it on Amazon___________________-- Learn how you can work with me: https://katiemtaylor.co/-- Download your free copy of Standout Marketing Message: What The Enneagram Can Tell You About Your Marketing: https://katiemtaylor.co/standoutmessage

With everything we've all experienced over the last two years, it can feel more challenging than ever to ask employees to stay the course and trust things will work out. So how do leaders inspire people to deliver their best despite their understandable concerns about the future? That's what I'll be exploring with my guest in this episode of my “Leadership Biz Cafe” podcast, Kim Cameron. Kim is the Professor Emeritus of Management and Organizations in the Ross School of Business and Professor of Higher Education in the School of Education at the University of Michigan. For the past 20 years, he's been researching the role virtuousness plays in improving employee performance and organizational success. His work has become so popular that he's been recognized as one of the top ten organizational scholars in the world whose work has been most frequently downloaded on Google. He's also the author of the book “Positively Energizing Leadership - Virtuous Actions and Relationships That Create High Performance”, which serves as the focus of my conversation with Kim in this episode. Over the course of this episode, some of the points Kim and I discuss include: The science behind positive energy and how it differs from other forms of energy (physical, mental, emotional, psychological).What research has shown the impact positive energy has on employee performance and retention.What attributes do leaders who are positive energizers possess - and how every leader can be like them.How leaders can be positive energizers for every member in their team.A powerful 4-step strategy to deal with employees who are “black holes” that drain energy from the team. Far from being a “nice-to-have” idea, my conversation with Kim here will help you understand why this is a necessity if your organization is to not achieve its objectives, but for your employees to flourish under your leadership.

With everything we've all experienced over the last two years, it can feel more challenging than ever to ask employees to stay the course and trust things will work out.

He's also the author of the book “Positively Energizing Leadership - Virtuous Actions and Relationships That Create High Performance”, which serves as the focus of my conversation with Kim in this episode.

Content Warning: discussion of human trafficking, sexual exploitation, abuse and child abuseIn this episode, Laura speaks with Alan Smyth, Executive Director for Saving Innocence and co-author of the book ‘Men! Fight for Me: The Role of Authentic Masculinity in Ending Sexual Exploitation and Trafficking'. Alan has been on the front lines of caring for child victims of trafficking for six years through his role with Saving Innocence in LA. He calls his perspective a “backstage pass” to the horrors of trafficking and from that position realized that men need a specific call to action for their part in fighting trafficking. That realization led to his book, co-authored with Jessica Midkiff, herself a trafficking survivor.Laura and Alan explore the hard realities of how trafficking happens and how it happens right here in our own neighborhoods. They discuss necessary steps to take in addressing the issue and Alan shares how his book seeks specifically to move men to action. The term ‘authentic masculinity' defines a more positive and less toxic version of masculinity than one popularly upheld and how reaching men on that level is part of the work he is called to. “If we're not willing to step into it, and we're not willing to look at it closely and deal with it, it's going to continue to be the fastest growing crime in the world… and that's just unacceptable.” Alan SmythAbout Alan Smyth:Currently Alan serves as the Executive Director for Saving Innocence, an anti-human trafficking, community-based organization focused on child victims of sex trafficking. Based in Los Angeles, Alan has responsibility over Direct Services and Business Operations. His main focus includes budgeting and resource development, strategic partnerships, staff development and client services. You can learn more about Saving Innocence at www.savinginnocence.org.“Fight For Me” are words he heard directly from a survivor of sex trafficking. Alan's unique view into this tragedy has given him a backstage pass to this horrific exploitation of children. Co-authored by Jessica Midkiff, herself a survivor of child trafficking, this book speaks directly to the hearts of men and our responsibility to step up and take leadership in the remedy.Resources:Producer Conroy Kanter: TraffickedSaving InnocenceSaving Innocence on InstagramFight For MeFight For Me on Instagram“Men!

As we move to a hybrid work environment, the organizational culture we foster both internally and remotely becomes critical to what we're able to achieve. So how can we ensure we're creating an environment - both virtually and in-person - that inspires employees to share their ideas and insights on how we can improve what we collectively do? That's what I'll be discussing with my guests, Karin Hurt and David Dye, on this episode of my podcast, “Leadership Biz Cafe”. Karin and David are the CEO and President of Let's Grow Leaders, a leadership training and consulting company. In addition, Karin hosts the popular LinkedIn show, Asking for a Friend, which I've actually had the pleasure to be a guest on. As for David, he's no stranger to the podcast world as he hosts his own podcast, “Leadership Without Losing Your Soul”. On top of that, Karin and David have written two books together, including their latest “Courageous Cultures: How to Build Teams of Micro-Innovators, Problem Solvers, and Customer Advocates”, which serves as the focus of our conversation. Over the course of this episode, Karin, David, and I discuss: What makes for a courageous culture and why it's critical to your organization's ability to innovate and adapt.Why it's harder for employees to speak up about making smaller changes than promoting large scale change within the organization.What their research has shown as being the big reason why a majority of employees don't want to share their ideas with their bosses.The ways leaders respond to their employees which actually leads them to shut down instead of bringing their best efforts to work. https://open.spotify.com/episode/2upIRzIgbrl0DhGkBBGbAY Noteworthy links: Buy Karin and David's book “Courageous Culture” on Amazon*Learn more about Karin and David's work - letsgrowleaders.com. *Sponsored link used to support podcast.

“It’s very unlikely I'll have a full-time position with an orchestra as a pianist as my career. That is not a thing that happens to too many people these days. So, if not that, sink or swim, I have to start thinking about my career in a different way.”Marianne Parker is one of the most active and vibrant musicians I know. Just to name a few things she has going on: performances and commissioning works with her piano and marimba duo, L&M; recording works by Haitian composers; curating an anthology of 21st century works for solo piano through New Music Shelf; producing performances with New Music Chicago along with other administrative tasks; a packed performance and teaching schedule; and still has time to spend with her family, go to parks with her lovely dog, build a garden, hiking, running, what else?! The great thing about Marianne, amongst her active and busy lifestyle, is she always has a very positive and joyous attitude. And this entirely comes through in our conversation. We discuss nearly all of the things listed above, along with what it’s like learning to compose from a performers perspective, the upcoming premiere of Stephanie Ann Boyd’s Flower Catalog, comedy podcasts, Ear Taxi, New Music Gathering, the pairing concerts with violist Michael Hall, and so much more in episode 18 of the Making Noise Podcast.

Over the many years I've been doing this leadership podcast, one of the common themes that comes up in any given episode is the fact that leadership is not about you; it's about the people you lead. That's why I'm delighted to speak with my friend (and fellow Canadian) Dan Pontefract about why the most successful leaders are those who care on this episode of "Leadership Biz Cafe". Dan is the founder and CEO of The Pontefract Group, a firm that improves the state of leadership and organizational culture. He is also an adjunct professor at the University of Victoria Gustavson School of Business. Prior to this, Dan was the Chief Envisioner and Chief Learning Officer at TELUS—a Canadian telecommunications company. Dan is and the best selling author of four books, including this latest "LEAD. CARE. WIN." which is what Dan and I discuss in this episode. Over the course of our discussion, some of the topics Dan and I talk about include: Why leaders need to be relatable and how the way we view our mistakes is directly connected to it.How so many leaders are poor at managing their time and the critical activity they need to schedule in their work flow.How leaders can be more present in order to better connect with their employees.Why leaders need to make a commitment to balance if they are to both attract and retain the best talent to their teams and organization. https://open.spotify.com/episode/3b4FQb96z48dsnCzUiwTV0 Noteworthy links: Buy Dan Pontefract's book “Lead.

Jordan is a 25-year-old corporate refuge! He left corporate to follow his curiosity and passion. Using his idea of a Cloud Nine life, he is a trailblazer for positive change and optimism, sharing the belief that our daily actions can help us overcome stress and anxiety. The First Phase Jordan's first phase was going through the motions, running on the hamster wheel of get good grades, play sports, go to a good college, get good internships, get a good job and make money. Basically, Jordan was following what others thought his path should be. The Second Phase Jordan is spending is second phase trailblazing a path for others to think about personal development in a new way. By using fictional storytelling, Jordan writes books, coaches and speaks about how to live our lives on cloud nine! Cloud Nine Don't worry, we are not going to get all dreamy on you. Jordan uses the term cloud nine to refer to living a positive fulfilling life of purpose. His most recent book, “The Journey to Cloud Nine” is a fictional story about a man who made choices in his life and at 60 years of age, he begins to see that if only he'd made other decisions, he could have been living on cloud nine instead of living alone and suffering with depression. It's Never Too Early We focus on it never being too late to start something new. But in this episode, we are really looking at it's never too early to start the second phase. Passion doesn't always mean purpose. If you are not being fulfilled, it's time to make a change and move on to the next phase. Jordan began his second phase by writing a book. The book led to speaking engagements, a TEDx Talk, and a podcast. His second book was published in February 2020 and his third book will be published in the Spring of 2021. Not everyone finds their gifts so early. But it didn't happen for Jordan overnight. It took a lot of exploration of his curiosity. The important thing to note is that is a matter of optimizing your exploration of curiosity to find your passion and ultimate purpose and finding the cloud nine. Are you a Pilot, Co-Pilot or the Passenger? The passenger The passenger let's societal expectations navigate their path for them. They tend to follow the recommendations of others. The Pilot The pilot is the person that takes control of their journey. They follow their gut, their heart, their intuition. Live and learn through the experience. Action brings a lot of clarity. The Co-Pilot The co-pilot provides the perspective that we don't have to go through the journey alone. They don't take control but provide the right recommendations and guidance. It's really hard to go about any journey alone. The co-pilot serves as the companion on the journey. Favorite quote “Somebody once told me that definition of hell: On my last day on this earth, the person who I became will meet the person I could have become, and those two people are total strangers.” “But somebody also once told me the definition of heaven: On my last day on this earth, the person who I became will meet the person I could have become, and those two people are identical twins.” – Ed Mylett In making decisions, you want to minimize the gap between who you became and who you could have become. In every moment, in every choice, you are making the choice that is going to minimize regret. Gut, intuition, and feel are so important for making decisions. You can measure character of a person by the choices they make. There is never a right or wrong choice but a right or wrong way to view the choice you made. The approach taken for making the decision is what is important to ensure you aren't going to look back and regret that decision. Fully immerse yourself in the decision and be totally content with the decision that you made. About Jerry Jerry is the main character, a fictional character in “The Journey to Cloud Nine”. Jerry's life was being dictated for him and is who Jordan is warning himself not to become. It's very easy to let others dictate our life choices. Before you can make decisions for yourself and gain the support of others, you have to do the work to evaluate the decision and know you are on the right path. When people see that you've done your work and know the value within your decision, they will be more apt to accept it and support you. You have to be your own co-pilot first. Identify Your Co-Pilots Know who respects you and the depth of your ability to make decisions for yourself. It comes back to logic versus intuition. You have to take a step back and evaluate the importance of having what you need versus doing something that you will want to do. It really comes down to communication and being real and raw and honest when telling people what you want to do or need to do. Human Connection As humans we need social contact. No matter how shy or introverted you are, having a couple of key people to be yourself with is important for self-fulfillment. Connections add value to your life, but you also add value to their life. Our daily actions can help overcome stress and anxiety. Making connections and building relationships can help with decreasing the stress and anxiety too. JERI Jordan uses his JERI method to write his books. It changes the perspective of reading self-help books. J – It's about the journey, not the destination E – The emotional connection with the characters R – Reducing the stress I – Imagitivetation – imagination + creativity + interpretation + implementation About Jordan Jordan Gross is a corporate refugee turned trailblazer for positive change and optimism, sharing the belief that our daily actions can help us overcome stress and anxiety. He is a 25-year-old guy just tyring to create something meaningful for himself and for others.

What is nexus Amazon? Learn why it's essential to learn about the tax nexus laws when you ship your Amazon items across different states. How do we determine where a business has sales tax nexus? What is “nexus”? You have a sufficient presence in a state to have sales tax responsibility. Sales Tax nexus results how? Physical presence Economic nexus Affiliates Employees, contractors, renting or leasing property The most common one for online businesses is an economic and physical presence. Physical presence If you’re based outside the USA, you may still have a physical presence if you have inventory stored there, including in FBA warehouses. A number of FBA warehouses have been audited - eg: Wisconsin Economic Nexus Passing certain thresholds on Nexus Amazon. Most common is $100K revenue, the other 200 transactions. They vary a lot in how they define. Example If I ship in stuff to LA (CA), and it gets moved into 3 states… bear in mind that Amazon will redistribute the inventory across 40 states! If the inventory were just in 3 warehouses (in 3 different states), that means you have nexus in those 3 states (ignoring Marketplace Facilitator Laws). You would need to get a sales tax permit, collect and remit sales tax on Nexus Amazon. Marketplace Facilitator Laws states Generally, you don’t have to get a permit. However, in general, if you’re selling in a marketplace, you don’t have much. How do we figure out which states have sales made? DIY Pull the transactions out and do some manual excel work with a pivot table. Taxjar also has a tool that is helpful. Getting help There is a link on their website that has information which also provides services and analyses sales state by state. Analysis fee counts towards the first invoice if a client of TaxValet. For nexus analysis, you look at many factors: Transactions Where inventory is being stored Other areas like affiliates, other businesses, contractors Affiliates Employees, contractors, renting or leasing property Visiting trade shows can cause tax nexus! Generally working with an affiliate doesn’t cause an issue but if affiliates are a substantial share of your revenue, it could create sales tax nexus. Getting permits Implications for International businesses Does it make a difference where you’re based? (Which country) It doesn’t make any difference in theory for Nexus Amazon. There is a different process for international sellers. What is the basic process of registration for sales tax for international sellers? Getting permit TIN It can be difficult to submit the permit without a TIN people; you’d need an EIN (tax identity) for the company EIN is simple - for companies - it’s also cheap to use an online service say $100 to get it for you. TIN is much more challenging - it takes 3-4 months. Alex has a partner who only does TINs for international businesses. Online systems These don’t work for international sellers eg: you can’t put in the address etc. But many States have a paper application so use these if you’re outside the USA. Other issues paying Sales Taxes Paying sales tax They often will only take a bank account and only a US bank account! That means you can’t pay the tax! Alex cleaned up for an Amazon seller based in Poland Got permits in 20 states without a TIN. They came after her for not paying the tax. She had the money but in a non-US bank account. Opening a US bank account You’ll need a TIN to get this. You need typically to visit the US to open a US bank account. However, Alex has a partner who can do this for you. The States make it hard to do this! You can’t use a Transferwise number! Payoneer also doesn’t work. You need a bona fide bank account.

What is the greatest adversity you have faced? How did you get through it and what happened afterward? In this episode of the 10 Factor guest Marcus Aurelius Anderson takes us through his own personal adversity and comeback journey. Then we fast forward to today and how he speaks, writes, inspires and coaches others to overcome their own Adversities to actualize their personal definition of success. Marcus Aurelius Anderson is an author, Keynote Speaker, TEDx Speaker and executive Mindset Coach. While preparing to deploy with the U.S. Army, Marcus suffered a severe spinal injury that left him paralyzed. After dying on the operating table twice, the surgeons saved his life, but told him he'd never walk again. Having no other option, Marcus started doing some brutally honest soul searching, looking for the lesson to be learned from his injury. Once he started seeing his Adversity as a gift instead of a curse, something miraculous began to happen... Marcus now speaks, writes, inspires and coaches others to overcome their own Adversities to actualize their personal definition of success. His TEDx talk “The Gift of Adversity” tells of how we can use our Adversity to make us into better leaders, citizens and human beings. In this episode of The 10 Factor find out: How Marcus’s life changed on a dime. Why when you have no other choice the choice is simple. What happened when Marcus started seeing his adversity as a gift instead of a curse. How a primary purpose or objective can motivate you more than you ever thought possible. Why misery loves company but not as much as mediocrity. The thought process Marcus went through when he thought he was never going to walk again. About the tremendous power we all have but never touch on. How charging a client too little can be detrimental to both parties. Why adversity is relative and is different for each person. The reason most of us don’t need more time; we need a deadline. The value of being grateful not only for the good things but the bad things that happen too.

The twenty-fifth anniversary of the standoff at the Branch Davidian compound is approaching, and with it comes a veritable barrage of material on Waco, David Koresh, and how it all went pear-shaped. Toby Ball and I selected two of the higher-profile, A&E's documentary event Waco: Madman Or Messiah and the just-born Paramount Network's big-splash mini-series starring Taylor Kitsch, Waco. Does either project make sense of the tragedy that took place in Texas in 1993? Do you need to watch both -- or either? And do projects devoted to the events need to pick a side? Toby suggested that we use our Cold Case time to look back at a Best Documentary winner from 1973: Marjoe, a peek behind the Pentecostal curtain with former child-prodigy preacher, (then-)current cheerful whistle-blower Marjoe Gortner. And you thought YOU were cynical about religious fund-raising...
