CHROs, your role has never been more vital or more complex. AI, shifting politics, hybrid work, and evolving employee expectations, have taken the front seat in today's world of work. The future says you're no longer just managing HR, you're redefining the workplace itself. That's exactly why I launched Future of Work Leaders, a supportive global community built specifically for CHROs who are ready to move beyond traditional HR and are committed to building future-ready organizations.  In this episode, I share highlights from our very first 2025 gathering, where CHROs from some of the world's most respected brands came together to discuss the real challenges and opportunities shaping the future of work. I'm taking you behind the scenes of our inaugural Future of Work Leaders CHRO event, hosted at the Neiman Marcus Innovation Hub in Dallas. We brought together 40 CHROs from organizations like Johnson & Johnson, Northrop Grumman, Tractor Supply, Amway, and others to have deep, honest conversations about what's really driving change today. Topics like the evolving role of DEI, AI integration, hybrid work models, culture transformation, and even the political climate's impact on work. ________________ Start your day with the world's top leaders by joining thousands of others at Great Leadership on Substack.

Multilevel marketing – or MLM – first became popular in the period that followed World War II. Since then, millions have tried their luck as salespeople for companies like Amway, Mary Kay, Cutco and Herbalife. MLMs offer themselves as low-cost paths to entrepreneurship, but very few of their participants are able to earn a living wage. A new book Little Bosses Everywhere by Bridget Read traces the history and culture of the MLM industry. In today's episode, Read speaks with NPR's Ayesha Rascoe about why this business model flourishes in economic uncertainty, the unregulated nature of the industry, and the blurred lines between MLMs and pyramid schemes.To listen to Book of the Day sponsor-free and support NPR's book coverage, sign up for Book of the Day+ at plus.npr.org/bookofthedayLearn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

Happy Hump Day, yo. Looks like we'll get some more nice weather today & tomorrow before some potentially dangerous storms move through the area tomorrow night. In the news this morning, a federal grand jury indicted Hannah Dugan, the Menendez brothers got resentenced, a class action lawsuit against Apple could put some money in your pocket, a man in Manitowoc has been indicted on federal charges for crimes against minors, a Madison woman allegedly shot someone over an argument on social media, Ziploc is getting sued, and the alligator from "Happy Gilmore" passed away. In sports, the Brewers lost AGAIN to the Guardians last night, we recapped the games in the NBA and the lone game in the NHL, and we took a look at tonight's NBA & NHL playoff match-ups. Plus, an owner in the NHL has been suspended by the league for some comments on social media. Elsewhere in sports, a look at some of the games on the NFL schedule that got "leaked" yesterday, and MLB is finally rescinding it's ban on Pete Rose & "Shoeless" Joe Jackson. We talked about what's on TV tonight and we discussed a new health "hack" that basically involves eating the same thing every single meal of every single day. Sounds boring. A woman from Ohio claims a video on TikTok might have saved her life. And another woman from Texas threw a party for her cat that ended up saving a local animal shelter. We discussed a Reddit poll about hobbies that are "red flags". And in today's edition of "Bad News with Happy Music", we had stories about exploding birds, a misspelling that led to an arrest, a massage parlor that got busted for prostitution, a baby that was being eaten by a large rat, and a guy whacking off in a shed in a Lowe's parking lot.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Todaywe will be looking at a new chapter, Luke chapter 18. Over 50 years ago when I was in BibleCollege in Lynchburg, I went to Winchester, Virginia, to be a part of startinga new church, Shenandoah Valley Baptist Church. Right after I graduated in1975, I became the senior pastor of the church. Shortly after that, I met adear friend who greatly influenced our lives and greatly encouraged andassisted us in my early days of ministry. His name was Dave Sisler. Wewere very sorry and sad to hear that Dave went to be with the Lord earlier thisweek. He was someone who invested in us in many different ways. One of the wayshe tried to help us, I'll never forget, was taking me and my brother-in-law,Ronnie Riggins, to Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, because we were getting ready toplant a new church up there. Ronnie was going to go up there and meet somepeople and start a church, and we were excited about that. So Dave took us upto Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, and he introduced us to a man that he knew by thename of Charlie “Tremendous” Jones. Dave was involved in Amway in a really bigway, and Charlie Tremendous Jones was one of the top motivational speakers inthe world at that time and spoke at the Amway conventions. So Dave personallyknew him. I'llnever forget our first meeting with Charlie Tremendous Jones there inHarrisburg, Pennsylvania, in his bookstore with Ronnie Riggins and Dave. That'sa longer story, but Charlie Tremendous Jones, over the years, also became apart of the church that was started there with Ronnie, and became a friend ofours too. One of the things that Charlie was famous for saying is, “Two thingswill change your life more than anything else in the next five years are thepeople you meet and the books you read.” Isaid all that to first give honor to my friend Dave Sisler. He's going to begreatly missed by many people, especially his family, but also to make a point.The Bible is a book of people. If you want to learn the Bible, learn the peopleof the Bible. God introduces us to people in the Bible, and through thesepeople, the main person we meet is God Himself. When you meet people, you meetthem in their books, you meet them in their lives, you meet them in theirstories, and your life can be forever changed because. And especially throughthe people of the Bible, you meet God. Now,in this story in front of us today in Luke chapter 18, Jesus is teaching alesson about prayer, that men ought always to pray, not to faint, not to giveup hope. This parable is teaching us that either we're going to be praying, orwe're going to be fainting, quitting, throwing up our hands, throwing in thetowel, and walking away from our Christianity. The importance and the power andplace of prayer that Jesus speaks about here is wonderful. SoJesus told this parable, saying, “There was in a certain city a judge whodid not fear God nor regard man. Now there was a widow in that city, and shecame to him, saying, ‘Get justice for me from my adversary.' And he would notfor a while; but afterward he said within himself, ‘Though I do not fear Godnor regard man, yet because this widow troubles me, I will avenge her, lest byher continual coming she weary me.'” Then the Lord said, “Hear what the unjustjudge said. And shall not God avenge His own elect who cry out day and night toHim, though He bears long with them? I tell you that He will avenge themspeedily. Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, will He find faith on theearth?” Forthe next few days, we'll be talking about this parable and the three people inthis story that we're going to meet: the widow lady, the unjust judge, and thewidow's adversary. Through them, we're going to hear and learn about how greatour God is to take care of us when we cry out to Him day and night. Todayyou might think about who you're going to meet and how you can influence theirlives or maybe how they might influence your life.

Hello! Today we have on Bridget Read, the author of a great new book called “Little Bosses Everywhere: How the Pyramid Scheme Shaped America.” (Out today!) We talk about the history of the MLM (multi-level marketing) from its alleged origins with the Yankee peddler and the frontier and the more insidious real story of eugenicists, scammers, and quackery. A lot of questions you might have about pyramid schemes and MLMs will be answered here: Why do they all do vitamins and supplements? Why did AmWay and the DeVos family have such a hold on Trump? Great book. Take a listen. This is a public episode. If you'd like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access to bonus episodes, visit goodbye.substack.com/subscribe

Are you a Chief Human Resource Officer trying to find a meaningful and affordable peer group that's NOT stuck in the past? I'm glad you found this episode because you're about to discover a CHRO community that's building the future of work as we speak. After speaking with over 100 CHROs for my book on employee experience, I kept hearing the same frustrations about existing groups with overpriced memberships, bloated conferences, constant sales pitches, outdated content, and a total lack of real value. So I decided to do something about it. In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on "Future of Work Leaders," a new community built for CHROs, by CHROs. It's an intimate group focused on one thing only: insight-rich conversations for forward-thinking CHROs like you. If you're a CHRO who's done playing by old rules and wants to connect with other future-ready leaders from companies like Johnson & Johnson, Northrop Grumman, Dow, Amway, and more, consider this your invite.   ________________ Start your day with the world's top leaders by joining thousands of others at Great Leadership on Substack.

Could You Be Manipulated Like the Manson Family? The Psychology of Cults What makes a person look at Charles Manson and think, “Yeah, this guy seems like a great life coach”? For most of us, his wild-eyed ranting and swastika-scarred forehead scream “run,” but for his devoted followers, he was the ultimate guru. So how did this failed musician and career criminal convince a group of lost souls to commit some of the most infamous murders in history? Psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott joins Tony Brueski to dissect the twisted psychology of Manson—his extreme narcissism, manipulative genius, and uncanny ability to prey on the vulnerable. Was he a true believer in his own Helter Skelter fantasy, or just an opportunistic con man who knew how to play the game? And more importantly, could anyone be pulled into a cult like his under the right circumstances? If Leslie Van Houten can get parole, can we ever really trust that someone has escaped the psychological grip of a cult? Or is there always a risk they'll be selling Amway by the end of the week? #TrueCrime #CharlesManson #CultPsychology #MindControl #HiddenKillers #ShavaunScott #CrimeAnalysis Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Show Notes Episode 495: Avon, Amway and Tupperware, OH MY! This week host Dave Bledsoe devises a plan where he recruits two people to pay for his drinks and they recruit two people to pay for their drinks and one of his, everyone profits. (It didn't work because no one likes him enough to buy even ONE drink for him.) On the show this week we took a look back at side hustles in the 70's and 80's (And maybe by some Tupperware.) Along the way we learn that Dave might not be the worst uncle out there? Then we dive into the history of direct sales in America (Buy Farmwhoofer, buy the best!) before we head back to the beginnings of an American institution and how it made generations of American women feel pretty.  Then we move right along to the origin story of all those plastic bowls with missing lids in your parent's kitchen cabinets. (Seriously, none of these lids fit any of the bowls we have!) Then we talk about the granddaddy of multi level marketing scams. (Allegedly) And how Amway created something kind of like a cult around selling generic crap and how it is screwing us even today! Our Sponsor this week is Ponz-Co, we promise it's not illegal.  We open with the burp to seal wonder of Tupperware and close with Chutes and Ladders who are falling in love with the Avon Lady!

Previously Irina was Amway Russia Chairman of Liquidation Committee, Managing Director Russia, Ukraine and Central Asia, Vice-President Sales and Operations Russia, Director of Sales and Marketing Oriflame Kazakhstan, Supervisor Reporting Philip Morris Kazakhstan.  She has an MBA from the University of Manchester Business School, and a Ph.D. from Bauman Moscow State Technical University.   Summary Leading effectively in Japan requires a nuanced understanding of its unique cultural and social dynamics. Irina Menshikova, President of Amway Japan, emphasizes the importance of patience, trust-building, and adaptability in navigating the complexities of Japanese business culture. One critical factor is understanding Japan's high-context, consensus-driven culture. Leaders must demonstrate compassion, transparency, and vulnerability while fostering collaboration. Building trust is central, achieved through consistent communication, acknowledgment of past challenges, and a sustained commitment to resolving issues. Japanese employees value leaders who listen and create safe spaces for dialogue and innovation. Menshikova's approach included open dialogue sessions and one-on-one conversations, which allowed employees to voice their concerns and suggestions. Strategic workshops were used to empower middle management and facilitate proactive contributions. Casual lunches further fostered trust and allowed for informal yet strategic discussions. Japanese teams often start with a lower baseline of optimism in assessments and engagement scores, reflecting cultural tendencies rather than dissatisfaction. Menshikova navigated this by focusing on incremental improvements and celebrating progress rather than making direct comparisons to other markets. Her leadership style integrated Amway's core values—freedom, hope, family, and reward—with the cultural specifics of Japan. By adapting global principles to local nuances, she rebuilt trust with employees and distributors. This included leveraging Japan's detail-oriented execution strengths while introducing changes in a culturally sensitive manner. For female leaders in Japan, Menshikova highlights the importance of building confidence, balancing priorities, and pursuing personal aspirations. Many women face societal expectations that limit their roles to family responsibilities. Educational programs and corporate support systems, such as flexible work policies and mentorship opportunities, can help women advance. Menshikova's advice to leaders entering Japan is to immerse themselves in the culture, learn the language, and actively listen to local teams. Trusting the Japanese approach and balancing global identity with local relevance is critical. Leaders should embrace a mindset of experimentation and adaptability while staying true to the mission of their organization. Lastly, Menshikova underscores the value of self-care, including mindfulness and resilience-building practices, as essential for sustaining long-term leadership effectiveness.

I have a question for all the business owners out there: Is your 2025 business plan ready? It's nearly Christmas. You should be done with your list and checked it twice. Wherever you are in your plan, I want to give you and anyone else who is ready to wrap up 2024 a Christmas gift: a true story about faith and the cascade of abundance that comes with it. For Chiseled listeners in my Buffini and Company coaching group, you may already know this week's guest, Greg Chaplain. Raised Catholic in Massachusetts, Greg's family always had a relationship with God. Yet, it wasn't until he was 23, when he met a businessman at an Amway convention, that he accepted the Gospel and Christ as his savior. The commitment to walk in faith would guide him well over the next 35+ years. Fast forward 16 years to 2004, Greg was working in the wine industry as a regional leader with a $100 million budget at his fingertips. He managed his company through eight acquisitions, but after a final $1.6 billion deal, he was let go. For many people, losing a high-powered job at 39 years old with a new mortgage, a homemaker wife, and two children in private school would have been a terrifying blow. Not for Greg. He was calm and cool — so much so that a friend in his Christian fellowship expressed surprise by Greg's reticent response to this career broadside. "That was the moment that I went, 'Oh yeah, I really do have faith. It's a real thing. I can actually feel it. My heart's at peace. I am not worried. I know we're going to be fine,'" he said. While confidently interviewing for one of many corporate positions over the next three months, Greg started taking real estate classes on the side. The week that he passed his real estate exam, four hot job prospects, any of which could have been perfect for him, all dried up. The message was obvious. "I looked at the sky and said, 'Really? This is what you want me to do?'" he recounted. Greg joined a real estate company where he would hone his skills and empower himself to start his own team. In 2009, he opened the Real Estate Home Team in Norfolk, Virginia. The team kept hitting higher and higher peaks — until it fell apart. Undeterred, Greg rebooted, and his new team grew and grew — to more than 365 transactions a year. That's more than one a day!  Then the bottom fell out again.  I'll let Greg tell the rest of the story, but as his longtime friend and a true believer myself, I can tell you that Greg is my Rocky — it's not how hard he falls, it's how many times he gets back up. Greg's resiliency is a great story in faith. I am happy to share it with you this Christmas season and hope your holidays, whatever you celebrate, are meaningful and joyous. I can't wait to see and hear from you in 2025. By the way, if you want to talk to Greg about buying and selling in Norfolk, becoming an agent, or how your faith walk is going, he shares how to reach him at the end of this week's podcast. Happy listening.

Rosalie Guillaume, co-founder of Le Macaron, a French pastry franchise with over 65 locations, shared her journey from a modest background in France to building a successful business in the U.S. Despite losing everything during the Great Recession, she leveraged her experience with Amway and her passion for macarons to start her own business. Rosalie emphasized the importance of hiring for traits, maintaining family harmony, and breaking down large goals into manageable steps. She highlighted the significance of customer service, simplicity in operations, and the cultural experience her stores offer. Rosalie's story underscores resilience, family values, and the power of following one's dreams.ACTION PRINCIPLES Pick one to do this week:Take smaller steps.

Sophia joined Amway as a vulnerable teenager who was just looking for adult mentorship and stability in her life. Through a series of tragic events, Sophia realized that life was far too short to be stuck in something so controlling and toxic, and despite the extreme guilt she felt to her upline, came to find out that she had one foot out the door already. But what happens when you know you have to leave, but you're not sure if you can function in life without your upline?

Mark sits with Bill McConnell to discuss, well, everything, starting with a quick exchange about the benefits of voluntary discomfort, moving into pre-Clovis arrowheads and onto evolving out of a wrestling mentality with regards to fitness into an appreciation of training for specific goals. In this case, for Bill, fitness supports his journey as a primitive survivalist, a condition that cannot be accurately pursued in a Globo-Gym. And that's the last time we talk about fitness because Bill's knowledge, experience and skills in the context of primitive survival trump just about any other topic we might discuss. By way of an introduction Bill humorously describes his drive to be "more than an Amway salesman for the bow drill." He talks about harvesting a bear with a stone point arrow and a "stick from the woods", homemade bow, homemade shaft, flint-napped arrowhead, and also about blowing 15-20 stalks in order to get close enough—15 yards—to an extremely sensitive antelope to shoot it with a primitive bow. Bill describes his path of experimental archeology (replicating old tools and using them in the real world) where he is in the real world, seeing artifacts and organic material, and being familiar enough with ancient cultures to imagine how the discovered and recovered artifact might have been used as a tool thousands of years ago. This is very different from scientific conclusions reached by researchers who have never been anything other than in 68 degrees and well-fed ...His explanation of building, customizing and using the AtlAtl is remarkable. The difference between foreshaft and main shaft is clear to me as it never was before, and how a hunter can weaponize the tool—the foreshaft—according to the game being hunted, from fish to antelope to elk and larger game, made me understand why humans are still here and many species that primitive humans hunted are not. "This is functioning art, the synthesis of art and science."At 1hr 26min they talked about the VO2 Max of various animals and the primacy of the antelope so after the conversation Mark dug up his old chart:Reinhold Messner (arguably the best high altitude climber ever)   48.8Mark Twight                                    56.6Alex Lowe (much better, faster, stronger climber than Twight)       69Miguel Indurain (five-time TDF winner)                    71Jim Ryun (1 miler world record in 1967)                   81Steve Prefontaine (1 mile in 3:54)                        84.4Bjorn Dahle (Olympic Gold Medals in several XC Ski distances)   93Certain Dogs have VO2 Max of                        90-100FunnyCide and other thoroughbreds are somewhere between    150-200Pronghorn Antelope (the highest ever recorded)            300We eventually land on the discussion of nutritional density and why people eating processed foods to fullness find themselves hungry a couple of hours later as the body inventories its intake and learns that the large meal lacked certain necessary nutrients. It's very different "when I harvest my own meat ... I don't have to eat as much of it because there is more nutrition within that food ..."Finally, it is very important to think about environment and how our presence affects it, "When we leave things for the next generation so that they find it as you did they at least have the ability to make new mistakes or try new things out ... we haven't diminished the resources ... but that's not how we have move through our environment, we have altered it, exploited it, removed some potential for understanding and growth ... and that needs to change."

Ransom: Season 1 - Position of Trust is a story of greed and betrayal and how one's outward appearance can be dangerously deceiving. Go to ransompodcast.com, or follow Ransom on your favorite podcast app. Twelve-year-old McKay Everett disappeared from his Texas home in September 1995. His father Carl returned from an Amway meeting to find the back door ajar and the telephone ringing. On the line, a woman with a raspy voice demanded $500,000. Over the next week, the FBI played a game of cat-and-mouse with the kidnappers, who used inside information to stay one step ahead of the investigation. Ultimately the FBI uncovered a series of crimes that started long before McKay was taken. Most shocking of all was the suspect. McKay had been betrayed by someone he trusted – a pillar of the community hiding a dark secret. But decades later, McKay's mother, Paulette, still isn't satisfied with the official story. She doesn't think everyone involved has been brought to justice.
