What We Learned from Scott Roth Scott believes that employers should listen to their employee base to determine overlapping things that they are recommending or asking for. A lot of corporations have developed their teams through the Bains and McKinsey consulting model. Managers are recognized for moving the workforce talent within the company, giving them new opportunities, thereby creating a stronger organization. Scott's key focus at Beamery is to drive customer centricity throughout the organization to ensure that they have a seat at the table. Notable Quotes [04:21] “My best advice is listen to your employee base. Listen to what they are telling you. Listen to what they are asking for. Now you can't do every single one thing they are asking for, but there are going to be themes that develop and there are going to be the things that employees are recommending.” [12:20] “You say what you can do and you do what you can say and you have to deliver on your promises. And I think that's so important because at the end of the day, all you have in this world is your word and your reputation.” [15:50] “I think it's really important to remember: People buy from people.” [16:08] “It's super important to create a relationship with your customers and to make sure you know something about them. So, one of the things I strive to do when I am first meeting someone is learn about them as a human.” Our Guest Scott Roth, is Chief Customer Officer at Beamery, the leader in talent lifecycle management.

Słuchając rozmowy z Marcinem Zabielskim będziecie pod wrażeniem jego ścieżki kariery. Frito Lay, Arthur Andersen Business Consulting, Orange, Grupa Pracuj, Hedgehog Fund - praca w tych firmach, podejmowane wyzwania, zdobyte doświadczenia i wyciągnięte wnioski umożliwiły naszemu gościowi rozwój i osiągnięcie życiowej satysfakcji. Marcin obecnie jest Partnerem funduszu VC - Market One Capital o kapitalizacji 45 mln EUR, który inwestuje w startupy technologiczne o modelu marketplace. Bio gościaPartner funduszu VC - Market One Capital o kapitalizacji 45 mln EUR, który inwestuje w startupy technologiczne o modelu marketplace. Jako inwestor i anioł biznesu uczestniczył w kilkudziesięciu procesach inwestycyjnych. Rozwijał również spółki internetowe, między innymi przyczyniając się do sukcesu Grupy Pracuj. W trakcie swojej ponad dwudziestoletniej kariery brał udział w kilkudziesięciu procesach restrukturyzacyjnych pełniąc funkcje konsultanta czy też interim managera. Specjalizuje się w: modelach biznesowych, usprawnianiu procesów, zagadnieniach wycen i miękkich elementach zarządzania zespołami. Prywatnie: mąż i ojciec 3 wspaniałych córek, wielki fan rocka progresywnego, wokalista - amator i oddany kibic Chelsea Londyn.W tym odcinku audycji Zaprojektuj Swoje Życie dowiecie się:- Jak powstał fundusz Market One Capital - Kiedy i dlaczego warto podejmować wyzwania- Jak, jako startup, pozyskać finansowanie od Market One Capital - O najważniejszej lekcji Marcina wyniesionej z pracy w konsultingu - Skąd wzięła się nazwa pierwszego funduszu - Hedgehog Notatki z odcinkaProjektowanie życia Marcin porównuje do jazdy na snowboardzie. Na samym początku proces projektowania był bardzo świadomy - etap nauki. Kolejnym etapem był “zjazd z góry”, czyli koncentrowanie się na działaniu. W latach 90-tych nasz gość podjął studia ekonomiczne na wydziale zarządzania. Był to też czas gdy dołączył do organizacji AIESEC. Otworzyło to przed nim wiele drzwi. Praca w PepsiCo umożliwia Marcinowi zapoznanie się i zrozumienie wielu aspektów działania firmy. Chęć sprawdzenia się w konsultingu zaprowadziła go do Arthur Andersen Business Consulting gdzie zatrudniono go na stanowisko Senior Business Consultant. Swoje wybory dotyczące kariery Marcin określa jako świadome. Istotne w planowaniu ścieżki zawodowej były dla naszego rozmówcy pytania precyzujące. Między innymi co mu się podoba w jego życiu zawodowym a co nie ? Wiedziony fascynacją internetem zaangażował się w projekt platformy Vatera. Finanse pozyskiwane były od zagranicznego funduszu VC. Kilka dni przed podpisaniem umowy nastąpił krach na giełdzie w Nowym Jorku. Wszystkie fundusze się wycofały. Projekt nie był sukcesem ale Marcin dużo się z tej porażki nauczył. Po podjęciu się restrukturyzacji sześciu spółek w Elektrimie i pracy w Orange zaczął pracę w Grupie Pracuj. Z Przemkiem Gackiem znali się jeszcze z czasów AIESECa. Marcin po raz kolejny podjął wyzwanie gdyż widział wartość w tym przedsięwzięciu. Spędził tam ponad 6 lat. Gdy struktura w firmie okrzepła nasz gość ponownie zaczął się zastanawiać co chciałby robić dalej. Stworzył mikro fundusz Hedgehog. Główną nauką z tego przedsięwzięcia była świadomość, że każdy fundusz musi mieć odpowiednią ekonomikę. Market One Capital to najnowsze “dziecko” Marcina. Ten projekt kształtował się już w czasach funkcjonowania Hedgehoga. Obecnie fundusz zainwestował już w 13 spółek. Plany na przyszłość to powiększenie tej ilości do 30.Zapytany o jedną najważniejszą lekcję, którą wyciągnął z dokonywanych na przestrzeni lat wyborów, Marcin podkreśla wagę nie trzymania się kurczowo planów. Plany są niczym, planowanie jest wszystkim. Nasz gość chciałby aby widzowie i słuchacze zapamiętali, że warto zadawać sobie pytania. Czy jestem tu gdzie chcę być? Czy mam satysfakcję z tego co robię?Pamiętajcie aby subskrybować nasz kanał na YouTube, iTunes, Spotify lub wszędzie tam gdzie słuchacie podcastów. Co czwartek wywiady z przedsiębiorcami.

Andrew feels that bios written in the third person by the author are strange. I (Andrew) co-founded and successfully exited TeamDynamix after surviving many of the entrepreneurial mistakes you are about to make. My experiences may help you avoid some of them. We drove TeamDynamix to overnight success (15+ years to grow and exit). The path to success was easy often allowing 4 hours of sleep per night. Through it all I have remained a youthful 63 years old as calculated by health.com’s real age calculator (I’m 42). Even with constant computer use I have better than 20/20 vision when wearing bifocals. In all seriousness I believe that success comes through very hard work paired with closely aligning the needs of customers, team members, the market, and the company. I also place extreme value in hiring the most intelligent and well-adjusted team members, not necessarily the most experienced. It’s amazing what happens when you are surrounded by brilliant minds. When you look around your business and you’re the dumbest one in the room you’re doing something right. When I’m not swinging a pick in the TeamDynamix mine as Chief Product Strategist I enjoy spending time with my spouse, irony, our dog, making fun of friends, being made fun of by friends, laughing, cheese, exercise, sleep, mountain biking, learning, boating, traveling, charity, foreign languages, life experiences and I LOVE snow skiing. I started my career at Arthur Andersen Business Consulting after graduating from Ohio University with a degree in Management Information Systems. This is the audio recording from the live event on 8/6/2018. startupgrind.com/columbus awh.net rev1ventures.com

Focus Is Your Friend: How to double down on marketing that matters
Joe Stradinger began his career as a CPA with Arthur Andersen. His first assignment was in Budapest, Hungary, where he performed business valuations to support the privatization effort of former Iron Curtain countries. Joe eventually transferred to Arthur Andersen Business Consulting where he supported major telecommunications clients such as GTE and MCIWorldCom.

The result for our customers is a greater share of the conversation that grows their market share. “We don't live in a search age anymore, we live in a find age. We have to go find people that aren’t looking for us.” - Joe Stradinger What you’ll learn about in this episode: Content as a service: why you can’t have a conversation without content How EdgeTheory uses development engineers and conversation engineers to develop content EdgeTheory’s conversational maps that they use with clients to direct the kinds of conversations they need to have on social Why CMOs need to think of themselves as a publisher that builds a media company Why every company in every industry needs to own their conversation What people often misunderstand about social media The divide between the people who know what to say (those with experience) and those who know how to really use social media (younger employees) Why content creation is the new SEO Ways to contact Joe: Website: edgetheory.com Twitter: @joeoptions Ted Talk: www.youtube.com/watch?v=i5xHI4C2HwA

Welcome to the Software Process and Measurement Cast 86! The interview in the SPaMCAST 86 is with Bob Thames. Bob is a co-author of Chasing Change: Building Organizational Capacity in a Turbulent Environment. Bob and I talked about change. No one is immune from change therefore understanding how to deal with change makes good sense. Bob Thames has 34 years of experience in the technology and consulting industries. He is currently a Senior Program Manager at SAS Institute, a leading global supplier of Business Analytics software solutions. He has been with SAS for 7 years, with previous positions at KPMG LLP, IBM Consulting Group, Arthur Andersen Business Consulting, and Digital Equipment Corporation. He is also the founder and CEO of Pathways to Transformation LLC, an executive and life coaching company that helps individuals enhance their life purpose and step into greater balance and fulfillment in their lives. Bob has been involved for the past 17 years in CAM-I, an international research consortium for cost, process, and performance management. After observing the unacceptably high rate of failure in many organizational performance improvement initiatives over the years, he led an interest group within CAM-I to research best practices on facilitating organizational change and developing resilient change capabilities. The results of this research effort culminated in the book Chasing Change, published by John Wiley and Sons. Passionate about helping individuals navigate the turbulence of personal change, Bob became a Certified Professional Coactive Coach through Coaches Training Institute and a certified coach with Blueprint for Life. Periodic blogs on personal change and contact information can be found on his website: www.pathwaystotransformation.com Remember to check out GoTo Assist Express!
