Impact of Elections and Holidays on the Automotive Industry: A Comprehensive Analysis Key Takeaways Election outcomes significantly influence the automotive industry through tax incentives, interest rates, and regulations. Automotive professionals can utilize holiday seasons creatively to boost sales and customer engagement. Effective use of marketing strategies around elections and holidays can increase sales and client retention. The intersection of political and seasonal changes presents a unique opportunity for automotive professionals to adapt and thrive. As Sean V. Bradley and Tianna Mick dissected in their lively conversation, the election and holiday seasons bring distinct challenges and opportunities in the car sales industry. They shared insights on how both factors influence consumer behavior and dealership operations, reminding us that success often hinges on adaptability and effective communication. Navigating Election Impact on Automotive Sales Elections play a pivotal role in shaping economic policies that directly affect the automotive industry. Sean V. Bradley underscores the importance of understanding these impacts, noting, "It's our job at the dealership to create urgency and excitement… to get people to want to buy a car today." The election outcomes can sway consumer confidence and spending through changes in economic policies, interest rates, and market conditions. Tax Policies and Economic Incentives Different administrations often prioritize various sectors differently, leading to shifts in tax policies and economic incentives. Sean points out, "Changes to tax policies can influence dealerships' profitability and how much consumers can spend on vehicles." Such changes can either encourage growth through tax breaks or increase operational costs due to higher taxes, impacting both dealerships and buyers. Impact of Interest Rates and Financial Markets Interest rate shifts are another critical area influenced by elections. According to Sean, "Different political administrations influence fiscal policy, which impacts interest rates." Rising rates can increase monthly payments, making vehicle loans more expensive, whereas lower rates can boost affordability. This dynamic requires dealers to stay informed and communicate effectively with potential buyers to overcome their hesitations. Leveraging the Holiday Season for Car Sales Holidays are a powerful tool for dealerships to engage customers and motivate purchases. The festive spirit offers a backdrop to create urgency and excitement, driving consumers to make purchases. Tianna Mick highlights the potential, saying, "The most important part is making sure you're aware… creating your own marketing strategy in automotive." Utilizing Marketing Strategies Creating engaging marketing strategies for the holiday season involves more than simple sales pitches. Tianna emphasizes, "Being involved in the community and aware of local events can help create a more personalized and successful marketing strategy." Sending personalized greetings and leveraging multimedia platforms can enhance customer relationships and keep your dealership top of mind. Offering Value During the Holidays During the holidays, consumers are more open to spending, making it an ideal time for dealerships to offer unique value propositions. Whether through special financing deals, holiday-themed promotions, or personalized customer interactions, aligning sales strategies with the holiday spirit can significantly boost sales. Tianna advises, "Using a mix of traditional and digital platforms can amplify your message effectively." Building a Resilient Business Mindset Navigating changes in political and economic climates requires a resilient and informed approach. Automotive professionals must be agile, continuously adapting strategies to match the external environment. Sean V. Bradley encapsulates this mindset, stating, "It's not about who the president is; it's about your skills and ability to sell a car today." Importance of Staying Informed Being aware of political changes and potential economic implications is crucial for automotive professionals. Sean advises staying neutral in political discussions while being ready to address customer concerns with facts, stating, "You're not here to give a therapy session… it's your job to sell a car." Understanding the implications of policies can help guide conversations and build trust with customers. Emphasizing the Customer's Needs Ultimately, the focus should remain on solving the customer's needs, irrespective of external changes. Tianna highlights, "The biggest investment here at the dealership we're here to make is solving your problem." By emphasizing customer-centric solutions, dealers can foster loyalty and satisfaction, even amidst uncertainties. The realms of political shifts and festive seasons offer automotive professionals unique challenges and opportunities. As Sean V. Bradley and Tianna Mick articulate, by remaining informed, adapting strategies, and focusing on customer needs, professionals can not only navigate but thrive in these dynamic periods. The ability to transform obstacles into opportunities is what sets successful dealerships apart in the ever-evolving automotive landscape.

[:41] The next RIMS-CRMP Exam Prep will be held with PARIMA virtually on November 14th and 15th. The next RIMS-CRMP-FED Exam Course will be hosted along with George Mason University from December 3rd through the 5th. [:57] Links to these courses can be found on the Certifications page of RIMS.org and through this episode's show notes. [1:04] RIMS Virtual Workshops! Elise Farnham of Illumine Consulting recently joined us here on RIMScast. On December 4th and 5th, she will host Applying and Integrating ERM. On December 17th and 18th, she will host Captives as an Alternate Risk Financing Technique. [1:26] Those are just two of the workshops RIMS offers; we have lots more! Other dates for the Fall and Winter are available on the Virtual Workshops calendar, RIMS.org/virtualworkshops. We've got more important plugs coming during the break. Now, let's get on with the show! [1:44] Interview! The RIMS Ontario Chapter (ORIMS) presented the Donald M. Stuart Award to our guest, Valerie Fox, at the RIMS Canada Conference 2024 in Vancouver. [1:57] Valerie is a CRM holder, a RIMS-CRMP holder, and the former Director of Risk Management and Health and Safety for NPL Canada. She has since retired. [2:14] The Donald M. Stuart Award is widely recognized as Canada's highest honor within the risk management field and since 1979, has celebrated Canadians who have made outstanding contributions to the profession. [2:28] Throughout her 42-year career, Valerie has held prominent leadership roles in risk management for a range of multinational corporations, including Walmart and Wendy's Restaurants of Canada. [2:44] We'll talk a bit about her career, how she sees the risk profession evolving, and why she's so inspired by the next generation of risk management professionals. Donald M. Stuart Award Winner, Valerie Fox, welcome to RIMScast! [3:33] Valerie notes that winning the Donald M. Stuart Award was a very special moment for her. She has a tremendous respect for the history of the Donald M. Stuart Award and the professional values it represents. [4:04] When Valerie was VP of the Ontario RIMS Chapter Board in 2017, she was responsible for the oversight of this award. She enjoyed it so much that she continued to be the presenter of the award for the last seven years. This year, she stepped down from the ORIMS Board. [4:25] When Valerie stepped down from the ORIMS board, her colleagues nominated her for the award. She couldn't be more humbled or appreciative of their recognition and support. To be recognized alongside the people she presented the award to over the years is very special. [5:02] ORIMS accepts nominations from all over the country. It's an award for all of Canada and is overseen by the Ontario Chapter. The nomination process has two stages. [5:21] If a nomination clears the first stage, a total nomination package is submitted with further documentation. The package goes to a panel of evaluators across the country, including risk managers, people on boards, and insurance companies and brokers. [5:44] They evaluate the nominations. The person with the top collective score wins the award. They're looking at the nominees' history with their companies, volunteerism, and the tenets the award represents. It's the Canadian version of RIMS Risk Manager of the Year. [6:36] Valerie's first role as a risk manager was Manager of Contracts and Insurance. She bought insurance, handled claims, and implemented some risk control of targeted risks. [6:56] The job description of a risk manager has evolved immensely and varies greatly from entity to entity, depending on the company's maturity, operations, experiences, losses, and more. [7:16] You could still be hired today as Manager of Contracts and Insurance but you could also be aspiring to be a Chief Risk Officer of a major, multi-national corporation with the responsibility to help them be more resilient and grow. [7:41] Valerie saw the evolution in risk management start very slowly. It has continually ramped up and now is speeding forward. [7:50] Over her career, Valerie had to be willing to delve into new challenges and be prepared to learn and develop new skills and new mitigation strategies and develop broad-based business knowledge. Without that knowledge, it's difficult to assess potential impacts. [8:33] Different industries have different areas of risk focus. Valerie started in the airline industry. A major focus was having a major accident response plan ready. There were challenges of jurisdictional insurance requirements and risk exposures around the world. [9:11] Valerie spent five years in the public sector as a risk manager for a municipality. The focus of public entities is protecting people in public spaces, maintaining critical services, and managing reputation. It includes presenting the right answers. [9:51] Valerie worked in the retail industry in domestic and international markets. On her first day at Walmart Canada, she realized how unprepared she was to deal with health and safety and worker's compensation management responsibilities. Those had been under HR in Canada. [10:13] Working for American companies, she had to get up to speed quickly on those areas of risk. Valerie trained herself on the job. She met with anyone she knew in the industry who was involved in health and safety. She met with people from the boards. [10:42] Valerie spent a lot of time in the stores with the associates to see what their concerns were. She spent time with operations leaders, seeing the processes first-hand to understand the risks and put together programs that fit the culture and the environment of the companies. [11:26] Valerie says retailers today need to do a deep-dive business impact analysis, map out dependencies and processes, and have alternative options to avoid business interruption. As a risk manager, you have to understand that to help businesses come up with the right solutions. [11:55] Valerie reviews a case of having to train people quickly after a buyout. [12:52] Valerie talks about working with a new inexperienced team that she had to take under her wing and teach risk management quickly. In large corporations, you also build company-wide teams and external teams that help you. [13:17] Valerie taught CRM courses at the University of Toronto. Later, she had the pleasure of hiring one of her most enthusiastic students for a risk management position. He now works for another company she is close to and he is doing super well. [13:48] Plug Time! RIMS Webinars! On November 14th, Marsh will present “Risk Perception and Management: Insights for a Changing Landscape”. [13:58] On November 21st, HUB International returns with the fourth installment of their Ready for Tomorrow series, “From AI to the SEC: The Future of D&O Litigation and Regulatory Exposures”. [14:13] On November 25th, Resolver returns to discuss “The Future of Risk & Compliance: 5 Key Insights for the Modern Leader”. [14:22] On December 5th, we have “Predictive Strategies to Detect Electrical and Machinery Failures”, presented by Global Risk Consultants, a TÜV SÜD company.

I also have a link in the show notes to the nominations page for the Donald M. Stuart Award. Check it out! [16:13] Back to My Interview with 2024 Donald M. Stuart Award Winner, Valerie Fox! [16:33] Valerie was ORIMS President in 2018 and 2019. She also had a couple of terms as Vice President, two terms as Secretary, and more. She is an active ORIMS member and a Director at Large. She intends to continue volunteering, especially with student outreach. [17:28] Justin remembers the wonderful people he worked with when he co-hosted the ORIMS luncheon last year. [17:57] Valerie describes how being involved in RIMS and ORIMS, whether volunteering or participating in regular events, gives you so much to learn both in formal training and networking that greatly helps your career. [18:29] Volunteering on the board gives you leadership development opportunities. Those who step up to do this work are go-getters and prominent professionals who know their jobs. Their ages are from quite young to quite senior. It's a diverse group of leaders. [18:58] You learn a lot about non-profit work and compliance. On the board, Valerie learned a tremendous amount that she has applied elsewhere in her career. You can improve your comfort with public speaking. [20:00] Justin suggests trying stand-up comedy or an improv class three times to develop a foundation of confidence to speak publicly. [20:24] Valerie was on the RIMS Risk Leaders Series. See the link in the show notes. She gave an expansive view of her career and the challenges she overcame using risk management. [19:16] The career accomplishment Valerie is most proud of is with Walmart International. Valerie had to get the risk management process promptly into place and hire a team when Walmart came into Canada in 1994. It was very successful. [21:47] Therefore, Valerie was asked to take a three-year expatriate assignment to work with Walmart's international division as an internal consultant in seven countries where Walmart had recently opened operations. [22:02] She visited each country to work with their leadership teams on insurance brokerage, services, claims, health and safety, food safety, construction, benefits, and whatever they needed. It was tough. It was two-and-a-half years of being far out of her comfort zone. [22:34] At the end of that assignment, she felt like she had made a difference and she had grown as a risk manager and as a person. It was an invaluable experience she is very proud of. [23:01] It was a new way of doing things for Walmart, too. Valerie was a test case. There were some glitches through which Walmart learned and improved its support system for expatriates working around the world. It was an evolution both for Walmart and Valerie. [23:32] Valerie has assisted with RIMS-CRMP workshops in Canada. [24:00] Valerie believes the risk leaders of tomorrow in Canada should take the CRM program and work toward their CRMP certification. There is also a variety of technical training that can help them throughout their careers. [24:18] RIMS has helped Valerie to stay current through seminars and articles. It's extremely important that people have a solid business base. Get out from behind the desk and understand the business and how business is done. [24:47] Going forward, the emerging trend for employers is going to be to look at some of these qualifications as a minimum requirement. Gaining that base knowledge is important. [25:00] Valerie says risk leaders need to focus on the soft skills of team management, social intelligence, communication, and identifying and supporting mental health. Risk management is a people business. Know how to communicate with people and read their reactions. [25:34] Working from home during the pandemic has depleted some opportunities to gain that experience. Future risk leaders need to ensure they have those skills today. [25:59] Valerie is encouraged by the college and university students she has been meeting over the last couple of years of outreach. The students are bright, curious, motivated, and hungry to get out there and make their mark. [26:24] They're comfortable with technology and passionate about the world events that are shaping risks these days. They are the future. She hopes that she can continue to share some tidbits or tribal knowledge that they might find helpful. [26:44] Valerie has concerns about the talent gap as lots of people retire. We need to fill that gap fast. The students she has been seeing indicate to her that the future is bright. [27:01] Justin had the pleasure of attending the McGannon Foundation's closing ceremony for their students. The students are extremely impressive. He feels that we will be seeing them up on stage receiving awards in the not-too-distant future. [27:20] Val, it has been such a pleasure to see you again. I want to congratulate you again on winning the Donald M. Stuart Award in 2024. I look forward to seeing you at more RIMS events. Thank you so much for all you do for ORIMS and RIMS!

When I think about a business roadmap, I see it as the strategy that turns your vision into reality. Looking back, I wish I had one from the start. Entrepreneurs like myself often get lost in the hustle—focused on putting out fires and chasing growth without a real plan. And that's where things fall apart. After my conversation with Bruce Eckfeldt, I wish I had a well-crafted roadmap that could have saved me from unnecessary stress and reactive decisions. In this episode, he explains the difference between controlled growth and chaos and how it can help your business grow. About Bruce EckfeldtBruce Eckfeldt is an experienced entrepreneur and business coach who specializes in helping companies grow and prepare for successful exits. Over the years, he has led multiple businesses through big growth phases, building strong leadership teams and creating clear roadmaps for sustainable success. As a 5X Inc. 500 CEO Award Winner, Bruce knows firsthand what it takes to scale a business effectively.He's certified in Scaling Up, 3HAG/Metronomics, and Predictive Index, using these proven methods to guide businesses through challenges and unlock their full potential. Bruce is also passionate about personal growth and leadership development, which he incorporates into his coaching.Whether you're looking to grow, build a high-performing team, or plan for an eventual exit, Bruce offers the experience and strategies needed to make it happen. His focus is on helping entrepreneurs create businesses that are strong, scalable, and ready for whatever comes next.Key Insights:Think like a CEO, not a founder. As your business grows, you need to stop doing everything yourself. Trust your team to handle the day-to-day so you can focus on leading and growing the company.Focus on sustainable growth, not hustle. Entrepreneurs often prioritize busy work over structure, but Bruce believes that without the right processes and leadership team, growth can lead to chaos. Set up scalable systems early on for sustainable, controlled growth.Reduce business risks. Whenever possible, try to reduce reliance on key clients or single revenue streams. Not only does it make your business vulnerable if something goes wrong, but it also limits your growth potential. Start identifying areas where you can expand, whether by attracting new types of customers, offering additional services, or developing new products. Create clear roles and responsibilities. Make sure everyone on your team knows exactly what they are responsible for. This helps avoid confusion and keeps the business running smoothly as you grow.Review your strategy. After developing a strategy, expect it to evolve. The initial roadmap will be wrong in many ways, but the important part is identifying gaps and continuously improving the strategy based on new insights.Bruce's best advice for entrepreneurs:"Most businesses think growth is about hustle, but if you don't have the right structure or leadership team in place, you're going to run into chaos. You need to build a foundation that can handle scaling without falling apart."Connect with Bruce Eckfeldt:LinkedInWebsiteXYouTubeInc.com columnPodcastFollow Beyond 8 Figures:LinkedInXWebsite
