We discuss about the crucial how to cultivate a great culture, the 5 Summits Framework, characteristics of good leadership, Gen Z employees' pros and cons, and the future of the Foundation Repair industry. --- Focus On Your People First with Will Blake Our guest is Will Blake, the owner of Vesta Foundation Solutions, a foundation repair and crawl space waterproofing company in Oklahoma City and Northwest Arkansas. Will, welcome to the show. Thanks for having me, Steve. Huge fan of the Management Blueprint Podcast, been listening for a long time, so I'm humbled to actually be a guest on it. So thank you for that. That's great. So you know our flow and it's going to be familiar to you and you can anticipate my questions. So I won't be able to catch you off guard here, but that's probably not that important anyway. So let's start with your entrepreneurial journey. So what road led you to starting Vesta Foundation Solutions in the first place? So I grew up in the mountains of North Carolina, not too far from you, Steve. But my father was a general contractor. And of course, like most sons or daughters of general contractors, I was told continuously to not join the family business, go to college, right? And the Achilles heel there was, number one, I wasn't a very good student. So I didn't do very well in high school or my introductory course to college, which was a good lesson in how to spend tuition money and get little in return. But when I was 20 years old, my wife and I, well, then girlfriend, now wife, had the unexpected surprise of, hey, you're going to have a kid. And being a 20-year-old and being hit upside the head with that level of responsibility really kind of steered me back into saying, well, I've got a family I have to be responsible for and I've got other people that rely on me. And so I did what was natural to me. I jumped back into construction, doing what I knew and what I was raised to do. So I had a business. And of course, imagine, Steve, a 20-year-old running a business, right? Obviously I aced it. Obviously not. But I grew that business for about a year and a half and then eventually merged that company with a gentleman, an acquaintance of mine that didn't really have a succession plan. And we were doing about $300,000 a year. And this was my introduction into quote, unquote foundation repair. Because Steve, obviously your listeners can understand, everybody just wakes up in the morning and says, man, I can't wait to be a foundation repair contractor. Right. It's just not a sexy business. But we grew that business from about 300,000 to $9 million a year in revenue over the course of many years. And that was my first lesson in true leadership and humility, because to be frank, I was a 27 year old running a $9 million business, and I really was not a good leader. I didn't understand how to run a business, even though I thought I did. And ultimately what happened there was we dissolved that partnership. And at the time, of course, imagine being a 27-year-old, losing your first company. You think, oh, man, the world is over, right? I wish I could go back and be like, you are a dummy. You're 27. You've got plenty of life left, right? But through that, obviously, I was very humbled. And my wife and I would go around and help other contractors set up systems and processes in place. And then about a year later, a good friend of ours that owned a large foundation repair company in Virginia heard we were on the market and said, hey, listen, I want you to come up and work for me. And mind you, they were already doing about $30 million in revenue a year, fixing about 120 homes a week. And I went there as an operations manager under the VP. And he was an outstanding leader. He was a good human being, but he was also very, very smart,

#129: Steve Irby is the founder and CEO of KICKER/Stillwater Designs. In 1973, KICKER's Livin' Loud legacy began as a two-man operation, hand-building professional-speaker systems in a narrow one-car garage. With very few resources and an intense love for music Steve invented the mobile-stereo enclosure market from his Stillwater, Oklahoma community, when he developed the Original KICKER. It was the first full frequency-range speaker box designed specifically for cars and trucks. From that historic moment, delivering concert-like audio quality across a wide volume range with renowned bass and accurate sound has always been the KICKER way.The Original KICKER was made for use behind the seat in pickup trucks, and at the time thousands of the vehicles rolled along Oklahoma roads due to a recent oil boom. Because Steve had already been making a living designing and building the larger P.A. speakers, he literally overdesigned the much smaller Original KICKER. It produced a ton of bass, and when customers had it installed, heard it, and felt the enormous rumble through their truck seat, they said it “really kicked.”Today KICKER products are currently sold by approximately 1,200 authorized dealers in the United States, and export sales are managed through a network of distributors serving over 2,000 dealers in approximately 50 countries. On the show Steve shares the inside story of just how KICKER came to be, lessons growing up, never quitting, the power of the 3P's passion, perseverance, & prayer, faith, family, and much more. To find out more about Steve and KICKER be sure to check out their website at KICKER.comEnjoy the show! 

Today I have a poignant conversation with Abby Dart... a suicide widow of 19 years. Her husband Steve died by suicide in 2004 when her 5 children were only 8,10, 12, 13 & 17 (now, 26,29,31,32, & 36 to put it in perspective). Because Steve was in the public eye (in politics) and they had to figure out to grieve publicly while trying to find private time as a family. We pack a LOT into our time together and this was a very enlightening chat."I wonder if I'm just still trying to find myself. Because I feel I was robbed of my future, I was, with my husband... And I never really figured it out...So no, I never remarried. And I think I'm still searching." - Abby Dart"(Suicide is) it's such an abrupt and complicated way for our life to take a hard right turn."

Welcome, Craig Peterson here. I was on with Jeff Chidester on NH Today. We really got into a topic that has been a soapbox topic for me, and that is H1B Visas, and the outright fraud that has been going on with this program, especially in the Tech sector and I have to assume other sectors as well although I have not reviewed other sectors.  H1B Visas are being used to take jobs from American Technology workers and replace them with wholly unqualified workers who are marketed by basically "third world slave traders." These large "third-world consulting firms" represent their candidates with outrageous resumes and charge an arm and a leg" for almost incompetent workers to tech companies and pay their worker's one-fifth to one-sixth of what an American worker would be paid and then pile them into an apartment 12-15 at a time.  These people are afraid to rock the boat, or they will lose their job and be sent back. It is a modern-day tech equivalent to the slave trade.  We must stop it.  But the US Legislature led by a "good-hearted but quite misinformed" Senator named Mike Lee pushed for H1B Visa renewal this week. Then we talked about the demise of Adobe Flash -- to which I say Good Riddance.  It was horribly insecure software that had outlived its usefulness and purpose. Here we go with Jeff.  These and more tech tips, news, and updates visit. - CraigPeterson.com ---  Automated Machine Generated Transcript: Craig Peterson: [00:00:00] This was a bit of a tough one this morning. Craig Peterson here. I was on with Mr. Jeff Chidester, of course, on December 7th, Pearl Harbor day. How could I not? My father-in-law was there in the war.  I talk a little bit about it.  I had to stop talking because I couldn't just talk. we talked a little bit this morning about this whole H1B thing. Man. It really is upsetting to me. What has happened to us? What has happened in the country, frankly? Flash. Adobe Flash, may it rest in peace. Jeff's company relies on Flash for some of the training they've put together. But that is all going down the tubes. Anyways, here we go. Jeff Chidester: [00:00:45] Seven 38 in the morning. Of course, Jeff Chidester with you, December 7th, as always. We're pleased to be joined by this next gentleman. He joins us at this time, every Monday, you can also catch him on the weekends. We call him Craig Peterson. He calls himself Craig Peterson, as well. Craig. How are you doing this morning? Craig Peterson: [00:00:59] It's weird how that all fits together. Jeff Chidester: [00:01:02] You see how to seamlessly. I just said it without even hiccuping, right? The silliness of Monday.  Craig, we're all kind of euphoric that the Patriots not only won, but they won so big that, we're just, we're letting that euphoria carry us through the day as it just so happens. Hey, Facebook hires foreign workers. This is an interesting thing. There Is this bill going through the Senate and the house right now from Mike Lee, and it's disappointing about H1B. Please talk a little bit about that. Facebook actually got caught on this, and there are some issues with that. Craig Peterson: [00:01:35] Oh, there are all kinds of issues. I've been talking about this whole H1B thing for years and years, Here's what's been going on in many of the larger tech firms rather than pay Americans to do jobs. They have been using what has lately been a loophole in the law that allows them to bring in foreign workers. So they've been bringing in workers from all kinds of countries that they can pay a lot less to. Now they're supposed to pay equal wages to Americans. They are supposed to be advertising in places where Americans will find out about the jobs and apply for those jobs. It's called the H1B visa program. However, what's just happened now is the Department of Justice sued Facebook on Thursday. They're saying that Facebook has discriminated against US workers. They've been giving preferences to Facebook workers on H1B visas. That means a temporary worker. It's a worker that they couldn't find in the United States. No one in the whole United States has the skills that they needed. So they had to go to a foreign worker. It brought them into the country. In many of these places, these workers live in one apartment with as many as a dozen from some of the reports that I've read. They're already working there at Facebook. They're already underpaid. They've taken jobs that should have been given to an American by law. Apparently, they're advertising their outreach to try and get Americans to apply for the jobs. Is to put them in a newspaper that nobody reads anymore. These are jobs with an average salary of more than $156,000. Out of some 1100 jobs that Facebook posted between July 2018 and April 2019, 81% did not receive a single applicant. Another 18% received, just one applicant. You add those numbers up, and that's 99% of the jobs, not a single American applied for a $156,000 job. Jeff Chidester: [00:03:55] Craig too, if not for you, if you didn't tell us those facts, Facebook and other companies that participate in these kinds of practices, just come back and say, we just can't find qualified American workers, which is just hogwash. Craig Peterson: [00:04:08] It's totally hogwash because the DOJ noted that earlier in 2018, Facebook advertised 22 openings for this is an art director job. 22 openings, and they did it legitimately, right? They put it up online. They put it where people could find it. Facebook had more than 2,600 Americans apply for those jobs. Jeff Chidester: [00:04:32] Unbelievable Craig Peterson: [00:04:32] There's some really nasty stuff going on. I've come up against this before. You might've as well. Jeff, because you're in the tech business. Where I've had problems is with one big company. It is a massive consulting firm. They have all kinds of H1B visa holders. It's like the third most of any company in the country. We're talking about thousands of these H1B holders within this one single company. We were up against them on a bid, and we lost the bid because they were able to undercut us. When we did more research and talked to some of these completely incompetent people, that they had brought in from overseas who had generated diplomas, showing that they had a Ph.D. yet I know high school kids that knew more about computers than these people did. They were being paid about a sixth, one-sixth of what a normal American would be paid. The abuse is just going on and on. Then last week, the US Senate just voted on an extension here, this whole H1B program. Instead of having  Republican senators and Democrat senators saying, we need these jobs for Americans, look at the unemployment rate. They just sat on their hands and let it pass. Jeff Chidester: [00:05:56] Oh yeah, there was no open debate on it. And of course, that's Mike Lee, the one I was talking about, and I was surprised that Mike Lee allowed this. And once again, the bi-partisan killing of American jobs is just insane. We will certainly have to see how that progresses through, but buyer beware too. If you're hiring these tech companies are hiring these companies that help in that area ask. How many employees are actually H1B employees? How many are Americans? It's just a thing we should be thinking about. Hey, Flash is going away. I'm dealing with this. I've been dealing with this issue for a while because I do a lot of online training.  A lot of our old courses were built into Flash. Flash, it's dead. Dead at the end of the month. Isn't it. Craig Peterson: [00:06:34] Thank goodness. I was going to have Justin cue up some trumpets blaring. Flash has been one of the worst things that ever happened for security. Now it was great. Yeah. Because when it first came out or an Adobe product now has been for years, it gave us the ability to have moving graphics, to program stuff like your training courses. You just mentioned where people could click on things, move through them. It was great, but it was designed by I swear it was 10,000 monkeys on typewriters. Okay.  They managed to develop this little programming language. It has been terrible. It's Java, and it is now completely removed. It has never been on a single iOS device in history in the 10 years that my phones have been out. Because Steve jobs, it's a complicated story, but he saw the security problems. He said, you can't do this. You've gotta be kidding. Plus, he had a little fight going on with Adobe at the time. So it's gone. It's over with, at the end of the year. Good riddance. Adobe has been pushing updates for your browser for Flash that actually removes it from your systems. Jeff Chidester: [00:07:51] Yeah. It's interesting as I go through this process too, Craig, there was no easy fix to fix those courses. So some are actually going to be retired. We'll have to rethink how we present them, but you're right. It was something that we were all warned about long ago. Last thing I want to talk about,  extortion. Where gains traction and Kmart gets hits, I'm always surprised, Craig. Once again, you can catch Craig, Saturdays, and Sundays on the station, as well as other stations. I'm always surprised these big companies just get hammered. We always think it's the little companies, and they should be careful, but these big companies keep getting nailed by this stuff. Craig Peterson: [00:08:20] Yeah, absolutely. And I want to, and also, before I get into that real quick, if I could just some honor here, my father-in-law was on a submarine in Pearl Harbor when it was attacked on to state many years ago.  He was just an amazing man, a big-time boy scouter. He did everything with these boys and these kids. He never talked about his experience and could never have breakfast, with eggs and orange juice, because all he ever did, was taste diesel. There are so many of our veterans, two of my kids, did military service as well. I know you did. Thanks for your service. We're talking today freely because of what these people sacrificed in memory of my father-in-law. I had to bring it up, Gerry. Jeff Chidester: [00:09:12] Oh, that's very nice. We're going to be talking about, Pearl Harbor during the eight o'clock hour, too. and look it back in remembrance as well. We actually have to break. Next time we'll catch up on some of those other topics that we want to catch up on as well Craig Peterson: [00:09:22] Very Good and take care Thanks, Jeff. Jeff Chidester: [00:09:24] You as well. Thanks a lot, Craig Peterson. Once again, you can check him out, Saturdays and Sundays on these stations and the other stations. Also, all of his podcasts are up on his website to Craig peterson.com.

Steve Pavlina Podcast:  Family upbringing focused on mental performance His parents and family were very focused on all things mental and intellectual. Steve is not interested in having a "sexy" body, but being able to do new fun things. All through high school, he was vrooming not interested in anything athletic or related to using his body. In college he veered...deciding to study martial arts.  He focused on creating new psychical abilities like braking boards and learning to spar, and do amazing kicks. In the 90's Steve ran the LA marathon. He exercised everyday for 25 minutes for 1 year...he didn't miss one day. His diet also evolved from Standard American Diet to vegetarian to vegan. Steve finds it more effective to set "FUN" fitness goals instead of boring fitness goals. The benefits of improving your body also improve your mental performance and your emotional health. Great book called "Spark"  Cool Sleep app for the iPhone and Android called Sleep Cycle Alarm Clock Steve Pavlina Podcast:  Vrooming with a Fear of public speaking Starting in the 1st grade he was terrified to speak in front of people. He had a good friend who was not afraid, but very calm speaking in front of people. He faced his fears.  He took opportunities to speak while working in the computer game community. He found it more fun to speak about topics he wanted to talk about, and it was less frightening. There was a real reward, when people thanked him for sharing his knowledge. Labeled an introvert as a small child Before high school he was labeled a shy kid, and an introvert. He went to a high school that was focused on academics, so being smart made you a cool kid. Because Steve was smart and a high achiever, he started to become more of an extrovert in High School Steve eventually joined Toastmaster's and was a member for about 5 and 1/2 years. He eventually joined that National Speakers Associations for a while. Vrooming with a fear of touch Grew up very much touch adverse. His family didn't hug much out of affection. Friendly and affectionate touch was something that was alien to him as a child. In High School he remembers seeing girls greet boys with a hug, and that seemed very strange to him. People would never do that with Steve. Steve figures now that people can get a sense of whether someone is open to hugs and affection. In college, while studying with a woman friend, his friend began to stroke his forearm. Steve freaked out and made and excuse to leave and it was awkward. Steve avoided her for the rest of the semester. His veer was very gradual, he realized he was bad and accepting touch. He started pushing himself to touch more. Steve was like the therapist in the movie 50/50. Once he started he wanted to veer to master touch and enjoy touching. Steve tells the story of Daan Buckinx who learned to hug more during Steve's workshops. He was getting strangers to hug him in less one second. In 2010 he got cancer, but still came to Steve's Workshop. Because of Daan's example, Steve started to hugging hello to everyone when they show up to his workshop.

  Working remotely in the USA from anywhere in the world is the new normal. Michelle Green is a professional real estate investor, ex-property Lawyer and Realtor/Real Estate who works virtually in Texas, USA from her home in New Zealand. In 2016, with her father Steve, she founded the Koru Group which specializes in seller financing homes to retail buyers and investors who are not currently able to qualify for conventional financing. Steve and Michelle share how they first got started dabbling in real estate, how they moved their real estate operation to Texas, USA, private lending, and how to find private lenders from 8,000 miles away. This dynamic father/daughter duo of Steve and Michelle Green is inspiring to say the least! — Listen to the podcast here: Using Private Money From 8,000 Miles Away with Steve and Michelle Green This Dynamic Father/Daughter Duo Is Suffocating ALL Excuse It's my mission to create private lenders and to create a community where people just like you and I can safely and confidently invest and build wealth with old world values and pragmatism and without banks or Wall Street. 2019 has started off to be a very international year at the show where we had http://privatelenderpodcast.com/?s=Victor+Menasce (Victor Menasce) from Canada and now, I have very distinct honor to interview a father and daughter powerhouse all the way from New Zealand. https://nz.linkedin.com/in/stevegreen-koruhomes (Steve) and https://nz.linkedin.com/in/michelle-green-40365ba6 (Michelle Green) live almost 8,000 miles away and yet they have found a way to invest in single-family homes real estate here in the United States. I find their story fascinating and very interesting. I believe that you the Lender Nation will as well. When I think of all the excuses I gave in the past as to why I was or wasn’t doing something, mostly why I wasn’t doing something. It’s too hard. I don’t have the time. I don’t have the money or whatever the case may be, I get a sense of shame now when I think back on it. I don’t think it’s uncommon among investors and it’s not necessarily a bad thing unless you let it ruin you or run you. It’s a good thing if we can find motivation in those emotions. I certainly find it there. I heard this thing about you should never compare yourself to another as we go around and we journey around the sun through life. After hearing how our guest is investing in real estate in Texas all the way from New Zealand, I feel downright lazy. Because Steve and Michelle Green and negating all the excuses, mine, yours, everybody's for not putting in the hustle and getting things done. Veering out of way and making it happen. This dynamic father and daughter investing duo tell us how they do it. They shared it with us and I’m forever grateful. — I’m honored to be interviewing Steve and Michelle Green all the way in New Zealand. Steve and Michelle, welcome to the Private Lender Podcast. Thank you very much. It's a pleasure to be here. When I started this podcast, it was back in April or May. Somebody reached out on LinkedIn. It was this fellow named Steve Green and I didn’t realize the significance at the time, but in August of 2018, we met at the https://questira.lpages.co/quest-expo/ (Quest IRA Expo) and Steve said, “This is my daughter Michelle and we were investing in the Southern United States.” I said, “You don’t sound like you’re from Houston or Dallas. How is it that you guys have come and invested in the United States? We caught up before you left and thank you for lunch. I was jumping at the bit to have you guys come on because your story is absolutely fascinating and I can’t wait for you to tell it to the audience. We were investing here in New Zealand for various reasons. Our portfolio's top properties weren’t performing as well as it should have been. The government here is getting...

This week's episode of The Adelaide Show, 'Til death us do laugh, we'll celebrate the fact that Steve and Nigel both turn a year older this week by reliving a classic interview on the topic of facing your own mortality.

Gentle readers and listeners! The March podcast is late, but it's here! Featuring a member of the class of 1999 (we're really branching out these days!), Osman Ahmed! We had a great conversation (for two and a half hours!) (Don't worry, only the last hour and a half is recorded.) (Because Steve was late. Really late.).I know, I know, you're wondering where the February and March leafy vegetables are. Well, feel free to harass Matthew about that. We'll just have to feature three leafy vegetables in April. And Katrina signed up for a CSA this summer, so fresh leafy vegetables will be all the rage.Also, Katrina has successfully eaten at least one vegetable a day for the last two weeks. That's a big deal for her, OKAY? Osman generously brought sparkling cider in honor of Katrina's recent engagement, so we had to take a selfie with it.From left to right, that's Steve, Osman, Katrina and Google Monkey. (Colloquially, he goes by Nick.) (Google Monkey made a brief appearance on this month's podcast.) The toast! With mugs! Osman also brought cupcakes in honor of Katrina and Google Monkey's engagement, so a cupcake selfie must be had! (They were delicious - tiny little bundt cakes.) Anyway, Katrina has a fancy Samsung Galaxy S7 phone that will take a selfie if you just hold your palm up. It recognizes the palm, then sets a timer and three seconds later - selfie! Osman was so excited about this new technology, that he didn't move his hand in time.Left to right: Steve, Osman, Katrina, Google Monkey Osman sporting his IMSA soccer jacket, circa 1999. Stylish IMSA fashion, that.

The Big Interview is pulling on the armband for our latest clip show, as we look back at a special group of players who cropped up a lot in Season Two: the manager's representative on the pitch, the leaders of men, the captains.There was really no escaping the subject when we had Mark Noble on the podcast. The West Ham skipper first took us into the Hammers dressing room to reveal the nefarious method he uses to up the intensity at training, as well as the more subtle ways he gets more out of his team-mates during matches. Mark then pays tribute to a rival Premier League captain: Wayne Rooney.Pablo Zabaleta explains what he said in the Argentina dressing room to help inspire them to victory over arch-rivals Brazil in the Under-20 World Cup, while Benni McCarthy offers his own, unique description of “The Beast” - former Porto captain Jorge Costa.Chris Sutton also talks about what made Tim Sherwood such an effective leader when his Blackburn Rovers side won the Premier League title, and Walter Smith explains the leadership qualities that Terry Butcher showed at Rangers.We'll end with Neil Lennon and the hilarious story about brawling with Steve Lomas backstage at an Oasis concert in Manchester. Spoilers, but it ends with Neil being thrown out by security and Steve getting to stay and hang out with Noel Gallagher. Why? Because Steve was the City captain, that's why.Enjoy!
