Welcome to an interview with the author of Crossing the Desert: The Power of Embracing Life's Difficult Journeys, Payam Zamani. In this episode, Payam shares the most important lessons he learned from building a record-breaking billion-dollar IPO called AutoWeb, and how it fell apart. He took those early lessons and created his current company, One Planet Group, with the “people-first” culture he wanted all along for AutoWeb. As a result, One Planet Group's success has allowed Payam to reacquire AutoWeb and bring it back to profitability. In Payam's book, Crossing the Desert, readers take an intimate look at how the paths we choose, the values we embrace, and the systems we decide to participate in (or not) can make or break us, not only financially, but spiritually. Payam's story is a timely reminder that enduring and embracing life's most difficult journeys can lead us to a brighter future—not only for ourselves, but for the people around us, and even the world. Payam Zamani is an entrepreneur, investor, and the founder of One Planet Group, a closely held private equity firm that owns a suite of online technology and media businesses. Born in Iran, Zamani was forced to flee at the age of 16 due to his religious beliefs as a Baha'i. He was offered asylum in the United States in 1988, settling in the San Francisco Bay Area. Upon graduation from the University of California, Davis, he and his brother founded AutoWeb, one of the first online car marketplaces, which they took public in 1999. Since then, he has built and currently owns multiple technology and media businesses, has invested in more than 50 companies, and is striving to redefine capitalism in an attempt to elevate business to serve humanity. He has been named the “Best CEO for Diversity,” is the recipient of Tahirih Justice Center's Hope Award, and received an Award of Distinction from UC Davis in 2018. Zamani and his wife, Gouya, have two daughters, Sophia and Ella.

It's tough being CEO but somebody has to do the job! Perspective is everything and sometimes that's all you need when you're required to be the Boss. When you give employees a job to create holiday cheer it becomes the perfect occasion to show appreciation to the CEO. Being productive does not mean you have to be quiet, simply add some excitement and join the fun.Visit our Instagram at:IG: @financial_legacy_leaEmail Lea at:president@aleashelpinghand.comTo learn more, visit:http://www.aleashelpinghand.vision/Listen to more episodes on Mission Matters:https://missionmatters.com/author/lea-smith
On this episode, we had an opportunity to have a conversation with Dr. Kellee Mitchell Farris. Take a listen as she shares her journey of coming back home to serve and the pure love and care that she has for her community. Dr. Kellee Mitchell Farris has been on the staff at Lee County Cooperative Clinic since 2010. However, her time at LCCC dates back to her childhood. Her father, Dr. L.C. Mitchell, moved his family to Marianna in 1976 to be the Dentist at the Clinic. So, Dr. Farris has strong ties not only to the community, but to the Clinic. She has over 25 years of experience in health care and holds a Ph.D. in Public Health. She also has Master Certificates from Johns Hopkins University in Healthcare Data Analytics and in Population Health. Dr. Farris began her career at LCCC as the Depression Care Manager and later became the Quality Improvement Coordinator helping LCCC reach Level 3 PCMH Recognition in 2017. While working in the QI Coordinator role, LCCC was able to be awarded several grants and awards for achievement. Since becoming CEO in 2018, Dr. Farris has led the LCCC in receiving the 2019 Governor's Quality Award and celebrating 50 years of service while having one of the most profitable years to that date. Most notably, Dr. Farris has helped lead the way in the Clinic's recent groundbreaking of a new 20,000 square foot facility. This facility is more than double the size of the current facility and will be the focal point for what Dr. Farris calls the “Lee County Cooperative Clinic Campus”. Dr. Farris has developed a plan for the 16-acre campus to include a women's health clinic, pediatric clinic, a program offering clinical rotations for medical students, and housing a wellness/fitness center. Dr. Farris wants to ensure that the community has direct access to quality primary and specialty care without having to travel outside of Eastern Arkansas. Dr. Farris was named the 2019 Community Leader of the Year by the School of Religious Studies, the 2020 Jack Geiger Vision Award recipient by the Community Health Centers of Arkansas, and in 2022 was named one of 5 finalists for the Best CEO by the Arkansas Times. In 2020, Dr. Farris was appointed to the NACHC Quality Improvement Advisory Board. Being a native of Marianna aids in Dr. Farris being able to work with the culturally diverse population. She is very active in the community. She recently ran for elected office in her district, with plans to run again and continue to advocate for hercommunity. She is a volunteer for the Arkansas Single Parent Scholarship Fund, Rotary, Arkansas Colorectal Cancer Consortium, a member of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc., is a youth mentor, and volunteers for countless other community projects. Dr. Farris has twochildren, Lawton (12) and Klein (28). Lee County Cooperative Clinic (LCCC) was established by a group of community leaders in 1969 in response to the desperate need for basic health care services for a community struggling with poverty, malnutrition, and insurmountable health care barriers. As the first Federally Qualified Health Center in Arkansas and one of the first in the United Stated, LCCC has provided comprehensive primary and preventative medical and dental care services to the most vulnerable populations. LCCC has grown from one small clinic to a comprehensive primary care delivery system comprised of four clinic sites and a mobile unit that provide medical, dental, and pharmacy services in a three-county area in eastern Arkansas - Lee, Phillips, and St. Francis Counties. LCCC prides itself in offering complementary services (case management, remote patient monitoring, health education, transportation, and Chronic Care Management) to its patients to ensure the “whole” patient is treated. LCCC is continuously looking for programs and strategic partnerships that will help achieve this vision.

Die Themen im heutigen Versicherungsfunk Update sind: Generali: Philippe Donnet als bester CEO im Versicherungssektor ausgezeichnet Philippe Donnet, Group CEO der Generali, wurde in der Ausgabe 2023 des jährlichen Rankings der All-Europe Executive Teams von Institutional Investor, dem Fachmagazin und unabhängigen Forschungsunternehmen im Bereich der internationalen Finanzwirtschaft, zum zweiten Mal in Folge als "Best CEO" im Versicherungssektor ausgezeichnet. Das Institutional Investor Ranking spiegelt die Bewertungen von mehr als 1.600 Fachleuten, institutionellen Investoren und Finanzanalysten wider. Die CEOs wurden anhand der Kriterien Glaubwürdigkeit, Führung und Kommunikation bewertet. 3.400 Besucher auf Hauptstadtmesse Rund 3.400 Fachbesucher waren Gäste der Hauptstadtmesse der Fonds Finanz. Ein Fokus lag auf dem technischen Zusammenschluss von Fonds Finanz und DEMV. Dessen Maklerverwaltungsprogramm 'Professional works' wird das neue Herzstück der Fonds Finanz, so Norbert Porazik, Geschäftsführer der Fonds Finanz. Assistance-Leistungen als Abschluss-Treiber 61 Prozent der privaten Haushalte sehen Assistance-Angebote als maßgeblich für den Abschluss eines Versicherungsvertrages an. Im 16-jährigen Erfassungszeitraum des Assistance Barometers der Europ Assistance Deutschland stellt dieses Votum den bisherigen Höchstwert dar. Naturkatastrophenrisiken erfordern Anpassungen im Underwriting Steigende Schäden durch Naturkatastrophen belasten den Sach-Rück‑/Versicherungsmarkt stark, so Swiss Re. Der Rückversicherer geht davon aus, dass es weitere Jahre mit versicherten Schäden von über 100 Mrd. US-Dollar geben wird. Swiss Re sprach sich für mehr Datentransparenz und Investitionen in prognostische Fähigkeiten aus, um Gefahren wie Waldbrände, Überschwemmungen und Hagel besser modellieren zu können. BaFin: Wiens vor Grund-Nachfolge? Wie das Fachportal Versicherungsmonitor exklusiv berichtet, plant die Bundesregierung, die 53-jährige Mathematikerin Julia Wiens zur Chefin der Versicherungsaufsicht bei der BaFin zu machen. Derzeit ist Wiens noch Vorständin bei Baloise und würde bei einem Wechsel die Nachfolge von Frank Grund antreten, der die BaFin zum Monatsende verlässt. Umweltprämie für Elektro-Lkw steigt um das 15-fache Besitzer von Elektrofahrzeugen können ihre eingesparten Emissionen an Mineralölkonzerne verkaufen und erhalten dafür die sogenannte THG-Prämie. Dieser Handel ist jedoch nur über THG-Vermittler – wie beispielsweise die R+V - möglich. Ab sofort sind die Prämien für Elektro-Lkw gestaffelt. Für Lkw ab 3,5 Tonnen steigt die Förderquote deutlich an. In der Vergangenheit konnte für Elektrofahrzeuge jährlich eine Prämie von rund 250 Euro beantragt werden. Heute sind es für E-Lkw jährlich bis zu 4.100 Euro Klimabonus.

Episode 135 – True Modern Leadership with JeVon McCormick We are delighted to speak with an amazing individual today! JeVon McCormick is a phenomenal person and an incredible leader! He is the CEO of Scribe Media and the author of the bestselling book Modern Leader. JeVon is top-ranked with Glass Doors and received Ernst and Young's Entrepreneur of the Year. He was named Best CEO in Austin and Best Culture Company in America! He joins us today to talk about his personal and professional life, share his experience, and discuss his take on diversity, equity, and inclusion. We hope you enjoy listening to today's inspiring conversation with JeVon McCormick! About JeVon JeVon McCormick was born the son of a Black pimp father and a white single mother on welfare. Poverty, abuse, eviction, and discrimination were a daily part of his life. Today, he's the CEO of Scribe Media, a multi-million dollar publishing company that was recently ranked the #1 Top Company Culture in America by Entrepreneur Magazine. JeVon's experiences shaped a mindset for modern leadership that now guides his service as the CEO of a massively successful company that's redefining the world of publishing. JeVon's journey JeVon's mother grew up in an orphanage. She had JeVon when she was still technically a child herself. Growing up in the 1970s was hard for JeVon because he was half black and half white and never felt he belonged. He was always trying to fit in. He got molested as a child and was in and out of juvenile prison. He never graduated from high school and had to attend summer school to get his GED. A game-changer JeVon's dad drove him through a very affluent Houston neighborhood when he was about ten. He had never seen homes anything like the ones he saw there before. It was a game-changer for him because it showed him what was possible. As a result, wealth became his goal. His first job JeVon's first job after getting his GED was cleaning restaurant toilets. After about a month, he decided to make them the cleanest toilets in Texas. Then he resolved to be the best at whatever he did from that moment forward! What's in a name? After struggling for some time to get a better job, JeVon thought people were reluctant to hire him because he had a black name. So he began to go by JT McCormick. A week later, callbacks, invitations, and appointments began flooding in. From then on, he built his career on the name JT McCormick. Reclaiming his name After the murder of George Floyd, JeVon realized that changing his name made him part of the problem. So he reclaimed his name for all the kids with ethnic names living in similar communities to the one where he grew up. Jevon's credo Jevon lives by putting people first. He believes in people, processes, and profits and feels that people should use their profits to do great things for the communities they live and work in. Awards JeVon is grateful for and proud of his awards. However, he finds it interesting and quite funny that we celebrate CEOs when CEOs are only as good as those they serve and support. CEO A CEO is a foundational piece of any company. Their role is to serve and support everyone else. They should never make decisions to benefit themselves. Covid Modern leadership got tested during Covid because there was no playbook for the virus. Covid revealed the difference between true leaders and playbook leaders. Even before working remotely became a thing, JeVon told his people to take whatever they needed from the office to build a comfortable workspace at home. He also announced that no salaries would get reduced, and no one would get laid off. DEI JeVon does not see DEI as an initiative because diversity has no start or finish. He feels it should be referred to as diversity, equity, and inclusion rather than DEI because actually saying the words opens up a real conversation. He also points out that most Fortune 500 chief diversity officers are black women, many of whom are now coming out and saying they are getting no support in moving their DEI initiatives forward. Modern leadership JeVon has been a successful leader because he puts people first and does things differently. He does not want to recruit and retain people. He prefers to attract great people and provide them with a phenomenal culture, meaningful work, and great salaries. Language Much of the language used in business today comes from an antiquated playbook. People don't realize that some of it even comes from the plantation business model. For example, referring to people as “human capital”, or “greatest assets”, implies human trafficking or slavery. Respect As Americans, we need to respect others, listen to them, and seek to understand their lived lives. We need to ask questions and learn from others. History Rather than being destroyed, offensive statues should be placed in museums because they are part of history and serve to educate future generations. Do the right thing Seek to do what is right for all people. Do the right thing just because it's the right thing to do. Don't do it for a buy-in or something that might be in it for you.

Many small business owners spend too much time and money outsourcing core tasks like sales and marketing when they should have a handle on them themselves. That's according to management coach and consultant Leela Cosgrove, who is the Founder and CEO of Strategic Anarchy. Leela says that, if you want to be a good CEO, then sales and marketing are YOUR job, and that to be a good manager, you must get out of your “specialist headspace.” Business Essentials Daily is produced by: SoundCartelsoundcartel.com.au+61 3 9882 8333See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What's the key to a successful business? Whole Foods Market CEO and best-selling author John Mackey believes it lies in Conscious Capitalism. This is the idea that higher purpose, stakeholder orientation, conscious leadership, and conscious culture can transform companies and lead to long-term success.

Welcome to Reimagining Company Culture, a series discussing emerging trends and priorities shaping the future of workplace culture and employee wellbeing. We highlight thought leaders who are constantly evolving their strategy and can provide insight to folks about how to address new business challenges.

An advocate for diversity and inclusion in the entertainment industry, Emily regularly speaks at conferences and events about leveraging entertainment to build equity and sustainability for everyone.About AllVoicesIn today's workforce, people often don't feel empowered to speak up and voice their opinions about workplace issues, including harassment, bias, and other culture issues. This prevents company leadership from making necessary changes, and prevents people from feeling fulfilled, recognized, and included at work. At AllVoices, we want to change that by providing a completely safe, anonymous way for people to report issues directly to company leaders. This allows company leadership real transparency into what's happening in their companies—and the motivation to address issues quickly. Our goal is to help create safer, more inclusive companies.To learn more about AllVoices visit us at www.allvoices.co!

This week, we were curious to learn more about the latest fintech innovation and what it's like to work for the world's leading employer, Google. To find out about it first hand, Cédric met with Phil Lojacono, Founder & CEO of Advanon. With a background in Finance and Banking, Phil Lojacono built an interesting career, switching from a corporate job to a startup. Lojacono studied in Luzern but gained international academic experience by spending the two exchange semesters in London, England and Edmonton, Canada. Soon after, he got the opportunity to work for Google as an intern on the business development side, which Lojacono described it as “an amazing experience.” That's where he got inspired to start his own company and where he met his co-founders. The team behind Advanon identified a major issue that many SMEs are dealing with. Once they deliver their products or services, they often have to wait for three to four months in order to get paid. To bridge the long payment terms of SMEs, Advanon developed a platform that enables SMEs to sell invoices to financial investors. That way, SMEs get the chance to improve their cash balance, while investors can experience a sort of short-term investment.Website https://www.advanon.ch/Apart from trying to answer everlasting questions like how to get started and how to build a successful team, we also tackled some very interesting financial topics in this video.
