Podcast appearances and mentions of Bruce Williams

This week on The Touring Car Masters Podcast with the Auto Action RevLimiter, Andrew Clarke, Bruce Williams and Touring Car Masters category manager Dean Bryant unpack a fascinating weekend at Symmons Plains.From the successful debut of the new category engine to the crowd-pleasing arrival of the Mazda RX-7, there was plenty to discuss following a busy weekend in Tasmania. The boys break down the biggest stories from the paddock, the standout performers, the return of some familiar names, and why Touring Car Masters continues to grow at a rapid rate.They also look ahead to Townsville, where a 24-car grid is shaping up, including the arrival of New Zealand star Angus Fogg and a host of returning favourites.Plus, we catch up with race winner Steve Johnson. Stevie J explains why he still approaches Touring Car Masters racing with the same mindset he used in Supercars, the preparation that goes into winning races, and why leaving nothing to chance remains the key to success.All that, plenty of laughs, a few Bruce Williams drive-bys, and a look at what's coming next for one of Australia's most entertaining racing categories.That's this week on The Rev Limiter.All this and more on the latest episode of the ⁠AutoActionRevLimiter⁠.

Andrew Clarke is still in the United States, but he still took enough time to tell Bruce Williams what it's like to stand at Talladega while 26 cars pile up in front of you. He also visited Texas Motor Speedway, watched Chase Elliott take the win, and sat down with Kyle Larson for a major feature coming in the next issue of Auto Action — including Larson's thoughts on Shane Van Gisbergen's chances of winning on an oval this year.Back home, Bruce has a cracking 10-page interview with Neil Crompton in the new Auto Action magazine. They cover his unceremonious exit from the Supercars broadcast team, his busy life since, his role at BJR, and why the idea of him becoming the next Supercars CEO is more complicated than the rumours suggest.There's also talk of Van Gisbergen's triple-race weekend at Watkins Glen – all three races this weekend across the Cup, O'Rielly's and Craftsman Truck series – the state of play under Supercars interim CEO Barclay Nettefold, Roland Dane's public commentary on the sport, and whether Wollongong will ever actually host a Supercars round.Plus, Andrew's book The Immortals of NASCAR is selling out of Barnes & Noble stores across the US, so there's a bit of that, too.The new issue of Auto Action is out now.All this and more on the latest episode of the AutoActionRevLimiter.

Chris and David welcome guest John Athayde, who runs the branding and UX consultancy, Meticulous. They dive into John's unusual path through the Rails world as a designer, front-end developer, consultant, author, and UX thinker. The conversation moves from early Rails history and The Rails View into a broader discussion about why designers need to understand implementation, how AI is changing product and UI work, where component-based design is headed, and why browser support is still one of the messiest parts of modern web development.

Andrew Clarke and Bruce Williams call in live from Christchurch after a big opening day at the ITM Super 440, and there is plenty to get through.Kyle Allen delivered a maiden Supercars win for Grove Racing with a gutsy two-tyre strategy that held off a hard-charging Brodie Kostecki, while Matt Payne had earlier taken pole for the team. Andrew and Bruce discuss what the result says about Grove's willingness to back themselves — and whether Kyle Allen is ready to step up if Payne departs.The parity debate dominates the first half. The Camaro teams ran with revised rear wing and front splitter settings following the Supercars Commission adjustment, but was it a technical correction or a sporting one? Andrew and Bruce go back and forth on whether the changes were merited, and whether Barry Ryan's admission that GM has no A-grade drivers undermines the case for the adjustment entirely.Also on the agenda: the safety car that wasn't — a chaotic first-lap incident that multiple drivers said could have been catastrophic; Red Bull's difficult day with Will Brown losing time to an undertray issue and Brock Feeney fading through the field; Toyota's Ryan Wood on the podium again; and why nobody should be surprised the GR Supras keep winning.Plus, first impressions of Ruapuna — a flat track the drivers are enjoying, a massive crowd for a Friday, and a city that has well and truly embraced Supercars.All this and more on the latest episode of the ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠AutoActionRevLimiter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠. Check out ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://autoaction.com.au/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠for all thelatest updates and dropping news.

We were gearing up to break down the Japanese GP… then Supercars went and blew up the agenda.James Warburton is gone—less than 12 months into his return—and chairman Barclay Nettlefold is stepping into the hot seat. Sudden? Yes. Surprising? Not entirely.On this week's Auto Action Rev Limiter, Andrew Clarke and Bruce Williams unpack:

Formula 1 has a shiny new rulebook and already looks like it's misplaced half the instructions.In episode two of The Rev Limiter, Andrew Clarke and Bruce Williams get stuck into a season that's barely started and already throwing up red flags, most notably McLaren failing the basic brief of actually making the grid.Kimi Antonelli wins and the hype machine fires up, but let's not pretend history hasn't seen this movie before, young driver, fast car, big noise. The real question is what happens next.Then there's China. Packed grandstands, booming interest, and not a hint of Drive to Survive in sight. So if Netflix isn't the hero of this story, what is? Money, manufacturers, or just the sheer scale of the place?Closer to home, GM is circling in Supercars, picking off talent and quietly trying to rebuild what it lost. Not everyone's thrilled, and not everyone's playing the same game.It's blunt, it wanders, it occasionally goes off the rails, but underneath it all, there's a proper look at where the sport actually sits right now, not where it says it does.All this and more on the latest episode of the ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠AutoActionRevLimiter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠. Check out ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://autoaction.com.au/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠for all thelatest updates and dropping news.

Yes, yes… calm down.We know.The messages, the emails, the random people at the Grand Prix grabbing us by the sleeve asking “Where the hell is the podcast?” — apparently the RevLimiter disappearing act had people more concerned than a Ferrari strategy call.So after a bit of a layoff (caused mostly by too much racing, too much work, and not enough coffee), Bruce Williams and Andrew Clarke are back behind the microphones.And naturally it goes off the rails almost immediately.In this episode we dive head-first into the new Formula 1 rules, which currently seem to involve equal parts battery management, computer science and sheer confusion. Even the drivers don't look entirely sure what the cars are doing — which makes for entertaining viewing.We also tackle:The Australian Grand Prix circus — bigger, shinier and possibly running out of toilets.Oscar Piastri's unfortunate meeting with the wall and whether the technology deserves a share of the blame.The MotoGP raid on Melbourne, with Adelaide happily running off with the spoils.Why Mercedes might already have the jump on everyone in the new F1 era.Supercars chaos, Toyota suddenly being competitive and Chevrolet having a bit of homework to do.And the usual assortment of tangents, arguments and Bruce wandering off into completely unrelated territory.There's also a quick nod to the Phillip Island Classic, some historic racing nostalgia, and a few industry whispers thrown in for good measure.In other words: the same slightly unhinged motorsport chat you were apparently missing.So if you were one of the people asking where the podcast went — congratulations.You've got your wish.Just don't complain if Bruce starts ranting again.

Cam Waters dropped a marker in the ground with one of the most dominant weekends we've seen in a long time in Supercars. If he weren't blocked in the pits on Saturday, it would have been how far rather than giving us one of the best closing laps in the sport's history. But what about the rest? Andrew Clarke, Bruce Williams and Melinda Price take a deep dive into the weekend. And we've got the latest news too... not that there was much outside of the #Supercars. ---If you are on the ⁠⁠⁠AC Delco⁠ ⁠⁠site, use the code AAREVL25 for a 25% discount on all your parts.

Max Verstappen likely sealed his fourth F1 World Championship with a storming drive from 17th on the grid to win a wet Brazilian Grand Prix. Lando Norris still has a mathematical chance, but that is it. Alpine also set up a $50m payday with dual podiums, elevating it a few spots on the constructors' battle. MotoGP has also experienced some weather events, with the deadly floods around Valencia forcing the final rounds of the series to find a new home. Jorge Martin is looking at his first MotoGP title, aided by a fall from Francesco Bagnaia, but the fight is alive after one of the greatest races in history. Then there's NASCAR, with the Championship 4 decided for both the Cup Series and Xfinity Cup, with punches thrown at the end of the Xfinity race at Martinsville, and the promise of more fireworks this weekend in Phoenix as scores look to get settled in the final race of 2024.

It is a news story more than 20 years in the making, but the largest vehicle manufacturer in the world, as opposed to the manufacturer of the largest vehicles in the world, has signed up to go Supercars racing. Toyota joins Australia's largest motor racing series in 2026 with Walkinshaw Andretti United and one other yet-to-be-identified team for at least five seasons. But what does it really mean? Auto Action's Bruce Williams was at the launch, and he dissected the meaning of life with Andrew Clarke and Toyota's unofficial spokesperson, Paul Gover. We talk about Oscar Piastri's win in the Azerbaijan Grand Prix and how he has helped take McLaren back to the top of the F1 pile. But what happened to Carlos Sainz and Sergio Perez, and where was Lando Norris and Max Verstappen? Then it is Supercars and the Sandown 478, previously known as the Sandown 500 and Red Bull Ampol Racing domination and a podium to everyone's favourite team, PremiAir Racing. But what was happening to those Ford engines on the eve of Bathurst? How would they do 1000 km when they can't even get through a drive day? Plus a little bit of NASCAR and IndyCar… All this and more on the Auto Action RevLimiter. And check out https://autoaction.com.au/ for all the latest updates and dropping news.

How to Support the Rob Skinner Podcast.  If you would like to help support my mission to multiply disciples, leaders and churches, click here:  https://www.buymeacoffee.com/robskinner      Transcript of "How to Become a Great Communicator" When I got that call and saw who it was, I couldn't pick up the phone.  I had a heavy feeling of fear deep in my gut.  I let it go to voicemail.  When I listened to it later, I didn't call back for a week.  The voicemail message said, “Hey Rob, this is Bruce Williams.  I was calling to see if you and Pam would be interested in planting a new church in Tucson, Arizona.  Call me back when you get a chance.”  The mixture of fear and confusion I felt paralyzed me into inaction.  I was living in Oregon at the time working a full-time job as a Realtor and leading a church full-time as a self-supporting minister.  Pam and I had been talking about returning to the full-time ministry.  The pressure to run a growing church and support a family through the great recession and housing collapse was intense.  I didn't know how long I could keep it up.  However, the thought of change, upheaval and leaving my extended family while my kids were in high school worried me.  So, I just didn't call back.  I didn't know what to do. Fear keeps us shuttered in our homes, afraid of what might happen.  It shows up when we avoid people, avoid contacts, ghost people who text us or call us and ignore emails sent to us.  These behaviors are symptoms of fear.  For some reason, we are afraid of what might happen, what might be said, what might be found out, what might be asked of us and we run from the conversation.  As Solomon wrote in Proverbs 28:1, “The wicked flee though no one pursues, but the righteous are as bold as a lion.”  We can downplay it or rationalize it for as long as we like, but this type of avoidance behavior is grounded in fear.  When we avoid people, we are fleeing from a conversation or a confrontation that often needs to happen.  God often works by sending the right person into our life at just the right time.  That phone call, text, email, WhatsApp or DM (Direct Message) might be a message from God.  If you have ever invited someone to church, followed up with them and then got ghosted you know the frustration and sadness you feel.  Why?  Because your invitation to them was really a ticket to heaven, a pass to eternal life.  Why do people run away from God?  It's been happening since the Garden of Eden.  John explains this behavior in John 3:19-20,   “This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but people loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil.  Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that their deeds will be exposed.”  People ghost Christians because they are afraid of the light.  They are fleeing God because their deeds are evil.  They don't want anyone to know what they've been doing with their lives. Even after we become Christians God sends people into our lives.  That's why it's so important to maintain and preserve connections with people and make ourselves available both to those we know and those we don't know yet.  You never know when God is tapping your shoulder for something new and amazing. God called Jonah to lead one of the most miraculous revivals in the Bible, the repentance of Nineveh.  Jonah refused to answer God's call, he ghosted him in Jonah 1:1-3.  “The word of the Lord came to Jonah son of Amittai: 2 ‘Go to the great city of Nineveh and preach against it, because its wickedness has come up before me.'  3But Jonah ran away from the Lord and headed for Tarshish. He went down to Joppa, where he found a ship bound for that port. After paying the fare, he went aboard and sailed for Tarshish to flee from the Lord.”  God was patient with Jonah and pursued him until he got his man.  Jonah almost missed the greatest opportunity of his life because of fear, racism and prejudice.  God called to him a second time and this time, Jonah was there to take the call.  He responded and went to Nineveh.  The whole city repented from the King down to the lowliest citizen.    When I called Bruce Williams back, I made profuse apologies for my slow reply.  He explained the offer of planting a new church.  A new planting, financial support for several years, a full-time salary, an amazing city and university and anything else I needed to be successful.  I told him no.  I wasn't ready to make that move even though I felt like I was caught in a vise-grip of time and financial pressure.  He was patient.  He had another friend, John Lusk, call me a few weeks later and invited me to come and pray over the city of Tucson, Arizona all expenses paid.  I gradually started to realize that maybe this was God directing me and offering me a new start.  I went and prayed over the city.  I spoke with Bruce and told him then that I still wasn't ready to make a decision.  I came back home, prayed and fasted.  One day after work, I walked into our master bedroom to take off my suit, shirt and tie and put on my casual clothes.  Pam was still in bed.  I asked, “Are you sick?”  She said, “No.”  I asked, “Why were you in bed all day?”  She said, “Because I think we need to move to Tucson.”  That's the moment when I realized God was definitely calling us and I needed to be bold as a lion and stop fleeing from God's call.   I called Bruce and told him that we would go to Tucson.  It turned out to be a great decision.  The church planting blossomed from zero to one hundred members in two years and my kids were able to all graduate from the University of Arizona.  Another church was able to get off the ground and many souls have been saved.  It all started with a phone call and a voicemail. If you want to be a multiplying Christian, take a look at how you handle communications.  Are you easy to reach?  Do you call or text people back quickly.  I think 24 hours is the maximum for voicemail, texts or emails.  I don't think it has to be the same day.  Sometimes you need to sleep on it and consider how you're going to respond.  There are times that I can sense my anger is bubbling up.  That's the worst time to call or text back.  Better to give it a night to lose the heat and regain emotional control than to say, text or type something you'll regret and have to apologize for later. Practicals: ·       Stop making excuses for ignoring, delaying and avoiding people when they are trying to communicate with you.  ·       Ask yourself, what is causing me to practice this behavior?  Is it fear, shame, lack of faith?  Whatever it is, deal with the reason for the avoidance behavior. ·       Decide to be a quick responder.  Set a 24-hour limit on your responses if not sooner.  You can say your not ready to decide, but at least make the connection.  You never know when God is opening a door for you.

How to Support the Rob Skinner Podcast.  If you would like to help support my mission to multiply disciples, leaders and churches, click here:  https://www.buymeacoffee.com/robskinner Today, you'll learn one of the secrets that enables billionaires and fruitful Christians become even more productive by seeking strong relationships.  Transcript: Nearly every day I go through my “Power Pack.”  This is a collection of scriptures and quotes that fire me up, encourage me and challenge me to grow, get closer to God and have greater faith.  I pulled one out the other day and it was a card on which I had written decisions made after a spiritual conference I went to.  I don't know which one it was, but it had to be at least ten years ago.  It read: 1.        Conference Decisions a.       Build a sharing habit b.      Build relationships with strong leaders c.       Build the church on small groups d.      Raise the standards and confront difficult situations directly e.       Concentrate on training leadership                                                               i.      Build a training program:  Interviews                                                             ii.      Write book on small church planting I can see how I followed through with a number of those decisions.  I wrote a book on church planting, I developed a sharing habit, I have worked on training leadership with my young guns group and have forced myself to confront difficult situations directly. However, of all of these, building relationships with strong leaders has probably done more to help me grow than all of the other ones.  Solomon wrote in Proverbs 13:20, “He who walks with the wise grows wise, but a companion of fools suffers harm.” Aesop said, “A man is known by the company he keeps.”  Jim Rohn said, “You're the average of the five people you spend the most time with.”   All of these maxims point to the same conclusion, you maximize or diminish your life based on the quality of your friends.  I can quickly point to those men who have made a powerful difference in my life through their friendship, example and advice, Dick Gee, Doug Baity, Ed Townsend, Preston Shepherd, Frank Kim and Bruce Williams.  Their influence on my life transformed me from a worldly kid into a spiritual man.  All of them shared their life and friendship with me.  They mentored me and made time to walk with me, teach me and correct me at times.  They were patient when I struggled and weren't afraid to call me higher when I was coasting.  My nature is to remain isolated and to try to tackle things on my own.  I've had to deliberately choose to allow people into my life so that I can “air out” my sin and weaknesses in an environment that fostered growth.  It's way to easy for me to tell myself that I have to do it all by myself and should be able to do it without outside support.  Nothing could be farther from the truth.  I'm reminded again of Solomon's words in Ecclesiastes 4:5-6,  “Two are better than one,     because they have a good return for their labor: 10 If either of them falls down,     one can help the other up. But pity anyone who falls     and has no one to help them up. My pride and fear would often keep me from seeking friendships with men who were as strong or stronger than me in the areas I was looking to grow in.  I had to realize that two are better than one.  I need someone in my life who can pick me up when I fall down.  My marriage is certainly one of those relationships, but that alone is not enough.  I need a number of trusted friends who can help me be a multiplying disciple and “have a good return” for my labor.  I've been watching a series on TV called, “Undercover Billionaire.”  They drop three well-known multi-millionaires into a city they are not familiar with.  They give each contestant $100 cash, an old truck, a new name and identity, and a cell phone with no contacts in it.  The challenge for each contestant is to take their $100 and multiply into a $1,000,000 business in 90 days.  What I found most interesting and surprising about each of these three people is that the first thing they did was make friends with influential people in their new community.  They build their business by building relationships with strong characters in their area.  If I had been dropped off in the same challenge, it wouldn't have been the first thing I focused on.  Jesus created a similar “reality show” challenge two thousand years ago when he sent his disciples off on the “limited commission” in Matthew 10 and Luke 10.  The hidden and yet essential key to victory is found in this passage in Matthew 10, 9 “Do not get any gold or silver or copper to take with you in your belts— 10 no bag for the journey or extra shirt or sandals or a staff, for the worker is worth his keep. 11 Whatever town or village you enter, search there for some worthy person and stay at their house until you leave. 12 As you enter the home, give it your greeting. 13 If the home is deserving, let your peace rest on it; if it is not, let your peace return to you. 14 If anyone will not welcome you or listen to your words, leave that home or town and shake the dust off your feet.   In Luke 10, Jesus echoes this direction by saying find a “man of peace.”  They were told to find a worthy person, a quality friend and concentrate on building a relationship with them.  Why?  Because they would be able to reach far more people through that worthy persons network of relationships.  Good things happen when we build relationships with strong leaders.  Take a look at your friendships around you.  Step one is to determine if you have some good friendships.  Don't be like the man “all alone” with no one to help him up.  If that describes you, it's time to start looking around for at least one good friend. Secondly, start building the number of spiritual, quality relationships.  Ideally, you want five or more friends that you can turn to when tough times hit.  You need people who can offer you advice, encourage you and keep you on track.  Satan loves it when he can isolate someone and take them out like a lion takes out a wounded or young animal.  One reason I started the Rob Skinner Podcast was to build more relationships with strong leaders.  By calling to interview my spiritual heroes I have been able to build relationships with people I respect and honor.  I have learned from them and have grown from the relationship.  The number of my friendships has grown exponentially especially during a time of isolation caused by the COVID pandemic. I recently had dinner with Brock and Anne Roby, who lead a church in the San Francisco Bay Area.  I asked them if they would be willing to have a discipling relationship with each other.  They jumped at it.  We talk every couple of weeks, encouraging each other and doing our best to call the best out of each other. Let me leave you with some practical steps: 1.        Repent of the pride and reject the fear that keeps you from building good friendships. 2.       Stop listening to and making excuses for why you can't be surrounded by good friends.  The only thing stopping you is you and your empty rationalizations. 3.       Realize that you deserve good friends and you have a lot to offer others. 4.      What can you do to build your circle of friendships?  How can you find a “worthy person?”  Find a meetup, join a club, have someone over, start a podcast, contribute articles to an organization you enjoy.  Get involved and find your worthy person. 5.       Make a call this week and set up a time to have fun and start building a friendship.  Text, call email but whatever you do, don't let another week go by without asking for help

Mentorship is a critical component of personal and professional growth. A supportive mentor enables mentees to develop critical skills, make better decisions, and achieve their goals faster by providing guidance, perspective, and encouragement along their journey. Furthermore, mentors benefit by expanding their network, reinforcing their knowledge, and deriving satisfaction from contributing to the success of others. Mentorship is a valuable, reciprocal relationship that fosters learning, development, and change for both the mentor and mentee. In the podcast, Scott Miller shares his insight into how mentorship can impact individuals in various aspects of life. He offers personal stories and experiences, highlighting the importance of recognizing the potential mentorship opportunities that exist beyond traditional boundaries. By emphasizing the powerful and transformative effects of mentorship, Miller encourages listeners to actively pursue mentoring relationships that enrich personal and professional lives, and explains the 13 roles mentors play, based on information in his book The Ultimate Guide to Great Mentorship. In this episode: Unveil the importance of mentorship and why anyone can be a mentor. Decode the 13 essential roles of mentors in guiding their mentees. Realize the value of genuine feedback and vulnerability in fostering strong mentor-mentee connections. Examine the lifelong benefits that mentorship can provide for you and your career. Identify how everything from setting boundaries to celebrating matters in the mentor-mentee relationship (and some language to help you along your way!) Show Notes: 00:00:00 - Introduction, Scott Miller is a multi best-selling author, special advisor on thought leadership for the Franklin Covey Company, and a globally celebrated keynote speaker. He has previously been a guest on The Brainy Business podcast to discuss his books Marketing Mess to Brand Success and Management Mess to Leadership Success. In today's episode, he talks about his new book, The Ultimate Guide to Great Mentorship. 00:06:42 - Importance of Mentorship, Mentorship is a key part of companies' employee development plans. However, most people don't know what to do as a mentor. Scott wrote The Ultimate Guide to Great Mentorship to help people become better mentors. The book outlines 13 roles that all mentors can play, which will help them ask better questions, be more patient, and be more thoughtful. 00:10:16 - Informal Mentorship, Scott shares the story of how Bruce Williams, a radio host who has since passed away, became a mentor to him without ever knowing it. This highlights the importance of informal mentorship and how people can redefine what mentorship looks like. For example, by following favorite bloggers or podcasts, those thought leaders can be a mentor to you (even if you never talk to them and they don't know your name). 00:14:21 - The Power of Mentorship, Scott and Melina discuss the impact of mentorship on individuals and society, highlighting the importance of having a framework for effective mentorship. Scott introduces his book, The Ultimate Guide to Great Mentorship, and introduces the 13 roles a mentor can play. 00:17:32 - The 13 Roles of Great Mentorship, Scott discusses the 13 roles a mentor can play outlined in his book, emphasizing that a mentor may not necessarily play all 13 roles and why they need to adapt their role depending on the mentee's situation (you aren't just one “type” of mentor, you need to wear multiple hats during your time as a mentor). He highlights the importance of having an awareness of these roles and how they can be used to support a mentee effectively. 00:21:01 - The Importance of Validation in Mentorship, Scott shares his personal story of being validated by a stranger at a young age, which had a profound impact on his life. He emphasizes the role of the Validator in mentorship and the power of validating a mentee's genius, skill, and talent. He provides tips for how to effectively validate a mentee and how this can be a transition point for them to move towards more effective mindsets. 00:23:05 - Scott's Six-Step Closing Process, Scott introduces his six-step closing process, which includes naming what has been learned from the mentee, validating their genius, and setting them on their way. He emphasizes the importance of taking away something from each mentor session and using it to improve oneself. 00:28:34 - Caution for the Validator, The Validator role in mentoring should be used with care. Rather than validating mentees for small actions, acknowledge their genius, and give them lifelong courage to retrieve it when they need it. 00:32:41 - The Flagger Role, The Flagger is the challenger on steroids, who stops a conversation in its tracks to challenge an idea. Diplomatically flagging issues prevents potential conflict in the future. 00:37:57 - The Boundary Setter, Setting boundaries is an uncomfortable yet essential conversation that every mentor needs to have. Mismatched or unfulfilled expectations cause most conflicts in life, and setting clear boundaries is key to avoiding any potential issues. Scott provides some sample language the listener can use in their own mentoring sessions immediately. 00:41:24 - Honing in on Boundaries, It's important to have a clear understanding of each other's boundaries in mentorship. Starting with an uncomfortable conversation about boundaries can prevent future awkwardness and allow for a more productive relationship. 00:42:53 - Importance of Situational Mentorship, Scott emphasizes the importance of situational mentorship and tailoring conversations to the mentee's needs. He suggests checking out greatmentorship.com for videos and tools, and invites people to connect with him on social media. 00:44:27 - Scott's Impact on Melina, Melina thanks Scott for being a mentor to her, and Scott reflects on how anyone can be a mentor (with or without realizing it). They encourage listeners to reflect on who has impacted their lives and consider sharing their gratitude with them. 00:45:00 - What is Mentorship?, Melina and Scott discuss the meaning of mentorship and how it can be informal and brief. They encourage listeners to reflect on the mentors in their lives and consider sharing their impact with them. 00:46:19 - Reflecting on Impactful Moments, Melina encourages listeners to reflect on small or big moments that were impactful and consider who was part of them. She suggests telling mentors how they have impacted their lives and invites listeners to connect with her and Scott on social media. 00:46:30 - Conclusion, Melina's top insights from the conversation.

eSports has recently grown into a billion dollar industry. Top professional players rake in millions from competing in games like League of Legends, Overwatch, and Rocket League. Earlier this year, Old Dominion University opened a new state of the art eSports arena. Producer Matt Darroch has the story. And: Video games have inspired hit songs and have been adapted into countless movies. Boris Willis says the next horizon for video games is the stage. He uses cutting-edge video game technology to turn his performances into interactive experiences. Also: Arcades defined pop culture in the 1980's and 90's. But today, they're almost extinct. Zach Whalen charts the rise and fall of one of America's most nostalgic institutions: the arcade. Later in the Show: In 2014, Anita Sarkesian posted a series of videos criticizing sexist tropes in video games. The onslaught of harassment directed towards Sarkesian and other women in the gaming community is known as the Gamergate scandal. Bruce Williams says we're still dealing with the social and political fallout from Gamergate today. Plus: Over the years, politicians and pundits have been quick to blame violent video games for mass shootings. But Jimmy Ivory says there's no evidence to suggest video games lead to violent behavior.

Scott Jeffrey Miller, author of Management Mess to Leadership Success Bill Ringle and Scott Jeffrey Miller discuss the importance of being clear and explicit with your intent in all communications for small business leaders because in the absence of details, people make up stories and those stories can become a(nother) mess. >>> Visit MyQuestforTheBest.com  for complete show notes and more expert advice and inspiring stories to propel your small business growth. My Quest for the Best is a top-rated small business podcast with over 300 episodes of thought-provoking and insightful interviews with today's top thought leaders and business experts. Host Bill Ringle's mission with this show is to provide the strategies, insights, and resources that will unlock the growth potential of your business through these powerful conversations. Interview Insights Top 3 Takeaways Declare your intention on why you called this meeting or are taking this course of action. This provides clarity and lessens the probability of misinterpretations. Most importantly, remember to keep your actions aligned with your stated intentions. Manage expectations by setting boundaries on what you cannot do. It is better to say 'no' and let people down early on rather than make a commitment you wouldn't be able to fulfill. That will break trust, harm your relationship, and damage your reputation.Do not stretch your people more than their abilities or temporary limits. It is better to give your employees wins by setting attainable goals. Let your people know and feel that you care about them as people, not just their work roles. Read the Show Notes from this Episode Radio host Bruce Williams left a profound mark on Scott's astuteness in business and how the world really works. [01:12]Scott shared to whom his book Management Mess To Leadership Success is for. [04:15]Steve Jobs' behavior from 30 years ago is one of the most discussed examples when discussing leadership behavior. Scott openly talks about his humbling moment when what he thought was his best leadership moment turned out to be one of his weakest and how he bounced back from that terrible meeting with his team. [08:11]Scott zeros in on the significance of declaring our intent and the consequences if our actions do not align with it. [13:30]Blaine Lee wrote, "Nearly all if not all, conflict arises from mismatched or unfulfilled expectations." Scott elaborates on this problem with unfulfilled expectations and how to avoid them. [18:12]One story in Scott's book is when a consultant from Canada proved that you can still follow through with your commitment even after being released from it. This story is a showcase of dedication and true commitment. [20:45]The analogy of jockeys and their prized horses and leaders and their prized people. [24:04]Scott uses the fable of the goose and the golden egg to relay to the listeners why good leaders know not to force the capacity out of their employees. [26:44]The analogy of jockeys, their prized horses, leaders, and their prized people. [24:04]Scott uses the fable of the goose and the golden egg to relay to the listeners why good leaders know not to force the capacity out of their employees [29:30]Pete was an employee of Scott's who was afraid to ask because he could not read what Scott could give until Scott asked him to declare his intent. The result is clarity and a better understanding of each other. [29:30]Going back to setting boundaries, Scott explains how just because employees are free to declare their intent, those intentions should still be within what's reasonable. [33:33]My Quest for the Best Lightning round begins. [41:01] Expert Bio Recruited by Dr. Stephen R. Covey's team, Scott built a 26-year career in the world's most respected and influential leadership development firm, serving nearly every role imaginable. From a front-line salesperson to project manager, sales leader, general manager,
