Podcast appearances and mentions of carey rome

This is a Podcast Repost from July 5th, 2019, where I was interviewed on the Strategy and Leadership Podcast with Anthony Taylor. I received a lot of great feedback from LinkedIn on this episode and thought it would be a timely repost, given we are entering the strategy planning period for many companies. I really enjoyed being on the Strategy and Leadership Podcast. I hope you enjoy the show. Here are the show notes from Anthony: For this episode of our Strategy and Leadership Podcast, we were joined by Carey Rome, the CEO of Cypress Resources. Referring to himself as a “recovering CPA” , Carey started his career in accounting, and eventually moved into other areas of business, leading to positions as CFO, COO, and now CEO. Throughout his various roles, Carey has developed a wide understanding of business operations and a passion for strategy development. During our conversation, Carey shared his insights on how leaders and teams can better set themselves up for success after developing their strategic plan:  In order to successfully implement a strategic plan, leaders should make sure that objectives and priorities are assigned an owner who is responsible for the associated actions and results and goals. Within each of these areas, goals can cascade throughout their functional areas of the business. Assigning project owners for each area helps so that each project or initiative is tied to the long-term organizational and strategic plan success while at the same time making sure that the details and quarterly deliverables are met.  Leaders can coach these project owners by preparing them for meetings where they will ask them three questions: What has changed, how are timelines impacted, and what do you need? Through preparing for and having this conversation, project owners can be proactive in finding solutions for their problems, while executives and leaders can coach them on making an informed decision. When monitoring the success of a strategic plan, it should be reviewed in 90-day “sprints”. This reflects a balance between long-term goals, and short term results that need to be achieved and helps teams to break down each main objective into sequential tasks to finish in the 90-day timeframe.  The original Podcast can be found HERE.

While still in high school, Carey Rome decided that he wanted to own his own business. Seeing that, his Dad told him to go and speak to his uncle who told him the following: It doesn’t matter if you’re doing really well or you’re doing really poorly. If you have to have someone tell you, your business is at risk. From there, Carey ended up working at the largest CPA and advisory firm in the world at the time before opening up his own firm in 2005. In this episode, Carey shares the ups and downs of going out on his own, plus his struggle of developing an MVP which ended up being his biggest business success- and biggest headache.   My Guest: Carey Rome Carey Rome is a self-declared recovering CPA who somehow can manage both left and right brain activities. Admittedly, right-brain activities are where he thrives. Carey is a constant admirer of smart ideas and an avid (or maybe addicted) Podcast and audiobook listener. But that is for a reason. It wasn’t until audible and podcasts that he discovered that he was an auditory learner. For years he struggled with reading comprehension. Ever since this discovery, it is like a whole new world has opened up.   Episode Highlights: [3:52]: It doesn’t matter if you’re doing really well or you’re doing really poorly. If you have to have someone tell you, your business is at risk. [8:08]: I decided to go to Starbucks to celebrate my launching of my business. I’m walking up the steps because I couldn’t find the elevator. And I’m walking up the steps. And I trip and I spill coffee all over the place. [10:46]: Estie: What do you do first? What do you do? Carey: Um, I did what I do not recommend others do. I bought everyone I know that would go, a bottom lunch or coffee. [16:03]: And now I’ve got a cash flow problem, because I have to have to pay real people, 13 people, starting all at once, traveling every week, which gets expensive. And then I had to float that for 65 or 70 days until I got paid. [29:56]: Yeah, I would say, find a way to document your expertise in a product of some sort. And don’t sell it based on time. Sell it based on the value that you deliver from that product or service. [35:16]: Then one day that client looks up and says, I can’t believe we’re paying Estie this much money! We can hire someone full time for that. And then they say, “Hey Estie, it’s been great. You know what, probably at the end of the next two weeks, we probably need to end this.” [44:33]: I went to larger companies saying. “Surely you do this, well, give me a little guidance on what I’m developing.” And as it turns out, they said, “Actually, we do that very, very poorly. We need that.” So now I’ve got a struggle as it were. I have developed a minimal viable product, and what I need to develop is an enterprise solution. [50:34]: Because the goal is to get up to that peak, and then start another one, and then start another one. I look at it almost like mountain climbing. You go, you hit a little plateau, you’re like, ahhhh, and then you start climbing again.   Quote:  Water the seed.   Resources & Links: Check out Carey on Social: https://www.linkedin.com/in/careyrome/ (LinkedIn) Recommended Book: https://www.amazon.com/Mindset-Psychology-Carol-S-Dweck/dp/0345472322 (Mindset by Carol S.

Carey Rome started as a CPA and advisor to business before starting his entrepreneurial journey in 2005. Today, Carey uses the software and system he's developed to coach and train executive teams to drive growth, add value and scale their businesses.  Today we discuss: 1) The need for a clear vision.  2) The need for shared interlocking priorities.  3) The need for your team to know, it's not about the money. Firm beliefs that are loosely held You need to have a firm understanding of the path that you are on, but also not be stubborn to pivot when necessary.  "The current path your on does not mean it's a safe path". What's the worst thing that can happen? When deciding for change, you need to think about what's the worst that can happen, then: Build a plan, so the worst thing does not happen  Be okay if the worst thing happens  Defaulting to core skills Many people will launch with a new idea, then go back to their core skills in default mode because there's comfort in that zone.  Too Metric Driven Many CEO's and Executives get too metric-driven and lose sight of their vision and their WHY.  If you want to ignite your team, you need to give them a reason. Your team don't care about making you rich; they want to know they're part of a bigger picture and they're helping and engaging with your customers.  Standing still is not a plan Your company needs to grow, and it needs to figure out how to get things done. Maybe it needs to pivot because standing still and staying where you are right now is not a plan.  If you have any questions about this podcast episode, please send me an email at tf@tysonfranklin.com, or you can contact Carey via his website Cypress Resources.  Carey's Books: 3% Leader and Quick Win Strategy Guide Podcast Reviews If you enjoy listening to It’s No Secret with Dr T., please tell your friends, and if you enjoy it a lot, it will put a HUGE smile on my face if you left a review on iTunes, or wherever you like to listen to podcasts.  Subscribe To My Newsletter If you'd like to be kept up to date with my speaking engagements, EVENTS and other activities I'm involved in, please sign up to my NEWSLETTER, and I promise not to spam you with daily emails.  Podiatry Business Mentoring  If you've considered getting yourself a business mentor or coach this year to help take your podiatry business to the next level, and you're sick and tired of all the beige programs currently on offer, please send me an email at tf@tysonfranklin.com and let's discuss your specific business needs.   FREE DOWNLOAD: First 16 Pages of My Book – It’s No Secret There’s Money in Small Business.

Have you ever had an idea that is stuck to your head like velcro? And I mean really stuck. I have. It excites you, scares the hell out of you, frustrates you, keeps you awake at night and sometimes you wish it would just get the hell out of your head. If this happens to you be thankful. Those are the ideas that can really change your life. Carey Rome is the CEO of Cypress Resource and host of the Caged Vision Podcast. Carey explains that “Caged Vision is the feeling of having an idea. Not one that’s popcorn, meaning it’s just a fleeting idea. But an idea that will not leave you alone. And idea that you continue to build on. That will eat you alive if you don’t figure out a way, how to move it forward, how to make it progress”.
