Culture can be a bit of a buzzword.What does it really mean for a company to have values and an identity?And how can leaders of those companies make sure those values don't just become another page on the website or words on a wall in the office?In this episode of Stories of the Movement, we'll hear about Booster, one of the largest school fundraising companies in the country.They've built a culture unlike any other in their team of nearly 1,000 employees. And Chris Carneal, the founder and CEO of the company, saw firsthand how essential Booster's “virtues” became when they faced an unexpected and intense setback. Check out their story in this episode of Faith Driven Entrepreneur: Stories of the Movement. For more information about Faith Driven Entrepreneur and to sign up for our groups, check out our website at faithdrivenentrepreneur.org

How can you celebrate others more in a way that works for you and your community? In this episode, Jeff, Cale, and Chris discuss: The false dichotomy between sacred and secular. Nurturing and celebrating generosity. Why an entrepreneur's greatest asset is their spouse. What generosity can look like in the storms and in the highs of business.   Key Takeaways: We are all called to ministry in the roles we are already at in life. Getting your first client is the first emotional hurdle. Once you get past that, everything gets easier. Making and giving is not all that you can do in your vocational life. Virtues are more actionable, aspirational, and more timeless than values. They are almost, universally approved and celebrated.   "What gets celebrated gets reproduced. Nothing becomes part of your culture more than what gets celebrated." —  Chris Carneal About Chris Carneal: Chris Carneal is the Founder and CEO of Booster, the #1 school fundraising company in America.

What are the benefits of using the Enneagram in the corporate space? The Enneagram helps grow self-awareness and self-knowledge among team members and executives in order to create a richer, more productive, more profitable environment that is also filled with joy, compassion and empathy.  When applied properly, it really gets under the waterline of consciousness and illuminates why you do what you do and can help you understand how you show up in the workplace.  In this special episode, business experts Scott Allender, Karen J. Hardwick, and Chris Carneal join me for a free-wheeling conversation about the benefits of applying the Enneagram in the workplace.

About 15 years ago, Chris and Lyndie Carneal, noticed that most schools are under-funded, and decided to find a better way to raise funds for schools. Chris and Lyndie founded Boosterthon, a turn-key fundraising company for elementary schools with the corporate mission “We Strengthen Schools.” Boosterthon is a high-energy, character-based fun-run program that kids love and that allows schools to raise more money than they think possible. In addition to raising more money, Boosterthon relieves the school and parent volunteers from the burden of fundraising, freeing them to use their time to address other school needs. Now with over 600 full- and part-time employees throughout the U.S., the company served approximately 1900 schools in 2017. Boosterthon is a true servant leader modeled company whose values are: Integrity – we do what’s right. Enthusiasm – we are positive and fun. Leadership – we develop intentional leaders. Results – we do excellent work. Community – we celebrate and care for people. Intentional leadership is Boosterthon’s translation of servant leadership. According to Chris, when he founded the company, he first determined what kind of leader he wanted to be. “To lead others, you first have to lead yourself. To do that, I lead with intentionality, and I encourage and coach others to do that as well. From the first thing in the morning, and throughout the day, be self-aware and question what your leadership intentions are. Then act accordingly.” According to Chris, intentional leadership shares many characteristics of servant leadership. However, it also has a different perspective. While servant leadership begins with serving others, Chris believes, “Intentional leaders start with themselves. The intentional leader allocates time and resources for self-leadership and for understanding their motivations, strengths, and weaknesses. Only then are they ready and able to lead others.” Chris offers these tips for intentional leadership: Find the best talent. Affirm your employees and allow them to act. Model desired behavior well. Check-in often with employees. Champion individuals’ strengths. Challenge individuals’ growth. Boosterthon, under Chris’s leadership, has even developed an app to systematize leaders’ abilities to live these values by communicating, coaching, and leading others. Chris believes in servant leadership and studies many of the leading thinkers and writers on the topic. He also encourages others to implement servant leadership in their companies, as servant leadership often leads to business success. As Cheryl Bachelder points out in her book, Dare to Serve: How to Drive Superior Results by Serving Others, financial results from servant leader led companies far outperform the ROI from companies using traditional leadership models. According to Chris, “Anyone can be a servant leader, but it has to start with you. What type of leader are you, what type of leader can you be. The size and success of your organization will flow from there.” --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/relationomics/message
