Bill Bellamy, Mitchell Mueck, Jaimie Skultety, and GildaGram with Dr. Gilda CarleThis edition of The Neil Haley Show opens with comedian and actor Bill Bellamy, who reflected on how MTV launched him into the middle of 1990s pop culture and gave him the platform that led to comedy and film. Interviewing everyone from Madonna and Janet Jackson to Whitney Houston and Boyz II Men, he said, was a fantastic education, and he credited MTV with making his career work. Bellamy turned to his new film The Bounce Back, opening December 9th, in which he plays Terry Jackson, the manager and agent to Shemar Moore's character, a newly divorced author whose book about recovering from heartbreak turns him into a celebrated relationship guru even though he has no relationship of his own. Promising eighteen laughs per second, Bellamy pitched the movie as a warm holiday escape about love, second chances, and the way real connection tends to creep up when you least expect it, and he hoped audiences would leave hopeful about finding love in their own lives.Neil then welcomed author Mitchell J. Mueck to discuss his memoir The Story. Mueck, who recently turned seventy and moved to Goshen, New York, explained that after a lifetime of people telling him he had too many stories to let disappear, a quiet winter finally gave him the time to write. He shared a remarkably resilient life: one of six children raised by a single mother who supported the family playing cards, he left home at thirteen, lied about his age to become a foreman at seventeen in a Death Valley open-pit mine, married at nineteen and lost his first wife to cancer six months later, and later lost his second wife to cancer as well after twenty-two years together. Contracting polio at three and told he would never walk without a brace, he instead kept getting back up, and he framed resilience as the true engine of a meaningful life. Mueck spoke movingly about how every choice weaves into the lives of others like threads in a tapestry, and about honoring his late wives and his hardworking mother by keeping their stories alive. Neil, who related deeply as a fellow entrepreneur, urged him toward a second book covering his decades building concrete, trucking, and framing companies across several states.The program continues with a Storehouse Media Group simulcast featuring LinkedIn visibility strategist Jaimie Skultety of UpscaleYourBusiness.com. After losing her corporate role in the 2008-2009 downturn, Skultety built a virtual assistant business and eventually found her calling helping coaches, consultants, and fractional executives get visible on LinkedIn. She and Neil agreed the platform's real power lies in genuine relationship-building through direct messages, never a hard sell out of the gate, and in growing a focused, well-defined audience rather than connecting with everyone. She stressed profiles that speak to an ideal client instead of reading like a resume, the value of inviting people to your profile rather than waiting for them to land there, and the newsletter as a standout tool that lands directly in subscribers' inboxes and positions the author as a thought leader. She creates what she calls an authority playbook for each client.The show closes with a GildaGram simulcast featuring Dr. Gilda Carle, who pushed back on the sweeping claim that women alone are responsible for family tragedies. Responding to a heartbreaking news story out of Australia in which a separated father with documented emotional struggles took the lives of his young children and then his own, Dr. Gilda cautioned against the double standard in how these cases are discussed and raised hard questions about how warning signs are recognized and acted upon. She handled the painful subject with care and gravity, urging listeners toward compassion and vigilance rather than blame. Find Mitchell J. Mueck's The Story wherever books are sold.

Most contractors take vacation one of two ways: they work the whole time from a hotel room, or they unplug completely and come back to a month of damage. Either way, ten days off turns into a thirty-day hit to the business.In this episode of Contractor Cuts, Clark and James walk through how to leave for ten days without the company stalling — and why that vacation is one of the best diagnostic tools you have.They cover:Why a 10-day vacation can quietly turn into a 30-day revenue dropHow a one-man show preps every active job before leavingCutting 28 fires a week down to five you can handle from the roadBuilding the re-entry before you leave, so you come back to work, not planningThe vacation tracker that lets a project manager cover your jobs without guessingSetting spending limits and pre-planning crew payments while you're goneWhat your time off reveals about your team — who steps up and who doesn'tWhy the habits that make vacation possible should become how you run every weekIf you haven't taken a real vacation in years, this is the episode that shows you how.

On this week's episode, Wicklow natives Edward, James and Patrick Walsh join Sarah McIntosh and Hannah Furlong to discuss their new show which shines a light on contractors.Running their own contractor and agri hire business, the identical Walsh triplets have become household names staring on TG4s new show Contractors which airs Thursday evenings at 9:20pm.The business was started in 1957 by their late father Ned, who sadly passed away three years ago. Having been involved in the business for 20 years, Edward, James and Patrick are now running the company and “keep the flag flapping in the wind” in their dads honour.They discuss the challenges of drought, which has resulted in a lot of work on farms still needing to be done. Along with this the increased fuel prices have put a massive financial toll on contractors including Walshe's, as they ‘don't know where it will stop'.Filming TG4s Contractors show ‘has been a great laugh' for the brothers, even though they admit they aren't used to being filmed.

Cześć, dzień dobry!W tym odcinku podcastu „BSS bez tajemnic” rozmawiam z Magdaleną Szabelską, Senior Key Account Manager w Adecco, o tym, jak zmienia się rynek IT Contractingu i czego firmy będą oczekiwały od kontraktorów IT w najbliższych latach.IT Contracting przez lata kojarzył się przede wszystkim z szybkim dostarczaniem specjalistów i klasycznym body leasingiem. Dzisiaj ten model przechodzi wyraźną transformację. Firmy coraz częściej nie szukają po prostu kolejnych osób do projektu, ale konkretnych kompetencji i rozwiązania problemu biznesowego.Rozmawiamy więc o tym, kim jest współczesny IT kontraktor, dlaczego doświadczenie i szerokie kompetencje technologiczne zyskują na znaczeniu oraz dlaczego juniorzy mają ograniczone możliwości wejścia w świat IT Contractingu. Pojawia się również temat AI i jego wpływu na liczbę oraz charakter projektów kontraktowych.Zastanawiamy się także nad przyszłością modeli Build, Buy i Rent, znaczeniem upskillingu, automatyzacją procesów rekrutacyjnych oraz tym, czy CV nadal jest najważniejszym elementem oceny specjalisty IT. Rozmawiamy o specjalizacji branżowej, pracy zdalnej, nearshoringu i offshoreingu oraz o tym, dlaczego Polska nadal jest interesującym miejscem do pozyskiwania kompetencji technologicznych.Na koniec patrzymy trzy lata do przodu. AI, data centers i cyber security to według Magdaleny obszary, które będą szczególnie istotne dla przyszłości IT Contractingu. Jednocześnie rynek będzie coraz mocniej przesuwał się od prostego dostarczania ludzi w stronę kompleksowych rozwiązań technologicznych.  Linki:Magdalena Szabelska na Linkedin - https://www.linkedin.com/in/magdalenaszabelska/Adecco - https://www.adecco.com/pl-plOutsourcing IT w Adecco - https://www.adecco.com/pl-pl/szukam-pracownika/uslugi-it  ****************************  Nazywam się Wiktor Doktór i na co dzień prowadzę Klub Pro Progressio https://proprogressio.com/pl/dzialalnosc/klub-pro-progressio/1 – to społeczność wielu firm prywatnych i organizacji sektora publicznego, którym zależy na rozwoju relacji biznesowych w modelu B2B.

Client readiness and coachability are crucial factors in whether coaching is going to be successful, so in this episode we share and discuss our experience in what contributes to coachability and coaching readiness. What questions do you have to ask your client? What should you expect from them? What needs to be aligned for coaching to work? What does the client have to bring to  make coaching work for them? At what point is it best not to take on a client, or to refer them to another coach? We'll discuss coachability scales and questionnaires, the impact of fees, commitment, coach-client fit, and the spectrum of what coaching can be- with a call to action to share your own perspectives on what makes someone be coachable. Chapters00:00 The Nature of Coachability03:11 Readiness for Change06:11 The Role of the Coach09:01 Expectations and Commitment12:06 The Importance of Compatibility15:04 Navigating Client Relationships17:52 The Ethics of Coaching20:58 Final Thoughts on Coachability27:22 Understanding Coachability and Readiness30:06 Factors Influencing Coachability32:30 The Role of Commitment in Coaching35:55 Contracting and Setting Expectations38:55 Financial Considerations in Coaching44:03 Finding the Right Coach for YouResources: KF Coachability ModelCV Coachability IndexYannick's Coaching Starter KitSummaryThis episode explores the nuances of coachability, readiness, and the key factors that influence successful coaching relationships.

Winning government contracts starts with intelligence, not more data, and in this role-reversal episode host Eric Coffie sits in the guest seat while GovCon creator Chelsea interviews him about how he actually navigates the market. Eric breaks down how he got into federal contracting out of pure desperation after the 2008 real estate crash, how a fraudulent lawsuit wiped out roughly half a million dollars and buried him in $200K of debt, and how going back to government contracts pulled him out both times. If you are trying to figure out how to survive a turbulent GovCon market and turn today's chaos into your opening, this conversation gives you the mindset and the mechanics. In this episode you will learn: - Why layoffs, USAID shutdowns, and OTA shifts are a blank slate advantage for new contractors with no existing relationships to lose - How Eric turned two years of free, consistent content into 100% of his organic deal flow without running a single ad - Why the "game and maze" mindset keeps top contractors resilient through every administration and market season - How a contracting officer revealed that agencies are not required by law to classify opportunities under the correct NAICS codes, and why that means SAM.gov is missing opportunities you should see - How Eric built Mindy (Market Intelligence Delivered Daily) by aggregating 34 websites into one pipeline of agencies, decision makers, forecast opportunities, and pain points EPISODE CHAPTERS: 0:00 - Role reversal interview premise and guest intro 2:30 - Getting into government contracting through desperation and crashes 7:00 - Building content to change who wins prime contracts 12:00 - Fraudulent lawsuit, half a million lost, and the comeback 17:00 - Staying positive and grounded in a turbulent market 22:00 - Treating shutdowns and OTAs as a moving game 28:00 - Why new contractors have a blank slate advantage 34:00 - From software engineer to steel buildings to GovCon 40:00 - Why free public tools were too complex for most people 46:00 - Building Mindy and market intelligence delivered daily 52:00 - Why data without intelligence leaves contractors stuck 58:00 - Contracting officers and misclassified SAM.gov codes 64:00 - Content Reaper, LinkedIn tools, and upcoming events Mindy gives you the federal opportunities, agency signals, recompete intel, and pursuit briefs that tell you not just what contracts exist, but which ones to chase and how to win them.

Steve Perry showed up at Sargent the Monday after his University of Maine graduation in 1975. By 6:30 that morning, he was out in the field pounding grade stakes. He retired 46 years later as the company's head of business development.In between, he worked his way through the estimating office under Dale Jellison, helped run a satellite office in New Hampshire, and eventually became one of the central figures in how Sargent evaluated, priced, and won work. He was there for the foreign ownership years, the Mid-Atlantic expansion with BFI, the rebuy in 2005, and the ESOP transition in 2013.In this episode, Steve talks about the shift from highways into utilities and then into renewable energy, and how Sargent was designing and building wind projects in 3D CAD before most of the competition even knew what was going on out in those woods. He's candid about what the foreign ownership years felt like from inside the estimating office, what the rebuy meant for the people who had stayed, and why he thinks the company's real edge has always been the ability to spot what's coming and get positioned before the market catches up.Forty-six years. One company. Steve saw all of it.If you liked this week's episode and are interested in becoming an Employee-Owner at Sargent, please visit our careers page on the Sargent website.https://sargent.us/apply/If you have an episode suggestion, please send your idea to:sbennage@sargent.us

Schedule a Meeting with Joshua TODAY!What if the reason your best guys are quietly checking out has nothing to do with pay, and everything to do with the fact that they don't know you care?In this episode, Joshua Gillow continues his conversation with Ryan Englin of Core Matters, picking up where they left off on using AI to build stronger teams. This time, they tackle something much harder to systemize: how leaders in the trades can actually show their teams they care, without it feeling forced, weak, or out of character. Ryan and Joshua get personal about the culture that teaches men to shove down emotion, the sobering mental health realities in construction, and the simple, low-pressure habits that build real trust on a crew.By the end of this episode, you'll learn:Why "no news is good news" is one of the most damaging beliefs a leader can carry, and what it silently tells your team.A simple onboarding tool called the "fuzzy file" that helps you learn what actually matters to your people, so a birthday card or a favorite snack can speak louder than any speech.Why asking "how did you sleep last night" in a morning huddle might be one of the most powerful leadership questions you can ask, and how sending someone home for a couple of days can save you from a much bigger cost down the road.Listen to the full episode to find out why demonstrating that you care might be the single biggest lever you have for building a team that will go to war with you.Ready to get your copy of The CORE 10?

Schedule a Meeting with Joshua TODAY!What if the biggest reason you're losing good employees has nothing to do with pay, and everything to do with how you communicate?In this episode, Joshua Gillow sits down with Ryan Englin of Core Matters to talk about how AI is reshaping leadership, hiring, and communication in the trades. Ryan shares why the real problem behind most staffing struggles isn't a lack of leads or a labor shortage, but a retention problem rooted in poor communication. They dig into how AI can help owners and frontline managers slow down emotionally charged moments, have tougher conversations with more compassion, and finally solve the dreaded performance review.By the end of this episode, you'll learn:Why AI can't read your tone or body language, and how that "blind spot" can actually make it a powerful tool for responding instead of reacting when you're frustrated with a teammate.A simple, non-confrontational way to open up a tough conversation with an underperforming employee, without triggering defensiveness or a fight-or-flight response.How AI is starting to move beyond the office and into the field, giving technicians and crews real-time answers, SOPs, and the right words to say on the job site.Listen to the full episode to discover why your team already knows whether you care, and why AI might be the tool that finally helps you show it.Ready to get your copy of The CORE 10?

In this episode of the On Track Podcast, President & CEO Eric Ritchie is joined by Project Manager Scott Bartlett, Project Manager Ryan Cullen, and Project Executive Bernard Lupini in the Flywheel Studio to talk about the WingtraRAY, a new drone the Mid-Atlantic region picked up this year. The group breaks down how the drone covers ground far faster than the old quadcopter drone. Bartlett, Cullen, and Lupini talk through how that faster data helps coordinate daily work with foremen and superintendents, keeps GCs and subs on the same page, and gives project executives more solid numbers for billing and forecasting on large-scale earthwork.WingtraRAY Video: https://youtu.be/cKYpSy7LdBIIf you liked this week's episode and are interested in becoming an Employee-Owner at Sargent, please visit our careers page on the Sargent website.https://sargent.us/apply/If you have an episode suggestion, please send your idea to:sbennage@sargent.us
