In this episode of Purpose and Profit Podcast, your co-hosts Dave Raley and Carly Berna are joined by Leah Kral, a consultant, public speaker, and author of the book, Innovation for Social Change: How Wildly Successful Nonprofits Inspire and Deliver Results. Beginning with the concept of “Nonprofit Innovation,” Leah dives into what innovation can look like for nonprofits, how it isn't just a for-profit tactic for success, and how innovation comes in all shapes and sizes – from major social changes that affect entire people groups, to smaller, systematic changes that streamline inter-organizational processes.  Leah moves on to talk about how innovation, as a concept, can seem promising, and yet the application can often appear daunting to organizations who may not know where to start. This, Leah explains, is where the ‘how' of innovation comes in.  Offering for-profit examples that can be thoughtfully applied to the nonprofit sector, Leah presents some practical ways that organizations can break through the barriers that often lead to stagnated efforts at innovation and growth. Also along the way, you'll get to hear about: How speaking with your customers or audience can significantly help your organization move the innovation needle forward Creating a culture of psychological safety, i.e. that ‘safe space' to be able to share honest feedback and express new ideas Asking the right questions, using imagination, and employing experimentation that will help your organization adapt and grow Learn more about Leah Kral by visiting:  Leah's website Leah's email newsletter Leah's LinkedIn page Season Five of the Purpose & Profit Podcast is brought to you by: VIRTUOUS Virtuous is a software company committed to helping nonprofits grow generosity.

This Podcast Is Episode 579, And It's About  How To Build Construction Business Systems That Deliver Results In the competitive construction industry, implementing efficient business systems can make a significant impact on the overall success and profitability of a construction business, regardless of its size or specialization. From streamlining operations to improving project management, adopting efficient systems can yield tangible benefits that truly pay off in the long run.   Too many businesses fail because the owner needs to establish efficient business systems. This typically happens because the business owner is so caught up in the company's day-to-day running that the fundamentals of good business management are forgotten. Often, it must be said that the owner doesn't like bookkeeping or other administrative tasks, so these get put on the back burner.   The symptoms are familiar, and their results are disastrous: Poor or non-existent record-keeping. Tax obligations still need to be met. Invoices go out late, and debts remain uncollected. There is one cash flow crisis after another. Goods and services should be correctly costed and priced. Any of these factors can lead the construction business down the slippery path to failure, but all are avoidable. The whole point of implementing sound systems is that they free you to spend more time working on your business, not in it. Sound business systems will strengthen, improve, and simplify your business. They will also make your construction business far more attractive to future buyers. If you have developed clear operating and procedure manuals, your business will be seen as an independently viable unit and less dependent on you. Here are five steps to a better construction business: Good record-keeping and bookkeeping will help you keep on-side with the Internal Revenue Department. You'll sleep better at night if you can meet your tax obligations through sensible planning. You won't fear a tax audit, and you'll know how your business is doing. You won't be caught by a 'sudden tax demand out of the blue' because no such thing exists for a well-run business. You should always know which taxes are due and when. You'll suffer less stress. Good business planning will help you set goals for your business and take specific steps to achieve them. Without goals, where do you think you're going? Running a business without goals is like arriving at an airport and saying, "I'd like to go somewhere." The person at the ticket desk would think you're clueless! Good cashflow forecasting will enable you to anticipate a possible cashflow problem (something all growing businesses experience occasionally) and take steps before the situation becomes a crisis. Banks will respect you if you anticipate issues and make plans in advance. Banks will not respect you—and will indeed categorize you as incompetent—if you tell them you've been 'caught out' by a crisis. Banks don't like crises. They want you to go to them well before any possible crisis with a plan. This shows them you're in charge of your business. Good creditor and debtor control will improve your cash flow. Invoicing promptly and collecting debts on time gives you the cash to pay suppliers on time and get more favorable credit terms from them. It is a virtuous circle. Sloppiness in this department is one of the most common (and unnecessary) causes of business owners experiencing stress and anxiety. So pay your creditors on time and don't let your debtors use you as a free banking service. Realistic pricing and costing will ensure you run your business competitively but profitably. Poor skills could mean operating at unrealistic levels—even at a loss. For example, your profits will erode if you let costs (such as overhead costs) get out of hand. There is no point in increasing sales if you're not increasing your profits. One key area where efficient business systems can make a difference is project management. For instance, using project management software that allows for effective scheduling, budgeting, and resource allocation can improve project delivery, increase productivity, and enhance client satisfaction. By having a clear overview of project timelines, milestones, and resource availability, construction firms can better manage their projects and ensure that they are completed on time and within budget. Moreover, integrating technology into construction business processes can save substantial time and cost. Leveraging advanced estimating and bidding software streamlines the bidding process and allows for more accurate cost projections, leading to more competitive bids and improved profit margins. Additionally, embracing cloud-based accounting and financial management systems can simplify invoicing, expense tracking, and financial reporting, providing better visibility into the economic health of the business. Another area where efficient business systems can yield substantial payoffs is communication and collaboration. Implementing collaborative digital platforms and tools can enhance communication among project teams, subcontractors, and clients, leading to better coordination, reduced errors, and smoother project workflows. By fostering transparent and efficient communication, construction businesses can minimize costly misunderstandings and delays, ultimately improving project outcomes. In conclusion Implementing efficient construction business systems can generate significant payoffs for construction firms. In business, you don't have to be an expert at everything. For example, you might hate bookkeeping. Okay—but do get someone else to do it for you; don't rely on a shoebox for your accounts! You should at least understand the processes and the overall accounting picture, even if you don't want to do the 'drudge work' yourself. Poor systems lead to stress and burnout. On the other hand, good business systems enable you to work smarter, not harder. They free you to work on your business rather than in it. That way, you're more likely to avoid burnout, and you'll be able to take time off work because you can train others to follow your clearly documented systems and procedures.

I'm amazed at how good some ecommerce businesses are. Not necessarily the ones you read about or see on social media. They may or may not be good businesses. I'm thinking instead of businesses that I have seen up close and personally. In these businesses, when operators get crystal clear that bottom line profit is the ultimate driver of the value of their business, they can build SERIOUSLY profitable, valuable businesses. It sounds so simple: relentlessly pursue profit. But it's much easier said than done. And today, I'm explaining what I mean by that phrase and how to actually do it.

While tactics (specific actions or tools, like webinars) are more visible and often get the credit, the underlying strategy (long-term plans and brand-building) is the real driver of success.Tactics are short-term, instantly gratifying actions that can give the illusion of progress. On the other hand, strategies are long-term plans and efforts that genuinely bring about success. Using Alex Hormozi as an example, we show how it was Hormozi's years of strategic brand-building that allowed his tactics, like his webinar, to be successful. Without the right strategy, even the best-executed tactic is likely to fail.Key Takeaways:Tactics vs. Strategy: Tactics are short-term actions or tools that are visible and often credited for success. Strategy, however, is the long-term plan and effort behind that success.Illusion of Tactics: Tactics can offer instant gratification and make things seem easy, but they're not the main driver of success.Using Alex Hormozi as a Case Study: Alex Hormozi had 500,000 people register for his webinar. But the real success driver was the 4+ years he spent building his personal brand.The Iceberg Analogy: What we see (tactics) is just the tip of the iceberg. The real bulk (strategy) is hidden below the surface.Dangers of Blind Copying Competitors: Simply copying another's tactics without understanding or having the underlying strategy can lead to failure.Marketing's Seductive Nature: Marketing can be persuasive, preying on our desires for quick success. But understanding the strategy behind a success story is crucial.Focus on Strategy for Genuine Success (Please!) Before diving into tactics, it's essential to have a solid strategy in place for long-term results.

Scott Couchenour is our faculty member who can tell you exactly why and how to get you focused on results, actions, and the mindset needed to do the strategic work necessary at your level. It's easy to get sucked into too many meetings, too many decisions, and too many tasks. As a senior leader you need to focus on delivering the value that only you can. Usually that means more time on strategic planning and execution, managing investments, aligning staff, and business development — not making a decision for a teammate who is abdicating responsibility to you!

204: How Can Nonprofit Leaders Bring Innovation to Their Organization? (Leah Kral)SUMMARYHow can you foster sustainable innovation within your nonprofit? Between the pandemic and workforce shortages, many nonprofit leaders today are likely exhausted and running out of actionable ideas.

While there are no quick fixes, the effort and energy you put into these solutions now will be the garden for future innovative abundance.

Donato J. Tramuto is an American healthcare executive, global health activist, author and former CEO of Tivity Health. Donato's first book was released in 2016, “Life's Bulldozer Moments: How Adversity Can Lead to Success in Life and Business.” His latest book, “The Double Bottom Line,” is an Amazon Best Seller. Donato is a recipient of the prestigious RFK Ripple of Hope and the RFK Embracing His Legacy Award, for his endless dedication to improving the lives of others. In this episode, Donato discusses the nuances of hardship, developing compassion, being yourself, understanding your associates, and using tenderness to establish trust before relying on tenacity.      https://bit.ly/TLP-321   Key Takeaways [2:20] Donato lost most of his hearing at age eight, for ten years, and had a severe speech impediment until he was 17. The loss of his hearing created in him an enormous sense of compassion for people. [4:14] For his latest book, The Double Bottom Line, Donato, and his team interviewed 41 world leaders and surveyed 1,500 employees across the country. Their research revealed that compassionate leaders need to do more than understand others' pain. They need empathy in action to impact others.[6:24] The Double Bottom Line is not just a business book. Donato shares a life experience. In the book, he tells the reader, “Listen to understand, don't listen to react.” Donato suggests that if we practice compassionate leadership in our daily lives, we'll take it into our business lives. [8:04] Jan recalls recent guest Michael Bungay Stanier speaking about being compassionate, generous, and kind every day. Jan stresses the difference between being compassionate and being nice. Donato says, “If you want to be liked in a company, you're probably better to go out and get 100 golden retrievers! Compassionate leadership is not just about being nice.” [9:38] Donato advocates three Ts: approach your organization with Tenderness first, to get the Trust. Then you can use Tenacity. When making tough decisions, don't start with tenacity. You gain trust by taking the time to understand each person in your organization. [10:42] As the CEO of Healthways (Tivity), Donato avoided the CEO elevator to ride the regular elevator. He shares an event that unfolded from him asking an employee in the elevator how his day was going. Donato would not have known the employee needed help had he not asked the question. Ask questions to get answers beyond, “I'm OK.” [11:52] Form deep relationships with your associates. Generation Z and Millennials will form 60‒65% of the workforce and they require compassionate leadership or they will leave. People are reflecting on their lives in ways we have never seen in our lifetime. [13:07] In Donato's last year as CEO of Tivity Health, he took a hard line with an executive in front of nine other executives just before a flight. He felt miserable about it. When his plane landed, he got off and called the executive to apologize to her. Because of that apology, their relationship blossomed. With compassionate leadership, you feel better, you don't take problems home, and you gain credibility! [15:42] Jim quotes Dale Carnegie, who said, “Be interested, not interesting.” [16:36] Donato is thrilled to announce that the Boston University School of Public Health is going to convert The Double Bottom Line: How Compassionate Leaders Captivate Hearts and Deliver Results, into a curriculum to teach compassion. Many of the leaders Donato interviewed were not born with compassion. They learned it through someone in their family or a teacher. The book is a resource. [17:26] There is an opportunity to train our current and future leaders on how to lead from the heart. Donato's book has assignments at the end of each chapter to help individuals understand the key nuggets of using compassion. Donato's commitment for the next 20 years is to expand this movement beyond the book and to help leaders see the key ingredients to being compassionate. [20:22] Millennials and Generation Z are demanding a totally different approach to the work environment. Leaders will have to step up and embrace that change or they will be losing significant talent; they won't be as competitive or as effective. The success of The Double Bottom Line is a validation of compassionate leadership. Institutions are asking Donato for training. The time is right. [22:51] Donato proposes a Chief Compassionate Leader Officer for the C-Suite. Boards have got to be willing to ask these questions about culture and trust, to validate that the organization is moving in this direction, as opposed to always looking at a spreadsheet. [25:36] What is the right amount of empathy, vs. making hard decisions? Empathy overload means getting too deep into the situation, clouding your ability to make hard decisions. [27:06] When you ask to understand and have gotten to the issue, then you need to come to an agreement and consensus with “and,” not “but.” “I understand your issues, and how do we work together to make sure that your needs are met and the needs of the organization are met?” When Donato has taken that approach, they always got to an end result that worked for both parties. [30:24] Establishing trust comes before results. Donato asks permission to help. Once he had a board member, who was not behaving well, refuse to receive some constructive insight. She said, “No. You're not my coach.” Trust was not established. The board member did not have a favorable outcome; she was later asked to leave the board. Ask for permission to provide constructive insight and most will agree. [32:40] When is it appropriate to address spirituality in the workplace? Donato believes our connection to a spiritual force influences how we behave. If you are a spiritual person, it's not something to be embarrassed by. The world is increasingly secular. People who do not focus on spirituality may otherwise have positive values that guide their behavior for good. Be who you are. [34:40] Until 2014, when he received the RFK recognitions, Donato had not shared with anyone that he was gay and had a partner. In front of 2,000 people, 500 of whom were his employees, he thanked his loving partner of 23 years. The audience stood to applaud. The more you are who you are, the more you develop an understanding in the workforce that you're like the other person in many ways. [37:07] Do people look favorably upon expressions of faith? If you emphasize too much one facet of who you are, then you make it an issue. Donato shares many facets of himself in case someone has one of those facets in common with him. [41:20] Start to look at what you and your associates have in common. You will begin to realize that there is very little that is different about you. Take the time to understand the other person. [43:20] Age discrimination is real. The average CEO is 59 years old. They hire their executive team from the same age group. Until we are willing to diversify the executive team, we will not integrate the values of the different generations to build an incredible team. Donato has just hired a terrific 23-year-old manager and he has learned a lot from her. Ten years ago, he would not have hired one of her age. [46:55] The organization's values should not be decided only by the executive team. Donato tells of changing a company's 10 hard-to-remember values established by executive leadership into five carefully organized and prioritized values developed with the participation of the associates. [47:34] Don't choose when to be compassionate. Show compassion to everyone. Be compassionate all the time, just as a pilot flies a plane in a safe manner all the time. [48:35] Donato's challenge to listeners: There are many issues affecting us today. Start every single day by asking a friend or family member, “Tell me what you're experiencing today.” After you've listened and you've heard them, do something! Kindness and compassion are the new currency of the century. [50:40] Closing quote: “Only those who dare to fail greatly can ever achieve greatly.” — Robert F. Kennedy.   Quotable Quotes “The fluency you're hearing today was not there when I was 17. … I share that with you because I think that part of leadership is being … comfortable with your story. Too many people … don't really understand the steps that led to the successful position you might have.” “You rent your title; you own your dignity.” “If you want to be a compassionate leader, you must have empathy in action to have impact.” “Listen to understand. Understand what the other person might be going through.” “Everyone that you meet most likely is having a more difficult time than you.” “You want deep relationships with your associates. And by the way, we are now faced with five generations in the workforce. Generation Z and the Millennials will soon dominate — 60‒65% of the workforce. If you're not changing as a leader, guess what, you're going to be losing out.” “Part of compassionate leadership is doing some self-reflection. You're not always going to be right and when you are wrong and you admit to it you will gain an enormous amount of credibility.” “My favorite philosopher Yogi Berra once said, ‘You don't want to make the wrong mistake.'” “With five generations now in the workforce, and Millennials and the Gen Z-ers demanding a totally different approach to the work environment, I think that we're going to have to step up and begin to embrace that change or we're going to be losing some significant talent.” “A significant portion of [the Great Resignation] is related to feeling good, and passionate, and putting a soul in your company. … If the leaders of today cannot embrace that, they're going to be gone.” “We have to be willing to understand that it's not one facet that attracts people to you, it's the entire person who you are, and the more willing you are to share those multiple facets, you begin to develop relationships in different venues.” “You have got to have the [company] values developed by everyone in the organization, otherwise, they are not going to stick. And that's what we did. We brought the 10 values down to five. And … we did prioritize them.” “You show compassion to everyone and you're compassionate all the time! You don't pick and choose when you're compassionate. It's like asking the pilot ‘When do you fly the plane in a safe manner?' You always fly the plane in a safe manner!”   Resources Mentioned Theleadershippodcast.com Sponsored by: Darley.com Rafti Advisors. LLC Self-Reliant Leadership.
