Can Peter Piper go fast casual? This week's episode of the Restaurant Business podcast A Deeper Dive features David McKillips, CEO of CEC Entertainment, the parent company of Chuck E. Cheese and Peter Piper Pizza. CEC has had an almost literal roller coaster ride in the three years since David became CEO. The pandemic pushed it into bankruptcy and then the reopening helped it come back remarkably strong as fun-and-games chains proved popular among consumers who wanted to get out of the house. We talk about those issues and we also talk about Peter Piper, the regional pizza chain CEC operates. David talks about the company's efforts to break out of its core market. Specifically, he talks about a new type of fast-casual concept based on the Peter Piper name that CEC has started to test. That could give the company a third brand it can grow with. It's a newsy discussion on pizza and games on A Deeper Dive so please have a listen.

From the conversation that I had with Darlene Hope, who is an actress, I have some takeaways I wanted to share. First, it's all about your staying power. Being in the arts, especially as an actor is a marathon. Developing the skills and coping mechanisms you need to run the marathon is essential. Second, when running this marathon, allow life to guide you, stay flexible, and ask yourself if this step supports the next one I want to take. Third, there are levels to this thing. Don't be afraid to start at the ground level in a new artistic medium or career choice.  As a classically trained actress, Darlene Hope's professional acting career has included leading and supporting roles Off Broadway and in regional theaters around the country, solo jazz vocal performances, commercial, film and television appearances, and voice-over campaigns.

In the last year, she has worked on and performed in 5 world premiere & regional premiere plays and musicals, a revival classic American play, and Guest Starred on the network television series The Blacklist and Blue Bloods.

Hey, I've got a question for you. What's your relationship with music like? Is it good? Is it bad? Is it perhaps a little bit of both? Well, on today's episode, I'm gonna get a little bit vulnerable with you, share a little bit my personal life experience with music, my journey with music, and how oftentimes in this journey of playing music and exploring it and getting better, it was quite an abusive and unhealthy relationship. And this past of mine with a bad relationship with music has greatly informed how I approach teaching jazz and the way I help my inner circle members and beyond so that they don't have the same relationship with music for themselves. In this episode:1.  My personal experience with music and how it has shaped his approach to teaching jazz.2. Developing a strong attachment to your identity as a musician and the self-worth tied to your musical abilities.3. The comparison game and the constant feeling of dissatisfaction with your own playing.4.  The extreme practicing and the focus on becoming the best musician, leads to a skewed mindset.5. The importance of dissatisfaction as a driving force for improvement that emphasizes the negative consequences of constantly feeling unsatisfied.6.  The impact of stress and anxiety on playing, particularly when comparing yourself to others. 7.  Avoiding the same mindset and mistakes others made by promoting a healthier and more enjoyable approach to playing music.Important Links:Free Guide to learning standards by ear: Learn Jazz Standards the Smart WayLJS Inner Circle MembershipListen to the Learn Jazz Standards PodcastGet 50% off your first month when joining the Inner Circle: https://members.learnjazzstandards.com/sp/inner-circle-sales-page-podcast-direct/

This Podcast Is Episode Number 526, And It's About Becoming A Better Construction Company Owner By Developing Courage Fear is a natural, emotional response to distress. The evolution of humanity was dependent upon feeling and responding to fear. Unfortunately, for some of us, fear is a stumbling block to unlocking our full potential and becoming great leaders.  Fear can have a significant impact on business activities. If a business owner is afraid of taking risks or making decisions based on past negative experiences, it can hinder their success. It's important to remember that fear is often based on False Evidence Appearing Real or F.E.A.R. It's crucial to approach business decisions objectively and not let fear cloud judgment. By recognizing and addressing fear, business owners can make informed decisions that lead to success. The good news is that courage is like a muscle, and when you exercise courage, it often becomes more robust and more natural. Here are a handful of ways to overcome fear, find courage and become a better construction company owner. 1. Don't lose your sense of direction If you struggle to lead in your construction business or manage your employees, staying connected to your purpose for making your decisions is essential. If you lose your sense of direction, the people you are leading may begin to question your ability and authority. When giving instructions to someone you are charged with leading, be specific about what needs to be done and why. 2. Visualize all of the possible outcomes Visualizing a negative outcome may seem counter-intuitive to building courage; however, realizing that the worst that could happen is not fatal in most situations is incredibly beneficial. Conversely, visualizing a positive and prosperous outcome can give you the bravery to make risky choices and stand behind them occasionally. 3. Be willing to do what other leaders won't If you are surrounded by leaders who continually play it safe but are sensing a need to take the road less traveled and make a bold decision, be willing to do it! The fear of people around you disapproving of your choices can be crippling. But the sense of pride when you carefully calculate your options and make a bold choice that turns out well, will strengthen your sense of courage. 4. Carefully consider the opinions of people around you You don't need to allow yourself to be persuaded by the opinions of others in any way, but occasionally a new view from someone with less experience can bring new life into your construction business. Don't let your employee's inexperience cause you to overlook the great ideas they may occasionally have. Be willing to do things someone else's way occasionally bravely, and your courage will undoubtedly increase. 5. Be willing to commit to success Have the inner strength and courage to keep going even when things get tough because you know that everything will work out in the end; if something has not worked out yet, it is not the end. 6. Make the hard decision and say "no" As uncomfortable as it can be to shut down someone's idea, it is necessary sometimes. Next time someone has an opinion you are completely uncomfortable with, respond by telling them no. Often, no explanation is better than a long explanation when you disagree with a person's idea. As a leader, it is right to go with your gut instinct and override decisions you disagree with. Saying no to bad ideas will increase your courage and even the level of respect your employees have for you. As you can see, building courage is not a complicated process. Building courage is simply taking small steps in your daily life and being unapologetic about doing what you know is right. If you are willing to commit to taking the above steps as a leader, you will soon become more confident in your decisions! Many leaders struggle to feel courageous regardless of their time leading. Fear on all sides Contractors without financial reporting systems they can trust to generate accurate Key Performance Indicators and Reliable Job Cost Reports do not know if they are making or losing money from day to day, which leads to doubt which leads to stress, and they tend to work faster and harder. This frantic behavior raises everyone's stress level, affecting your team, project, and client. Contractors are superheroes! What is your Contractor Superpower? The power of choice.  Increase your pricing Which projects do you say YES to Collect job deposits Ask the client for money Your working hours The area of the country where you want to live You can choose what is best for you, your loved ones, and your construction company. It is easy to listen to the news and become depressed, agitated, or think the day's challenges are hopeless to overcome. Mother Teresa (of Calcutta) said it best: We, the willing, led by the unknowing, are doing the impossible for the ungrateful. We have done so much, with so little, for so long; we are now qualified to do anything with nothing. Final thoughts The rough and tumble world of construction company ownership is not for the weak or the timid. It is an arena where the price of admission is a lot of blood, sweat, tears, long nights, and lost sleep, with peaks of enthusiasm and depths of despair. It can feel like riding a roller coaster operated by a madman trying to convince you to get off, get out and do something more relaxing, like teaching a pig to sing! With careful planning and a solid strategy, you can overcome any obstacles that come your way. Don't be afraid to take risks and think outside the box. Remember, the greatest successes often come from taking bold actions. So be brave, stay focused, and keep pushing forward. Your construction business dreams are within reach! Life is a journey that happens one day at a time, one decision at a time, one choice at a time. Tomorrow is a new day with every potential of being happier if we allow it. We will continue empowering and advocating for contractors and construction business owners like you.

In this week's episode of the Purple Patch Podcast, Ironman Master Coach Matt Dixon takes a closer look at youth sports and the development of young athletes. With his experience as a parent, as well as a coach to world-class professional endurance athletes, executives, and amateurs alike for over 15 years, and using his own background in competitive swimming and triathlons, Matt examines the importance of sports for social and physical development in kids and examines the role parents and coaches play in helping to create meaningful experiences. "This is sport. The journey of becoming. That is much more powerful and more important than the outcomes." - Matt Dixon Matt maps out the discussion in a way that applies not only to parents, coaches, and young athletes but also to adult athletes looking to draw insights for their own development journey. This episode covers the role of sports for kids ages 8 to 18 and suggests a healthy route for developing an athletic foundation. It also provides insight into how we can assist our young athletes in moving beyond outcomes or results, to help them develop athletically, while also establishing essential values and character traits that will last well beyond their playing days. "The sporting journey can be a crucible from which we can apply so many of the experiences into almost anything that we do in the rest of our lives. And that becomes really powerful." - Matt Dixon There are trends and challenges in youth sports that interfere with the positive lessons and experiences that organized sports have to offer. From parents who put too much pressure on their kids, to coaches who prioritize winning over development, these issues can create an environment where young athletes don't reach their full potential or lose their love of the game altogether. Matt examines some of the most common problems in youth sports today and offers suggestions on how they can be addressed. For parents and coaches looking to create an environment where young athletes can excel both on the field and off of it, Matt proposes certain habits they should foster to develop a performance culture and encourage a positive athletic journey. "Remember that you are tasked with building an athlete. And in order to do that, you need to ensure that they have passion, they fall in love, they have a strong structure, a really varied skill set, that then when things are important to get focused, they are best equipped and they are fresh mentally. And so you are building an athlete well ahead of developing a runner, developing a swimmer, turning a baseball player into a pitcher." - Matt Dixon Episode Timestamps 00:00 - 07:39 - Welcome and Episode Introduction 07:46 - 11:36 - Matt's Newsings 11:44 - 01:17:53 - The Meat and Potatoes - Episode 269: Developing Youth in Sport: Observations and Opportunities for Improvement Purple Patch and Episode Resources Purple Patch Video Podcast and More Learn more about 1:1 Coaching PODCAST - Episode 47: Child's Play - FUNdamental Lessons from Youth Development in Sport PODCAST - Episode 95: Youth Development in Sport - Performance Anxiety, Specialization, and the Journey Free Webinar - Hard and Hilly Join the Purple Patch Team - Director of Growth and Business Operations The Purple Patch Center is Open - Learn More and Schedule a Visit Purple Patch Coaching Consultation Learn more about our Tri Squad Program Send us a message This episode is sponsored by our collaboration with INSIDE TRACKER.

As healthcare continues to move through a challenging transition, Ronnie Kinsey explains to Jim Cagliostro how he works with healthcare leaders to surpass their greatest goals and resolve leadership gaps.     Episode Introduction  Ronnie highlights the importance of exposing clinicians to the business side of healthcare, how ‘'one to one to one up'' leadership can lead to multiple gaps of ‘'abyss potential'', and why people must prioritize behavior and check things at the door. He also explains why all leaders should consider an outside resource for support, why coaching is not therapy, and how attitude is key to successfully nurturing leaders.      Show Topics   Healthcare has to incorporate the business side  The challenge of one to one to one up leadership Promotion can result in leadership gaps  Behavioral procedures take priority in healthcare The impact of culture in filling gaps  Developing leaders comes down to personality and attitude Frontline employees can resolve hospital painpoints 04:19 Healthcare has to incorporate the business side  Ronnie said that clinicians must be prepared for the business side of healthcare at an earlier stage.  ‘'There are so many people who got into healthcare with the idea of delivering care. They wanted care. But then you and I have had conversations. You're doing the business side of healthcare now as well. There is the whole business side of healthcare, which cannot be ignored. I think that clinicians schools could probably potentially do a better job of preparing clinicians for the business side of healthcare. Because …..if the bills aren't paid and if there's not access to plan for growing for the future, we've got a problem. So that's got to be there, but I think that it has to be really ingrained into the clinician earlier on. That would be one of my big asks for the new educational shift is that clinicians just be much more attuned to the business side of healthcare. Definitely don't lose the caring side, but be aware of the business side.''   07:30 The challenge of one to one to one up leadership  Ronnie explained gaps happen when people leave as most hospitals only have one leader on the frontlines.  ‘'You on average have one leader per category of management. So the front lines, whatever, until you get up to the C-suite and it's divided other ways. So say you have one leader that you report to, then that's at one level and that leader reports up to another leader at another level. So it's generally a one to one to one up. Well, what if that chain breaks and one of those ones goes out? There's a break. There's no extra time to fill in for that missing person per se. And again, remember we just said it takes about four months to replace them. Well, how to bring the next person up to speed, how to even try to get them close to knowing the personalities that play on that particular whatever we want to call it, the ward, the unit, the floor, the department, service line, you can name that. So look already where the gap comes in. So then from the front line, some people are wondering, "Well, who do I go to?" Okay. We can give them names, we can give them a title and that's fine. That person doesn't have extra time for you. They already have their financial responsibilities because they're in leadership…. So now are they short of resource? Where do they go? There tends to not be just so many extra hands sitting around waiting to help out because systems are really under constraints overall, especially after COVID, right? We're under a whole new redefinition of the healthcare system. It's been coming, I'll say it's for sure been coming since EHR. Well, it became no exception after COVID. … I can make that example at every level, all the way up.''    10:12 Promotion can lead to healthcare leadership gaps  Ronnie explained why promotion can result in a cycle of resentment and resistance if clinicians aren't prepared.  ‘'And again, leaders aren't necessarily born, but leaders can be developed. So then their lies the gap. There lies the gap. So often it happens in healthcare, somebody did so well in the clinical side, they're going to get promoted. Well, guess what? They like the idea, sounds good. They want to grow. They'd like to do something new and at another level. But boom, what if they're not prepared for the business side? What if now they're not prepared to hold somebody accountable. A, they didn't show up on time. B, didn't say the right thing. C, didn't have the right thing and you know where that goes? Then there's the accountability and the disciplining that takes place. Well, then you have resentment. Then you have resistance. Are you following me on the gap yet? Do you see where this turns into a huge cycle? And then at the same time, you need to be delivering care and healthcare efficiently, appropriately, timely and properly all the rights. Right person, right time, right thing, right place, right outcome, right? Applying all of those things, but your time factor doesn't increase. People don't have extra time to work on these things.''   14:28 Behavioral procedures take priority in healthcare Ronnie said people have to check certain things at the door, set expectations and hold others accountable in the working environment.  ‘'I'm going to share with you part of why I'm a coach now. I hired my first executive coach when I was working with a large pharmaceutical company to give a presentation overseas to our sales team and it had to do with behavior. And the executive coach says, "You can have your thoughts. You're entitled to your thoughts. You should have your thoughts, you're a human being. On the job, in this role, these are the behaviors that we'd like to pay you to perform." Boom. Cleared the sky like I'd never seen before. When I heard him say it the way he said it, he said, "You're entitled to your thoughts. You should have your thoughts. You're very welcome to have your thoughts, but on the job, please follow these behavioral procedures that we're asking you to follow."… The new phraseology seems to be like, "Bring your whole self to work." Well, you are anyway. And we are human, we have needs, we have issues. There's a time and there's a place for certain things you may or may not agree. And as adults, as professionals, as mature people, we do learn to check certain things at the door while we perform other things. It's just kind of understood. You'll be able to do that if you are a well trained, good intending, well hired professional. ….We have to set expectations and we have to hold people accountable. We know this is not ideal. We know that it'd be easier to be at the beach with ice cream right now or something like that. But we're now at work and we're doing this and we plan to do this throughout the next eight hours or the next 10 hours, 12 hours for the next three months, for the next three years, whatever it is, are you the right one to carry this behavior out with us during this time?''   20:53 The impact of culture in filling gaps Ronnie explained why bringing in people short-term can create more gaps down the line.  ‘'It's going to take six months to a year before trust develops really, really developed. Because every place of work has the stuff that people do not want to publish and talk about immediately. Every place, anytime you put two people together you have a culture. And we know that culture is important in every place and cultures are unique. Not to say that one is so one off like none in every other place, but every place will never have exactly the same personalities, exactly the same dynamic, exactly the same location, et cetera. So if you're bringing someone, say, who's temporary. Okay, you're here for three months. They have already checked your due date at the door. Okay, welcome. You're here in June, so see you later in September. You're three months. So they've kind of like got that circle around you we're just going to be nice for three months, sometimes. People can work well together. But also for the people who are staying, that's not their long-term solution. There lies another gap. Who's going to be here in October for them? Whether it's an option that that person could get hired on long-term or not, you're still in test phase. People may be withholding what are the real issues? Because what's going to get done about them anyway? And then some people worry, did I say too much? Did I reveal too much about what's really going on? Is it going to look bad on me? Because remember, it's easy to shoot the messenger.''   25:20 Developing leaders comes down to personality and attitude  Ronnie said that the right attitude is essential in leadership, but not everyone can be coached.  ‘'So if we took two terms to work with, let's talk about, okay, there's personality. That's one thing. And then there's attitude. I want to go with attitude. I want to put weight on attitude. The right attitude can take you very far. So then there's kind of the innate attitude. Some people just have that bright shining sun in the sky attitude and they can weather the storm, what have you. Some just truly have that. Some can be shown to look at the sun rather than the mud. Okay. I like that. I heard a quote recently. "Two prisoners looked out from the prison bars, one saw this mud, the other saw the stars." What's your takeaway from that? Exactly. Yeah. You get to choose what you see. One saw a dirty, dismal, hopeless situation and the other one saw hope and aspiration. So attitude can be nurtured and developed, but it helped a whole bunch. If you already bring it, if you already bring it, the nurture curve is shorter. And by the way, as coaching goes, not everyone can be coached. Not everyone is willing to be coached. It's a possibility. It's not a guarantee.''   32:18 Frontline employees can resolve hospital painpoints  Ronnie said that frontline employees can offer viable solutions for the C-suite.  ‘'How can you be the solution? What solution can you bring or suggest? Okay, let's go back to the pay grade conversation. This is one thing I want to take down to the lowest level. I think that companies who could ingrain into their people, I don't know if it could be an incentivized thing, can you look for the solution? Can you bring... So you've got a pain point, you've got a block, you've got a cog in the wheel. What in your view, what is the solution to bring that out? Because no one's going to know the pain better than you if you're in it. If you ask me if I'm up in the C-suite, there's no way,I would have to go and do some research. I would have to bring a meeting together to really understand what it is they're going through down there. Were you at the front line, pass the pain points up, but not looking like a complaint. What are one to two viable solutions that you see for your pain point? Bring that. Try to think of a solution-based approach. I hear your pain. Thank you for bringing that up.

Now, I'll circle back, there lies the gap again. I'm not saying wrong. I'm just saying this goes back to the gap. You need to be out. We got that. If you have the flu, please be out. Now our schedule will be a bit disrupted. So there goes back to a gap. A potential gap. And if not noticed and managed effectively and timely, you're going to have a mess.''   Why it's vital to consider an outside resource for support – and why coaching is not therapy. ‘'I want everyone who might be listening to know that you should never have second doubts about getting any help that you might think you need or want for your mental fitness. Coaching is not mental therapy. … You can get mental toughness from a coach, but it's not therapy. There may be therapists who do some coaching per se, but generally coaching is not therapy.
