Private equity is making moves in the legal industry, and Crispin Passmore has a message for firms that think they can ignore it: adapt or risk getting left behind. Chris Batz and Howard Rosenberg sit down with Crispin, the co-founder of Stratify and a former U.K. regulator turned law firm consultant, to talk about what's happening on both sides of the Atlantic. Why has the U.K. embraced alternative business structures while the U.S. continues to resist change? Is the legal industry really evolving, or does it just feel that way to those pushing for reform? Crispin shares his perspective on where things stand, why some firms feel no urgency, and what's fueling the momentum in places like Arizona. Crispin also dives into what private equity sees in the legal sector: why investors are drawn to it, how they're already involved, and what it means for firms that want to stay competitive. But money alone won't solve the industry's biggest challenges. Governance structures are outdated. Succession planning is a mess. Many firms still operate as if the market hasn't changed in decades. Crispin explains why those who are looking outward, not inward, will have the biggest advantage in the years ahead. Change may feel slow, but as Crispin puts it, revolutions rarely happen overnight. When the shift picks up speed, will firms be ready?

Exploring the MBTI and it's Applications in the Workplace with Kimberly Collins. Connect With Our SponsorsGreyFinch - https://greyfinch.com/jillallen/A-Dec - https://bit.ly/3ZtGyRFSmileSuite - http://getsmilesuite.com/ Connect With Our Guest Enneagram Reflections | Enneagram Coach SummaryIn this episode of the Hey Docs! Podcast, host Jill Allen welcomes back Kimberly Collins for an insightful discussion on the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) and its practical applications, particularly in small business settings like orthodontic practices. They explore how understanding personality types can enhance team dynamics, improve leadership, and address workplace conflicts. Kimberly explains the four categories of the MBTI, the importance of self-awareness, and the legal and ethical considerations when implementing personality tests in hiring and team management. The conversation emphasizes the value of emotional intelligence and psychological safety in creating a harmonious and productive work environment. Takeaways The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) can be a powerful tool for leaders, particularly in small business environments like orthodontic practices, to enhance self-awareness and understanding of their teams, ultimately creating more harmonious workplaces.It is illegal to use personality typing systems like MBTI or Enneagram for hiring, job placement, or promotions. These tools should be implemented after hiring to understand team dynamics, not as a selection criterion.MBTI focuses on "what" people do, categorizing behaviors and preferences, while the Enneagram digs into the "why" behind actions, examining underlying fears and desires. Both can be used complementarily within a practice for different purposes.For personality typing systems to be effective in a workplace, psychological safety must be prioritized. Team members should feel comfortable expressing themselves without fear of retribution from leaders or colleagues.Understanding that individuals and their leadership styles can evolve over time is important. Regular reassessment and continuous self-improvement can help leaders and their teams adapt and thrive as they grow professionally and personally.Chapters 00:00 Introduction to the Hey Docs!

Welcome to the Health Marketing Collective, where strong leadership meets marketing excellence. In today's episode, we dive into the art of leveraging podcast appearances to effectively promote one's work and become a thought leader in the healthcare industry. We're thrilled to have Sara Lohse, co-founder of the production company Branded Media that powers this podcast, join us. Together, we explore how storytelling and thought leadership can elevate your brand and create a deep connection with your audience. Sara shares invaluable insights on how to effectively use podcast appearances to promote one's work, emphasizing the importance of authenticity and building genuine relationships rather than just driving sales. We'll explore the challenges marketers face when aligning with C-suite executives, the necessity of understanding and defining your target audience, and the critical role of high-quality production in podcast success. Tune in as we discuss the benefits of starting a podcast, preparing for guest appearances, and the impact of podcasts on enhancing brand credibility and visibility. Plus, don't miss out on Sara Lohse's tips for creating meaningful content that resonates with your audience. Whether you're contemplating starting a podcast or looking to refine your current strategy, today's conversation is packed with actionable advice and inspiring stories to elevate your health marketing efforts. Thank you for being part of the Health Marketing Collective, where strong leadership meets marketing excellence. The future of healthcare marketing depends on it. Key Takeaways: Marketing and Executive Alignment: Sara Lohse highlights the critical disconnect between marketing departments and C-suite executives. She stresses the importance of marketers focusing on value and long-term strategies instead of immediate sales returns. This alignment can foster better understanding and more effective communication, ultimately benefiting the organization. Authenticity Over Polished Delivery: The emphasis is on being genuine and relatable. Sara Lohse explains that podcast formats thrive on authenticity and a natural conversation flow, which helps build trust and a deeper connection with the audience. This contrasts sharply with the often overly scripted and formal nature of other marketing channels. Effective Use of Podcasts: Not every company needs its own podcast; being a guest on established podcasts can be just as beneficial. Sara Lohse shares how leveraging appearances on other podcasts, with a clear goal and prepared talking points, can effectively promote one's work and build thought leadership. Investment in Technology: Sara highlights the necessity of investing in quality technology and potentially professional producers to manage podcast production. High-quality audio and smooth production can significantly enhance the listener experience and the credibility of the podcast. Goal Clarity and Audience Understanding: Successful podcasting requires well-defined goals and a clear understanding of the audience. Preparing topics that align with both audience needs and brand goals is vital. This targeted approach ensures the content is valuable and relevant, ultimately enhancing engagement and impact.

Barry also offers practical tips for managers to foster continuous learning and align personal growth with business objectives. Discover how to create high-performance teams and navigate today's corporate complexities. Key Takeaways: -Learning as Transformation: Learning isn't just about transferring information; it's about transforming the learner. Managers need to focus on lifelong learning philosophies, especially in the age of AI, to ensure continuous growth and development. -Curiosity-Driven Development: Managers should identify what their team members are curious about and align these interests with business objectives. -Effective Use of After Action Reviews: Conducting thorough after-action reviews by unpacking stories from all team members can lead to better learning outcomes. -Role of Emotional Presence in Leadership: Instead of focusing on executive presence, leaders should aim for emotional presence. Being authentic, vulnerable, and having a strong point of view can make leaders more effective and increases credibility. "Learning isn't the transfer of information, it is the transformation of the learner. Information used to be power. Knowledge is still power. But really, I think it's forced us to think a lot about what is the difference between information and knowledge." - Andrew Barry #learning #professionaldevelopment #training #AI #artificialintelligence #knowledge #knowledgetransfer #credibility #leaders #managers #CEO #talentdevelopment Connect with Andrew Barry https://curiouslionlearning.com/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/realandrewbarry Connect with Manage Smarter Hosts · Website: ManageSmarter.com · LinkedIn: Audrey Strong · LinkedIn: C.

Going smaller to go bigger might sound counter-intuitive, but this mindset helped Tyler Rossi transform his newly launched recruitment business from zero to $250k revenue! In this episode, you will hear Tyler's approach to niching down and the strategies that helped him win the majority of inbound clients and establish himself as one of the leading authorities in the metals and steel recruitment industry. Tyler is the President of American Dream Search and Host of The Recruiter of Steel podcast. He's one of the top headhunters in America for sales talent in the Steel and Metals Industry. Tyler's story is one of determination and success in the face of adversity, and I'm excited to dive into his experiences and insights today. Episode Outline and Highlights [01:55] How Tyler got into recruitment and why he chose metals as a niche. [08:07] Tyler's story of resilience - getting laid off from a six-digit sales job while his wife was 32 weeks pregnant. [12:44] Difficulties of the first six months of a recruitment business and how niching down became a game-changer. [17:37] Getting the first client via LinkedIn Automation - Tyler shares his tech stack. [20:17] Turning it around from zero to $250k - discussion on business development. [23:53] How to establish yourself as the go-to authority in your niche. [30:57] Podcasting is an effective engagement tool to go above and beyond. [38:39] A creative way of using videos to promote your client and strengthen relationships. [43:55] Work and life integration: How many hours does Tyler work a day to take care of their daughter? [46:01] What is next for Tyler and American Dream Search? Go Smaller to Go Bigger - Top Benefits of Niching Down to a Specific Industry When Tyler attempted to broaden his scope as a sales recruiter - he felt overwhelmed and things did not work out. He recalled how he already established his network in the steel industry and decided to focus on this niche. It was indeed a game-changer for Tyler! His conclusion is “The riches are in the niches!” He highlighted below benefits and how niching down worked for him: Reduced Competition: By focusing on the steel industry, he reduced his competition from 26,000 recruiters in the US to only around five competitors in the same industry in his domain. Authority Building: It was easier for Tyler to add value to the industry and be an established figure in the steel industry through continuous sharing of content and podcasting. Higher Demand: Targeting a specialized industry can lead clients to view you as a high-value resource, as you bring industry-specific knowledge and connections. Even if you only place 10 candidates in a year with an average of $25k fee, you already have substantial revenue. Efficient Networking: Focusing on a niche simplifies networking efforts. Tyler concentrates on key decision-makers and candidates via targeted marketing and MPC. How to Establish Yourself as the Go-To Expert in Your Niche Tyler's reputation grew as he focused on the metal and steel sector, allowing him to generate trust and recognition in the metals industry. He started his podcast, The Recruiter of Steel, to bring added value to the industry. He also utilized LinkedIn by consistently posting content related to the industry which has gained traction, especially to decision-makers. Out of his 7000 connections, around 75% are in the metal and steel industry. Consistency in these actions made Tyler a recognizable authority in his niche. As he shared, “As far as an ROI … I would say the majority of my business now, I would say is inbound. Most of it is coming inbound to me. I haven't run an MPC campaign in probably three, or four months because all of this is coming to me and I have enough business with it. It's because I've established myself as that authority. It's brought in multiple six figures for me just doing posting and just interacting on LinkedIn.” Other Action Items That Turned Around His Business The first six months of Tyler's business brought in no revenue. However, he had a breakthrough that transformed it from zero to a $250k profit. That is niching down, and establishing himself as an authority. However, there are also other action items he shared that helped him, which I am sure a lot of listeners can relate to: Full Commitment and Resilience: When Tyler was laid off, he committed entirely to his recruitment business, even though it took six months of effort without income to gain traction. Mentorship and Continuous Learning: Seeking guidance, Tyler connected with Scott Tuttle, a successful recruiter who provided critical advice on areas like contract terms and marketing strategies. This mentorship helped Tyler refine his approach, close deals, and streamline his operations. Effective Use of Technology: Tyler used a tailored tech stack, including LinkedIn automation through Skylead, Sales Navigator, Apollo for marketing, and Crelate for CRM management. These tools allowed him to be targeted and efficient in his outreach, helping him reach the right clients and candidates without resorting to mass emails. Tyler Rossi Bio and Contact Info Tyler Rossi is the President of American Dream Search and Host of the Let's Talk Talent podcast (now rebranded as The Recruiter of Steel podcast). He is one of the top headhunters in America for sales talent in the Steel/Metals Industry. But it wasn't always this way. For the longest time, Tyler put off going into business full-time. While he had his LLC on the side, Tyler never had the guts to go all in. He had the six-figure tech sales job and the job security and benefits that came with it. He had the house, and the marriage, and his daughter was soon on the way. Fast forward to September of 2023, Tyler was forced to take the leap of faith he was putting off for so long. He was abruptly laid off from his job. There was no warning, no severance…nothing. Six-figure paycheck? Poof

www.wintheseason.com Steve Collins, host of Coach Unplugged from 5th Quarter Studios in Madison, Wisconsin, dives into essential game management strategies, focusing on optimizing timeouts for maximum effectiveness. He begins by acknowledging key sponsors, like Doctor Dish, the leading shooting machine provider, and highlights resources like Teach Hoops, a comprehensive platform for coaches seeking growth. The episode centers on insights from Collins' "Win This Season" masterclass, where he explores fundamental aspects of game management, particularly the structured use of timeouts. Collins emphasizes that effective timeout management can be transformative in guiding a team through high-pressure moments. He breaks down his approach into manageable phases within a timeout, stressing the importance of clear, concise communication and structured steps to help players refocus and understand their key tasks. In Collins' method: First 15 Seconds – Players regroup, grab water, and refocus, while Collins confers with his coaching staff. Next 15-20 Seconds – He and his staff outline core adjustments and assess strategic pivots without overwhelming the players. Remaining Time – Collins delivers one key message, repeated at the end for retention. He also integrates a quick recap of timeout status and possession details via a visual aid from an assistant coach. The philosophy underscored here is simplicity: keeping instructions focused, clear, and manageable allows players to execute without confusion. Collins extends this principle to halftime discussions, end-of-game scenarios, and momentum shifts, reiterating that concise, clear direction empowers players to handle the game's dynamic shifts effectively.
