This weeks guest is Taylor Cecil. His passion for holistic training and wellness began in 2007 after he was diagnosed with chronic fatigue syndrome, after training heavily for the professional triathlon circuit. Taylor sought out Jan Catron (CHEK Australia) for his rehab, and his mind and body were transformed. Taylor learnt that intensive training must be balanced with restorative practices to rise to one's highest potential. After seeing for himself the power accessible through holistic practices, Taylor was inspired to follow Jan's path and study CHEK. Fast forward 15 years, Taylor has honed his skills as a holistic movement specialist and is now an authority on holistic health and functional training. With world champion clients from Olympians to Ironmen, World Surf Champions to Wakeboarders, Taylor is highly regarded in peak performance training. As a Certified Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilisation (DNS) Trainer, Taylor brings a unique and highly acute level of expertise to his physical assessments. This gives Taylor's clients' training an extra layer of complexity and detail as the system of DNS is woven into his programs and methods as a coach. In addition to his accolades as a physical coach, Taylor is well known for his ability to bring mental clarity, calm and wisdom to his clients. Deeply passionate about the mental-emotional side of coaching, Taylor is often sought out for mental coaching alone. As a keynote speaker for companies like Red Bull , Everyday Massive and the Entrepreneurs Organisation to name a few, he is well positioned to motivate big thinkers and anyone wanting to transform their mindset and lives. During the podcast Taylor shares about his brand new Wellness Sanctuary “Native State” and his entrepreneurial journey to put it all together. We find out what Taylor was like when he was a teenager, which is very different to who he is today. Taylor shares about traveling with Wim Hof on his first Australian visit, and what he's learnt about releasing adrenalin using Wim Hof's breathing techniques. Of course we talk about when he first noticed intuition being real in his life, and what triggered that for him. Taylor explains a concept about the ideal flow state, a scale of how we need to feel on a scale of 0 to 10 for many different activities. We discuss his biggest fear, and how he deals with lifes frustrations. The final question Taylor answers is a doozey. If his microphone was connected to all 8 billion people on the planet, and they were all listening to you right now, and you knew they would not blame, shame, or judge you for anything you said. What would you say to them? Listen in to hear his answer! @taylorcecil @yournativestate www.nativestate.com.au info@dougbeitz.com dougbeitz.com facebook.com/dougbeitz instagram.com/dougbeitz

Het boek is geschreven door Wendy van Ierschot omdat ze vondt dat er geen goede Nederlandse uitleg was van de verschillende groeifases waar een bedrijf doorheen loopt, bekeken vanuit HR. Wat voor mij niet duidelijk uit het boek komt, maar in het gesprek met Wendy duidelijk werd dat het vooral om impact gaat. Dat het belangrijk is om als vrouw een bedrijf te laten groeien, om een bedrijf te laten groeien wanneer je positieve duurzame impact realiseert met je bedrijf. Het boek is aangevuld met tekeningen gemaakt door Gerrit de Jager. Naast het boek is er ook een online omgeving Het boek bestaat uit zes onderdelen: Inleiding Op een inspirerende manier groeien, hoe doe je dat? Fase 1: ikke-ikke-ikke (0-10 medewerkers) Fase 2: wij-wij-wij (10 - 25 medewerkers) Fase 3: zij-zij-zij (25-60 medewerkers) Fase 4: go-go-go (60-100 medewerkers) Al bespreekt ze het niet in haar boek maar er zijn nog twee fases, volgens Greiner. Het model van Greiner wordt door Verne Harnish in de Scaling Up meothde gebruikt. Wendy noemt het niet in dit boek. Wendy is betrokken bij de Entrepreneurs Organisation, die weer een nauwe band hebben met Verne Harnish en zijn Scaling Up methode. The six phases of growth are (Greiner): Growth Through Creativity – ends in a Leadership Crisis. Growth Through Direction – ends in an Autonomy Crisis. Growth Through Delegation – ends in a Control Crisis. Growth Through Coordination and Monitoring – ends in a Red-Tape Crisis. Growth Through Collaboration – ends in a crisis of Internal Growth. Growth Through Extra-Organizational Solutions. In het boek Alleen maar bazen wordt ook gekeken naar de verschillende fases in groei, maar dan veel meer vanuit een horizontale organisatie structuur.  In de inleiding verteld ze waarom ze uiteindlijk toch gekozen heeft voor groeien met VIE, haar bedrijf. Aangestoken door vrouwlijke Amerikaanse ondernemers. Groei en duurzaam gaan volgens Wendy goed samen. Het boek gaat over wat je nodig hebt op het gebeid van de HR aan de hand van de employee journey. Een adaptive HR zoals ze dat noemt. Het gebied waar VIE People op werkt. Zes cruciale condities voor een succesvol bedrijf Fase 1 werken in en aan je bedrijf. Jezelf ontwikkelen als ondernemer. Jouw plafond van fase 1 en de employee journey: het charmeoffensief. Kun je samenwerken en hebben ze de juiste kernwaarden. Fase 2 eerste valley of death om door te groeien. Wil je er doorheen of stokt het bij 10 medewerkers? Je saboteerd de groei van je bedrijf. Betere beslissingen door rechtvaardig en congruent te zijn - zodat anderen ze begrijpen. Je bent niet meer alleen en ziet niet iedereeen bij de lunch. Loslaten Winnaarsmentailiteit en groei mindset bij je nieuwe mensen Recruitment en onboarding in deze fase goed opzetten Fase 3 Met een winnende people strategie werken aan een betere wereld (SDGs) Meer aan je bedrijf werken. Een MT introduceren. Displine in eenvoudige dingen Behoefte van de mense David Sirota (Rechtvaardigheid, Kameraadschap en Prestaties kunnen leveren) - niet Drive van Pink. Mensen ontwikkelen Fase 4 Groter MT Leven van medwerkers en klanten eenvoudiger maken Leg de lat hoger voor het talent dat je binnenhaalt. Meer talent trekt meer talentvolle mensen aan. Opvallende lessen uit het boek voor mij: Een belangrijk boek voor startup ondernemers om in de kast te hebben en telkens weer te gebruiken. Het boek gaat over de vier fasen tot 100 medewerkers, terwijl het ook interessant is om fases 5 en 6 te ontdekken om echt groots te denken. De werken aan je organisatie versus in je organisatie matrix. Het charme offensief in de eerste fase. Neem rechtvaardige en congruente besluiten als oprichter. Wat is mijn werk als oprichter en loslaten. Recruitment en onboarding goed opzetten. Als organisaties groter worden, moet je structuren bouwen, zaken moet overdragen en loslaten.

On to this week's show! We have something different in that our guest is a successful entrepreneur in the world of Business and not real estate investing, YET. Nick Kindler is the Chapter President of Entrepreneur's Organization, a private membership of seven figure entrepreneurs that Cherry and I also belong too. As a member of the real estate community, I find learning from entrepreneurs just as helpful as learning from real estate investors to broaden my learning.  I also see all these memberships and masterminds costing $20,000-30,000 or more, I wanted you my 17 listeners to be aware of other masterminds, membership groups and Entrepreneurs Organization is less than $10,000 per year and I'm a big fan. Who better to talk about Entrepreneurship than our very own Chapter President Nick Kindler who also happens to be my client who's working with team member, Chris “the Captain” Hook to acquire quality investment properties. Nick is here today to share his experience as an EO member, President, his entrepreneurial journey which includes a $4.5M business that went bankrupt but more importantly how he bounced back, the lessons learned so you may avoid the same mistakes. FYI - failing businesses, losing money and letting staff is not a fun experience in my experience. Please take notes. If you would like to learn more about Entrepreneurs Organisation please reach out to Nick on his company website www.kindlerandcompany.com/contact you can hit me up on email on DM or you look up your local chapter at https://hub.eonetwork.org/ I'll be a the open house event on March 9th that Nick mentions so I hope to see you there! Link: https://www.eonetwork.org/toronto/Pages/upcoming-events.aspx?i=2&s=5 Nick's consulting business helps innovative leaders communicate better, for example I attended Nick's two day workshop on how to give a TED talk which was excellent where Nick deconstructed what goes into an excellent talk then walked us through to write our own and how to deliver with stage presence.  Nick is also the author of Impact: Simplify, Transform, and Perform Pitches and Presentations available at https://www.impactbook.ca/ Without further ado, I give you Nick Kindler.

Business development is the lifeblood of any organisation. It is in many ways about building connections and capitalising on that as well as finding new ways to expand your product or service offering to existing customers. However, with sales being something many people find challenging or even off-putting what does the gold standard of great BD require? To find out, I am speaking to Victoria Butt, who I met around 2013 in a networking group – the perfect BD environment perhaps. Victoria is the Founder and Executive Search Consultant of Parity Consulting, serial entrepreneur, Founder and Chief Training Officer at Evolve Sales Training, Board Member for Entrepreneurs Organisation Sydney and Angel Investor for BIPOC women.  In 2021, BIPOC angels was created, an angel investment fund exclusively working with and supporting females who are Black, Indigenous, People of Colour. A decade ago she founded Parity Consulting, a recruitment organisation specialising in placing diverse and capable talent in Product, Pricing, Digital, Marketing and Data Analytics. Parity was founded to reshape how the industry saw candidates and lift them to be equal to the client. In 2017, she joined Entrepreneurs Organisation in Sydney and lead the first Diversity, Equity and Inclusion initiative the organisation had seen in the APAC region, and now sits on the Sydney Board for member success. In 2020 at the height of COVID-19, Victoria set up Evolve Sales Training, an online sales training platform specifically for Entrepreneurs and Small Businesses. Based on long term sales mentoring, this B2B platform provides processes, accountability and frameworks for busy entrepreneurs and sales professionals to drive sustainable higher revenue. A mother of two young children, wife, blogger, and self-confesses wine snob, Victoria is passionate about anything to do with DEIB (Diversity, Equity, Inclusion & Belonging). Let's discuss the Politics of Business Development. Questions that Victoria canvasses include: As someone in executive search, I imagine business development has been a key part of your career and business life. Give us a snapshot of how you approach BD? Great products and services don't always mean money spinners. My career is in PR and strategic comms and I am always amazed when businesses focus on the shiny stuff like fancy content or social media images on say Instagram and then find that alone won't convert to sales. What is the secret sauce you see missing in many business's sales training practices? More than 40% of actual salespeople say prospecting is the most challenging part of the sales process, followed by closing (36%) and qualifying (22%). How can BD be done organically and authentically – many people who love their business still find “sales” approaches challenging? Is there a tried-and-true way to create a funnel or sales or similar that lands with the right target audience more and converts to sales faster? What role does automatic and tech play in business development and ultimately sales? Can you share an example or two?   CONTACT INFO: LinkedIn: (15) Victoria Butt | LinkedIn W: (15) Parity Consulting: Overview | LinkedIn and Evolve Sales Training – Evolve Sales Training If you are a podcaster who wants to record quality sound with ease, sign up to Zencastr Professional account today for 30% discount.

No, not the hit TV series about a dysfunctional family dynasty with the siblings at war over who succeeds the founding father (who still wants to retain a powerful presence in the company). With virtually every dealership or supplier in the agri-turf sector being a private family business, the challenges associated with deciding who is best equipped to take the business forward in a changing world are very real. I talk to Stephen Shortt, a leading small business strategist about the tensions, the planning, the dynamics, and the personal ambitions that come into to play when deciding on succession issues. Each family set up is different. Sometimes succession is a straightforward matter, at other times when several family members are involved, damaging conflicts can arise that can spread from the boardroom, to dining room and even the bedroom. Speaking from personal experience, Stephen outlines how potentially serious family disagreements, often as a result of dogmatic attitudes, can be diffused to the benefit of all concerned when deciding on succession planning LINKS https://stephenshortt.com (Stephen Shortt website) https://hub.eonetwork.org (Entrepreneurs Organisation)

Julia wurde in einer Unternehmerfamilie groß und sog das Unternehmertum schon mit der Muttermilch auf. So war es nicht verwunderlich, dass sie bereits nach dem Abitur gemeinsam mit ihrer Cousine die ersten eigenen unternehmerischen Schritte wagte. Sie entschied sich dann jedoch zunächst den akademischen Weg weiterzugehen und bekam 2001 ihr Diplom an der Handelshochschule Leipzig verliehen. Den Einstieg ins Berufsleben machte sie als Business Development Managerin bei Bertelsmann. Nach einer kurzen Station bei E-Plus, gründete sie 2003 schließlich, zunächst berufsbegleitend, gemeinsam mit einem Geschäftspartner ihr erstes Unternehmen. Ihr Anteile verkauft Sie jedoch bereits wenige Jahre später und widmete sich anderen unternehmerischen Herausforderungen. Parallel zu ihrem Job als Geschäftsführerin baute sie von 2008 bis 2016 für die Entrepreneurs Organisation ein Accelerator Programm auf, das Unternehmern dabei hilft die magische Grenze von 1 Millionen Euro Umsatz zu erreichen. Heute ist Julia Sparringspartnerin für Unternehmer und Unternehmerinnen und begleitet diese auf Augenhöhe und langfristig bei  ihren strategischen und unternehmerischen Herausforderungen. Im Podcast spreche ich mit Julia über Ihre spannende und vielseitig Karriere. Wir finden dabei heraus, was sie antreibt und gehen ihren Erfolgsrezepten auf den Grund. Besonders spannend im Gespräch mit Julia war für mich zu verstehen, wie sie es geschafft hat, dass sie heute in der glücklichen Position ist und sich aussuchen kann mit wem sie zusammenarbeitet. Herausgekommen ist, wie ich finde, ein spannendes Gespräch mit einer tollen Frau und einem absoluten Role Model für Unternehmerinnen.

Hi, ich heiße Arne und begrüße Dich zu meinem Podcast. Heute ist Kai Petersen zu Gast bei mir. Kai Petersen wurde 1967 in Düsseldorf geboren und gründete dort auch 2019 das Unternehmen „AkustikUnion“. Das Unternehmen bietet Lösungen im Bereich Raum-/Büroakustik. https://akustikunion.de/ueber-uns/ Die besondere Herausforderung des Unternehmens sieht er momentan in folgenden Fragen: Wie kann ich unterschiedliche Raumakustikerlebnisse erfahrbar machen - Wie kann ein Kunde erkennen, ob es eine gute Lösung ist? Welche unterschiedlichen akustischen Erfahrungen kann ein Kunde eigentlich erwarten? Für sein unternehmerisches und persönliches Wachstum sind Kai Petersen schon immer folgende Dinge von besonderer Bedeutung gewesen: Kai Petersen ist mehr an Fragen interessiert, als an Antworten: Im eigenen Unternehmen hatte er einen Schlüsselmoment durch die Frage: „Wo wollen wir in 2 Jahren sein? - Was bedeutet das für die Situation heute und für den Weg dorthin?“ Kai ist überzeugt: Mit den richtigen Fragen kannst du für dich selbst individuelle Lösungen finden. Deshalb ist er auch an deinen Fragen und einem Austausch darüber interessiert! Welche Frage hat dich im Leben (persönlich und/oder beruflich) wirklich weiter gebracht?

With a credit card limit of just R50k and no tertiary education, Dillon started Kilowatt AV in June 2007.

In 2012, Dillon became a member of the Global Entrepreneurs’ Organization, which now forms the fundamental foundation of his growth and personal development. Most successful of which has been his ability to completely step out of his business operationally and free up time to focus on new business opportunities, adventures, public speaking and mentoring young entrepreneurs. He is married with three daughters and loves adventure. Whether it is motor-racing or mountain biking, anything that gets the adrenaline going. Dillon has competed against a formula one racing legend in a reality TV series, cycled from London to Paris, rafted the mighty Zambezi river, completed a full Ironman triathlon and ran the London marathon, to name a few.

Aimee Engelmann has established herself in Australia, but has refused to restrict her business’ growth by expanding operations to the Philippines. She is the CEO and founder of BPO (Business Process Outsourcing) which had a biblical 3849% revenue increase within its first year. Engelmann is also the winner of the 2015 Young Entrepreneur Trail Blazer Award and her efforts and success has made it into many media streams such as the Business News Australia, Courier Mail and Microsoft.com just to name a few. Also guest-writing for Blue Wire Media Blog and the Entrepreneurs Organisation, Engelmann does not show any signs of slowing down, with having just sold her marketing company to a private equity firm.

Former global leader of the Entrepreneurs Organisation, Jodie Dharmawan was the President and Director of PT Winner Garment Manufacturing, in which he leads 1500 employees. He was also the director of the Lee-Cooper Indonesia Clothing Company which contained over one hundred outlets worldwide and manufactures over 500,000 jeans per year!  Jody explains what it was like during the Asian Crisis in 1997 when Indonesia currencies depreciated sharply, experiencing drastic slowdowns in economic growth and loss of confidence by foreign investors. The effects of downward pressure on the rupiah by 800% lead to most Indonesian companies becoming insolvent and required restructuring.   Between August 1997 and December 1998, rapid job losses saw unemployment rise in Indonesia from 4.3 million to 13.7 million people.  Listen to how Jody explains his biggest challenges during this time and that having a peer to peer learning group helped him get past his fear.
