Episode 73: Special Guest - Dr. Lem Usita Summary: In this episode of the Rising Tide Leadership Podcast, host Mo interviews Dr. Lem Usita, an entrepreneur and leadership expert. They discuss Dr. Lem's leadership experience and how he defines leadership. They also explore the obstacles he has faced in his leadership roles and how he overcame them. Dr. Lem shares his early influences and the catalyst for his intentional leadership development. He emphasizes the importance of mentorship and surrounding oneself with a supportive team. The episode concludes with Dr. Lem's recommended reading list and his final thoughts on leadership. Takeaways: Leadership is not easy and comes with challenges and obstacles that must be faced and overcome. Surrounding oneself with a supportive team and mentors is crucial for personal and professional growth. Leadership development requires self-reflection and a willingness to address weaknesses and areas for improvement. Reading books on leadership and learning from other leaders can provide valuable insights and strategies for effective leadership. Facing Obstacles: Every leadership role has its dark side. Organizational culture. Sometimes you jump into a role and there were other people in that role before you Others tell you how to do things Lack of resources Inherit problems It's a cop out to blame the organization for the obstacles. As the leader, it's my responsibility to lead the organization no matter what situation they're in. I need to know what my weaknesses are and I need to shore up my weaknesses in order to lead this organization. The responsibility is on the leader. “If I am not leading well or if I don't lead these folks well, it impacts their family, it impacts their kids. And it might even impact the generation.” When you start thinking and reading and researching and studying leadership, then you're able to:Change your behavior Change your practices Change your habits Every leader can teach you those two things:Things that you want to do Things you don't want to do Surround yourself with people:Mentors Those who walk alongside you Business resourcesCPA, Attorney, etc Lem's Final Thoughts: Lead out of who you are. You lead out of your personality, you lead out of your history, you lead out of your family sculpture, family of origin stuff, you lead out of your trauma and pain, you lead out of your weaknesses, and you lead out of your strengths. And if you're not doing the work of getting to know yourself, you're not growing your effectiveness as a leader, you just aren't. And so it takes courage and humility to do this work—to become better because it's facing yourself and making some huge changes and that takes courage and humility to lead yourself so that you can lead and be effective as a leader.

Carlos Alvarez is the Founder and CMO at Wizards of Ecom, a Miami-based global e-commerce academy educating entrepreneurs on how to leverage Amazon for financial freedom. Carlos is a 15-plus-year veteran in the Amazon space who has scaled his brands into a nine-figure entity. Additionally, he is the Founder and CEO of Blue Bird Media & Marketing Solutions, a digital marketing agency specializing in product sourcing, brand building, Amazon vendor management, PPC, and lead generation. Carlos also hosts the world's largest free-to-attend Amazon Meetup group where participants discuss e-commerce, self-publishing, advertising, and selling on Amazon. In this episode… Scaling a business to seven figures and above requires a strategic roadmap that includes designing a vision, diversifying and expanding, and extending market reach. Boosting market coverage can also involve community building. Why is community essential to brand growth? Carlos Alvarez, an entrepreneur and experienced marketer, asserts that he will only launch a product if there is a demand for it. Many Amazon sellers use pay-per-click advertising to raise brand awareness. Unfortunately, PPC prices have increased by over 30% since 2021 and will continue to rise. Carlos explains that having a devoted community of customers who trust you as a vendor can lead to customer advocacy, word-of-mouth recommendations, and positive reviews. Building a community can be as simple as creating social media accounts. However, Carlos advocates for in-person groups like Meetup. Face-to-face interactions allow for open conversations, brainstorming, and real-time surveys and opinions. On today's eComm Breakthrough Podcast, Josh Hadley interviews Carlos Alvarez, Founder and CMO at Wizards of Ecom, about strategies for building a community and brand. Carlos shares his passion for building community, explains his strategies for managing a portfolio of businesses, and discusses his business ventures.

Gurinder is the founder and CEO of Otto Car, the company that provides cars and finance to most Uber drivers in London.Currently, over 5,000 vehicles on the road are provided through the services of Otto.In the few years since the business was founded and they were operating out of offices in shipping containers in a West London car park, they've hit £50 million in annual revenue and are growing faster than ever - and they've done it all without having to give up any equity or selling to VCs or PE.Coming from an immigrant family background, Gurinder was quick to identify cultural shifts impacting his dad's business, and he used the same strategy to get on board with new and emerging trends in his own business. He realised the importance of hitching your wagon to a company or sector that was growing fast - a bit like a support frigate for a huge aircraft carrier - in his case the aircraft carrier was Uber.According to Gurinder, the foundations of Otto's success are their core values and being mission driven. He explained that when it comes to values, ‘you can't do mission without marching' - in other words, you need to walk the talk and demonstrate it through your daily actionsHe describes the period during COVID when his company was losing £6,000 every hour and he really found out who his allies were - and crucially, who they weren't. - he uses strong language, but it only goes to highlight exactly how important this is to him - and if you're an entrepreneur, I think you will understandTowards the end of our conversation, he shares an anecdote that involves expensive wine and a life lesson, and it's worth listening just to hear that!I learned a lot and was greatly inspired and entertained - and so will you be.Ladies and gentlemen, I give you Gurinder Dhillon.ResourcesOtto Carhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/gurinder-dhillon/?originalSubdomain=ukZero to One: Notes on Startups, or How to Build the Future: Amazon.co.ukBlue Ocean Strategy, Expanded Edition: How to Create Uncontested Market Space and Make the Competition IrrelevantThe Score Takes Care of Itself: My Philosophy of Leadership: Amazon.co.ukThis podcast is produced by GR Media Sponsored by Capital Asset Management

When I first met today's guest over lunch in Colorado Springs, I knew ten minutes into my interview with him that I had found the leader that I was looking for with IJM (International Justice Mission), and he also ended up at the top of my list of people whom I wanted to interview on this podcast. Bob Lonac has a career in leadership that spans over several decades, having been a leader of Young Life for thirty-three years before becoming Executive Vice President of IJM and later C.E.O. of CRISTA Ministries. Bob walks us through his career and all of the different titles and responsibilities that he had with each position, starting with having joined Young Life in 1967 and working with them for thirty-three years before joining IJM and then CRISTA. He explains why he left Young Life and details his first team at IJM and what set it apart, and he also explains why he then left IJN and moved to CRISTA. Bob reflects on his childhood as well and what about his childhood led him to becoming a leader. He acknowledges God for giving him the gift of leadership but also credits his father, who was a hard worker and taught Bob the value of a strong work ethic. He also talks about one of his most satisfying childhood memories being the catcher on his baseball team even though he wasn't the best athlete, clarifying that he loved it because he loved being a leader. I sincerely thank Bob for joining me in this episode of the podcast. Bob had some really insightful points to make about leadership, his hiring process, his challenges and failures over the years, and so much more!

met·a·phys·ics - nounthe branch of philosophy that deals with the first principles of things, including abstract concepts such as being, knowing, substance, cause, identity, time, and space.This is the definition of the word "metaphysics". But then there's also THIS definition:- Abstract theory with no basis in reality.Both are from the Dictionary. You can look them up.But there is another way of defining metaphysics. A way that millions of people around the world prefer to define it. A Way of Life.Enter The Skeptic Metaphysician. My name is Will, and I, like Mulder from the X-Files, want to believe.So I've embarked on a journey of discovery. I've talked to people deeply entrenched in this spiritual world. I've thrown myself into weird and wonderful experiences, I've even joined a coven of witches...all in the interest of finding something.....anything....that will prove that there is something beyond this physical, three dimensional world we all live in.After all, PBS defines metaphysics this way:Derived from the Greek "meta physika" ("after the things of nature"); referring to an idea, doctrine, or posited reality outside of human sense perception. In modern philosophical terminology, metaphysics refers to the studies of what cannot be reached through objective studies of material reality.And this so interests me. Like a lot. Now I'm not talking about the actual scientific study of things not material...I'm talking about the more esoteric studies. Things like:ReincarnationESPAstral ProjectionEnergy HealingClairvoyanceShamanismTarotSpell CastingSpirit ChannelingAstrologyNumerologyWell you get the point. We'll be diving into stuff that is so far from the generally accepted school of thought that I fully expect my mind to be blown.At least, that's my hope. To be fully transparent, its taken me a LONG time to find a single thing that has given me physical, tangible proof that there is something beyond this world. As hard and far as I've searched, there's not much out there that has made me a believer.Fingers crossed that someone out there will be able to prove, once and for all, that this stuff actually exists.So if this kind of thing interests you, or intrigues you in any way, I hope you'll join me as I continue in my search. We're not going to be all mumbo jumbo about this stuff, but rather, really dive into the stuff and see what can come out of it. All, of course, with the utmost respect of those sharing their stories with us.Here's a great book to help:Launch (Updated & Expanded Edition): How to Sell Almost Anything Online, Build a Business You Love, and Live the Life of Your DreamsSocial media?Facebook Instagram

You're in for a treat today! We're speaking to Dave Wakeman, aka the Revenue Architect. Dave is a star in the ticketing and entertainment industry, and he's the guy that American Express referred to as The King of Tickets. Dave has a fascinating story to share! In today's show, he talks to us about creating revenue, how to deal with change, and reinventing yourself. He also tells some amazing stories that are sure to inspire you! Dave Wakeman's bio Dave Wakeman is “The Revenue Architect.” His consulting work has attracted clients such as American Express, Manhattan Construction Company, Volunteers of America, Yahoo!, the United States Department of State, the Seattle Seahawks, and over 100 other leading companies from around the globe. Dave is widely known for his work in modernizing the secondary ticket market and partnering with American Express and Circles on their Black Card ticketing program that revolutionized the way that people buy tickets and view the secondary market. With his consulting firm, the Wakeman Consulting Group, Dave has turned his focus to helping organizations around the globe maximize their profitable revenue. Dave is a powerful advocate for the need for businesses to tell stronger brand stories and that explosive growth isn't a miracle. It is a product of having a great strategy combined with the right marketing and sales efforts. You can see Dave regularly writing and being interviewed about marketing and revenue in the pages of SEAT Magazine, The Seattle Times, The New York Post, and US News and World Report. Dave is also a frequent guest on radio and television, including appearances on The Tom Leykis Show and The Exchange with Amanda Lang and many other media appearances. Nightclubs Dave started his career opening nightclubs in the mid-1990s, and he opened nightclubs all over the country. The club that he opened in St. Louis did not do very well, and that led Dave to one of the best opportunities of his career. A great career opportunity Dave moved to Seattle, knowing no one there, and with about $600 in his pocket. He landed a job working for Paul Allen, who helped start Microsoft with Bill Gates. A talent for marketing Dave helped Paul to open the Experience Music Project, which is on the grounds of the Seattle Center and is now called the Museum of Pop Culture (MoPOP). That was where Dave discovered that he had a marketing talent. Dave Wakeman's move to New York Dave Wakeman's marketing ability led him to many different places. He moved to New York and worked with a company called Americana Tickets. That was where he worked with American Express and the Centurion Card, helping them to figure out how to buy and distribute tickets for their clients all over the world. Dave worked on many different projects Together with the ad agency for Yellowtail Wines, Dave threw Tailgate parties in 36 cities. That was one of the key ingredients that helped Yellowtail to grow and get into Costco. He worked with Coca-Cola on the launch of their Odwalla product, the efforts to support the Affordable Care Act in America and to get President Obama re-elected in 2012. He also did a lot of work in Australia. Generating money Dave Wakeman grew up in very modest circumstances. He realized very early on that the way to make something of himself would be through his ability to generate money and to market and sell effectively. Over the years, he developed an eye for the things in which people look for and find value. Dave Wakeman's thoughts on creating value Dave understands that if you can create enough value for the people you're aiming to serve, then you should also be able to collect some of that for yourself. Unique experiences in LA Dave helps people get registered to vote through #iVoted, which also invites people to attend virtual concerts with some great artists. Helping non-profits Dave loves to give back, so he often uses his expertise to help non-profits. Creating revenue If you want to create revenue or have the most impact, you consistently need to ask three questions: What is the value you're trying to create? Who is the customer that will pay you? How do you reach those people? You need to focus on the value that you're trying to create for people, you need to find the specific person who you can help, and you need to communicate effectively. Strategy and tactics Strategy is where you're trying to get to, and tactics are how you get there. Lack of precision Dave believes that when people lack precision when they speak, it leads to poor outcomes. The King of Tickets Dave Wakeman attributes becoming known as The King of Tickets to luck, his excellent relationship-building skills, and technology. You are not replaceable Dave points out that your ability to be you is not replaceable. So, you need to invest in having a point of view, relationships, and finding ways to create value for the people you serve because none of those are replaceable. Coping with change We need to embrace change. So, although we are going through a terrible time right now, you should not give up because people will come back. Recognizing and embracing the power of change Change will come, no matter what. Many years ago, Dave learned that change is the only thing in life that is certain. And when change rears her beautiful face, you must embrace her because change is the only thing that you have. Reinventing yourself, coming out of the pandemic Coming out of the pandemic, you don't have to be the same person you were going into it. The key to reinventing yourself lies in looking at what you want to do and who you want to become going forward.
