Komplexität reduzieren. Klarheit schaffen. Einfach erklären. Fähigkeiten, die in Organisationen hoch geschätzt werden – und völlig zurecht. Doch was, wenn genau darin auch ein blinder Fleck liegt?

Die Folge startet mit einer dichten Bockbier-Atmosphäre. Dabei zeigt sich, wie sehr Bier für die beiden mehr ist als Alkohol – es ist Ritual, Erinnerungsträger und Einstieg in größere Themen.​ Sorbisch, Preußler und die Ernsthaftigkeit des Kasper Sie landen beim Sorbischen und bei Otfried Preußler, dessen Krabat von sorbischen Mythen und Figuren geprägt ist. Und Preußlers Kasper ist eher Ermittlerfigur eingebettet in eine reduzierte Figurenwelt. Von dort aus spannen Jan und Gordian den Bogen zur Debatte, ob alte Kinderliteratur an heutige gesellschaftliche Empfindungen angepasst werden sollte. Sie sprechen über Astrid Lindgren, Michael Ende, koloniale Exotik, problematische Begriffe und die Umbenennung von Figuren wie Pippis Vater als „Südseekönig“. Beim Räuber Hotzenplotz fragen sie, wer eigentlich der Protagonist ist – Kasper und Seppel oder Hotzenplotz – und wie sich Bedrohung, Handlung und Identifikation in Kinderbüchern verschieben.​ Asterix, Lucky Luke, Tim und Struppi: Comic-Universen als Weltverstehmaschine Im Laufe des Gesprächs tauchen weitere Ikonen auf: Asterix, Lucky Luke, Tim und Struppi und die Drei Fragezeichen. Comics und Hörspiele erscheinen als zugängliche Weltmodelle, die mit klaren Typen, humorvollen Überzeichnungen und historischen oder gesellschaftlichen Anspielungen arbeiten – von Rom über den Wilden Westen bis zur heutigen Zeit. Diese Popkultur-Welten helfen, Ordnung in das Chaos der Realität zu bringen, auch wenn ihre Bilder heute kritisch befragt werden müssen.​ Darwin, Mendel und der blinde Fleck der Sinnfrage Im weiteren Verlauf wird es philosophisch und naturwissenschaftlich: Darwin, Mendel und die Evolution stehen für Erklärungsmodelle ohne „höheren Plan“. Ganz radikal: Die Frage nach dem Sinn des Lebens ist eigentlich sinnlos, weil ein System sich nicht aus sich selbst heraus begründen kann – eine Idee, die mit Gödel-inspirierten Gedanken über die Grenzen formaler Systeme verbindet. Sinn braucht immer einen größeren Bezugsrahmen, der außerhalb unserer eigenen Perspektive liegt – etwas wie Gott oder eine höhere Instanz, die wir aber nie wirklich fassen können.​ Douglas Adams, Gott und der Witz der Weltformel Douglas Adams' „Per Anhalter durch die Galaxis“ liefert den ironischen Kontrapunkt: Vielleicht sitzt irgendwo ein Gott mit Katze auf einem Planeten und weiß längst Bescheid – nur hat niemand eine gute Marketingstrategie dafür. Jan und Gordian fragen, ob die wirklich großen Denker vielleicht einfach untergegangen sind, weil sie kein „virales“ Moment hatten, während Namen wie Bach und Goethe Stars ihrer Zeit waren. Am Ende bleibt eine skeptische, aber lebensnahe Pointe: Die Sinnfrage greift alles an – inklusive Religion –, doch Menschen lieben Bejahung, Geschichten und das Weitererzählen. Dies macht diese Folge zu einer Mischung aus Kneipengespräch und philosophischem Salon.​ In dieser Episode erfährst du: - Wie Hamburger Senatsbock, tschechisches Schwarzbier und Craftbier-Kultur Gespräche über Identität und Erinnerungen anstoßen.​ - Warum Kindergeschichten, Hörspiele und Comics uns bis heute prägen, wie wir Abenteuer, Gerechtigkeit und Bedrohung erzählen.​ - Wieso Debatten um Astrid Lindgren, Michael Ende und koloniale Bilder zeigen, wie sich gesellschaftliche Normen verändern - Wie Darwin, Mendel und Gödel helfen, die Grenzen der Sinnfrage zu verstehen - Welche Rolle Douglas Adams' Humor spielt Abonnier unseren Podcast hier oder auch auf Spotify, Apple oder auf YouTube, teile diese Folge mit Freund:innen und erzähle uns in den Kommentaren auf YoutTube oder auf Bluesky von den Geschichten und Figuren deiner Kindheit und wie sie dich und deine eigene Suche geprägt haben.

Maura Kolb, President, of Dryden Gold Corp (TSX.V: DRY) (OTCQB: DRYGF), joins me for an exclusive video update recapping the recent exploration results from early 2026, key takeaways from the prior 2025 exploration program, and the larger fully-funded 2026 work program at the 3 regional areas:  Gold Rock Camp, Sherridon, and Hyndman across their Dryden Gold District, in Northwestern Ontario, Canada.   We also review the constructive signal seen when a few key stakeholders topped their company investments in recent capital raises and through the exercising of warrants.   Maura provides a brief overview of the larger district-scale land page and the exploration potential at each of the 3 key regional areas of focus.    We start off reviewing some the key targets drilled in last season's 15,000 meter program along both the Big Master and Elora Gold trends at the Gold Rock Camp,  incorporating the data sets from the D1, D2, and new understanding of the D3 structural faulting trends.  Maura then highlights the prior drill results from around the Elora-Jubilee Target, Pearl Target, and Laurentian Mine Target; mostly on the hanging wall side of the main trends in multiple parallel trends.   On February 4, 2026 Dryden announced new drill results which tested the Pearl zone in the Gold Rock Target Area. Results show continued expansion of the mineralization at Gold Rock with the discovery of two new footwall zones parallel to the main Elora shear structure at Pearl.  This is the first significant mineralization discovered in the footwall of the Elora Shear at Pearl establishing another high-grade exploration target at Gold Rock. Further interpretation of existing data and this new drilling has revealed a second high-grade pod on the main Elora shear zone. The highlighted intercepts are near surface from 15 to 70 meters vertical depth.   Highlights of the recent 2026 drilling at the Pearl target:    Hole DGR-032 returned 6.4 g/t gold over 3.30 meters including 15.10 g/t gold over 1.00 meters in new high-grade footwall zone at Pearl Hole DGR-031 returned 77.90 g/t gold over 0.50 meters in a second footwall zone at Pearl Hole DGR-032 returned 1.61 g/t gold over 16.40 meters including 6.81 g/t gold over 2.50 meters in the Elora shear at Pearl     We discuss the significance of the broader bulk tonnage mineralization that is then being upgraded by the multiple high-grade intercepts along the hanging wall and foot wall trends, and why it is encouraging to keep seeing both types of mineralization for the overall continuity of the deposit.   Next we reviewed the results released on January 20th from the next 3 holes drilled at Sherridon regional area; which compliment the data collected from the first 3 drill holes put in later last year. This included a broad interval of near surface gold mineralization in hole DSH-004 which returned 1.10 g/t gold over 15.50 metres, including 0.50 metres grading 25.20 g/t gold. Testing to date has focused on only a small portion of the 5km trend, leaving the Sherridon area open in all directions. Additional drill targets for this year will be designed based on analyzing results from the first 6 drill holes in tandem with geological interpretations from soil sample geochemistry, mapping, surveys, and re-logging of historic core.   Then we shifted over the Hyndman area, as a 3rd area of focus for this year's program. Maura outlines that the first 6 holes were just drilled, following up on the detailed mapping from 2024, overlaid with the data from the 2025 channel sampling program along existing outcrop exposures.  Maura outlines where these first 6 drill holes were just completed at Hyndman on the map, and that assays are anticipated to be returned back from the lab in about a month.   We wrap things up with outlining the strength of the management team and board of directors, as well as the very strong list of high profile shareholders like Eric Sprott, Rob McEwen, Bob Quartermain, a number of key funds and institutions, and their 2 key strategic shareholders in Centerra Gold and Alamos Gold.  The company is fully funded for the 32,000 meter drill program and regional exploration initiatives for the balance of 2026. *     If you have any questions for Maura regarding Dryden Gold, then please email them into us at Fleck@kereport.com or Shad@kereport.com.     In full disclosure, Shad is a shareholder of Dryden Gold at the time of this recording, and may choose to buy or sell shares at any time.   Click here to follow the latest news from Dryden Gold   For more market commentary & interview summaries, subscribe to our Substacks:   The KE Report: https://kereport.substack.com/ Shad's resource market commentary: https://excelsiorprosperity.substack.com/     Investment disclaimer: This content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, an offer, or a solicitation to buy or sell any security.

If you need to hire one person, hire a team of people, or transform your business through Talent or Technical Services, Insight Global's team of 30,000 people around the world has the hustle and grit to deliver. www.InsightGlobal.com/LearningLeader My guest: PJ Fleck is the head football coach at the University of Minnesota. Before that, he transformed Western Michigan from one win to 13 wins and a Cotton Bowl appearance. Before his coaching days, PJ was a stud receiver at Northern Illinois and was a guy I played against in college. Coach Fleck has built one of college football's most distinctive culture-driven programs. You'll hear why he maintains an 80-20 split favoring high school recruiting over the transfer portal, how he runs practice with a 32-second clock to make it harder than games, and why he sees himself as a cultural driver rather than a motivational coach. This is a conversation recorded with all of our coaches inside "The Arena." That is our mastermind group for coaches in all sports. And it did not disappoint. Notes: Stop recruiting, start selecting. PJ doesn't chase the highest-rated players... He looks for fit and alignment with his values. Ask yourself: Are you trying to convince people to join your team, or are you selecting people who already want what you're building? Efficiency beats duration. PJ runs 95-minute practices with a 32-second play clock, always moving, always intense. The principle: Make practice harder than the game. Where in your work are you confusing time spent with intensity and focus? Internal drive trumps external motivation. PJ calls his ideal players "Nektons," always attacking, never satisfied. He's looking for people who prove their worth to themselves, not to others. If you need constant external motivation, you're not ready for elite teams. A leader must teach and demand. A team member must prepare and perform. These aren't opposing forces—they're two sides of the same commitment to excellence. My junior year at Ohio University. I was the quarterback of the Ohio football team. We lost to No. 17 Northern Illinois 30-23 in overtime on a Saturday night. P.J. Fleck caught the game-tying 15-yard touchdown pass late in the fourth quarter. PJ finished with 14 catches for 235 yards and a touchdown. (I threw a 30-yard TD pass to Anthony Hackett to put us up a TD right before halftime). Let your team see you played. They do"Guess that Gopher" before team meetings, where players guess which coach's highlights they're watching. Give them a peek behind the curtain. It builds credibility and connection. PJ honors his mentor, Jim Tressel, by wearing a tie while coaching. Who are you honoring through your daily practices? Keep your door open. PJ has no secretary. Players can walk into his office at any moment. Create fluidity between you and your team. Transparency after tragedy is a choice. When PJ's son died from a heart condition, he had two options: never talk about it again, or let it shape him. He chose radical transparency, knowing it would get scrutinized. That's where "Row the Boat" comes from. A losing season reveals what you actually need. After going 1-11 at Western Michigan while also getting divorced, PJ says every coach should experience a losing season. It forces you to identify what you actually need versus what you don't need. Choose what scares you. When deciding on Minnesota, Heather asked him, "Does this scare you?" He said, "Hell yeah, it scares me." His response: "Well then, that's where we're going." Life versus living. Living is the salary and contract. Life is about moments and memory. If you can't stay in the moment and reflect on great moments or hard moments, life will be like mashed potatoes to you. Your expectations should match your resources. The gap between expectations and resources is called frustration. The bigger the gap, the more frustration from everyone around you. Maintain an 80/20 model if you can. 80% high school players, 20% transfer portal. PJ has one of the highest retention rates in the country because of selection and fit, not recruiting. "It's not about the money until it's about the money." The kids' PJ gets value for other things before the money talk. They enjoy the experience of being a college athlete. PJ leads with "I'm really difficult to play for." PJ's opening line to recruits. He asks for a lot. This makes people who are lazy, complacent, or fraudulent run like hell. "This is going to expose me." Start with good people, not good players. Out of 500 kids, who are the best 25 young men? PJ doesn't get five stars. He gets two and three stars who believe they can be five stars. A chip versus a crack on your shoulder. Once you do something the media says you couldn't do, they'll set a new bar. All PJ wants is kids who want to prove to themselves that they can do what people say they couldn't. You don't need PJ's personality. You need the internal drive to be the best version of yourself. That's what he's selecting for. "I'm not a motivational coach. I'm a cultural driver." PJ picks their "how." He picks their journey. If someone needs constant motivation, they're not ready. Peel back the Instagram filter. Everything you see on social media is filtered. You have to dig deeper with this generation to find out who they really are. Hire former players back. PJ's staff has more former players who played for him than ever before. They cut their teeth in the building. In this transactional era, former players help you stay transformational. The HYPRR System. This is PJ's hyperculture framework he created after going 1-11: H (How): The people. Nektons who always attack. How you do one thing is how you do everything. Consistency matters. Y (Yours): Your vision. It's YOUR life, not anyone else's vision. Players are the builders. Don't tell me you want an extravagant home and then hire bad builders. P (Process): The work. The who, what, when, where, and why. Anyone should be able to ask those questions at any point. R (Result): Focus on the HYP. It's not the officials' fault. It's not the other team's fault. R (Response): How will you respond to the result? Don't believe the hype. Everything about hype is before the result happens. Focus on How, Yours, and Process instead. Someone will take what you were taught was horrible and create a business model. PJ uses Uber and Airbnb as examples. We were taught "stranger danger" as kids. Now we get in cars with strangers while drunk and sleep in their homes. The right people plugged into crazy visions can change everything. Define success as peace of mind. That's how PJ's program defines success. Not wins and losses. Train body language. "Big chest" means standing up straight. Players are not allowed to put their hands on their knees or their heads. If you can't hold yourself up, trainers need to check on you. Teach response, not reaction. You can have emotions, but train to not be emotional. The real world wants to see you react. Train to respond properly in every situation. Your words have power. PJ's players know the definitions of 150 words that will help them for the rest of their lives. Give substance to the filters. That's your job as an educator. Cut all the fat off practice. PJ was from the era of 3.5-hour practices. He has ADD and needs to move. He got bored as a player, so he vowed to run practice differently. Run a 32-second play clock constantly. Every 32 seconds, you run a play. You are always under the two-minute warning in practice. This trains your team to operate under pressure. Never practice longer than 95 minutes. It's one thing to watch as a recruit. It's another to experience it as a player. Kids puke during dynamic warmup in the first week because it's that intense. Make practice harder than the game. The game will eventually slow down for your players if practice is legitimately harder. Nektons flow through water currents without being affected. Don't let circumstances dictate behavior. Train this mindset daily. The biggest jump in sports is from high school to college. 17-year-olds playing against 24-year-olds. It's not just talent. It's experience, development, strength, and confidence all at once. Never let any environment be too big for your coaches. Train your staff to be comfortable in all situations, not just your players. Always be learning outside your field. PJ attends leadership seminars with SEALs and Green Berets. At one dinner, a retired military officer who looked like Sean Connery scanned the room quietly, then said: "I'm taking in all the good in the room. I'm also coming up with a plan to kill every one of you, in case I need to." He never came back to the table because he got called to active duty and left for Afghanistan. Always be ready. That's what makes you special. Watch to learn. PJ watched "Landman" and took notes on how to run the next team meeting. His wife hates that he can never relax. Find teaching and education in everything you do. When you stop, you stop growing. Get better at celebrating. PJ has a great bourbon and champagne collection. He celebrates more than he ever has. Balance the intensity with moments of joy. Make transformational programs real. Gopher for Life program. Monthly educational courses. Monthly date nights where players bring their dates and learn dinner etiquette. Monthly racial education class. Weekly coach development on Thursdays, where coaches speak on any topic to advance their careers. Don't let important things stop when the news cycle moves on. COVID and racism got put in the same bracket. When COVID stopped, racism education stopped everywhere. Not at Minnesota. Keep going. Bring back the fun. After wins, players can't wait to pick the design for the next team shirt. PJ gives them five options, and they get into it. People are losing the fun connection that made elementary school great. A coach's job is to teach and demand. A player's job is to prepare and perform. If you're a coach, you better be teaching things: life, sport, relationships. Elite teams are led by players. Your job is to get as many elite people to the front of the bus as possible.

Was sind eigentlich die entscheidenden Vertriebsleiter Eigenschaften? Wenn ich diese Frage stelle, höre ich zwar oft die klassischen Antworten: „Er muss der beste Verkäufer sein", „Er muss ein harter Hund sein" oder „Er muss bei der Mannschaft beliebt sein". Doch ich sage dir heute ganz klar: Das ist nicht die Antwort. Denn die Realität ist deutlich komplexer – und wir können sie sogar mit Zahlen belegen. In dieser Ausgabe schauen wir uns dazu Daten aus einer massiven Studie mit 65 Unternehmen, 12.000 Verkäufern und 2.500 Vertriebsleitern an. Dabei entschlüsseln wir gemeinsam den Code, welche Vertriebsleiter Eigenschaften wirklich über Erfolg oder Misserfolg entscheiden. Schließlich haben viele Unternehmen genau hier einen riesigen blinden Fleck. Geschätzte Lesedauer: 12 Minuten Warum dein Bauchgefühl bei Vertriebsleiter Eigenschaften täuscht Grundsätzlich ist der Vertriebsleiter der Transmissionsriemen zwischen der Strategie des Managements und der Execution durch das Team. Egal ob Umsatzrekord oder Einbruch – in der Vertriebswelt hängt extrem viel von dieser einen Person ab, dem Frontline-Sales-Manager. Jedoch gaben damals erschreckende 63 Prozent der Unternehmen an, dass ihre Manager nicht die Skills haben, um das Vertriebsmodell weiterzuentwickeln. Zwar tappen viele Firmen im Dunkeln und befördern einfach den besten Verkäufer. Allerdings korreliert Beliebtheit beim Team oder beim Vorstand nicht zwangsläufig mit harten Ergebnissen. Hingegen zeigt die Datenanalyse aus dem Umfeld des „Challenger Sale" ein ganz anderes Bild und priorisiert die relevanten Vertriebsleiter Eigenschaften völlig neu. Die DNA erfolgreicher Vertriebsleiter Eigenschaften: Die 25/75-Regel Um Klarheit zu schaffen, hat die Studie diverse Variablen getestet und durch eine Regressionsanalyse gejagt. Folglich lässt sich das Ergebnis grob in zwei Blöcke aufteilen: Ca. 25 %: Management Fundamentals (Grundlegende Führungseigenschaften) Ca. 75 %: Sales Management Skills (Spezifische Vertriebsführungs-Kompetenzen) 1. Management Fundamentals: Das Fundament Konkret sprechen wir hier über Integrität, Verlässlichkeit und die Fähigkeit, wirklich zuzuhören. Dabei handelt es sich um binäre Vertriebsleiter Eigenschaften: Entweder du hast sie, oder du hast sie nicht. Denn du bist entweder integer, oder du bist es nicht. Leider kann man das nur sehr schwer trainieren. Dennoch achten viele Unternehmen bei der Beförderung nicht darauf. Somit lassen sie Leute durch, die zwar gut verkaufen, aber menschlich als Führungskraft ungeeignet sind. Das führt deshalb direkt zu unzufriedenen Teams. Mein Tipp lautet daher: Hier musst du im Recruiting und bei der Auswahl extrem streng sein. 2. Sales Management Skills: Der eigentliche Hebel Die restlichen drei Viertel des Erfolgs machen spezifische Skills aus. Diese unterteilen sich wiederum in drei Bereiche: Selling, Coaching und Owning. Vertriebsleiter Eigenschaften: Müssen Chefs selbst verkaufen können? Selling macht etwa 26 % der Performance aus. Häufig wird diskutiert: Zählt „Verkaufen können" zwingend zu den notwendigen Vertriebsleiter Eigenschaften? Dazu sagen die Daten: Ja, es hilft enorm. Allerdings nicht, damit der Chef für seine Mitarbeiter einspringt, wenn es brennt. Vielmehr geht es darum, exzellentes Verkaufen zu modellieren. Denn ein Top-Vertriebsleiter muss verstehen, wie man dem Kunden eine einzigartige Perspektive bietet (Challenger-Ansatz), Angebote maßschneidert und souverän über Geld verhandelt. Schließlich kannst du nicht coachen, was du selbst nicht beherrschst. Nur wer das verstanden hat, kann es auch glaubwürdig vermitteln. Owning & Innovation als unterschätzte Vertriebsleiter Eigenschaften Zusätzlich zum Coaching (ca. 28 %) ist der Bereich „Owning" der wohl spannendste Faktor. Dabei bedeutet Owning, den Vertriebsbereich so zu führen, als wäre es das eigene Unternehmen. Dieser Ansatz erinnert stark an das militärische Prinzip der Auftragstaktik (Commander's Intent): Das Ziel ist klar (Erobere den Hügel), aber der Weg dorthin bleibt dir überlassen. Genauer gesagt gibt es innerhalb von „Owning" zwei Unterpunkte: Resource Allocation: Ressourcen managen, Prozesse einhalten, Fehler abstellen. Das ist wichtig, aber eher Verwaltung. Sales Innovation: Und genau hier liegt das Gold. Was bedeutet Sales Innovation wirklich? Oft ist Sales Innovation der „Missing Link". Es geht nämlich nicht darum, neue Produkte zu erfinden. Stattdessen geht es darum, innovative Wege zu finden, um einen Deal, der feststeckt, wieder ins Rollen zu bringen. Da Kunden heute oft keine Entscheidungen treffen wollen („Keine Entscheidung ist besser als eine falsche"), muss der Vertriebsleiter hier kreativ werden. „Innovation ist nicht Deal-Inspection. Es geht nicht darum zu fragen: ‚Hast du angerufen?'. Es geht vielmehr darum zu fragen: ‚Was können wir tun, damit es weitergeht?'" Hierbei ist der Unterschied zum Coaching essenziell: Beim Coaching kenne ich die Antwort und bringe sie dem Mitarbeiter bei. Bei der Innovation hingegen kennt niemand die Antwort. Deshalb müssen wir uns zusammensetzen und gemeinsam einen neuen Pfad durch den Dschungel schlagen. Das SCAMPER-Framework: Kreativität auf Knopfdruck Sobald wir unter Druck stehen, neigen wir zu „Narrowing Thinking" – wir greifen auf bekannte Standardlösungen zurück (meistens Rabatte). Doch um innovativ zu sein, brauchen wir „Opening Thinking". Deswegen empfiehlt das Buch „Challenger Sale" hier das SCAMPER-Framework, um neue Optionen für blockierte Deals zu generieren. Nutze diese Fragen, wenn ein Deal feststeckt und du nicht weiterkommst, um neue Lösungsansätze zu finden: Substitute (Ersetzen) Was können wir austauschen? Beispielsweise Materialien, Personen oder Prozesse? Combine (Kombinieren) Können wir Funktionen oder Services verknüpfen, um den Wert zu steigern? Adapt (Anpassen) Welche Lösung aus einem anderen Kontext lässt sich hier übertragen? Modify (Modifizieren) Können wir Form, Haptik oder Zusammensetzung verändern? Put to another use (Anders nutzen) Kann das Produkt einen anderen Zweck erfüllen oder für eine andere Abteilung nützlich sein? Eliminate (Eliminieren) Was können wir weglassen oder vereinfachen, um Hürden abzubauen? Reverse (Umdrehen) Was passiert, wenn wir den Prozess umkehren oder neu anordnen? Effizienz vs. Effektivität: Den Zielkonflikt lösen Dabei entsteht oft ein Zielkonflikt. Einerseits wollen wir Effizienz: Saubere Prozesse und wiederholbare Ergebnisse. Andererseits brauchen wir für komplexe Deals („Nuggets") Effektivität durch Innovation. Folglich ist meine Lösung für dich: Die Prozesse sind die Basis (Pflicht). Denn sie sorgen dafür, dass das Standardgeschäft läuft. Aber um die wirklich großen Deals zu gewinnen, musst du als Führungskraft in den Innovations-Modus schalten (Kür). Somit sind saubere Prozesse die Voraussetzung für kreative Lösungen. Fazit: Vom Verwalter zum Gestalter Zusammenfassend zeigen die Daten: Gute Vertriebsleiter Eigenschaften basieren auf einem Fundament aus Integrität (schwer lernbar) und einem starken Mix aus Selling, Coaching und – ganz wichtig – Innovation. Weil die Welt komplexer wird, dauern auch Kundenentscheidungen länger. Daher brauchen wir Manager, die diese Veränderung nicht nur verwalten, sondern aktiv gestalten. Falls du merkst, dass dein Team in der Routine feststeckt, ist es Zeit, an deinen Vertriebsleiter Eigenschaften zu arbeiten und Innovation zu fördern. Willst du wissen, wo deine Blindenflecken sind oder wie du ein Sales Playbook aufbaust, das Effizienz und Innovation vereint? Dann melde dich gerne bei mir. Wir schauen uns in einem Erstgespräch an, wie wir deinen Vertrieb auf das nächste Level heben.

[Recorded January 28th, 2026] Dr. Thomas Mumford, President of Scottie Resources (TSX.V:SCOT) (OTCQB:SCTSF), joins us to review some recent high-grade gold assay results at both the Blueberry Contact Zone and Scottie Gold Mine area from the 2025 exploration season.  Additionally, we get an update on the targeting preparation for the largest drill program to date planned in 2026, and the Feasibility Study workstreams underway at the Scottie Gold Mine Project; located in the Golden Triangle of British Columbia.   2025 drilling continues to deliver excellent results from the Blueberry Contact Zone. Hole SR25-420 intersected 34.3 grams per tonne “g/t” gold over 3.30 metres, including a high-grade interval of 90.8 g/t gold over 1.0 metres within the Lemoffe vein zone. Hole SR25-424 intersected 9.97 g/t gold over 9.70 metres, including 21.1 g/t gold over 2.45 metres. Of the 27,000 metres drilled in 2025, only ~16,000 metres have been reported to date. There are still 11,000 meters of drilling from the Blueberry Contact Zone to release from last year's program, once received back from the assay lab.   Drilling continues to deliver at the Scottie Gold Mine area from last year's drill program. Hole SR25-445 intersected 14.8 grams per tonne “g/t” gold over 9.80 metres, including a high-grade interval of 69.8 g/t gold over 2.0 metres within the M-Zone. Additional strong M-Zone results include 21.1 g/t gold and 50.6 g/t silver over 3.45 metres in hole SR25-410 and 17.6 g/t gold over 4.40 metres in hole SR25-439. Multiple drill holes (SR25-408, 419, 427 and 445) also intersected gold mineralization within the Wolf Zone, highlighted by an intercept of 7.56 g/t gold over 1.65 metres in hole SR25-408. These results represent the conclusion of 2025 drill results from the Scottie Gold Mine and associated vein zones, i.e., P-, M-, N-, L-, and Wolf Zones.   The Company is planning to initiate a ~50,000 meter drill program for 2026, which will be the largest exploration program to date.  More information will be detailed once all the 2025 drill results from the Blueberry Contact Zone have been assimilated into the geological model.    The recent PEA outlined a robust Direct-Ship Ore (“DSO”) development scenario for the Scottie Gold Mine Project, with strong economics and leverage to the current gold price environment, and additional upside potential through local toll milling.  The DSO process was successfully demonstrated during this trial mining and Bulk Sample, which was mined at the Bend Vein pit at the Scottie Gold Mine Project, then mucked, visually sorted, and crushed over the 2025 summer season.   90% of the payment from the bulk sample has already been received, with the final 10% payment still due.  It will reconcile any difference between estimated and final ounces and will be priced based on metal values at the time grades are finalized and agreed upon.  It is estimated that gold sold will have generated a net profit of ~CAD$9Million for the Company.   Thomas outlines the plan to move straight into work streams for a Feasibility Study (FS), with actual cost estimates and more detailed economics, as the next major economic study to be undertaken.  The FS is slated to take about 8-10 months after all the 2025 drill results from the 27,309 meter program are all returned and integrated into their updated resource model.  The Company is also collecting data for environmental baseline studies in preparation for the upcoming permitting process.    Click here to follow the latest news from Scottie Resources   If you have any questions for Thomas regarding Scottie Resources, then please email us at Fleck@kereport.com or  Shad@kereport.com.   In full disclosure, Shad is a shareholder of Scottie Resources at the time of this recording and may choose to buy or sell shares at any time.       For more market commentary & interview summaries, subscribe to our Substacks:   The KE Report: https://kereport.substack.com/ Shad's resource market commentary: https://excelsiorprosperity.substack.com/     Investment disclaimer: This content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, an offer, or a solicitation to buy or sell any security.

In this episode, I'm sitting down with the incredible Dr. Caroline Fleck, clinical psychologist and author of the transformative new book, Validation. We often talk about allyship as a series of seemingly small, intentional actions, and some of the most profound work happens in the small, everyday moments of how we see and hear one another. Dr. Fleck joins me to pull back the curtain on validation—a skill that is frequently misunderstood but serves as a fundamental prerequisite for belonging and true connection. We dive into her "Validation Ladder" and explore how these techniques can revolutionize not just our corporate cultures, but our personal relationships and how we show up for ourselves. 3 Key Takeaways from Our Conversation: Validation is Not Agreement or Praise: One of the biggest hurdles to being a good ally is the fear that validating a perspective means you agree with it. Dr. Fleck clarifies that validation is about acknowledging the truth in someone's experience—showing them you're there, you get it, and you care—without needing to agree with their logic or offer a "good job." The "Validation Ladder" Framework: Effective validation is a tiered process. It starts at base camp with mindfulness (being fully present), moves through understanding (equalizing and contextualizing why someone feels the way they do), and reaches the top at empathy (authentically emoting and taking supportive action). The Power of Self-Validation: Especially for marginalized groups who have been conditioned to "cover" or minimize their feelings to fit in, practicing self-validation is an essential act of reclamation. Using these tools introspectively allows us to honor our own experiences as valid, which is the first step toward showing up as a confident, authentic leader.

  Der Anlass für dieses aussergewöhnliche Thema sind diverse Coachings, in denen das Thema Perfektionismus aufgekommen ist. Es haben sich Sätze gezeigt wie von einer Kundin, die von sich sagt, sie hätte "schwierigen Perfektionismus", eine andere "ich komme nicht vom Fleck, weil alles perfekt sein muss" und der Satz "mein Perfektionismus steht mir im Weg".   Was sich hinter diesen Sätzen gezeigt hat, ist ein sich selber als falsch einstufen sich selber klein machen und ein Fokus, also Energiefluss weg von dir, auf einen angeblich falschen Perfektionismus   Was ist, wenn das alles nicht wahr ist wenn mit dir nichts falsch ist wenn dein vermeintlich blockierender Perfektionismus dein grösster Schatz ist und daher deine wertvolle Energie bei dir bleiben darf?   Und genau hier liegt die Einladung, in deine Grösse zu gehen einen neuen Level an Selbstvertrauen gewinnen dein Nervensystem und innere Programme an die Klarheit gewöhnen, die dir so gut tut und mit deiner Energie das zu tun, was dir dient   Wir sind in historischen Zeiten. Das meint nach meinem Verständnis die Evolution des menschlichen Bewusstseins: wir wachsen immer mehr in pure Achtsamkeit rein wir werden immer selbständiger und eigenständiger wir nehmen immer mehr alles als pure Frequenz wahr wir werden uns immer mehr der angenehmen Leichtigkeit von Harmonie, innerer Ruhe und Frieden gewahr wir sind uns immer mehr der Steuerbarkeit unseres inneren Befindens bewusst   Und im Zuge dessen werden wir immer klarer wie im Radio, stellen wir auch bei uns immer klarere Frequenzen ein wie im Radio nehmen wir immer mehr störendes Rauschen und Abweichung von der Reinheit der Frequenz wahr wie bei einem rauschenden Radio haben wir immer mehr das Bedürfnis, nachzujustieren, das Rauschen abzustellen und damit die gewollte Frequenz immer klarer einzustellen zudem werden wir immer individueller und authentischer   Ich lade dich daher ein, neu zu denken. Und bei der einen Sache, wo du noch das Label "Perfektionismus" verwendet hast, jetzt noch tiefer und exakter in Frequenzen zu denken und damit die wohltuende Klarheit zu finden, die dir deine Individualität und Lebensfreude bringt. Trau dich, dein Lieblingsleben zu kreieren. Du darfst souverän & gelassen durch dein Leben navigieren! Weil dein Leben leicht sein darf. Sei dir wichtig. Du bist unendlich wertvoll.
