If you think pens, soda, and car wax sound like the most boring things ever—think again. Our guest, marketing powerhouse Jeff Werderman, has spent 30 years leading at brands like Coca-Cola, Boost Mobile, and ArmorAll, and now he's running the show at Pentel of America (yes, the pen company). But this isn't about writing instruments—it's about writing the new rules for leadership.   Jeff's got some seriously controversial takes on what's wrong with today's workforce, and why your leadership style is probably driving your best people straight out the door. From leading teams of 80 to navigating the Gen Z takeover, Jeff digs into why creating a learning culture—where even the most junior employees act like CEOs of their own desks—is the only way forward.   He doesn't hold back on why hiring for attitude (and the occasional ego bruising) is more important than skill sets and how letting your team think for themselves could be your secret weapon. The episode is loaded with controversy and wisdom. Ready for the hard truth? According to Jeff, you need to embrace the chaos and hand over the reins. And if your team isn't roasting your “lame” social media content, well... they might already be eyeing the exit.   This episode will leave you rethinking everything from your hiring strategy to how you manage your teams. Takeaways: hire for opinions, embrace transparency, and if your employees aren't calling you out—ask yourself why!   Have questions or personal experiences? Drop us a message or join the conversation on LinkedIn —share your own hiring and retention horror stories and tips. Don't miss out—subscribe now and share this episode with your network! Hiring matters—mess it up, and your best talent will be gone before you know it! Key Takeaways: Step Back to Step Up: Discover how empowering others can transform leadership dynamics and drive team success. Hire for Attitude: Understand why a goal-oriented mindset is more valuable than traditional qualifications in today's workforce. Embrace Transparency: Learn how open communication fosters trust and a more productive workplace culture. Create Space for Innovation: Find out how cultivating an environment that encourages creativity can lead to groundbreaking ideas. Empower Ownership: Explore how giving employees autonomy boosts engagement and enhances performance. About Our Guest: Meet Jeff Werderman, the Marketing Yoda and Brand Whisperer. As the Director of Marketing at Pentel of America since March 2018, Jeff leads the marketing function for this venerable global writing instrument company. With over three decades of experience, he is known for awakening the force in brands through inspiring strategies. His impressive career includes revitalizing Chex Cereal as Brand Manager at Nestlé Purina, where he reversed multi-year declines, and transforming Vistage Worldwide as Chief Marketing Officer, where he rebuilt a team of 35 professionals and drove significant increases in member acquisition and retention. At Boost Mobile, Jeff served as VP of Marketing, scaling the brand's growth by targeting urban youth, which resulted in a remarkable increase in subscribers and revenue. Before these roles, he spent nearly a decade at The Coca-Cola Company, where he expanded alliances with Disney and Universal Studios, enhancing Coke's presence in popular culture. Additionally, he contributed as a Consultant at Young's Market Company and held leadership positions at Armor All and Concentrus. Beyond his corporate achievements, Jeff is an Adjunct Professor at California State University, Fullerton, shaping the future of marketing.

Welcome to part two of this two part episode with Chenoa Tarin.Today's guest is Chenoa Tarin, a Brooklyn based, producer, vocalist and songwriter whose sounds are an homage to the music that formed her. Chenoa Tarin also runs “Bouquet,” a monthly femme forward artist showcase in Brooklyn with resident DJ Dewy ‘87.As you'll hear throughout this conversation, Chenoa believes deeply in self-expression and the importance of art.Throughout this conversation, we will discuss:* Chenoa's experience at SAE Institute.* Complementary career paths as a music producer.* The importance of being competent AND kind.* What is technically correct versus what is true and authentic to you.* Chenoa's experience and ideas for starting an event of your own, wherever you are.* And, Chenoa tells us that you can do whatever you want, forever.Top 3 Gems From This Convo:1. REGARDLESS OF YOUR TALENT, ARE YOU KIND?Yes. Make good music. Also, there is no substitute for kindness and connection to a community. You can fail alone, but no one succeeds without the support of others.2. FOCUS ON COMMUNICATING WHAT YOU FEEL, NOT WHAT IS “CORRECT.”Notice if you are imposing rules and limitations about what is technically “correct.” Prioritize the communication of your energy and feeling through your music.3. YOU CAN DO WHATEVER YOU WANT, FOREVER.Remember that when other people say you that you cannot do something, it is not necessarily true.It is something that they said, nothing more.Listen on Apple, Spotify, and YouTube.Tap in with toru:Instagram: @torubeatYouTube: @torubeattiktok: @torubeatTap in with Chenoa Tarin:Instagram: @chenoatarinChenoa's Website: https://www.chenoatarin.com/To jump to a specific moment in the conversation:0:00 Intro 1:38 Another's Success Is Not Your Failure 2:50 Quitting Too Early 4:40 Formal Education and Chenoa's Experience at SAE 14:03 Balancing Competence and Kindness 18:45 How and Why to Start Your Own Show 21:40 Self-imposed Limits and Rules 26:20 Caught Up In Music As Technically Correct 29:40 Comparison 34:10 Save Everything 37:30 Quick Hits - Get to know Chenoa 43:20 Chenoa's parting message 44:30 OutroReferenced:The Creative Act: A Way Of BeingThanks for reading toru's Substack!

Ever wondered about the risks couples are taking when entrusting their big day to a wedding planner with no formal education? This episode grapples with this substantial issue, spotlighting the potential pitfalls of relying too heavily on experience alone, and the discomfort it could breed in couples investing their hard-earned thousands into their celebrations. We challenge the trend of stepping into this industry without comprehensive training, and ponder whether the lack of an educational investment is worth the potential damage to one's reputation and career, not to mention a couple's once-in-a-lifetime event.We extend this discussion to talk more about the significance of formal education in the wedding planning industry and the potential repercussions of leaning on on the job. We shed light on the legal implications of training independent contractors, as well as the criticality of honesty and openness. Delve into the rampant phenomenon of misguided advice in an online context, and how it could tarnish a planner's reputation even before the inception of their career. Moreover, we stress the importance of affiliating with supportive organizations that can guide a planner on their professional journey.Closing on an optimistic note, we discuss the virtues of joining the Certified Wedding Planner Society, and the advantages of owning an official certification in the industry. We reiterate the importance of a legit certification to assure couples that they are in good hands. Plus, we reflect on the value of a supportive network akin to a family, and the benefits of networking with a wider community of wedding planners.

Phantom Electric Ghost Interviews Tracy Pleschourt: Solutions Coach How Self-Made U is filling the disastrous gap that our formal education system creates for students Biography Just a few years ago, I was a successful advertising executive. Stifled by the rigorous, time-consuming demands of the corporate world, I traded in my 20 years of advertising to pursue my real passion: personal and professional coaching. I became a student of my own work and have stopped overeating, and overdrinking, and created a multi-six figure business while teaching others to do the same. About Tracy Pleschourt I am the Founder & CEO of Self-Made U and the Co-Host of the Tracy & Gracie Becoming Podcast, a show I created with my daughter, who is 22, that gives life coaching advice from two different generational perspectives. I have mastered and now teach an operating system necessary to manage your mind and eliminate any obstacle in life, including overeating, overdrinking, time management, career & relationship changes and professional development. I dedicate my work to ambitious, life-long learners yearning for solutions and seeking a better way to create the results they desire and deserve.
