The forecast for industrial real estate is bullish in growth markets for the foreseeable future. As long as you can buy the right properties, and don't overpay or overleverage, it's a recipe for success. Single tenant properties, in particular, have management efficiencies that make them particularly attractive. Brent Leiberman, Founding Principal at Levelan Partners, acquires and develops well-located properties with interstate proximity in select markets in the Midwest and Southeast. He acquires properties less than 150,000 s/ft to avoid competing with larger Private Equity and Institutional buyers.

Stocks sank and Treasuries sold off in Asia Wednesday morning, as financial markets were hit by fresh turmoil after US President Donald Trump ratcheted up the pressure on China and pledged to push ahead with sweeping global tariffs. Bloomberg Opinion's Karishma Vaswani says Washington's tariffs are driving Asian nations to strengthen cooperation with each other and consider drifting back towards China, which could erode American credibility and strategic edge in the Indo-Pacific. She joins the program to discuss her latest column. Plus - The S&P 500 fell 1.6% as trade threats between the US and China knocked down stocks, leaving it on the brink of a bear market. Former Treasury Secretary Lawrence Summers warned that the US is now likely headed toward a recession, with potentially 2 million Americans put out of work, thanks to those tariff increases. We get reaction from Stuart Thomas, Founding Principal at Precidian Investments.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Where have you learned leadership?  On the farm? In a day job? Inherited perhaps?  For most, NONE have learned the vital art and science of leadership.  It is a learned skill. One we can all commit to and master.   One we all need to be successful in life and business, and in succeeding in the pursuit of a family farm that can transcend generations…  It is a privilege to introduce Paul Ainsworth, Managing Partner of Lincoln Institute to you in this episode - one that speaks deeply to the heart of leadership, resilience, and the power of community.  Over 15 years, and after a decorated career in the Australian Army, Paul has helped shape leaders in the veterinary and agricultural industries. A graduate of the Australian Defence Force Academy and the Royal Military College Duntroon, Paul served as an Infantry Officer with international deployments across five foreign countries, culminating in a role as a military observer in the Middle East.   His leadership journey continued beyond the Army, first as the inaugural Director of ALDI Foods in Australia and then, as CEO and Board Chairman of Australia's fastest-growing company in the energy sector.   Now, as the Founding Principal of the Lincoln Institute, Paul is dedicated to equipping veterinary and agricultural professionals with the leadership, management, and communication skills they need to thrive.   Leadership is more than just making decisions. It's about connection. It's about knowing when to step forward and when to step back. It's about building a team that isn't just technically strong but also aligned, empowered, and accountable.  Here Are Some of The Key Leadership Lessons from This Episode:  How self-aware are you as a leader? How you think you come across isn't always how you do. Where might there be a gap between your intent and your impact?    Who's in your corner? Isolation is the enemy—whether you're a vet, a farmer, or a business owner. Who do you lean on? How are you building a strong support network?    Are you pushing yourself and your team to grow? Real learning happens outside the comfort zone. Where are you playing it too safe?    Are you empowering or micromanaging? Move from telling to coaching. Teach the standard, then trust your people to own it.    Do your people know what's expected—before there's a problem? The best way to avoid hard conversations is to set clear expectations from the start.     Are you creating clarity or confusion? Strong teams don't need coddling—they need to know where they stand, what success looks like, and how to get there.  We are delighted that our FOA Platinum Mastermind & Alumni Members have access to the Lincoln Institute Emerging Leaders Programs. For more information about FOA's programs and our connection with Lincoln, book a Complimentary Coaching Call here.  Paul and his team at Lincoln Institute have been working alongside farm owners, veterinarians, and business leaders for years—helping them not just lead, but lead well.   This is a conversation about what really makes a difference in leadership—the moments that test us, the decisions that define us.  A sincere thanks to Paul for joining us in this conversation. Your knowledge, wisdom and insights are so valuable and transferrable.     Sincerely,     Jeremy Hutchings and The Farm Owners Academy Team    

I was pleased to be joined by the illustrious Dr. Peter Linneman to get his thoughts on the economy, tariffs and the industrial real estate market!In the interview Dr. Peter Linneman shares his perspective on current events in the industrial real estate market, emphasizing the importance of cutting through the noise to focus on fundamental economic indicators such as job growth, GDP trends, and capital flows. He uses an analogy of trying to predict the Super Bowl winner 10 years from now to illustrate the futility of long-term market forecasts based on short-term events. Linneman discusses the state of various real estate sectors, noting that office spaces have bottomed out and are starting to recover, while industrial warehouses, particularly big-box facilities, have experienced overbuilding but are expected to absorb excess supply due to steady demand growth. He also addresses reshoring and manufacturing, stating it will remain limited due to higher labor costs in the U.S., and emphasizes America's economic strength due to robust capital markets and innovation. Linneman remains optimistic about the resilience and long-term strength of the U.S. economy despite ongoing challenges.About Dr. Linneman: For nearly 45 years, Dr. Peter Linneman's unique blend of scholarly rigor and practical business insight has won him accolades from around the world, including PREA's prestigious Graaskamp Award for Real Estate Research, Wharton's Zell-Lurie Real Estate Center's Lifetime Achievement Award, Realty Stock Magazine's Special Achievement Award, being named "One of the 25 Most Influential People in Real Estate" by Realtor Magazine and inclusion in The New York Observer's "100 Most Powerful People in New York Real Estate".After receiving both his Masters and Doctorate in Economics under the tutelage of Nobel Prize winners Milton Friedman, Gary Becker, George Stigler, Ted Schultz and Jim Heckman, Peter had a distinguished academic career at both The University of Chicago and the Wharton School of Business at the University of Pennsylvania.

During this time, he was co-editor of The Wharton Real Estate Review. He has published over 100 scholarly articles, eight editions of the acclaimed book Real Estate Finance and Investments: Risks and Opportunities, and the widely read Linneman Letter quarterly report. He is also the co-creator of the popular, and highly regarded, Real Estate Finance and Investment Certification course, REFAI. Most recently, he co-authored (with Dr. Michael Roizen and Albert Ratner) the best-selling book "The Great Age Reboot: Cracking the Longevity Code for a Younger Tomorrow."Peter's long and ongoing business career is highlighted by his roles as Founding Principal of Linneman Associates, LLC, a leading real estate advisory firm, and its affiliates. For more than 40 years, he has advised leading corporations and served on over 20 public and private boards, including serving as Chairman of Rockefeller Center Properties, where he led the successful restructuring and sale of Rockefeller Center in the mid-1990s.Although retired from Wharton's faculty, Dr. Linneman continues his commitment to education through his SAM Elimu educational charity for orphans and children of extreme poverty in rural Kenya.

How do you prep your business to be growth-ready? What are the key factors you must consider when adapting your business model and processes and hiring the right people when building your business? What would be the biggest challenge when scaling your recruitment business?   We had Amanda Brandenburg as a guest three years ago to share her winning formula for growing her firm to $2M in three years. This time, you'll hear a realistic and relatable story of how Amanda has grown her practice from a small team of three to a growing team of six.   Amanda Brandenburg is the Founding Principal at OpusLex Partners, a legal recruiting boutique servicing law firms and corporate legal departments throughout the country. For over a decade, she was a top producer at two of the country's largest legal staffing firms, where she provided interim solutions and direct-hire placements for law firms and corporations within the continental U.S.   Episode Outline and Highlights   [02:27] What is new for Amanda and her team in the last three years? [08:10] How OpusLex enhanced its business model to align with EOS. [16:30] What processes have been working well with Amanda's team? [21:47] The practical applications of E-Myth. [27:54] Discussion on things that Amanda and her team are most proud of. [34:40] Learning to grow the team and hire the right people. [42:22] Effective collaboration tools and tech stack. [50:47] Why should working from home be balanced with working together physically? [53:07] Amanda shares what could be the biggest challenge when upscaling your team.   Systems and Process for Upscaling Your Recruitment Firm   Since we last had Amanda as a guest, she has doubled her team to six. She has adapted his business model to align with the EOS - Entrepreneurial Operating System for Businesses. She shared some of the highlights and changes in how she runs things differently. To adapt her business to EOS (Entrepreneurial Operating System), Amanda has been implementing several key changes:   Formalized Planning and Goal Setting: She's following EOS's structured annual planning, setting a clear mission, vision, and values, and assigning "rocks" (specific goals) to both the company and individual team members. Shift from Traditional to Team-Based Roles: Amanda moved from a traditional "full desk" model (where each person handled all aspects of recruitment) to segmented roles. This structure now includes designated roles for business development, recruiting, sourcing, and administrative support, allowing each team member to specialize and master their area. Client Engagement and Differentiated Service: They established a high-touch approach to client relationships by requiring direct conversations with clients before working on any job order, enhancing service depth and client understanding. Enhanced Communication and Automation: Amanda addressed the complexity of coordinating multiple specialized roles by setting up communication workflows using tools like Monday.com and integrating them with Slack for task updates and real-time notifications, which minimized the risk of inefficiencies. Systematized Processes for Consistency: Amanda implemented process templates in Crelate for both candidate and job intake to ensure consistency and efficiency. This provides essential information gathered upfront, reducing repetitive follow-ups and training time for new hires.   These adjustments reflect Amanda's commitment to EOS principles, enhancing her team's efficiency, communication, and service consistency as they scale.   Critical Elements When Hiring to Upscale Your Team   When growing your recruitment business, hiring the right person to fill critical roles can be challenging. Do you go for a full 360-degree or 180-degree model? I wanted to pick Amanda's brain about her learnings as she started to hire and grow her team.    Amanda prioritizes understanding how a potential team member aligns with their values. “I think going back to those core values in terms of some of our core values, intellectual curiosity, earnestness, relationships first. And so really trying to stay quality over quantity, really trying to imbue those values throughout our hiring process.”   Rather than adhering to a rigid “full desk” model, she has implemented a flexible, team-based structure that allows employees to specialize and focus on specific roles, attracting diverse skill sets and reducing turnover by placing people where they can excel. Her model also enables creating specialized, replicable teams that can focus on distinct practice areas or client needs, such as intellectual property law or retained searches, allowing team members to build practices around their interests and expertise. Additionally, Amanda's focus on transparent, day-to-day communication enhances team alignment, with updates to revenue and compensation models supporting this collaborative framework. She shared the tech stack they use to collaborate effectively and consistently.   What is the Biggest Challenge In Growing Your Recruitment Business?   What will be the biggest challenge if you set your business up for scale? For Amanda, “I think giving new ideas and systems time to work is challenging. And not having. Or you know, and also like giving myself some grace.”   Amanda's greatest challenge in building her business is balancing the patience to allow new ideas and systems time to prove their effectiveness with the need to make strategic adjustments if things aren't working. She acknowledges that this uncertainty—knowing when to persist and when to pivot—can be especially difficult. To overcome this, we acknowledge the importance of resilience and an unwavering commitment to the long-term goal, alongside the willingness to assess whether issues stem from the process, the people involved, or just the natural time required for new initiatives to take hold. Cultivating patience and maintaining a mindset focused on progress over perfection are key practices she uses to navigate the uncertainty and keep pushing forward.   Amanda Brandenburg Bio and Contact Info   In 2018, Amanda founded OpusLex Partners to bring a hands-on, customized, and personalized approach back to legal recruiting. At OpusLex, which translates to “legal body of work,” our body of work includes finding the very best for every search.   Amanda is passionate about her work and enjoys the challenges and competitive nature of the business. When she's not sourcing top legal talent for her clients, you can find her spending time with her husband, their three children, and two rescue dogs at home in Atlanta. She is a graduate of the University of Georgia.   Amanda on LinkedIn Opus Lex Partners website link Opus Lex on Facebook Opus Lex on Instagram   People and Resources Mentioned   Traction: Get A Grip On Your Business, by Gino Wickman Monday.com Crelate The E-Myth Revisited: Why Most Small Businesses Don't Work and What to Do About It by Michael Gerber Asana Zapier Leopard Solutions Ring Central Allan Fisher on LinkedIn   Related Podcast You Might Enjoy   TRR#108 The Winning Formula: How to Grow a Recruiting Firm to $2 Million in 3 Years   Connect with Mark Whitby Get your FREE 30-minute strategy call Mark on LinkedIn Mark on Twitter: @MarkWhitby Mark on Facebook Mark on Instagram: @RecruitmentCoach   Subscribe to The Resilient Recruiter If you've been enjoying the podcast, please take two minutes to leave a review.

For new parents and early years educators, there's a wealth of guidance and support for how to understand what's happening for our babies and toddlers, but when it comes to the stories we tell about adolescence, an equally important period of significant change, sometimes it's more just get your head down and get through it! As millions of young people make the big transition to Middle School, I was very curious to learn from one of the real experts, not only of the patterns of change and development at this time, but also of how to create educational environments that really take these young people seriously!  Chris Balme is an education leader, writer, and school founder, passionate about helping young people discover more of their human potential.

Episode 061: Wealth creators understand that financial planning isn't solely about maximizing returns. It's also about building a lasting legacy. By involving the next generation in family wealth discussions, advisors can help beneficiaries develop a solid financial understanding. This ensures a smoother wealth transfer and empowers future generations to manage their financial affairs effectively.  In this episode, Kyle talks with Craig Robson, Founding Principal and Managing Director at Regent Peak Wealth Advisors. In his role, Craig sets the firm's overall vision and strategy. The creation of Regent Peak Wealth Advisors is a direct result of Craig's desire to provide all relationships with objective advice free from the conflicts of interest that might come from large institutions. Craig and Kyle break down what financial planning for wealth creators looks like. They discuss the importance of using a tech stack that best suits the firm's needs rather than the one-size-fits-all approach, the flexibility of being an independent advisor, and Craig's unique approach to solving complex financial scenarios for wealth creators and their successors. In this episode: [01:24] - Craig's hockey story [02:56] - Craig's money moment [08:56] - Why Craig left one of the world's largest wirehouses [15:06] - Why Craig chooses to serve wealth creators [17:32] - How Craig's consulting experience has helped him to grow his company [22:01] - Craig's thoughts on being a fiduciary [26:54] - Why Craig is passionate about helping the next generation of investors [31:28] - How Craig succeeds in managing generational wealth [36:21] - Craig's strategy for growing organically [42:21] - Craig's Milemarker Minute Key Takeaways Choosing technology solutions that best fit the firm's needs, rather than being restricted by a one-size-fits-all approach, differentiates independent advisors from those tied to larger firms. Involving the next generation in family wealth discussions ensures a smooth and sustainable wealth transfer and can guard against common pitfalls. A successful financial advisory practice goes beyond asset management, incorporating life coaching and consulting services to provide holistic support to clients.

Two weeks ago, I sent my first child off to college.To say it's been an adjustment is an understatement. I didn't realize how deeply I would grieve not picking up his cheese wrappers, and smelly soccer cleats, or giving him a nightly hug. The silence at home is unnerving – I miss hearing him shout, “Mom, are you home?” and the chaos of soccer boys rummaging through the kitchen. And the bodily heartache around the passing of time or that our family of four is now a family of three.This transition has given me time to reflect on my immense gratitude for all those who have supported my son, Tommy, through his journey—his coaches, teachers, and school administrators. They've taught him about respect, hard work, curiosity, teamwork, and most importantly, love. Tommy would not be the person he is today without their support.That's why this week's Cracking Open podcast guest, Rashid Davis, holds a special place in my heart. Rashid is the founding principal of Pathways in Technology Early High School (P-TECH) and embodies the power of education and love. "We only have a short shelf life, a moment to make an impact. I was raised in the poorest district in the Bronx, so I saw inequities, but I saw love and understanding, so I lead with love.” ~ Rashid DavisRashid has dedicated his life to improving education and uplifting humanity. P-TECH, a groundbreaking model that spans grades 9-14, provides a pathway from high school to college and a career in industry. The first P-TECH school in Brooklyn partners with New York City College of Technology and IBM. In 2013, P-TECH was highlighted by President Obama in the State of the Union and received a visit from him in October of that year. As of August 2021, P-TECH has expanded to 28 countries with over 200 school and college partners and more than 600 industry partners.In 2016, Rashid was honored as a Legendary School Leader by the Black Caucus of CSA and Administrators and received proclamations from the City Council of New York, the State Assembly, and various Senate Districts. He was also named to City and State's 2016 “Brooklyn Borough 50,” recognizing influential leaders in Brooklyn.In this episode, Rashid shares his journey from growing up in the Bronx with a deep passion for education to obtaining multiple master's degrees and dedicating his career to school development. He shares his invaluable wisdom, inspiring story, and open-hearted approach. Rashid imparts a powerful lesson: If you can open your heart and mind, you will see that everything is education. He emphasizes: “Love people the way that they know and experience love. And so, it really becomes a microcosm of society. And meet people where they are. And when I say love, it's not always the love that feels good, sometimes you have to do things for people to protect them.”As we kick off a new back-to-school season, Rashid helps remind us of the importance of teachers and educators. I hold deep gratitude for individuals like Rashid who have played such a pivotal and positive role in the educational and growth journeys of so many children, including my son.Love,MollyLearn more about P-Tech hereConnect with Rashid Davis on LinkedInInterested in a VIP Coaching Day with Molly?Email Molly for more details!Follow Molly on Instagram and Facebook

As the founding principal of Sweeney Architecture, Tim Sweeney is driven by a passion for reversing climate change by revolutionizing the way we build homes, businesses, and structures by aligning with the UN's Sustainable Development Goals. Tim sheds light on the staggering fact that buildings in the US are responsible for 39% of all emissions. His solution aims to significantly reduce this impact by addressing construction and material production processes. One thing we love about Tim's story is that even after a long and satisfying career, he is willing to go all in on building a company with a product he believes in, proving there is no age limit on being a disruptive CEO. Here are highlights of our conversation: -Innovative Solution: Tim introduces a groundbreaking patent-pending building system that combines the energy-efficient passive house design with panels made of magnesium oxide. This fusion creates an unprecedented level of sustainability. -Career Evolution:Tim's journey highlights the diverse experiences of his career that have led to the creation of his unique and sustainable architectural solutions. -Patent Process: Tim shares insights into the patenting process, emphasizing the simplicity of securing a provisional patent and the ongoing efforts to improve and finalize the patent. He hints at future developments that could make their approach carbon-negative. -Versatile Applications: The patented system is adaptable to various construction needs, from single-family homes to multi-family buildings and commercial structures. Tim envisions a broad impact across different scales and types of construction. -Strategic Growth: Sweeney Architecture's growth strategy involves a multi-faceted approach. Tim discusses the importance of strategic partnerships, finding responsible and reliable collaborators, securing project-based funding, and potentially franchising the technology to share its benefits globally. Tim is both a Certified Passive House Designer and tradesperson, as well as is highly experienced in designing, detailing, and building panelized solutions that offer numerous benefits over conventional design and construction. As a result of his unique capabilities, Tim's clients can build faster, less expensively, and with higher quality and better results, as only a handful of professionals in North America are qualified to do. With over 40 years of design and construction experience, Certification as a Cohousing Facilitator, and a planner that develops superior consensus and pathways using the Design Down Process, Tim's clients are afforded much greater opportunities to achieve their desires, needs, and more.

In this episode of the Tech Talks Daily Podcast, I sit down with Roshmond "Sum" Patten, the innovative Creative Director at GLOW, to delve into a topic that is becoming increasingly crucial in the creative industry: the intersection of Artificial Intelligence and creativity. Sum, a specialist in AI with a rich background in music, copywriting, and creative direction, brings a unique perspective to this discussion. Sum's journey is as diverse as it is impressive. He has worked with tech giants like Microsoft, Fox, and Disney in research and community management, and his expertise extends to music streaming, where he trained music discovery algorithms for some of today's biggest platforms. His creative flair is not just confined to technology; he's also a celebrated musician and a two-time Independent Music Award nominee, featuring his work in major TV shows and video games.

Beyond his professional accolades, Sum is also an activist, serving as Creative Director in Residence for the Stop LAPD Spying Coalition since 2020. His work in this area has helped to raise awareness about the expanding police surveillance state and the potential harms of artificial intelligence in predictive policing.
