Send us a textUnleashing Sales Potential: The Behavioral Edge with Mike Crotta & Geoff Miller (Part 2)In this powerful follow-up episode of "The Selling Podcast," we once again welcome insights from former professional baseball player Mike Crotta and Geoff Miller, author of "Intangibles," as we delve deeper into the psychological and behavioral aspects of sales success. Building upon our previous discussion on mental toughness, we explore how understanding and leveraging behavioral assessments can unlock untapped potential and drive winning performance in sales teams.Mike and Geoff share their expertise on how to identify and match potential hires and existing team members to roles where their natural behavioral tendencies will thrive. They discuss the importance of recognizing individual strengths and tailoring coaching and development strategies accordingly. This moves beyond simply looking at past performance and focuses on inherent traits that predict future success in specific sales functions.We then shift our focus to the crucial distinction between playing to win versus playing for fun. Drawing parallels from the competitive world of professional sports, Mike and Geoff emphasize the importance of a results-oriented mindset in sales. While enjoyment is valuable, the ultimate goal is to achieve and exceed targets. We explore how to cultivate a winning mentality within sales teams and align individual efforts with overarching business objectives.The conversation then turns to the challenges of overthinking and getting "stuck in your head." Mike and Geoff highlight that when facing pressure or complex situations, it's essential to take a step back and focus on the long-term perspective. By visualizing the ultimate goals and understanding that short-term anxieties are often transient, sales professionals can regain clarity and make more strategic decisions.A key element for effective team management and individual performance is the explicit expression of expectations. Mike and Geoff underscore the importance of clearly articulating what is required of each team member, leaving no room for ambiguity. Once expectations are clearly understood, holding individuals accountable for their performance becomes a fair and necessary step in driving results and fostering a culture of responsibility.Finally, we address the common pitfall of overanalyzing the "right" way to do things. Mike and Geoff explain that excessive focus on theoretical perfection can often paralyze individuals and hinder their ability to execute the fundamental aspects of their roles effectively. The key lies in understanding the core principles of sales and then allowing individual strengths and styles to flourish within that framework.Throughout the episode, Mike and Geoff emphasize the importance of maintaining a balanced drive – a focused determination to succeed without succumbing to burnout or neglecting other crucial aspects of professional and personal well-being. This episode provides actionable strategies for sales leaders and individual contributors alike to leverage behavioral insights, cultivate a winning mindset, and optimize performance for long-term success.Scott SchlofmanMike Williams - Cell 801-635-7773 #sales #podcast #customerfirst #relationships #success #pipeline #funnel #sales success #selling #salescoach

Send us a textIn this powerful episode of "The Selling Podcast," Mike and Scott dive deep into the critical role of mental toughness in achieving sales success. We're thrilled to welcome two exceptional guests: Mike Crotta, a former professional baseball player with the Pittsburgh Pirates, and Geoff Miller, the acclaimed author of "Intangibles," a book that breaks down the mental game in baseball and beyond. Together, we draw direct parallels between the mental fortitude required in professional sports and the resilience needed to thrive in the demanding world of sales.Mike shares his firsthand experiences navigating the pressures of professional baseball, highlighting the mental strategies he employed to stay focused, overcome setbacks, and maintain a winning mindset. Geoff, drawing from his expertise in the "intangibles" of athletic performance, unpacks key mental skills such as focus, composure, and the ability to bounce back from adversity.We then bridge these insights directly to the sales arena, exploring how sales professionals can cultivate similar mental toughness to:Handle Rejection: Learn techniques to view rejection as a learning opportunity rather than a personal failure, building resilience and preventing discouragement.Maintain Focus: Discover strategies to stay present and laser-focused on the task at hand, especially amidst distractions and long sales cycles.Manage Pressure: Understand how to perform effectively under pressure, whether it's facing a tight deadline or a high-stakes negotiation.Build Confidence: Explore methods for cultivating unwavering self-belief and maintaining a positive attitude, even during challenging periods.Stay Persistent: Learn how to develop the mental stamina to consistently follow up and persevere in the face of obstacles.Mike and Geoff provide actionable strategies and real-world examples, drawing from their experiences in high-pressure environments, to equip sales professionals with the mental tools needed to stay in the game, overcome challenges, and ultimately achieve peak performance. This episode is a masterclass in developing the mental edge that separates good salespeople from the truly great.Scott SchlofmanMike Williams - Cell 801-635-7773 #sales #podcast #customerfirst #relationships #success #pipeline #funnel #sales success #selling #salescoach

In this edition of The Management Brief, Mark Reich sits down with Geoff Miller, CEO of Grand Rapids Chair, to discuss his company's lean transformation journey. Geoff shares how the adoption of hoshin kanri and A3 problem-solving has helped the company maintain strategic focus and build organizational capability. Geoff offers a candid reflection on his leadership transformation, underscoring the importance of perseverance and continuous learning, even in the face of significant disruption.  Key takeaways include: Hoshin Kanri enabled Grand Rapids Chair to build stability in critical daily management measures like safety, quality, and reliability. The catchball process for cascading strategic goals fostered alignment and buy-in across the management team. A3 problem-solving empowered employees across departments to tackle large, complex challenges and drive meaningful change. Sustaining a lean transformation requires personal commitment from leadership to model the problem-solving mindset and tools. Developing human capability in problem-solving is essential for realizing the full benefits of lean.

Given the choice Peter Morgan would rather be spending time with his horses than standing around with a mobile phone. He very kindly made an exception for us last week, and we've been able to capture some of his recollections of a life with horses. Peter talks firstly about his talented galloper Burrandana whose first up win at Gundagai recently proved he's on track for a TAB Highway mission. The veteran trainer talks of Burrandana's troublesome feet. Peter says he actually bred the horse. He looks back on Burrandana's form line with special mention of the Wagga win that was taken off him. A substance used on another horse in the stable showed up in Burrandana's post race swab. Pete says a very hefty fine ensued. The trainer talks of Burrandana's five TAB Highway attempts. He hasn't been able to win one yet, but he's knocking on the door. Peter speaks of Burrandana's owners, long time clients David Lloyd and Geoff Miller. He mentions another recent winner from the stable in Unique Prince who's due back in work following a break. Peter looks back on early days in Melbourne under the tutelage of his grandfather Frank Kernaghan. He says Frank was a skilful trainer who was rarely without a handy horse. He had one very talented hurdler. He says one piece of advice offered by his grandfather has remained with him over half a century. Peter was apprenticed to Frank Kernaghan and had a short stint as a jockey. He rates his talents in the saddle. He talks of the legendary jockeys he got to know in the 1960's. He says one of them took an interest in his progress. During his apprenticeship at Flemington Peter got to know some famous trainers. He makes mention of a couple. Peter says he eventually borrowed boxes from his grandfather to get his own training career under way. He runs through a list of horses who helped to get him up and running as a professional trainer. Peter moved to Albury in 1974 and brought with him a promising apprentice jockey. The trainer acknowledges other talented jockeys who've given him good service since moving to the Riverina. Peter says the art of horse training has changed dramatically in recent times. He talks of the accessibility of racetracks from his Wagga base. Peter mentions some of the trainers he's most admired. In naming the best horse he's seen in six decades, the veteran plumps unequivocally for Tobin Bronze. We share a few memories of the great horse. The laconic trainer doesn't waste words in taking us back over his journey in racing.

In late spring, coyote pups spend their first few weeks of life hunkered in dens — some of which are tucked in Minnesota's various urban parks. And the pups are just about to make moves - leaving the den with their parents for a new home base. A research team based at the University of Minnesota is monitoring some of these animals to learn more about how coyotes, foxes and humans interact in the Twin Cities. Geoff Miller has been working on this project as a Ph.D. candidate since it began about four years ago. MPR News host Cathy Wurzer spoke with Miller about what he's learned so far. Use the audio player above to listen to the full conversation.  Subscribe to the Minnesota Now podcast on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Spotify or wherever you get your podcasts.    We attempt to make transcripts for Minnesota Now available the next business day after a broadcast. When ready they will appear here.

RadioRotary interviews Geoff Miller, Chair of the Steering Committee for the Reher Center for Immigrant Culture and History, a project of the Jewish Federation of Ulster County. The Center is a museum celebrating all the immigrants who settled the region, not just the Jews, and occupies a 19th-century Jewish bakery that primarily served the immigrants who streamed into America throughout the 19th and early 20th centuries. The museum aims to depict immigrant life of that period. The Reher Center, at 99-101 Broadway in the Historic Roundout waterfront of Kingston, New York, is located in the part of Kingston that was originally a small community on the Hudson, while Kingston itself occupied the bluff above the river. The Center is a work in progress, with the museum only open a few hours a week at present. Tours require special arrangements.

I have worked with and for Geoff Miller for a period of time, primarily during his successful tenure as CEO of GLI Finance, a London listed fintech company. This is a conversation I've had with him now a while back, focused on corporate governance and other issues that we both care about deeply. Geoff Miller now is an investor in and consultant to a variety of principally early stage technology and finance companies, a Director of various businesses across a number of sectors globally drawing on his 20 years of listed company Board experience and a mentor to a variety of entrepreneurs. At the heart of his approach to business are good corporate governance, equality and diversity. He does not believe that these are words to be thrown around but rather they are fundamental to the core of any great organisation. Where a company does not agree with this, he will not work with them. Outside of his work with corporates he is managing the creation of a food forest in Guernsey and he is involved in encouraging the introduction of more permaculture principles to the unique and precious environment on the island.

Actress and author When Kathryn Leigh Scott's husband was diagnosed with progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), a neurological disease for which there is (so far) no cure, it was a devastating time for both of them, not least because so little is known about the cause or treatment of a disease that affects some 20,000 Americans, a number similar to that of Lou Gehrig’s disease (ALS). Last Dance at the Savoy is both a personal story about Scott's husband, Geoff Miller, the founding editor of Los Angeles magazine, who lived life fully despite having a terminal illness, and a sharing of her insights on dealing with the day-to-day issues of caring for someone with a progressive neurological condition. Scott "often yearned for someone to figuratively take my hand and walk with me through the difficult times; I hope through this book I can reach out to you with encouragement and practical advice."

Geoffrey Miller studies the evolutionary psychology of sex and since sex is the cornerstone of evolution his work ends up having implications that affect pretty much everything. If you've wondered why women's evolutionary programming makes them spend more time shopping and makes men want to get the heck out of the store as quickly as possible, then, in this podcast, Geoffrey Miller will tell you why. If you've wondered why people buy cars like Hummers when they are so wasteful, it's precisely because being wasteful is the key to attracting a mate…and in this podcast Geoffrey Miller will tell you why. Besides writing an excellent book called Spent about how consumerism taps into evolutionary psychology, Geoffrey Miller co-hosts a podcast with Tucker Max (yes, Tucker Max) called The Mating Grounds where they use the latest evolutionary psychology to help listeners become the men women want. From that podcast, they have now written a book called Mate. Whether you're looking to understand consumerism, mating or some other aspect of why we do what we do then Geoffrey Miller is one of the best resources on the planet.

In this Q&A episode, Tucker Max, Nils Parker, and Dr. Geoff Miller explain the internal worries (How am I doing? Does she like me?) that many guys have on first dates and how to replace those thoughts with more effective ones (How can I have fun? What is interesting about her?). Also, check out the psychology of choking in our Choke Book Notes or buy the book here.   Also, Tucker, Charlie, and Nils have spent the last two months answering this question on the Helping Joe series. It’s one of Joe’s biggest problems. Listen to Episode 4 and Episode 5 especially.  This episode is sponsored by Dude Wipes, the first flushable wipes for men.

In this Q&A episode, Tucker Max, Nils Parker, and Dr. Geoff Miller explain that alcohol lowers your inhibitions and the worries about what others will think or how you will look, which all get in the way of being funny. There may be a deeper problem with your social skills, confidence, or shame. These can all be fixed (check out our other podcasts for more in depth advice).

In this Q&A episode, Tucker Max, Nils Parker, and Dr. Geoff Miller break apart this question, the details he gave, and the assumptions he is making. They explain how if you see a guy who is to be subservient to or "pussy whipped" by his girlfriend or wife, you are only looking at a small part of their relationship and making assumptions based just on that. It's unlikely that you know their entire relationship history and all the dynamics going on.  Sometimes, a woman is just awful or the man has given up too much control and dominance in a relationship (No More Mr. Nice guy is a great analysis of this problem). But ask yourself, "Why is this happening in the first place and why is he still with her?" Staying in that relationship is a choice that as a man you have to take responsibility for. 

If you live in a very racist state (Arizona) or city (Boston) move!  In this Q&A Tucker Max, Dr. Geoff Miller, and Nils Parker explain how sometimes the problem is 100% your mating market and not you. If that’s the case and you want to be successful with women, you need to leave.

Both men and woman can have difficulty realizing they are more attractive after a big positive change like losing weight. In this Q&A Tucker Max, Dr. Geoff Miller, and Nils Parker talk about how to accept and believe you that you are more attractive by getting feedback from women, starting small with exposure therapy, and testing your mating market. 

In modern society, there is little threat of violence day-to-day. So how you do you display the Defender part of the Tender Defender model to women? In this Q&A Tucker Max, Dr. Geoff Miller, and Nils Parker break down a big assumption of being a Defender (It’s not all about violence.) and explain the many ways you can be a Defender without fighting. A better way to look at it is being an Effective Provider can solve her problems.   

This listener called in from Boston, which is a terrible city full of awful people. We've had multiple questions about how to handle assholes from there. We decided to answer one of them and rip on Boston in general. In this Q&A, Tucker Max, Dr. Geoff Miller, and Nils Parker explain how male cockblockers are usually not trying to stop you from getting the girl. They are instead asserting their status or dominance by making fun of you. If your friends are doing this, you have shitty friends and need to make new ones. They also give exact comebacks and conversation scripts you can use to deal with these douchebags. 

When a woman you are sleeping with wants an exclusive long-term relationship (boyfriend), but you are not ready to give that to her, it's best to be upfront and honest about it. Tucker Max was terrible at this when he was younger, and it led to relationship disasters. In this Q&A episode, Tucker Max, Nils Parker, and Dr. Geoff Miller explain how it's totally cool not to want to commit long-term to a woman you are having sex with, but it's important to have a clear conversation with her about that. They include how to bring this up and a few conversation scripts to use. 

This is a great question, but the way this young caller asks it and the background he gives us, which is great by the way because it helps us figure out what's really going on, shows that there are fundamental problems with his mindset, strategy, tactics, etc. He has gotten a ton of terrible advice and ideas from pickup artist nonsense. Tucker Max, Dr. Geoff Miller, and Nils Parker explain the four most common reasons why girls flake, cancel, or don't show up to a date; why this will (and should) happen a certain percentage of times, and why looking at it as "flaking" and blaming the woman is the wrong mindset.     They also give some harsh but much needed advice on throwing out your pickup ebooks and bootcamp binders. For more on how pua scams work and why their tactics are terrible for long-term success, listen to this episode about the pua scene. 

This Q&A is for men who are are worried about going bald or gray and losing hair. There are two key takeaways: great hair doesn't matter as much as you think and the simple solution to be more attractive it to shave your head.   Tucker Max, Dr. Geoff Miller, and Nils Parker talk about how there's not much you can do to prevent hair loss, but that's OK because women don't really care. Dr. Miller mentions it's not even in the top 30 most important things that women want. However, awful hair like a comb-over or bad hair piece can lower your mate value.    And think about it from an evolutionary perspective: If women were turned off by baldness, we would have evolved not to get bald because those men would not have mated. The fact that we evolved this way means baldness doesn't matter much to women. Your bald ancestors still got laid. 

Women who work are usually paid to be nice to you, especially bartenders and waitresses. If you like her, there are low risk ways to see if she's interested. In this episode, Tucker Max, Nils Parker, and Dr. Geoff Miller talk about how to gather information ( Does she have a boyfriend? ), talk to her like a friend, and ask her out in an easy way (think social, not 1:1) so you don't creep out a woman who is 'trapped' at work. Nils, who was a bartender in his 20s, also gives advice on how to tell when a bartender or waitress is into you. Hint: 90% of the time, she's flirting with your wallet, not you. That's her job, dude.

Humor is very attractive and displays many traits like intelligence, social proof, mental health. Not everyone can be a comedian, but you can go out with good friends, make fun of eachother, and bring women into the fun. In this Q&A, Nils Parker, Tucker Max, and Dr. Geoff Miller explain the basics and low risk ways to use humor, be funny, and tease: Making fun of yourself and your friends is attractive Even having just one hilarious good friend is enough to make you better. How to tease women without going too far.  Why punching up is better than punching down.   How to make funny observations of other odd people around you. And why joke quality is better than joke quantity.

Find out what women really want (it's science!)

It seems to be a question men have asked themselves and have been trying to answer for centuries. If you're tired of wondering and you want actual answers to help you better understand, connect and have quality relationships with women then have a listen to today's show. Our guest is Dr. Geoff Miller, is evolutionary psychologist at the University of New Mexico-Albuquerque and author of several books including The Mating Mind. Presently he is teaming up with Tucker Max to produce podcast episodes for Mating Grounds and a book on the same subject: understanding what women want and how to give it to them. Listen in for details on all of that and so much more on the 334th episode of The Art of Charm. More About This Show: To understand what Dr. Miller shares in today's episode it's helpful to understand his background and his line of studies. He is an evolutionary psychologist which means he spends his time understanding topics like human sexuality, mate choice, and human emotions to name a few. He says he has long been fascinated by women's psychology and why women chose the men they do and the links those choices have to our history as humans. And one common thread he has found is that attraction transcends all other boundaries, certain ways of attracting a mate are not exclusive to particular cultures and countries. It is primal and instinctive within humans. Attraction doesn't have a secret language, anyone can learn it and use it wherever they live. We get into several useful applications of mating behavior in this episode, the first of which is the body types women are most attracted to. Dr. Miller says women in general find tall and lean men most attractive, they want the Olympic swimmer-type look. They prefer men who look capable and athletic, but still have some body fat so long as it's not abdominal fat which women are turned off by. So why does it seem like women like the super-buff gym rats? During their most fertile times of the month women find more masculine traits attractive, like big muscles. You can use this to your advantage if you aren't a big muscle guy. If a girl says no when you ask her out one week, try again the next week. It could just be where she is in her cycle. Another fascinating topic we dive into is how to know when a woman is at her most fertile. It seems men know this on a subconscious level, Dr. Miller gives us an example of a study done that showed women who were professional lap dancers made more money during their peak ovulation times (ie their most fertile time of the month) then they did at another time of the month. But if the woman you have your eye on isn't a lap dancer, there are other cues you can look for. You'll need to know her a bit for this but watch how she dresses. It's been scientifically shown that women who are closest to their peak fertile times will dress more provocatively, wear red, wear lipstick or more makeup than usual and will wear more jewelry than usual. Sort of "peacocking" female-style that seems to happen about 10-14 days into her cycle. Dr. Geoff also explains a woman's cycle and the time of the month when she will generally be most fertile. He gives us reasons why we as men need to know about hormonal birth control and how it impacts a woman's choice in a man - there is scientific evidence that shows women on hormonal birth control choose different man than if they are not using hormones. An important lesson to know whether you're dating or in a relationship. He also gives us tips on how to attract women whether we're wealthy or poor, the important role language plays in dating and mating, and what we should be focusing on to attract quality women (and it's not more time in the gym!).
