Team building is about more than selecting the right people for the right roles. We, as leaders, also need to bring people together intentionally, facilitate rapport building, and play a role in helping develop the connections between staff from “just coworkers” to “someone they'd go to batt for.” One of the quickest shortcuts we've found in the Breakthrough Academy universe to boost TEAM COHESION is service-based activities and trips. Go carts and wing nights are awesome, but if you want to put team bonding on steroids, doing something good for a person, a family, or a community is the fastest way to do it. We all have an innately human need to serve others, and these experiences' emotional intensity can help bring down people's walls. Mike Sherbakov, our guest today, is the founder of the Greatness Foundation a non-profit that leads impact initiatives and community projects aligned with the UN's Sustainable Development Goals. He's also a partner in The Veteran Fund venture capital firm that invests in high-growth technology startups led by ex-military founders (how cool is that?)

Join your host Emma and her Clown Barbara talking all things Mastermind Groups.  What is a Mastermind Group and why should we join one?  What can mastermind groups do for your life and business?  Why was Brad running nearly trampled by donkeys on a mastermind group?  How can Barbra set up her own knitting and mediation mastermind group?  Why do mastermind groups work? And much much more.. About Brad Grab a copy of my FREE book here (just pay shipping) http://8minutemastermind.com http://marbles.link/masterminds A bit of background: My quest for learning and connecting began at Binghamton University, where I studied biology and was a member of the crew team. Working as a full-time EMT and bartending at night, I was able to pay my own way through school. 

 After graduating, I didn't get into any of the medical schools I wanted, so I looked for a job in NYC. During the market crash in 2008, I joined a Wall Street Asset Management Firm in NY as a broker trainee and cold caller, while studying at night to get my real estate license. I then joined Bond NY, and my career really took off. Within 2 years, I was the top producing agent in the office, received several promotions, and developed a team of 6 producers.

 Life took a dramatic turn in 2010 when my father passed away. It was during this time that I began to focus on options trading, marketing, and sales. Thanks to networking and an article published in Forbes Magazine, I attracted some amazing mentors, joined multiple mastermind groups, and started several successful companies, such as Hartwood Capital LP, where we worked with private investment clients and experienced returns of 106% in our first year. 

 As my network grew, so did my desire to help others. I started mentoring entrepreneurs and helping them develop. Seeing others grow, thrive, and become successful became my greatest calling and my greatest joy. This resulted in the development of Make More Marbles, a company dedicated to helping entrepreneurs through messaging, mentorship, and masterminds, and Color More Lines, which helps companies with a cause grow on Amazon and beyond. 

I enjoy staying active and have done both marathons and triathlons. I also enjoy supporting veterans and charities, including The Greatness Foundation and The Unstoppable Foundation. 

The five keys to creative collaboration are — vision, trust, delegation, responsibility, and celebration. How can these things impact how business people collaborate effectively? In this week’s episode, let’s talk about the creative collaboration in business with my guest Andrew Gottlieb. Part One of ‘5 Keys to Creative Collaboration in Business with Andrew Gottlieb’ Andrew Gottlieb is the Founder & CEO at No Typical Moments, a highly specialized digital marketing agency that works exclusively with purpose-driven and social impact-focused businesses to advance humanity collectively. He's also the co-author of 'The Two-Week Notice: How to Discover Your Passion, Quit Your Job & Impact Our World' published in May 2015. Written alongside two other young entrepreneurs, the book shares their entrepreneurial journey on how to awaken one's innate passion, committing to the process and finding a tribe that both supports and challenges one to become their greatest version. A California Benefit Corporation and a proud member of the 1% For the Planet, at No Typical Moments, constantly evaluate and measure their revenue contribution to a global network of nonprofits engaged in solving some of the most critical environmental challenges of our time. It's no surprise that their team members are passionate about climate change, personal development, gender equality, and animal welfare, among others. Giving back to the community and supporting local causes has always been Andrew's big passion. NTM donates time, resources, and expertise to several local and national nonprofits. Some of them are Outdoor Outreach, The Greatness Foundation, Haitian Families First, and The Ecology Centre. Outside of work, he enjoys hiking, running, playing soccer and tennis, practicing Muay-Thai, and watching the Pittsburgh Steelers.   “Everyone needs to take that hundred percent responsibility for how they're showing up.” - Rae Irelan (14:34-14:39)   Admittedly, Andrew made some terrible hiring decisions in the past. He didn’t share similar values with them, which resulted in No Typical Moments not growing as it should be. There were a lot of egos involved on both sides. There was a lack of honest and upfront conversations about what they were supposed to be creating together. So, you see how compelling shared vision is. He’s been working with Danny and Brittany for almost seven years now. They have contracts backing up everything they do. But he has a deep level of trust for them that those aren’t even necessary beyond documentation. As the company started growing, he became less involved in every email, every single client phone call, and day-to-day communication. When someone is doing something opposite to being trustworthy, they have a system to manage these hard conversations. It takes trust and setting boundaries to make relationships work. If you’re a business owner or aspiring entrepreneur, I’m sure you love it when someone shares the realness of starting and growing business. Part Two of ‘5 Keys to Creative Collaboration in Business with Andrew Gottlieb According to Andrew, the bottleneck that impacts a lot of entrepreneurs and early-stage companies when they won't delegate is, when the founder and CEO don't want to let go of the control guide. They're not honest enough with their strengths and weaknesses. If you decide to build your own company, that essentially means you're not going to do that skill set in the long term. You have to delegate, and you have to trust your hires to do that good or even better than you actually could. That’s what the delegation stage is about. “There's so much to learn from the painful experiences of other people.” - Andrew Gottlieb (26:54-27:17) When you're in a working environment, everyone needs to take that hundred percent responsibility for showing up. It's important to hold people accountable for what they said they were going to do and the results that they were putting up. He didn't fire people when, unfortunately, they should have been let go for lack of performance. That's a huge pain that he experienced while growing his company. Lastly, don’t forget to celebrate with gratitude and a reward system.  Here's the last piece of advice Andrew can offer: "At the end of the day when someone decides to leave your company, you need to wish them well and exit peacefully. If they were great for your company, write them a letter of recommendation, whatever it is. Just try to end on the best terms possible because you're going to see each other again, and you want that person to carry with them a good memory of how the CEO treated them well.” How to Connect More with Andrew Gottlieb Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AndrewLGottlieb Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/andrewlgottlieb/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/andrewlgottlieb/ Next Steps Are you ready to channel your inner goddess and receive abundance from being uniquely YOU?

This week’s guest, Mike Sherbakov of the Greatness Foundation, calls that feeling “divine discomfort.” And he suggests that instead of suppressing that feeling, take note and ask what you could do to get more in alignment, which requires refining your ability to listen to your body and follow your intuition...and then quitting whatever isn't working for you!
