Podcasts about Hire

In this week's episode of the Do Good to Lead Well podcast, I had the pleasure of speaking with Lindsay Dodd, the CEO of Cashco Financial, for an enlightening conversation about how to build an award-winning culture. He reveals how purpose and profitability can successfully coexist, emphasizing a people-first mindset that champions dignity, trust, and empowerment. His insights showcase how Cashco Financial has consistently earned recognition as one of Alberta's best workplaces for five consecutive years. We explore leadership not as a set of inherent qualities, but as learned behaviors such as courage, confidence, empathy, and resilience, drawing from frameworks that advocate for modeling the way and inspiring a shared vision.Our discussion delves into the true meaning of authentic leadership, defining it as a consistent commitment to building trust by aligning our actions with our values and beliefs. Lindsay illustrates how genuine vulnerability, coupled with an openness to feedback and a commitment to inclusive workplaces, strengthens bonds and fosters collaboration. We explore practical strategies for navigating challenging peer interactions, stressing the importance of curiosity and addressing issues directly yet calmly. Additionally, Lindsay shares CashCo's unique cultural practices, from hiring based on empathy to an “upside-down triangle” leadership model that prioritizes frontline staff, reinforcing values through daily core value stories.As we look to the future, the conversation addresses the complexities of leading in a polarized society and the rapid evolution of artificial intelligence. Lindsay offers advice on finding common ground amidst differing opinions and encourages leaders to engage with new technologies, learning and playing with them to discover new opportunities while managing risks. This episode offers practical wisdom for building successful, values-driven organizations and preparing for tomorrow's challenges.What You'll Learn- Leadership is a learned behavior- How authenticity builds trust- Go beyond superficial values.

If you've ever worked with a coach — spent thousands of dollars, followed every rule, did everything “right” — but still ended up back where you started, this episode will explain exactly why that keeps happening (and how to make sure it never does again).In this episode, we break down what most coaches get completely wrong — and the 10 things you must look for before hiring any coach or joining another program.Because the truth is, it's not your fault the last program didn't work.You don't need “more discipline.” You need the right coach who actually understands the root cause of what's keeping you stuck.These are the filters we use to separate coaches who get real, lasting results from those who run on hype, quick fixes, and surface-level tactics.What we covered in today's episode:- Why most coaches fail their clients (and what they're missing)- The difference between root-cause coaching and surface-level “eat less, move more” advice- How to spot red flags before wasting another dollar- The “sustainability test” every program should pass- Why lasting change requires inner work, not more willpower- The 10-point checklist to find a coach who actually changes your lifeIf you're tired of losing weight, gaining it back, and wondering if you'll ever feel in control again — this episode will show you exactly how to find the last coach you'll ever need.MY RESOURCES & SPECIAL OFFERS:‣ Join Dieting From The Inside Out & get immediate access: https://inquire.hamiltontrained.com/collective‣ To apply for private, 1:1 coaching with Jared DM "Coaching" to 765-308-5751‣ Grab the Food Noise Solution Guide Here: https://inquire.hamiltontrained.com/food-noiseFIND ME ON:‣ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/realjaredhamilton‣ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@JaredHamilton‣ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@realjaredhamilton‣ Email: jared@hamiltontrained.com----© 2025 Jared Hamilton-----

What you'll learn in this episode:How to identify your top three priorities before you start hiringThe right order of leverage—and why hiring too soon can kill your growthWhy belief and consistent lead generation come before building an organizationHow to retain top talent through growth and developmentThe importance of building a “bench” of leaders who can step in when neededWhat it takes to remove yourself from your business (the right way) 

What happens when you realize you've been treated like a task, not a priority—and it finally clicks that you're allowed to want more? This episode is a behind-the-scenes breakdown of what led me to fire my property management company, reclaim the way I run my property rentals, and reflect on how that same misalignment can quietly show up in our own businesses. If your clients are starting to feel like checkboxes or your follow-through has started to slide, this is your gut check. Because being someone's priority starts with making yourself one.

This episode is especially for business owners and consultants, but the themes will resonate with anyone navigating leadership in challenging times. No matter your role, the struggles we face are often more similar than different, and there's always something to learn from the stories of others. Recently, my business coaching clients and entrepreneurial colleagues have been sharing struggles that might feel familiar:  "What sold before is not selling now." "I am ready to make a pivot, but I'm feeling nervous and unsure about how to do so." "With the online space feeling loud and saturated, I'm feeling less confident in making myself more visible." "I need to grow my team, but I'm nervous about finding the right people and/or giving up control." "I'm struggling with boundaries and communication with my team." "I'm overwhelmed and exhausted by my business + the state of the world!" Over my 22 years as a business owner, the state of the world has forced me to reimagine (and sometimes rapidly pivot) my business, my offers, and my team multiple times. After a few moments (or days) of "WTF?! Why is this happening to me?!", I've always been able to find a path forward and often have found a stronger sense of purpose and drive because of this driving mantra: I know what I'm good at. I know I can create incredible outcomes for people. I have proven that I can be endlessly adaptable and resilient in my 49 years on this planet. This time is no different. LFG. In this episode, I'll share 3 steps you can take right now to address these struggles head-on. Because the world being extra loud and extra messy does not diminish the need for your work. In fact, it amplifies it. Interested in becoming a sponsor of the Shameless Mom Academy? Email our sales team at sales@adalystmedia.com.

Cash PT Trends 2025: What We Learned in Dallas + The New Industry Report In this episode, Doc Danny Matta and Yves Gege unpack takeaways from their Dallas live event and preview PT Biz's new Cash PT Industry Report. They cover what's working now across pure cash, hybrid, and out-of-network models; why continuity and small-group training are surging; and how the talent market is shifting as more solo owners choose to join established cash clinics. Quick Ask Help us move toward the mission of adding $1B in cash-based services to our profession: share this episode with a clinician friend or post it to your IG stories and tag Danny—he'll reshare it. Episode Summary From beginners to builders: PT Biz events now draw ~200 owners focused on scaling, not just getting started. No single “right” model: Cash-only, hybrid, out-of-network, Medicare-focused, and gym-like setups can all work—business principles drive success. Continuity is up: Many clinics now get 20–40%+ of monthly visits from recurring performance/wellness work—stabilizing revenue. Small-group training wins: Huge LTV and stick rate; still underused (only ~¼ of clinics are doing it). Talent trend: More solo owners are approaching larger cash clinics for roles with culture, mentorship, and intrapreneurship tracks. Reality check on pay: Compensation must tie to the revenue a provider can generate; entitlement ≠ value creation. Macro shift: Rising deductibles & wellness demand push all clinics to add self-pay services—cash PT is no longer fringe. Live Event Takeaways Owner mindset: Conversations have matured—hiring, leadership, profitability, systems, and scaling to $100k–$200k/month per site. Market fit varies: Geography, payer mix, and demographics dictate whether to stay pure cash, add OON, or blend Medicare. Community compounding: Member-to-member playbooks (what worked, what didn't) are often the most valuable part of events. The Industry Report: What to Watch Continuity growth: Bigger clinics show higher % of recurring visits, needing fewer new evals to fill schedules. Underutilized small groups: High demand among “post-injury but not gym-ready” clients; strong margins and retention. Diversified offers: Performance, strength, and longevity programs de-risk revenue and increase lifetime value. Small-Group Training: Why It Works Checks the boxes: Strength, mobility, accountability, and community—with clinicians nearby if issues arise. Cost-effective for clients: Often similar to PT weekly or personal training—but with better adherence and social glue. Team friendly: Therapists enjoy variety and fewer notes; can be delivered by PTs or trained coaches under clinical oversight. Career Pathways & The “Unemployable” Test Two good options: Go all-in on ownership or join a high-performing cash clinic as an intrapreneur (clinic director, partner track). Value first, then ask: Promotions/partnerships follow demonstrated impact, not tenure. Reputation compounds. Pro Tips You Can Use This Month Launch continuity now: Create 1–2 simple monthly options (e.g., strength + mobility; return-to-sport). Pilot a small group: 4–8 clients, 2x/week, 8 weeks. Price for value, track retention, collect testimonials. Map your model: List your market realities (Medicare, Tricare, local payer rates, boomer density) before choosing cash/hybrid. Hire from the doers: Prioritize applicants who've tried solo—“batteries included,” better respect for business realities. Benchmark & iterate: Compare your prices, packages, and continuity % to the industry report; fix one lever each month. Notable Quotes “There isn't one right model—principles win. Leads in, lifetime value up, recruit well, lead well.” “Continuity compacts the snowball. When 30–40% of your visits are recurring, everything gets easier.” “If you want stability without owning every problem, be an intrapreneur—create value, then opportunities chase you.” Action Items Download the Cash PT Industry Report and benchmark your prices, packages, and continuity %. Sketch a small-group pilot (who it's for, schedule, price, progression) and pre-sell 6–8 spots. Define two continuity offers with clear outcomes and a simple monthly cadence. Write a one-page model map for your area (payers, demographics, demand) and choose cash-only vs hybrid accordingly. Programs Mentioned Clinical Rainmaker: Systems to get you full-time in your clinic. Mastermind: Scale space, team, and operations. PT Biz Part-Time to Full-Time 5-Day Challenge (Free): Expenses, visit targets, pricing, 3 paths to go full-time, and a one-page plan.

About the Hosts: Doc Danny Matta—staff PT, active-duty military PT, cash-practice founder & exit; now helping 1,000+ clinicians start, grow, and scale with PT Biz. Yves Gege—cash-practice owner and PT Biz co-founder focused on systems, leadership, and scaling.

In this episode, I break down how to hire a great property manager — someone who protects your investment, keeps your units occupied, and saves you from the headaches that sink new investors. I walk through what property managers actually do, what their fees should look like, and when it makes sense to hand over the keys instead of managing yourself. You'll also hear the questions I ask every PM before hiring and the red flags that tell me to walk away. If you've been self-managing or struggling to scale your rental portfolio, this episode will give you a clear framework for finding and vetting the right property manager. From interviewing tips to understanding contracts and handling legal curveballs, you'll walk away ready to make smarter, more confident management decisions.   Timestamps (00:00) Welcome + intro (01:18) What property managers actually do (02:59) Vacancy math: price vs. speed (03:36) Understanding fees and management costs (06:31) Handling legal curveballs and tenant issues (08:08) How to interview and vet your property manager (10:06) Red flags + final takeaways About the Show On the Military Millionaire Podcast, I share real conversations with service members, veterans, and their families.

Leaders Miss ThisMatthew Fitzpatrick, CEO of Invisible Technologies—the #2 fastest-growing AI company in America—leads with a principle many overlook:AI may power the future, but people give it purpose.What makes Matt's leadership stand out isn't the speed of growth—it's the intentionality behind it.He reminds us that real progress doesn't come from louder voices or faster code.It comes from people.From listening.From slowing down long enough to get it right.Here are a few principles he shared that every leader—AI or not—can use:

What if everything you were taught about career success was designed to keep you working harder while staying trapped? In this episode, we're dismantling the traditional career playbook and rebuilding it around one goal: your freedom. This is pillar five of choosing yourself: Career Architecture. We're getting strategic about money, security, and designing work that actually serves your life. We're talking about how to navigate systems that weren't built for you, why single women especially need to be ruthless about income, and the truth about what freedom actually costs. Should you climb the corporate ladder? Build multiple income streams? Work remote? Hire help? We're breaking down exactly what career architecture means when the goal isn't just success, it's sovereignty. If you've ever felt like you're working hard but not building toward freedom, this episode will change how you think about your career. ----more---- Ready to stop living life on autopilot and start designing it intentionally?

Harvard sparks outrage by hiring drag queen Lahore Vagistan as a visiting professor in Women, Gender & Sexuality. PBD and the crew debate taxpayer funding, DEI, academic credibility, and whether elite schools are prioritizing politics over parents and students.

On a fiery segment with host Mike, economist Christian Briggs lays out why H-1B has morphed into a corporate cost-cutting scam that suppresses U.S. wages and drains local economies. He backs Trump's plan to slap hefty fees on H-1B hires, forcing Big Tech to either pay foreign talent fairly or finally hire qualified Americans. Briggs demolishes the “talent shortage” myth, calling it what it is: a wage-suppression strategy that ships prosperity overseas and starves U.S. communities of spending, tax revenue, and growth.He argues a 20% wage boost would echo across Main Street. More iPhones, new cars, home remodels, pools…fueling a real economic ecosystem instead of funneling cash to corporate balance sheets. His bottom line: stop outsourcing the American Dream. If companies want top global talent, pay for it, but quit undercutting U.S. workers.Bonus from Briggs: regarding the precious metals outlook…gold & silver is solid, but platinum is the sleeper he expects to double before gold, as nuclear and industrial demand ramps under Trump's energy push.

Struggling to hire the right people—or worse, stuck with mis-hires who drain your time and energy?In this episode, Bridgit Norris sits down with Emily Geddes, an attorney licensed in Washington and Idaho, business strategist with an MBA, and adjunct professor at Gonzaga Law who graduated first in her class.Emily brings a rare perspective to the intersection of law, business, and leadership, shaped by years in business consulting, healthcare administration, and now transactional and real estate law at Malek + Malek.Together, she and Bridgit unpack how to hire with values at the center, build teams you can actually trust, and turn hiring from a dreaded chore into a growth tool for your firm.If you're tired of playing roulette with your hires, this conversation will show you how to create clarity, avoid costly mistakes, and build a culture that lasts.Key Takeaways from Bridgit and Emily:1. Start with Values, Not ResumesHiring starts long before the interview.When your mission and values are clear and visible, you naturally attract candidates who share your vision and filter out those who don't.2. Use the Three C's FrameworkCompetence gets someone in the door, but character and chemistry determine whether they thrive.By looking beyond skills, you create space for integrity, humility, and teamwork to guide your decisions.3. Treat Hiring as a Team SportA hiring process that includes staff and peers gives you a fuller picture of a candidate.This not only uncovers red flags but also strengthens buy-in from the people who will work with them every day.4. Prioritize Communication and TransparencyClear expectations and open conversations prevent issues from escalating.Addressing concerns right away allows for training or mentoring—and, when needed, timely decisions to part ways.5. Humanize the Hiring ProcessEvery interaction leaves an impression.Closing the loop with candidates, even with a simple note, demonstrates respect and reinforces the kind of culture you want to be known for. "Close the loop. These are human beings who have feelings… even a quick email or a quick phone call saying, hey, we decided we're not hiring for this position—it sets you apart as a good place to work." — Emily GeddesGet in touch with Emily Geddes:Website: http://malekattorneys.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/emilyhgeddes/

For the Glory KC is back with the 149th episode of the show!Sporting Kansas City did what we've been asking for and hired a new President of Soccer Operations. David Lee is in charge of all things soccer over at Sporting KC, and he'll report directly to ownership. That's actually the first (serious) subject on the pod. CSO? PoSO? General Manager? Sporting Director? Technical Director? To quote the former King of the Seven Kingdoms, Robert Baratheon, "titles, titles, titles."On today's, not quite an emergency podcast, we learn about David Lee's professional past, his time with NYCFC and his track record of success.He also comes out of the City Football Group (CFG) empire, so we tell you what the heck that means and what impact that likely had on the resources he had at his disposal and how it could both be benefiting him and limiting him at other times.Sheena and I also weigh in on Lee's history of youth development and a knack for signing young talent. A lot of that is CFG related, but it also could be the direction he decides to take with Sporting KC. There is so much to talk about with Lee, you should probably just download the episode already!As a tease, here are some of the quotes from the media we'll cite around the excitement of the David Lee hire:David Gass: "This is probably better than what I would have guessed is a best-case scenario for SKC.”Tom Bogert: "David Lee joining Sporting KC from NYCFC as CSO is a big move. Impressive by SKC to court and land Lee, as it's rare for a CSO to leave for another CSO role. Lee one of league's respected sporting executives. Gets to rebuild SKC around Dejan Joveljic, Manu Garcia and more."Joe Lowery: "SKC fans should be pleased with the David Lee hire. While it's hard to know how much of NYCFC's success during Lee's time there stemmed from his roster-building vs. CFG's resources, he's got real experience in a recruiting machine."Taylor Twellman: "Smart. Clever. Great Hire from Sporting KC. David Lee is someone who can really get SKC over the hump and his experience with NYCFC in MLS will be invaluable in turning around the franchise in Kansas."Andrew Weibe: "This is truly a great get for Kansas City. Lee has repeatedly hit at every roster designation with his signings (not all HRs, of course, before you get in the mentions). Pascal Jansen has been an A+ managerial hire. NYCFC has been consistently good to excellent under his watch."In the Digital Crawl, we hit on a few more topics, including:MLS Offseason scheduleSKC International call-upsA new job for Peter Vermes?World Cup Ticket Pricesand more!Here is a rundown of topics and start times:Sporting KC hire a CSO - 2:50Digital Crawl - 59:59Upcoming GamesSporting KC @ Minnesota United, Sat.

The core principle of journalism is to "seek the truth and report it," a mission that is constantly challenged by those who don't want the truth to be told.The First Amendment protects journalism in the United States, yet there is a growing concern about governmental restrictions on press freedoms. Journalists are facing unprecedented attempts to silence them through lawsuits and intimidation, raising alarms about the future of the free press.Can the truth survive an assault by the US Department of War?Read the transcript and notes for this episode on our website. Key Takeaways The First Amendment guarantees freedom of press and speech, but these rights are increasingly under attack by new government restrictions and litigation. Journalism is crucial for democracy as it holds power to account, yet current trends threaten to stifle investigative reporting and free expression. The lines between news, opinion, and entertainment are blurring, demanding that audiences become more critical of their media consumption. Young journalists may become discouraged from pursuing hard-hitting stories, leading to a prominent decline in investigative journalism. Advocacy and support for journalistic freedom are vital in preserving a healthy, informed democracy and counteracting misinformation.

I met Michelle Desmond a few months ago at a birthday gathering for a mutual friend.  As Michelle started talking about her work in dying, death, and grief, I had question after question. I realized quickly I had to get her on the pod. I was so excited and grateful when she said yes. This is such an important topic that impacts every single human, yet very few ever talk about it. Michelle is a corporate executive turned thanatologist (expert in dying, death, and bereavement). After experiencing extensive personal losses, she chose to leave a career that included leadership roles in marketing, innovation, and line-of-business management at Verizon, T-Mobile, and Starbucks to pursue a Master of Science degree in the study of thanatology. She is passionate about bringing education, guidance, and innovation to the modern experiences of death and grief. She founded On Grief and Death LLC, through which she offers workshops and classes, 1:1 grief guidance, and consulting to businesses. She has led group and individual programs at companies, as well as the world-renowned Miraval Resort in Tucson. Michelle is an adjunct professor at Marian University, teaching master's degree students about the role of technology in how we die and grieve. Listen in to hear Michelle share: What thanatology is and why she left a successful corporate career to go into this field The costs of living in a culture that leaves us utterly unprepared for experiencing loss, death, dying, and grief The biggest myths (and corresponding truths) about grief The costs of us not speaking more openly about grief - especially in professional spaces What would be different if we were to normalize talking about grief and loss  How companies and individuals can support others through experiences of death and loss of all types Links Mentioned:  Connect with Michelle: www.ongriefanddeath.com Michelle on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/michelle-desmond-811410/ Michelle on Substack: Death and Other Stories Get Michelle's Book: Death and Other Stories Attend Sara's October Retreat for Women Business Owners: saradean.com/retreat Join Sara's Next Business Coaching Cohort (Oct-May): https://saradean.com/influence-ignite-business-group-coaching/ Hire me to speak: saradean.com/speaking Coach with me: https://saradean.com/executive-coaching-services Connect with me on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/saradeanspeaks Watch Shameless Leadership episodes on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@saradeanspeaks Interested in becoming a sponsor of the Shameless Mom Academy?

Here's a question that keeps startup founders up at night: How does a first sales hire build pipeline and prospect effectively when there's zero technology, no tools, and absolutely no data resources available? That's the challenge Matthew Russell brought to the table, and it's a scenario that's far more common than you'd think. Companies transitioning from founder-led sales often throw their first sales hire into the deep end with nothing but a laptop and a "good luck" pat on the back. If you're nodding your head right now, you're not alone. But here's the good news: some of the most successful sales teams were built from exactly this position, and there's a proven playbook for making it work. The Hook Is Everything When Will Frattini joined his boss Jane in Austin back in 2011, they had zero presence in the market. No reputation, no established relationships, no fancy tech stack. Just two people and a mission to build from scratch. The first lesson? Your job isn't to reinvent the wheel or create some elaborate sales process. Your job is to figure out what hook the founder used to close their first deals, then ruthlessly replicate it. This means getting the founder to show you exactly how they won business. Listen to their calls. Shadow their meetings. Mirror their approach. Don't try to be clever or add your own spin yet. Just learn what actually works. Here's the critical part: you need the founder to be brutally honest with you about your early meetings. Will's boss Jane had the right to refuse any meeting he set. If it didn't qualify, she'd tell him exactly why. That feedback loop is gold because it teaches you the difference between a meeting that sounds good and a meeting that actually advances the sale. Master the fundamentals before you try to optimize. The Metrics That Actually Matter Forget about creating a complex sales process with seventeen KPIs. In the beginning, you need exactly one metric that matters: qualified meetings that convert to next steps. Will's early goal was 20 to 30 worthwhile meetings per month. Eventually they scaled that to 60 per rep. But notice the word "worthwhile." These weren't just any meetings. They were conversations with real potential that the founder or sales leader validated. The qualifier matters because it forces you to get better at targeting and messaging, not just activity for activity's sake. You can't game this system by booking junk meetings. When Victoria Walker asked how long it takes to build metrics in a niche market, the answer is simple: you'll have metrics after day one. How many calls did you make? How many connections? How many appointments set? But here's what trips up most new outbound teams: they expect instant results, don't see them, and quit before the cumulative impact kicks in. The 30-Day Rule Changes Everything The prospecting you do today pays off somewhere in the next 90 days. This is the rule of cumulative impact, and it's why most outbound efforts fail. Companies start strong, don't see immediate results, and abandon ship. Then they restart six months later with different reps, different messaging, and the cycle repeats. This is death by fits and starts. Your commitment has to be ironclad: we're doing this every single day for at least 90 to 120 days before we make major changes. You'll make small tweaks to messaging and targeting along the way, but you don't stop the engine. Think of it like an elite sports team watching game film. You're looking for incremental improvements. Last month you closed five good deals. This month you're aiming for six. You're not rebuilding the entire playbook every two weeks because the metrics look scary. Handling the "How'd You Get My Number?" Objection D'elvis Huerta raised a challenge every salesperson faces: prospects who are surprised or even concerned when you call their cell phone. They ask how you got their information, and it throws you off your game.
