Episode Summary: Meet our guest for this episode, https://www.thebayareateam.com/company/team/barnaby-bear (Jim Walberg), born in southern California and is currently based in San Francisco. In this episode, I sit with Jim, and he shares his journey into Real Estate, up to date working with the http://www.thebayareateam.com (Bay Area Team with Pacific Union - Christie's International Real Estate.) He emphasizes the importance of relationships in Real Estate today and the transition of these relationships into the online space using social media. Top Takeaways:  "When you've done it so long, no matter what it is you're doing… you evolve into a place of unconscious competence." - [Jim Walberg] "We're in the relationship business… it's not about Jim… it's about 'how is it that we can build deep and wide long-lasting relationships, and how is it that those relationships can be served?'" - [Jim Walberg] "Today, I look at the Inman group as part of my professional village and my professional family, so for me, it's like going to a family reunion." - [Jim Walberg] "I may be wrong, but I don't believe it's possible to have a successful Real estate practice without an audience and an audience that you're going to be able to serve." - [Jim Walberg] Episode Highlights: [01:07] Intro [01:22] Meets today's guest, Jim Walberg.  [02:02] Jim reflects on his relationship with Nate Ellis, who passed away following an illness.  [04:36] About Jim's background [07:03] How Jim got started in Real Estate [11:30] About Pacific Union - Christie's International Real Estate.  [13:56] Jim talks about his interest in Caribbean Real Estate.

Bill discloses that he is a "Colon cancer thriver," not just a survivor, and Jim is also a "Prostate cancer thriver."  Growing up on Redondo Beach in California allowed enjoying life on the oceanside even though Jim's family was not financially buoyant. After this, Jim moved to California State University Long Beach, initially thinking he would become a high school teacher. He, however, moved to San Francisco to join a friend who was starting a company, which he later owned.  On how Jim got into Real Estate, he discusses initially starting as a spec home builder for personal investment, with massive success due to the growth rate in the Bay Area at the time. His first contact with the real estate space was as a client, but he was utterly unimpressed with the overpromising and under-delivery of agents. With no interest in being a realtor, Jim had also turned down an offer to be a partner at a Real Estate company but was convinced to join solely functioning on the management side. The company started with the name United California Brokers. While working there, he saw an opportunity to create an experience for clients better than the disappointing one he endured. Jim got his broker's license and finally got into Real Estate.  Discussing the structure at Pacific Union - Christie's International Real Estate, Jim shares that Christie's, originally an art auction house, decided to partner with unique Real Estate boutique brokerages in 2009 to take advantage of the benefits of hanging the art in homes. Pacific Union is one of the 132 such partnerships globally, including Asia, Europe, and South America.  Jim shares how he built up interest in Real...

In this episode, recorded Monday, February 22nd and Tuesday, February 23rd, Alex starts off with a little housekeeping. She covers the complications that are contributing to the team's current 1-3-1 record: the recalls of Ross Colton, Alex Barre-Boulet, and Riley Stillman; the injuries to Daniel Walcott, Henry Bowlby, and Aleksi Heponiemi; the complications of joining the players from two NHL organizations (the Tampa Bay Lightning and the Florida Panthers). She then briefly discusses Syracuse's game versus Rochester, originally scheduled for February 24th, that was rescheduled for March 1st because of an "abundance of caution due to COVID-19 protocols." She stresses that there has been no positive test result, and talks about her lack of desire to speculate over what is going on. She then welcomes Crunch Chief Operating Officer Jim Sarosy to the podcast. Throughout the personal, in-depth conversation, Alex and Jim cover a wide variety of topics, including: What the joys and the struggles of the past 11 months have been like for an AHL front office The moment the league's pause in March 2020 became real for Jim and those in the organization The full impact of the Lightning's support and partnership throughout everything that has happened What the plans for the future might involve, including how the team is aiming to reach out to fans and sponsors How Jim really feels about getting an office pet for the Crunch's staff and crew (hint: it's good news!) Although the past 11 months have been incredibly challenging for Jim and the Crunch, there's much to celebrate as Jim made sure to emphasize: "I'm beaming with pride on what we were able to do with a smaller group to be able to have this return to play come true."

Real estate investors are always looking for ways to increase their rents and improve their cash flow on their multifamily properties (and single-family rentals, too). But what’s left to optimize and/or add value after the hard services, the flooring, paint, and common areas are already outfitted? My guest, Jim Monk, not only found this overlooked amenity but has built a business around it! As any good real estate investor knows, maximizing space and providing amenities will strengthen tenant occupancy, as well as give you the ability to charge higher rents. One area that some overlook is the closet. Yes, the closet!  After 20 years in the multifamily renovation space, Jim Monk saw a massive opportunity in which the closet was being dramatically undervalued. The multifamily closet has not changed in the last 50 years. For decades, the closet was a bland, uninspired space that was functional (at best). Thanks to poor, haphazard construction, most closets offered less than 42% of their potential storage capacity. Over the past two decades, consumer demographics have shifted dramatically. Millennial and baby boomer renters today are not satisfied with a place to live; they want a unique residential experience enhanced by resort-style amenities (this is becoming increasingly important to renters since COVID). They seek attention to detail that promotes an exceptional quality of life. They want to know they’ll have enough space for their stuff without renting storage or living in a cluttered, claustrophobic environment. On today’s episode, Jim will talk about how you can increase your rents 2% to 5% per unit, which is a healthy increase, even if you have a smaller portfolio. For those renting out single-family homes, this episode will show you how and why optimizing your closets will increase your NOI.  Key Takeaways    From a financial services career to creating Clozzits How Jim started his company Increasing multifamily NOI with closet upgrades In this ultra-competitive real estate environment finding an edge to maximize the rent and the NOI is crucial and can separate you from your competition  How Jim is attacking the 95% of existing multifamily inventory  Listening to the marketplace enabled him to make the strongest product play How Clozzits drive the cost down for their products How companies are adopting Clozzits to increase their NOI How they work with property owners and the numbers behind it.  The difference in working with A-Class and B-Class properties B class property owners are looking for something additional that will allow them to differentiate themselves from other properties   What real estate markets are doing well right now  How much space can be optimized with Clozzits vs. other systems Utilizing cost segregation  If you’re able to add another line item to your cost segregation schedule, adding bonus depreciation for the closet space is a brilliant strategy. Working with student housing, senior housing, and condo property owners Why the competition is calling him  The beginning stages of building his company and how they had to pivot for profit What Jim Would Tell His Younger Self: Focus on finance more. Start saving now and be creative on how you do it.  What His Biggest Risk Taught Him: It’s important to know and listen to your team.

Jim spent his early years working as a banker in Sioux Falls and eventually moved into art and sculpting as a creative and whimsical outlet, bringing joy to so many living in the community.

Tax – for many of us, it can be a word that strikes fear into the heart of our businesses! Global tax is a complex area of expertise, that often isn’t linked as closely as it should be to operations and decision-making. Enter Global Tax Focus. Their goal is to help you see the global landscape of an enterprise by focusing on the intersection of operations and tax. They partner with an international team of deep technical business and tax specialists, bringing the latest in global thought leadership, to help you to identify where business and tax efficiencies can be achieved, by focusing on cross-border transactions, business structure, and reducing both tax and operating costs. Today I’m joined by Jim Dawson of Global Tax Focus to talk more about the implications of tax on many different areas of business, why being pro-active with tax is so beneficial, and why tax and supply chain professionals need to collaborate to ensure their voices are heard. IN THIS EPISODE WE DISCUSS: [9.22] Jim’s background in international tax, and the tax implications on supply chain. [11.20] How Jim helps owner-managed or family-owned middle market companies to understand and manage their tax implications, now and in the future. “If you start making decisions to move assets, people and risk around the world, those aren’t decisions to be entered into lightly.” [16.02] How recent tax changes disrupted the market, and the impact of that on nearshore and offshore investment, income and processes. [24.15] Jim’s top 5 pieces of advice for the supply chain community on exactly how taxes should feature within their strategies. “For most companies, taxes represent 20% of the cost reported on an income statement – so it’s very important that, in order to reduce that amount, supply chain professionals work collaboratively with the accounting/tax department.”     [29.18] The benefits of free trade zones. [31.58] A real-life example of how Jim is helping a client navigate current challenges and market changes. [35.55] Jim’s thoughts on the idea that tax advantage is a business solution rather than a supply chain solution. “Tax should never way the dog’s tail – it should be what’s best for the company from an operation perspective, and then overlay tax on top of it.” [38.17] An overview of transfer pricing.

Multinational corporations have the opportunity to play a unique role in the energy transition. Health care company, Novartis is taking that opportunity seriously, moving the needle significantly when it comes to the company's own carbon footprint and power usage as well as creating opportunities that smaller organizations may be able to utilize to move their power purchases toward renewable energy faster.  James Goudreau is “Head of Climate” for Novartis and our guest on this episode. His experience in the U.S. Navy, serving as a logistics and procurement specialist enabled him to not only understand the inner workings of a large organization's procurement operations, it also introduced him to the necessary considerations large organizations need to make regarding climate issues. Listen to hear how Novartis is making a difference in the global renewable energy transition.  You will want to hear this episode if you are interested in... How Jim's Navy career led him into climate-related issues and planning [05:01] The internal corporate process of procuring power from a wind farm in Texas [11:15] Novartis' physical properties being considered for future energy conversion projects [15:42] How and why Jim desires to work himself out of a job [17:33] The wide-ranging approach Novartis has taken to climate change issues When Novartis created the position “Head of Climate” and tapped James to take on the role, the company took their work in carbon emissions reductions and climate mitigation and paired it with climate adaptation. The focus is multi-faceted, creating a portfolio through efficiency, adopting renewables as rapidly as possible, creating a credible and transparent program of offsets, and combining that with adaptation to understand the risks, opportunities, and responsibilities associated with climate.  Some of the questions Jim began asking were… What are we doing with emissions that impacts our clients? What is happening to impact patient populations (since Novartis is a healthcare company)? What's our responsibility to understand how a changing climate impacts communities, the people we serve, our associates, and our supply chain? As you can see, there are many interdependent things to consider if the right issues are to be addressed in the right ways. Jim's experience in the Navy set him up for addressing those issues perfectly. Navy logistics experience that translates into a business energy transition In his role with the U.S. Navy, Jim was intimately involved with logistics questions that informed how the Navy operated in various theaters around the globe. Climate issues were among those he regularly had to consider. He explains that climate issues greatly impact issues of national and global security so the U.S. military is keenly interested for those reasons.  Examples: The increasing recurrence and severity of storms impact many things we tend to take for granted such as sewage, water, food distribution, transportation, logistics, economics, and the social fabric of a community. These issues create or promote either stability or instability. When climate issues cause those areas to fall apart you start to see risks to the individuals increase through viruses, climate-related migrations of populations, destabilization of economies, and more. This experience enables Jim to translate those same concerns into a business context. He says it's more important than ever to acknowledge the rapidly accelerating rate of change due to climate issues and seriously consider the impact it has on such interdependent systems. It impacts how companies support operations and supply chains, as well as those connected with organizations. There is far too much involved to do this subject justice in a small write-up like this, so be sure you listen to hear Jim describe the issues.  James Goudreau wants to work himself out of a job as “Head of Climate” While the title of “Head of Climate” at Novartis can sound like a career track with plenty of future job security, Jim doesn't see it that way. He's eager to work himself out of a job. How is that? He believes that when his role is fulfilled correctly, he'll be able to help the company reach a place where it is investing in energy efficiency, shifting rapidly to renewables, developing credible offsets, and understanding and managing risks in aways that incorporate all the elements of climate risk and environmental sustainability into how the company designs and delivers products routinely. When that happens, the company won't need a “Head of Climate” role because everyone will be doing their job, executing on a daily basis, and together will be running a profitable, sustainable business that consumers have confidence in — because it is a values-driven organization. That's an admirable goal and embodies the spirit of the many professionals like Jim who are committed to making the renewable energy transition a reality. Listen to hear more of Jim's amazing perspective and how he's helping Novartis accelerate the change.

(Photo courtesy of Dr. James M. Bower, and used with permission.) Technically, Whyville is a virtual world--for kids. But that description falls far short of doing it justice.  Whyville, which Pasadena-based educational software company Numedeon introduced in 1999, was the first game-based learning world on the Internet.  It contains over 100 games and activities, as well as live events. 150 different organizations have been sponsors, over the past 21 years. Participants can design, research, chat among themselves and even conduct their own small business--using game units called "clams" as currency.  The goal: to teach STEM concepts through interaction and practical applications. Fun is a key element.  So is independent thinking.  For each student, the game outcomes depend on their actions. Today, Whyville is the oldest and largest virtual community for children. And since its introduction, Whyville has taught its young participants all types of STEM concepts.  Math, geography and science are just three of the subjects they can learn through practical application.   Playing games, asking questions and exploring are all at the core of that education, which is different for each child. Currently, Whyville is putting the finishing touches on new content, aimed at fulfilling the needs of distance learning which the current pandemic has presented. Dr. James M. Bower is the creator of Whyville's virtual world.  A neuroscientist, Dr. Bower (or Jim, as he prefers to be called) is the principal owner, CEO and Chairman of the Board of Numedeon, Inc.   Numedeon continuously updates Whyville, keeping the content fresh for young participants (and their parents, teachers and grandparents, who can also be "Whyvillians"!). In fact, Jim and his team introduced a pandemic into their virtual world in 2004.  Next, they introduced the possibility of vaccinations against the "Whypox".  However, they left that decision up to individual community members. A look towards the future Currently, with a new grant from the National Science Foundation, Whyville will be creating tools for teachers to help students understand COVID-19. Did we mention that membership, and participation, is free? Jim shared the story of Whyville, offered a look inside this virtual world, and previewed the new content he and his team are currently developing for educators for fall semester. On this edition of Over Coffee®, you will hear: How Jim first became an educational innovator; How Whyville first came about; What participants first experience; Some of ways in which kids' virtual interaction helps them deal with the real world; A look at the science program, "WASA", which NASA sponsored in Whyville; The story of the "Whypox", and how it led to education, virtual enterprise and independent research; How the "Whypox" spawned further education on other real-world disease effects; What Jim and his team are currently developing, with an NSF grant, in response to COVID-19; A look at a new math resource which will be available for fall semester; How teachers can register their classes; What's coming in the future; A concept which Jim has seen reinforced, during his work with Whyville;  

No brain left behind — that’s the mission of today’s guest, Jim Kwik, the author of Limitless - Upgrade Your Brain, Learn Anything Faster, Unlock Your Exceptional Life and the founder of Kwik Learning. After experiencing a brain injury when he was only five, Jim struggled through school, dubbed “the boy with the broken brain.” So, Jim is well aware of how much untapped cognitive potential we all have, even those of us who have been told that we’re cognitively deficient in some way or were abandoned by the traditional educational system. But there are very few of us living up to our brain’s full potential. The sad truth is that most of us were not taught the best ways to learn, were not taught habits that contribute to our cognitive development, and are constantly exposed to environmental factors that further erode our ability to learn, remember, and focus. However, there is a silver lining: it’s not too late!  An old dog can, in fact, learn new tricks. And, in this episode, Jim is going to share the fantastic framework for learning and improving brain function that he’s developed over years of research and experimentation. 08:45 — Jim’s new book, Limitless - Upgrade Your Brain, Learn Anything Faster, Unlock Your Exceptional Life Limitless is not about being perfect — it’s about progressing beyond what you currently believe is possible The three-part limitless model, a framework for unlocking human potential Ending the trance that we’ve been put in Information without application is useless   22:00 — How to stop self-limiting language and negative self-talk from interfering with your life and goals How we end up using limiting language and creating limiting beliefs The three invisible forces that keep you in your self-limiting box Jim walks Luke through some of his own limiting beliefs Mindfulness is a muscle that you can train Getting comfortable being uncomfortable Misconceptions about motivation The motivation formula The lies we were told about reading How we can break negative patterns and create positive ones   01:08:10 — How devices ruin our ability to focus (and how you can fix it) We’re never taught how to study How phones are ruining the youngest generations’ focus and memory We’re taught how to learn and what to learn, but now how to think   01:18:55 — How Limitless will give you your power back Why Jim felt the need to release his book during the pandemic, while everyone is being disrupted and finding it harder to focus How Jim practiced what he preached when writing his book After you order Limitless, make sure you get your free 10-day Kwik Start Course Limitless for kids and teens How did Jim learn how to write a book?   01:29:20 — Cocooning in self-isolation, lockdown, and/or quarantine How you can grow during this time How Jim remains positive in the midst of the coronavirus pandemic Upleveling your skills The struggle the caterpillar goes through to break out of its cocoon is what gives it the strength to fly More about this episode.

Jim Bartoo has been the director of marketing and public relations at Nashville Zoo since 1999. During that time, he has seen the Zoo grow from local awareness to national and international recognition with more than 1.2 million guests visiting in 2019. Before coming to Nashville, Jim spent seven years marketing the Columbus Zoo in Columbus, OH. He is accomplished in all aspects of marketing and communications initiatives across the Zoos owned, earned and paid platforms. Jim lives in the Bellevue area (southwest Nashville) with his wife Carole and two daughters, Emma and Grace. In this episode of Destination on the Left, Jim Bartoo, the Marketing and Public Relations Manager of the Nashville Zoo, joins us to share his story. He discusses the challenges of marketing a zoo when the destination brand experience is Music City, and he shares the creative solutions his organization has developed to fit into Nashville’s brand. What You Will Learn in This Episode: How Nashville Zoo’s Expedition Peru exhibit received top honors in exhibit design by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums Why the women’s bathroom at the Expedition Peru exhibit as well as the men’s room in the Zoo’s Entry Village were named America’s Best Bathrooms by Cintas in 2019 Jim Bartoo’s journey to becoming the Marketing and Public Relations Manager of the Nashville Zoo How Jim’s role has changed over twenty years with Nashville Zoo What Jim and his team have done to help the Nashville Zoo stand out from the crowd Why Nashville Zoo shifted its focus from the local market to the visitor market a couple of years ago Why construction can create a negative effect on your visitor audience How the Nashville Zoo went from a work-in-progress to a full-fledged destination How Jim’s team responds to actionable visitor reviews Nashville Zoo Jim Bartoo is the Marketing and Public Relations Manager of the Nashville Zoo. He is a lighthearted and enlightening individual who brings so much value to the table. Amidst the Coronavirus pandemic, a light-hearted conversation that doesn’t harp on the widespread panic is a much-needed change of pace. Jim discusses the challenges of marketing a zoo when the destination brand experience is Music City, and he shares the creative solutions his organization has developed to fit into Nashville’s brand. His perspective on partnerships and collaborations are invaluable, and he has helped bring more than 1.2 million visitors through the gates in the last year. Adaptive Marketing Nashville has a large tourism market and visitors have a certain expectation when they travel there. Being a zoo in the market has been very challenging, but Jim has learned a lot in his twenty years there. At first, it was about letting people know they were there in the first place. The marketing efforts were initially designed to get the local populace over to the zoo to sample what was going on. Discounted or free admission, promotional events, and fundraisers were just some of the ways they managed to draw traffic. But as things progressed, Jim and his team were able to focus on promoting specific exhibits and events at the zoo itself. People became more familiar with it over time, but that does not detract from the challenge Jim faced in separating the zoo from the city. Becoming a Destination When you talk about destination marketing, everything is very brand-centric. DMOs are responsible for fulfilling the brand experience they create and ensuring that the experience a visitor has circles back to the brand itself. But that is difficult to achieve when your experience is not complete. Nashville Zoo struggled to wow visitors while major exhibits were being built because the guests felt as though they were missing out on something. When the Expedition Peru exhibit was completed, however, visitors could finally navigate a continuous circuit of attractions. Jim shifted the marketing focus from building anticipation and began to construct the identity of the zoo as a destination. The zoo is not a place for live music or drinking, so they are not the poster child of the Music City brand. But their hard work and creative marketing have put them on the map anyway.
