Many times your first sales meeting is NOT with the decision maker or CEO at a company.  That means your sales strategy needs to be different in that initial meeting in order to get the final meeting with the REAL decision maker.  In this solo episode of Sales is NOT a Dirty Word, I reveal why winning over internal stakeholders - like a CMO, Ops Lead, or HR Director - is the key to closing the deal. If you want a powerful internal champion that makes the CEO say yes, you've got to address the unique pressures and metrics of the person right in front of you. You must uncover each stakeholder's biggest pain points, demonstrate genuine empathy for their day-to-day challenges, and empower them with everything they need to pitch your solution up the chain.  Once you become a TEAM with your internal advocate, they will fight to internally sell you over any other solution or competitor. Listen in to Discover:  ✔️ Why simply focusing on overall company revenue won't help you: A CMO's or Ops Director's success is measured differently and you must find out what that i! ✔️ How to turn an internal stakeholder into your champion: Show them you'll make their work easier and their results stronger. ✔️ Key discovery questions that reveal specific challenges an internal team faces - so you can tailor your pitch to their daily reality. ✔️ The right way to bridge the gap to the CEO: Collaborate with your internal ally to secure buy-in from the top. ✔️ Practical tips for dealing with departmental turf wars, budgeting concerns, and multi-layered decision-making processes.

Nearly 14 years ago, while serving as an HR Director for a major Manchester charity, Niel Cope identified a gap in the market - local businesses lacking the right HR support and infrastructure. With a deep passion for helping organizations manage and develop their people, Niel took the leap, launching a business in the midst of a recession, with five kids, a big mortgage, and no clients. Today, that bold decision has grown into a thriving venture, making a real impact on businesses and their people. People Matters HR is now a growing company based in Bury, Greater Manchester, specializing in providing tailored HR and Health & Safety support to businesses of all sizes. In a wide-ranging discussion, Niel and I talked about: ✅ Identifying a market gap and launching an HR consultancy business. ✅ Balancing family responsibilities while transitioning to entrepreneurship. ✅ The impact of networking on People Matters HR's early growth. ✅ Pricing strategies for client acquisition and business sustainability. ✅ Transitioning out of daily operations for long-term success. ✅ The role of branding and SEO in driving business growth. ✅ Expanding into leadership development beyond compliance work.

Host: Carol MacAllister Guest: Shelly Hockenbrocht, Lead Morning Hostess and Mentor Description: Shelly Hockenbrocht is the kind of employee HR Directors dream of hiring. Eager to work hard and learn everything, Shelly started at Willow Valley at age 17, still a Junior in high school. In her Senior year, she worked full-time in WV in culinary, afternoons and evenings. Thirty-nine years ago, when the total WV staff was about 50 and residents maybe 300, Shelly served in the dining room at Manor. Dining was formal in the early days: staff wore white nursing dresses, clean and crisply ironed, with matching nursing shoes. Resident men wore dress slacks and suit jackets; resident ladies wore dresses, hose, and heels. All practiced good manners, soft voices, and proper comportment. The staff all knew each other, became friends, some found spouses, and hung out together after hours. It was a family. And when weather or illness resulted in short staffing, the administration pitched in, sometimes bringing their entire families to do whatever was necessary—serving meals, washing pots and pans, or mopping the floors. Shelly fit right in and has ever since. Always in culinary, Shelly has served and prepared food, cooked breakfast, and been the morning hostess. When her personal life hit bumps, the administration adjusted her job or hours to help her out, always committed to keeping a good employee…. and that is still the case. And from the beginning, WV has always handed out Christmas bonuses, in those early years it was cash, now it is checks. As Shelly says, WV is a great employer. Getting to know the residents is her greatest joy, and losing them is her greatest sorrow.

This episode features an interview with Brady Pyle, Chief HR & Inclusion Officer at Space Center Houston. Over a 30-year federal career, Brady held various HR leadership roles at NASA, including HR Director for the Johnson Space Center and Director of HR Services, earning two NASA Outstanding Leadership Medals. In 2013, Brady created his leadership blog, OutOfThisWorldLeadership.com, which now ranks among Feedspot's Top 100 Leadership Blogs.In this episode, Shawn and Brady discuss how space exploration's unique challenges shape forward-thinking organizational strategies, strategies for cultivating internal talent and establishing robust leadership pipelines, and utilizing AI in leadership and employee development.-------------------“When leaders are moving from individual contributors to leadership roles, a lot of times they were selected because they're the technical expert. They're the smartest person in the room. We had to teach them as you move into that role, you've got to train yourself to use coaching skills, to ask questions. Because if you're constantly giving answers, you're not going to grow the capacity of the team. You're the team's lid. If you want to grow technical expertise in your function and in your field, those are the people we want in our management and leadership positions. You're asking questions, you're developing those creative solutions from your team. The role becomes more of coaching and facilitation and less of giving the answer.” – Brady Pyle-------------------Episode Timestamps:*(02:56): Getting to know Brady*(16:21): Leadership development strategies *(27:02): Implementing effective recognition programs*(32:35): Building trust in leadership *(42:44): Differences between NASA and Space Center Houston*(45:43): The role of AI in leadership development-------------------Links:Connect with Brady on LinkedInFollow Brady on XLearn more about Space Center HoustonRead Brady's blogConnect with Shawn on LinkedInCohesion PodcastAbout Simpplr

My guest this time is Victoria Tomlinson - chief executive and founder of Next-Up - the company she launched in 2018 (at the age of 63), to help businesses and their employees use the skills and talent of the 50+ generation in new ways, before and after retirement.  [Note that our chat was recorded on the eve of the 2024 general election so before the current government was elected!]    A former director at EY, Victoria is a bestselling author and an international speaker on unretirement, personal branding and using LinkedIn strategically as well as on leadership and women on boards. Through Next-Up, she is on a mission to combat age discrimination and get society and employers to value and invest in 50+ employees and use their skills to create the workforce of the future. Shockingly fewer than 1 in 10 organizations are tackling ageism as part of their EDI strategy and age discrimination is rife.    Victoria quotes hearing from an HR Director at an event that they personally “won't even look at an applicant's CV if they've worked in one organization for 20-30 years” - and they're surely not alone… It seems ageism is the one ‘ism' that no-one is really cracking down on - though Victoria fully expects discrimination cases to increase in the near future.    Despite very well-publicized stats that the share of the population aged 50 and older will increase from 37% in 2020 to 45% in 2050 and widespread skills shortages, many recruiters are still blatantly discriminating against older applicants, and when Victoria posts (as she regularly does) on LinkedIn, she is deluged with hundreds of examples of individuals who have first hand experience of that discrimination.    Next-Up is tackling this in range of ways, with progressive employers, and Victoria mentions a few that are leading the charge, like Unilever (their ‘U work' model provides a basic contract and benefits, and then employees can contract on top of that for projects of all sizes and shapes that fit with their individual circumstances), and Fullers Brewery who are using Restless to recruit older workers and combat skills shortages.    With multi-generational workforces of five (and soon seven) generations in the workplace, companies need to figure out how to manage the differing needs of all employees for whom traditional 9-5 models just do not work. Also to focus on multi-generational working – purposefully designing boards, projects and everyday work with generations threaded through it all.   Victoria also offers her pointers for what older workers can do to ensure that we are not being 'left behind' which include:   Taking advantage of free courses to upskill in tech, and AI in particular, since older individuals have a key role to play in helping companies better understand AI and the places where it needs to be refined - a huge opportunity; Data and cyber risks - again , lots of free courses; Being mindful of the language we use: avoid saying things like “oh we didn't do it like that in my day;” Respecting, mentoring, and forging relationships with younger people; Being curious and cultivating a growth mindset.   She also shares her advice for finding ‘age inclusive' employers and her dream for a future where Unretirement means people retain long term relationships with their employers wherein they come back to to mentor colleagues, companies make use of their valuable knowledge and use them as an interim resource – to cover holidays, maternity leave and more; and individuals retain purpose and value in their work.    You can find Victoria at https://www.linkedin.com/in/victoriatomlinson/ and Next-Up at  https://www.next-up.com/ https://restless.co.uk/ is the other organization that Victoria mentions.

As a military veteran or first responder, you need to be planning and implementing strategies to prepare for your transition into civilian life. In this Flashback Friday episode of the Transition Drill Podcast, we recap Episode 56 with Jose Rodriguez. Jose grew up knowing he was going to be a cop. He graduated high school early and began working as a volunteer with the local fire department. At that time the police officers were also firefighters and Jose saw this as a way to get his foot in the door. After almost 2 years as a volunteer and eventually a reserve officer, he was hired as a full-time police officer in 1998 – he was 19 years old at the time. In 2011 he learned of a medical condition which forced his medical retirement in 2012. With no plan for a transition he put together a resume and started sending it out. Today he is an HR Director.

But after speaking with this week's guest, empowerment leader Catherine Llewellyn, I'm beginning to rethink my thoughts on the subject.     In our lively talk, Catherine expounds on her thoughts about consciousness. It's a subject she's thought about her entire life, as she grew up surrounded by alternative thought leaders and transformational programs. Catherine says that consciousness can't be defined as it's around us everywhere. But there are ways we can use and elevate our consciousness to become more aware and enlighten, as Catherine explains:·      the role dreams play in accessing our consciousness·      why our consciousness is always changing·      how to shift your consciousness to benefit your life·      can we be conscious all the time?·      how working with our body elevates our consciousness·      what Pellowah is and how it can transform your sense of self     If you want a better understanding of how you can create a better life for yourself, don't miss this revealing episode of Dream Power Radio.     Here is what Catherine has to say about herself:      I'm Catherine. My lifelong passion for human evolving and transformation began at age 6, encouraged by my wildly bohemian upbringing and a variety of catalytic encounters with radical thought leaders. This path delivered extraordinary experiences, challenges and learnings in my work and personal life.      My father was an alternative practitioner.  He taught me that the body is designed to heal itself, and the spirit is designed to grow and expand.  He showed me that as a nature-cure practitioner his job was to support and assist the natural process of healing and growth. This made perfect sense to me!      Following a rebellious and somewhat mad adolescence, I fell upon Robert D'Aubigny's extraordinary and ground-breaking Exegesis Programme. For the first time I was in a group situation, emphasizing consciousness, self-awareness and personal transformation. Wow. Life-changing. I stuck around with the people I met there for a good 20 years, exploring how those values could be applied in work situations as well as in personal lives. Across those 20 years I evolved from a voice trainer, through HR Director, Marketing Director and Team-building Trainer - to Organizational Change consultant and facilitator, and finally Board level facilitator and executive coach. A meaty transition to be sure. Much growth was involved, tears and laughter - it was all very real.      Just as it was starting to feel like time to peel off and set up on my own, through that organization I met the remarkable folk at Surrey University's Human Potential Research Group, founded by the father of Humanistic Psychology John Heron. Through their master's degree I recognized that my highly facilitative style was in fact Humanistic. They taught me how to hone my approach and threw in a raft of new techniques to boot. Armed with all this juiciness I set off for the next 20 years deepening and expanding my Humanistic practice.      Meanwhile ~ bSupport the Show.Want more ways to find joy in your life?
