Training and skill mastery are paramount, with a focus on cyclical learning and practical application. Engaging in multifaceted sales strategies and maximizing available resources can significantly enhance sales performance.     In the ever-evolving world of automotive sales, clear vision and persistent effort are non-negotiable for those aiming to surpass the mediocrity that ensnares so many. In a candid exchange of ideas, automotive sales experts LA Williams and Sean V. Bradley unravel the secrets to transcending average sales performance, echoing the fundamental truth: selling cars isn't just about the transaction; it's about agility, discipline, and training.   The Weight of Success in Automotive Sales Success in the automotive realm doesn't arrive unbidden; it needs to be earned through strategic effort and consistency. Bradley's analogy, “Why don't people lift weights? Because they're heavy,” aptly captures the essence of pushing beyond average—where the real challenge and potential for more significant earnings lie. “If you want the things that the average person doesn't have, you've got to be willing to do the things that the average person isn't willing to do,” Bradley proclaims. This call to action extends across roles in the dealership, from salespeople to dealer principals, emphasizing that mediocrity's shackles can only be broken through a dedication to diligent effort. For salespeople striving to sell more than the industry average, Williams highlights the necessity of buckling down and not waiting until career pressures peak. “Help should have been happening for the last 90 days,” Williams insists, stressing the importance of proactive practice and continuous improvement.   The Imperatives of Mastery: From Training to Application The training process in the automotive industry is pivotal to transforming raw information into actionable results. Williams and Bradley delve into the critical nature of training, positing, as Bradley affirms, “Information without application is just information. But information with application equals transformation.” This underscores the need for time, experience, and relentless repetition to ensure true evolution within sales practices. Real training, according to Williams and Bradley, goes far beyond simply absorbing new information. “Training is not really training, it's just exposure,” notes Williams. The magic occurs when exposure is met with practice and implementation, transforming knowledge into ingrained skills. Bradley emphasizes the systemic advantage when you become a “master of your craft,” analogizing mastery to chess over checkers—more strategic and intentional.   Utilizing Advanced Resources to Multiply Effort In today's technologically advanced sales environment, leveraging innovative tools and platforms can significantly enhance performance. Recognizing AI's potential, LA Williams highlights the efficiency of platforms like Jerry, Podium's AI-powered tool. Describing how Jerry can work tirelessly, Williams stresses its role in facilitating lead conversion by booking test drives and staying attuned to customer interactions without human intervention. Alongside AI, Bradley discusses the importance of ensuring robust utilization of existing CRM systems, often overlooked tools (“a dusty treadmill,” he quips) capable of transforming sales operations when employed comprehensively. He encourages sales professionals to broaden their approach, engaging in social selling, honing in on video follow-up skills, and utilizing resources that set them apart from competitors. Engaging with resources like the Millionaire Car Salesman Facebook Group also allows for networking and learning from over 30,000 automotive professionals. It's an untapped vein of knowledge and community, offering real-time insights and adapting to contemporary challenges in car sales.   Recapping Insights and Challenges Ahead Echoing the significance of industry standards and best practices, Bradley challenges listeners with an essential question: “What's one heavy thing you've been avoiding in sales? Commit to doing it today.” This invitation is not just a call for introspection but a launchpad for actionable change in one's sales approach. Williams adds, "Whatever it is…commit to doing it come hell or high water. Right? You're going to do it. Right. It's just going to happen regardless." As Bradley and Williams elucidate, transcending the status quo in the automotive industry requires both the courage to confront hard truths and the wisdom to apply lessons learned. Success isn't a fluke; it's a well-earned outcome of practice, repetition, and the relentless pursuit of betterment, echoing Bradley's poignant advice to never practice with real customers—only with fellow practitioners until perfection in approach is achieved.

Summary In this episode of 'Five Minutes to Chaos', Steven Kuhr discusses the evolving landscape of crisis management in 2025 with emergency management experts Kelly McKinney and Tom Serio. They share personal experiences from recent disasters, the complexities of federal crisis management, and the importance of effective communication and coordination among stakeholders. The conversation emphasizes the human element in crisis management, the role of the private sector, and the need for emergency managers to demonstrate their value through effective execution and preparedness. The episode concludes with reflections on the future of FEMA and the necessity for public-private partnerships in crisis response. Takeaways Crisis management is essential in today's complex environment. Understanding your 'why' is crucial for emergency managers. FEMA's role is often misunderstood; they are not first responders. Effective communication is vital during a crisis. The private sector plays a significant role in disaster recovery. Emergency managers must demonstrate their value through action. Preparedness and planning are key to successful crisis management. Coordination among various stakeholders is critical in emergencies. Survivability should be the focus of business continuity plans. The future of FEMA may require restructuring and better integration with local agencies. Contact Information Via LinkedIn

Happy Monday! Sam and Emma speak with Stefania Barca, distinguished researcher at the University of Santiago de Compostela in Spain, to discuss her recent book Workers Of The Earth: Labour, Ecology and Reproduction in the Age of Climate Change. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on the GOP's government shutdown, ABC's inauguration plans, Social Security, Trump's cabinet, Trump's plan to privatize the post office, Syria's changing political landscape, Gaza's massive death toll, and McKinsey's liability in Purdue Pharma's opioid case, also touching on preparations for Trump's authoritarianism and the centrist “No Labels” party's struggles to not capitulate to the right. Dr. Stefania Barca, PhD, then joins, diving right into work on the broadening of “reproductive work” – a form of labor regarding social reproduction and the socializing, educational, and care work required for it – to include the need to cultivate and maintain a healthy environment for society to flourish sustainably. Stepping back, Barca unpacks the historical tension between labor and environmental movements, with the two being seen as in conflict between the interests of blue- and white-collar workers, respectively, despite that very tension being very prevalent within these specific movements themselves, expanding on that latter point by walking through the myriad strains of environmentalism – be it green capitalism, environmental justice, ecomodernism or degrowth – and how they approach concepts like consumption, labor transitions, production, and wealth inequality, with each taking on a different approach to the relationship between capitalism and the environment.  After expanding on the true alignment of the crises of care and the environment, Stefania parses through the value of understanding this reproductive work – in both social and environmental contexts – as one worthy of financial compensation, from the value it directly provides society in its immediate provisions to the central role it can play in pushing a necessary labor shift away from industries directly associated with environmental decay toward ones that can build to a sustainable future. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma tackle the growing call for Biden to ratify the Equal Rights Amendment, unpack the coalescence of the GOP around alleged islamophobe, predator, abuser, and alcoholic Pete Hegseth's nomination, and look to history in their response to Marc Andreessen's call for an antithesis to FDR. Jimmy Dore responds to Peter Hotez's critique of RFK Jr. by… blaming the existence of polio on the polio vaccine, plus, your calls and IMs!

Les 10 Segoulot imperatives de Kipour! by Rav David Touitou

On today's show we are talking about quarterly goal setting. Our company uses a system that has become very popular among companies both large and small.  We use the EOS based on  the book Traction by Gino Wickman. EOS stands for the Entrepreneurial Operating System. We review our results against the goals we set for the past quarter and we set the business imperatives for the quarter. A business imperative is called a ROCK. This is something that we treat as a top priority. It is something that is tracked on a weekly basis. So on today's show I'm going to outline one of the Rocks for the quarter.  ------------- *Real Estate Espresso Podcast:** Spotify: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://open.spotify.com/show/3GvtwRmTq4r3es8cbw8jW0?si=c75ea506a6694ef1)   iTunes: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-real-estate-espresso-podcast/id1340482613)   Website: [www.victorjm.com](http://www.victorjm.com)   LinkedIn: [Victor Menasce](http://www.linkedin.com/in/vmenasce)   YouTube: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](http://www.youtube.com/@victorjmenasce6734)   Facebook: [www.facebook.com/realestateespresso](http://www.facebook.com/realestateespresso)   Email: [podcast@victorjm.com](mailto:podcast@victorjm.com)  **Y Street Capital:** Website: [www.ystreetcapital.com](http://www.ystreetcapital.com)   Facebook: [www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital](https://www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital)   Instagram: [@ystreetcapital](http://www.instagram.com/ystreetcapital)  

The gospel's indicatives—all that God has done for us in Christ—are always the basis for our Christian imperatives—the ways we respond in faith and obedience.

Gordon Chang, Contributor, Gatestone Institute & Newsweek I spoke with Gordon Chang about the threat of a violent conflict with China and the Imperatives the Chinese now face internally to engage in warfare and the implications for us and the Philippines in particular, if they choose to do so as well as, of course, the repercussions that will be felt far more broadly around the world in that event. Bill Walton, Host of The Bill Walton Show Bill Walton and I discussed the lengths to which the Harris-Biden administration is going to obscure the prospects of a conflict with China and to try to appease the Chinese into refraining from it by propping up their regime at a moment when it is arguably in extremis. Dr. David Wurmser, Director of CSP's New Program on Fighting Global Anti-Semitism Dr. David Wurmser and I visited about the state of the war in the Middle East, the preemptive attack by Israel against Hezbollah, Hezbollah's retaliation for it, and the elimination of one of its leaders by the Israelis a few weeks back. Also, what is likely to come next concerning Gaza, Lebanon, and Iran?

Dr. Joe Rigney goes through the creation account in Genesis 1-3 to show the headship of the husband and wife relationship. Dr. Rigney emphasizes the importance of a courageous marriage in the 21st century, based on biblical teachings. He discusses the concept of male headship rooted in creation, highlighting the roles of husbands and wives. This session delves into the complementarity of the sexes in God's design and the importance of faithful fulfillment of specific roles. Dr. Rigney discusses the parallel between Christ and the church and husband and wife in complementarianism. The roles of husbands in sacrificial leadership and wives in showing respect and honor are emphasized for a harmonious and fruitful marital relationship. # Building a Courageous Marriage: Understanding Roles and Aligning Actions In a world that increasingly challenges traditional values, understanding the biblical foundations of marriage is more crucial than ever. Today, I want to delve into what it means to build a courageous marriage in the 21st century, focusing on the roles of husbands and wives, and how these roles align with God's divine plan. ### The Cultural Controversy In recent times, the church has faced significant controversies, particularly regarding gender identity and the biblical understanding of what it means to be human. These debates are not merely academic; they have profound implications on how we live out our faith and establish our households. As conservative, Bible-believing Christians, we often find ourselves culturally marginalized for our beliefs in the immutable nature of gender as created by God. ### The Role of Marriage in Shaping Children The home is the first school of learning. Here, children first encounter and absorb concepts of gender roles. The way a father loves their mother, the respect a mother shows to their father, these early observations shape children's expectations of their own future roles. In essence, marriage provides a framework for understanding manhood and womanhood, which is foundational for nurturing Christian children who can navigate the complexities of modern society with biblical integrity. ## Understanding Manhood and Womanhood The Bible provides clear frameworks in Genesis and Ephesians about what it means to be a man and a woman. These passages are not archaic texts but living words that still speak powerfully into our lives today. For instance, Ephesians 5 calls wives to submit to their husbands as to the Lord, and husbands to love their wives as Christ loved the church. This mutual submission and love are indicative of the harmony God intends for marriage. ### The Indicatives, Imperatives, and Applications To fully grasp the biblical texts, we must understand three key concepts: **Indicatives**: These are factual statements about reality as established by God. **Imperatives**: These are commands or duties derived from those facts. **Applications**: These involve applying the imperatives in our daily lives in a way that aligns with the indicatives. ## Aligning Actions with God's Commands The beauty of God's design for marriage is seen when these roles are lived out according to His commands. When a husband exercises his role as head of the family with love and integrity, and when a wife supports her husband with respect and grace, the marriage thrives. This alignment is not always easy. It requires courage, faith, and a continual reliance on God's strength and wisdom. In the face of challenges, may we find the fortitude to build homes that are beacons of Christ's love, truth, and grace. Let us hold fast to the truth, love earnestly, and lead our families with the courage that comes from God alone. www.ReformedRookie.com

Four imperatives for God-honoring faithfulness from the life of Daniel. Pastor Andrey Tiginyanu.

“The strength of our culture was something we used in the presentations to analysts and investors”, says Daniel. “We did some work around our employee value proposition and we asked our colleagues, ‘Why do you work at Hamilton?' The common theme was collaboration and that's how we came up with the phrase ‘In good company'. As part of the IPO, we used it as our overall company tagline to say, ‘You're in good company with Hamilton, whether you're a client, broker, stakeholder or investor.'”On the Insurance Coffee House Podcast, Daniel shares his career journey from the NatWest graduate programme, his varied roles at Munich Re to joining Hamilton Insurance Group six years ago. He talks about the transition from a larger, more corporate environment to starting his current role at Hamilton, with 120 people and $500m in premium in 2018. “Joining Hamilton, I was excited for the opportunity to be at a company, almost at its start and helping it build. It's very different to being at a large organisation. What excites people about joining Hamilton is that you feel you can move the needle.”The business has subsequently grown to 550+ employees, with $2bn in premium and listed on the NYSE in November 2023. Daniel gives an overview of the core functions of the business today and his role of overseeing the HR function, internal and external communications, as well as developing the strength of culture Hamilton has become known for. “We firmly believe that having a strong culture is critical and a component of our overall underwriting success. Engaged employees are an essential part of Hamilton's success. They drive productivity and innovation, that will lead to the ultimate success of the company.”Daniel explains how Hamilton's values of ‘Be smart, Be sensible, Be open, Be more' underpin activity around recruitment, performance management and talent management, as well as the key role communication plays. Regular town halls at both group and local level, together with ‘Hamilton on a page' lays out strategy and helps employees understand current performance and achieve our business imperatives of sustainable underwriting profit, strategic growth, technology enablement and being a magnet for talent.Daniel highlights the importance of collaboration and how the outcomes of staff surveys help address any team concerns. He shares his advice for leaders coming to interview at Hamilton and advises his insurance industry HR peers not to rush the hiring process if they're unsure of a candidate, but to move with haste if they are. Daniel explains Hamilton's DEI statement, ‘Open minds open doors' and how welcoming and respecting differences, helps attract and retain the best talent. “We embrace all forms of diversity, ethnicity, sexual orientation, religion, but gender has been something we're particularly proud of what we've been able to achieve.Of our total employee base, 45% are female. 36% of our Underwriting leads and Claims leads are female. There's always room for growth, but we're extremely proud of that progress we've been able to make in that area.”Daniel stresses the key leadership roles and influence of Pina Albo, Anita Kuchma, Megan Thomas and Gemma Carreiro at executive level. “Pina is the first female CEO of a Bermuda-based company to ring the New York Stock Exchange bell and Hamilton was the first woman-led insurance company to go public in 20 years.” Daniel emphasizes what he looks for an in an insurance executive search partner, including trust and third-party perspectives and insights. He concludes by adding the one lesson his career has taught him, he thinks everyone should know. “There are always other forms of information that come through to you as a professional, but having good, solid data to help you make decisions is such an important...

Today we conclude our study in 2 Peter and look at four end time ethics for followers of Jesus.

In this episode Bridgette and Irvine explore the three imperatives that go into being a Resilient Leader. Practicing these three things on a daily basis will enable you to stand apart from the emotional pressures of the day and influence others in extraordinary ways.

Spanish imperatives can be tricky, especially some of the most-used imperatives such as ve, ten, and váyase. Let's learn both the positive and negative imperatives of Ir, Irse, and Tener — and get lots of practice using them in context.

So you want to lead your team toward innovation. Does that require that you know where you're going? Not according to Linda Hill.Hill is a professor of business administration at Harvard Business School whose research focuses on leadership and how organizations achieve innovation. When it comes to generating breakthrough ideas, Hill says it's less about a creative vision and more about stepping into the unknown. “Innovation [is] not about an individual coming up with a new idea,” she says. “Instead, innovation is the result of the collaboration of people with diverse expertise and diverse perspectives coming together, being able to collaborate, being able to experiment together and learn.”In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Hill and host Matt Abrahams discuss how leaders can foster cultures and environments where innovation thrives — where teams use communication and collaboration to “co-create the future.”Episode Reference Links:Harvard Business School Profile: Website Linda's books: Collective Genius: The Art and Practice of Leading Innovation Being the Boss, with a New Preface: The 3 Imperatives for Becoming a Great Leader Becoming a Manager: How New Managers Master the Challenges of Leadership Linda's article on the value of collaboration & conflict: Collective Genius Communicator Linda admires: Vineet Nayar + Employees First, Customers Second Connect:Email Questions & Feedback >>> thinkfast@stanford.eduEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn Page, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedInStanford GSB >>> LinkedIn & TwitterChapters:(00:00:00) IntroductionHost Matt Abrahams introduces guest Linda Hill, an expert in leadership development and innovation from Harvard Business School.(00:01:10) Leading for Innovation vs. Leading for ChangeFundamental differences between leading for innovation and for change, and the unique challenges required for innovation.(00:02:53) Creating a Culture of InnovationThe essential components of a culture that promotes innovation, with focus on communication and collaboration.(00:06:21) The Role of Shared Values and Purpose in InnovationShared values, and the distinction between vision and purpose within innovative organizations.(00:09:43) Communication's Impact on InnovationHow effective communication facilitates innovation, including strategies for engaging diverse teams and the significance of storytelling.(00:14:30) Conflict and Creativity in Collaborative EnvironmentsThe value of conflict in innovation, and how managing disagreements and diverse viewpoints can lead to more creative solutions.(00:16:06) The Final Three QuestionsLinda Hill shares practices to foster collaboration with others, a communicator she admires, and her ingredients for successful communication.(00:19:54) ConclusionSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In today's episode of Keeping Abreast with Dr. Jenn, we're joined by Dr. Thomas Seyfried, a researcher and advocate for the metabolic therapy approach to cancer treatment. Our discussion takes a deep dive into the controversial and groundbreaking perspective that cancer, rather than being primarily a genetic disease, is actually a metabolic disease rooted in mitochondrial dysfunction. Throughout the episode, we dissect the conventional understanding of cancer treatment, exploring the radical shift in thinking that Dr. Seyfried proposes – treating cancer by targeting the body's metabolic processes. We also touch on the implications of dietary interventions, like calorie-restricted ketogenic diets and the role of fasting, in managing and potentially reversing cancer.In this episode you'll:Explore the connection between cancer and metabolismUnveil the damaging effects of conventional treatmentsConsider environmental factors that contribute to cancer by damaging mitochondria.Learn about the glucose ketone index calculator, a tool for managing metabolic therapy.Gain insight into how effective stress management supports cancer treatment.Recognize the need to integrate metabolic therapy into standard cancer care.00:05 Introduction and Welcome01:08 Guest Introduction: Dr. Thomas Seyfried02:30 The Role of Fear in Cancer Treatment Decisions04:04 Understanding Cancer's Metabolic Roots10:05 Environmental Factors and Mitochondrial Damage13:47 Case Study: A Dog's Recovery from Cancer Through Diet17:22 Misconceptions about Weight Loss in Cancer Patients21:39 Addressing Parasitic Connections to Cancer24:50 Deconstructing Conventional Oncology Practices29:34 Therapy Strategies: Fasting, Diet, and Stress Management34:15 Critique of Current Cancer Medications and Costs39:42 Imperatives for Change: Education, Screening Tools, and Proper Timing45:10 Dr. Seyfried's Research Journey and Challenges to Established Dogma51:06 The Importance of Diet and Lifestyle in Combating Cancer54:29 Closing Remarks and Upcoming InitiativesDr. Thomas Seyfried is a professor of biology at Boston College, a leading cancer researcher, and the author of "Cancer as a Metabolic Disease."

This episode is the audio I pulled from a video I just did. I came across a post in one of my social media feeds where a church had posted Joshua 1:8 as a memory verse for its people to memorize this week. The passage reads,"Do not let this Book of the Law depart from your mouth. Meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful." (Joshua 1:8)Is it helpful to commit to memory a passage commanding that the Law of Moses be meditated on and that my successful meditation on the Law will ensure my success in life?
