Apple is known for technological innovation. They came up with the iPod, the iPad and the iPhone – all of which were game changers.苹果以技术创新着称。他们推出了 iPod、iPad 和 iPhone——所有这些都改变了游戏规则。 But their latest offering has had many tech journalists scratching their heads.但他们的最新产品让许多科技记者摸不着头脑。Why? Their new smartphone has been released without the humble headphone jack. 为什么？他们的新智能手机已经发布，没有简陋的耳机插孔。That's right, customers who buy an iPhone 7 will not be able to plug traditional headphones straight in to their device.没错，购买 iPhone 7 的客户将无法将传统耳机直接插入他们的设备。Instead, they'll be encouraged to use 'AirPod' headphones, which connect wirelessly to the iPhone.相反，他们会被鼓励使用“AirPod”耳机，它可以无线连接到 iPhone。 These look much the same as the old earbuds, with one crucial difference: they're cordless. 这些看起来与旧耳塞非常相似，但有一个关键区别：它们是无线的。And whilst we're all familiar with the frustration of tangled wires, the thought of two expensive bits of kit dangling precariously from our ears raises a simple question: what if they fall out?虽然我们都熟悉缠结的电线带来的挫败感，但一想到两根昂贵的工具包从我们的耳朵里摇摇欲坠，就提出了一个简单的问题：如果它们掉出来怎么办？AirPods have also been derided on social media for their appearance, with people saying they look like mini-hairdryers, like electric toothbrushes, and even like cartoon dog Snoopy. AirPods 也因其外观而在社交媒体上受到嘲笑，人们说它们看起来像迷你吹风机，像电动牙刷，甚至像卡通狗史努比。Others claim the change is about profit, as old headphones are now obsolete without an adapter.其他人声称这种变化是为了利润，因为没有适配器的旧耳机现在已经过时了。Apple themselves admit the move has taken "courage", and insist the new approach saves vital space inside the phone, as well as making devices more water- and dust-resistant.苹果自己承认这一举措已经“鼓起勇气”，并坚称新方法节省了手机内部的重要空间，并使设备更加防水和防尘。 AirPods also double as microphones and can be used to control the iPhone with just your voice.AirPods 还兼作麦克风，可用于通过语音控制 iPhone。So, could this mark the demise of one of the longest-standing technologies? 那么，这是否标志着历史最悠久的技术之一的消亡呢？The simple 3.5mm headphone jack was first used in transistor radios as far back as the 1950s, and earlier versions go even further to the telephone switchboards of the late 1800s.早在 1950 年代，简单的 3.5 毫米耳机插孔就首次用于晶体管收音机，而早期版本则更进一步用于 1800 年代后期的电话交换机。Regardless, with a falling share price and strong, innovative competition, Apple needed to do something bold.无论如何，随着股价下跌和激烈的创新竞争，苹果需要做一些大胆的事情。 Time will tell if their headphone strategy will help cut through the noise.时间会证明他们的耳机策略是否有助于消除噪音。词汇表up with 想出（点子或计划）game changers 对特定商业领域有很大影响的产品scratch one's head 冥思苦想jack 插孔plug 插入（插头）wirelessly 无线地earbuds 一副耳塞cordless 无绳的tangle 缠成一团的precariously 不稳定地deride 被嘲笑obsolete 被淘汰的，废弃的adapter 适配器dust-resistant 抗尘的double as 还可以被当作transistor radio 晶体管收音机switchboard（电话）交换台share price 股价cut through the noise 迅速应对质疑

I was privileged to meet you way back in 1995 where I was an elementary principal at liberty Christian school, it was even before that was the vice principal the first year I moved and I think you were in seventh grade so it's been a while. 12 00:01:21.420 --> 00:01:23.580 Jet's iPhone: That was a long time ago, yes yeah. 13 00:01:24.420 --> 00:01:25.590 Paul Casey: Look at you now. 14 00:01:27.330 --> 00:01:28.890 Jet's iPhone: i'm not much taller but. 15 00:01:30.990 --> 00:01:36.330 Jet's iPhone: I think I have done some things that are a bit different or unexpected since then. 16 00:01:37.110 --> 00:01:41.910 Paul Casey: Yes, well help our tri city influencers get to know you tell us about. 17 00:01:43.260 --> 00:01:48.600 Paul Casey: What habitat does tell us what you do for 80% of your day all that stuff. 18 00:01:49.470 --> 00:01:50.550 Jet's iPhone: yeah so. 19 00:01:51.600 --> 00:02:03.510 Jet's iPhone: habitat for humanity tri county partners is the official name of our local affiliate here we're located primarily in tri cities, but we do work. 20 00:02:04.020 --> 00:02:15.840 Jet's iPhone: And walla walla as well and and, quite frankly, our geographical service area sorry geographic servicer is all of Benton Franklin and walla walla counties. 21 00:02:16.770 --> 00:02:32.370 Jet's iPhone: So we have a lot of work ahead of us, currently we've been in the tri cities we've been operating as an affiliate for 26 years but we've only really worked and Pascoe ritual and and kennewick and walla walla. 22 00:02:33.960 --> 00:02:45.090 Jet's iPhone: We would love to expand that influence to the outer parts of our counties someday and looking forward to figuring out how to do that habitats mission. 23 00:02:45.900 --> 00:03:04.350 Jet's iPhone: is seeking to put god's love into action habitat for humanity brings people together to build homes communities and hope and our vision is that everyone in the tri county area would have a decent place to call home. 24 00:03:05.550 --> 00:03:06.360 Jet's iPhone: We don't. 25 00:03:07.500 --> 00:03:18.540 Jet's iPhone: We don't give homes away people partner with us to purchase the homes, we provide every discount that we can to make them as affordable as possible. 26 00:03:19.770 --> 00:03:22.380 Jet's iPhone: For low income families in our in our area. 27 00:03:23.940 --> 00:03:29.700 Jet's iPhone: But that's the mission and that's the vision that we are trying to carry out here locally. 28 00:03:30.780 --> 00:03:40.200 Paul Casey: What I love about the vision is it's so big you know I think big visions should be big that it makes it just draws us for like that everyone has. 29 00:03:40.590 --> 00:03:49.320 Paul Casey: A great place to live right and it's just like man, if you worked every second of every day, it would still be this big vision that you'd still be shooting for so. 30 00:03:49.380 --> 00:03:53.670 Jet's iPhone: We hope we certainly hope to work ourselves out of a job yeah. 31 00:03:53.850 --> 00:03:54.240 Right. 32 00:03:55.440 --> 00:04:07.530 Jet's iPhone: And, but what's the point in doing this, if you still have people who are homeless or housing insecure in some way or another, we there's still a lot of work to do. 33 00:04:08.490 --> 00:04:14.670 Paul Casey: Here here so you're an executive director, what do you spend 80% of your day doing. 34 00:04:15.960 --> 00:04:20.850 Jet's iPhone: Oh, I I probably spend 80% of my day asking other people how to be an executive director. 35 00:04:24.180 --> 00:04:25.470 Jet's iPhone: it's a very humble answer. 36 00:04:27.210 --> 00:04:43.470 Jet's iPhone: I, I will say I I probably spend 80% of my day learning, though in some way, shape or form i'm I feel like i'm constantly learning or re educating myself on what I think are good practices for urban planning housing. 37 00:04:45.210 --> 00:04:57.870 Jet's iPhone: i'm learning, who are people and other organizations that habitat needs to somehow partner with in the Community, or at the State level or even at the federal level. 38 00:04:59.220 --> 00:05:03.000 Jet's iPhone: Constantly researching grant opportunities. 39 00:05:04.560 --> 00:05:05.850 Jet's iPhone: opportunities that would. 40 00:05:07.290 --> 00:05:20.130 Jet's iPhone: increase the affordable ness of homes that we're that we're doing and and then asking people to be a part of that so yeah i'd say 80% of my job is is is learning how to do it. 41 00:05:21.180 --> 00:05:22.440 Jet's iPhone: in some way, shape or form. 42 00:05:22.710 --> 00:05:26.160 Paul Casey: Great answer yes and so why do you love what you do. 43 00:05:27.870 --> 00:05:28.350 Jet's iPhone: hmm. 44 00:05:29.610 --> 00:05:30.090 Jet's iPhone: I think I. 45 00:05:31.230 --> 00:05:39.870 Jet's iPhone: I want to I you know, I was looking at that question earlier and I think it's a real privilege to love what you do. 46 00:05:41.220 --> 00:05:53.460 Jet's iPhone: I don't think it's something that everybody experiences or is experiencing, currently, especially in this in this current era where job job security. 47 00:05:54.570 --> 00:05:56.040 Jet's iPhone: and employment has been. 48 00:05:57.150 --> 00:06:00.510 Jet's iPhone: Just all over the map, so to say so. 49 00:06:01.860 --> 00:06:08.460 Jet's iPhone: To love what you do I think it's a huge privilege and to have something to do it's a huge. 50 00:06:09.690 --> 00:06:10.770 Jet's iPhone: blessing in itself. 51 00:06:12.240 --> 00:06:12.720 Jet's iPhone: So. 52 00:06:14.130 --> 00:06:17.700 Jet's iPhone: So I, as I was thinking about that you know why really. 53 00:06:19.020 --> 00:06:20.760 Jet's iPhone: kind of stands out because. 54 00:06:23.790 --> 00:06:25.530 Jet's iPhone: I love, what I do. 55 00:06:27.810 --> 00:06:34.140 Jet's iPhone: Because it's something that I think I find just inspiring and motivating. 56 00:06:35.280 --> 00:06:42.720 Jet's iPhone: To see people come together to be a part of building a better community. 57 00:06:44.160 --> 00:06:54.660 Jet's iPhone: And at the same time working for an organization like habitat it's a triple win you know it's it's it's a win for. 58 00:06:56.130 --> 00:07:09.180 Jet's iPhone: The people that we serve who want to get out of subsidized Rentals and into affordable home ownership create wealth and opportunity for their children and their grandchildren. 59 00:07:10.050 --> 00:07:28.800 Jet's iPhone: it's a win for the communities that we are constantly evaluating and looking for ways to make sure that everybody moves forward and upward and it's a win, for I think myself just to be a part of that and to be a part of the staff. 60 00:07:30.060 --> 00:07:37.080 Jet's iPhone: And people who feel similarly similarly passionate about the issue of housing. 61 00:07:38.490 --> 00:07:44.850 Paul Casey: yeah I can hear your gratefulness coming through in that answer I can hear your passion for the mission which is. 62 00:07:45.480 --> 00:07:55.080 Paul Casey: What you want from any nonprofit executive leader, because it just spills out into like I said, the staff and the families and the Community so love that. 63 00:07:55.650 --> 00:08:06.630 Paul Casey: So Jen and your journey to be where you are today what have you learned from previous bosses supervisors that could be good or bad that you keep in mind today, while you lead. 64 00:08:08.820 --> 00:08:16.080 Jet's iPhone: that's a really good question um i've had my share of bosses over the years. 65 00:08:17.490 --> 00:08:21.810 Jet's iPhone: And i've had like you said, good and bad ones, I think we all have. 66 00:08:23.520 --> 00:08:34.170 Jet's iPhone: Even if, even if they weren't explicitly bad bosses you've had bosses that weren't as great as others you've had favorite people to work for and people that you just work with you know. 67 00:08:37.050 --> 00:08:46.230 Jet's iPhone: As I think about what the good bosses or the bosses in my life that I have the most respect for and. 68 00:08:47.490 --> 00:09:05.190 Jet's iPhone: How I feel that I have taken that experience and to my own managerial role is recognizing that their success sorry the people that work for me that report to me their success. 69 00:09:06.600 --> 00:09:20.250 Jet's iPhone: is not a zero sum game their success is not mean my failure if they say that they if they succeed and move away or move on to bigger and better things. 70 00:09:20.700 --> 00:09:30.750 Jet's iPhone: outside of the role or the job that they have right now it's not a failure on my part, that is, that is awesome to be able to cultivate. 71 00:09:31.650 --> 00:09:39.900 Jet's iPhone: relationships with people and develop skills and other people that they can then take on to more opportunities for themselves bigger and better. 72 00:09:40.290 --> 00:09:51.690 Jet's iPhone: and exciting things for them that's a huge success that's something that not all my bosses felt, you know they they felt some of my bosses previously felt like. 73 00:09:52.560 --> 00:10:02.610 Jet's iPhone: They needed to keep me in a role, because it was good, it looks good for them, but they didn't want to see much growth, they just wanted to see that. 74 00:10:02.940 --> 00:10:04.590 Jet's iPhone: job was getting done. 75 00:10:05.130 --> 00:10:11.910 Jet's iPhone: And then they went on themselves to bigger and better things and just kind of leave you behind and so. 76 00:10:13.230 --> 00:10:15.720 Jet's iPhone: What I what i've taken away was that. 77 00:10:16.740 --> 00:10:21.840 Jet's iPhone: I want to see the people that work for me achieve more than me. 78 00:10:23.820 --> 00:10:26.460 Jet's iPhone: Because that's that's. 79 00:10:27.630 --> 00:10:29.340 Jet's iPhone: that's success that I can. 80 00:10:30.570 --> 00:10:36.420 Jet's iPhone: I can really be proud of, so I think looking for opportunities with people. 81 00:10:38.250 --> 00:10:44.910 Jet's iPhone: To try new things to develop skills really understand what motivates them and what. 82 00:10:46.050 --> 00:10:55.170 Jet's iPhone: Their goals are so that I can, if I can play a part in helping them achieve that I think that's it's just very rewarding. 83 00:10:56.490 --> 00:10:57.030 Jet's iPhone: and 84 00:10:58.050 --> 00:11:13.740 Jet's iPhone: i'm surprised, as I look back over my bosses that that that that is rare doesn't wasn't always the case, but I had a few and honestly I believe that's partly why I felt the confidence to go after this role. 85 00:11:14.910 --> 00:11:22.050 Jet's iPhone: And to be doing what i'm doing now is because they cultivated that success in me. 86 00:11:23.250 --> 00:11:30.780 Paul Casey: Well, so good yeah I don't think people should be in a leadership role my personal opinion is shouldn't be in a leadership role if they don't have. 87 00:11:31.200 --> 00:11:38.910 Paul Casey: The growth and development of their people as one of their primary functions, I really believe that we have to help our people get better. 88 00:11:39.210 --> 00:11:44.760 Paul Casey: So you're right when that day comes when they move on to some other green pasture maybe it's greener. 89 00:11:45.330 --> 00:11:58.680 Paul Casey: That we we have set them up for success and we smile and cheer them on as they leave because they have become better under our watch, then they came in and it wasn't just a stepping stone. 90 00:11:59.040 --> 00:12:05.220 Paul Casey: And an endurance that we just got through another day together, but we were very intentional in that and leadership. 91 00:12:06.930 --> 00:12:18.210 Paul Casey: So leaders, also have to fire themselves up because every day you're out in front you're the face of the organization, where do you go jet for inspiration as a leader to fire yourself up. 92 00:12:20.880 --> 00:12:23.850 Jet's iPhone: I really wish I had a better answer for this. 93 00:12:25.800 --> 00:12:26.490 Jet's iPhone: I think. 94 00:12:30.060 --> 00:12:31.110 Jet's iPhone: In order to. 95 00:12:32.940 --> 00:12:38.760 Jet's iPhone: inspire myself for habitat and at this epic pass via the executive director. 96 00:12:39.900 --> 00:12:45.600 Jet's iPhone: it's important for me to be in contact and to work with other executive directors from around the state. 97 00:12:48.090 --> 00:12:50.940 Jet's iPhone: hearing what they're working on what their challenges are. 98 00:12:52.770 --> 00:12:58.560 Jet's iPhone: It allows me opportunity to learn and inform sometimes. 99 00:12:59.790 --> 00:13:07.230 Jet's iPhone: I think there are there are affiliate leaders that I can offer some solutions to or guidance or and then other times and most likely. 100 00:13:08.040 --> 00:13:26.070 Jet's iPhone: they're offering that for me and and it's a it's a reminder that the mission like you said is big and it's bigger than our affiliate it's bigger than our State actually and our country what habitats trying to do around the world. 101 00:13:27.420 --> 00:13:44.250 Jet's iPhone: Is a huge undertaking, and I think, making sure that I have some regular connection with other people that are serving at the same capacity level that I am is important, just to not get burnt out. 102 00:13:46.200 --> 00:13:50.460 Jet's iPhone: But to remind myself, that there are there are many, many other people. 103 00:13:51.840 --> 00:13:56.970 Jet's iPhone: engaged in this work and who have stories of inspiration that. 104 00:13:58.470 --> 00:13:59.130 Jet's iPhone: are good for me. 105 00:14:00.420 --> 00:14:11.730 Paul Casey: yeah because it's stories of inspiration pull us up even their frustrations, we can commiserate with like oh other people struggle to not just me i'm not struggling here by myself. 106 00:14:12.150 --> 00:14:14.040 Paul Casey: and ideas get traded. 107 00:14:14.310 --> 00:14:21.060 Paul Casey: that's why I love mastermind groups I think you're in one with some executive directors, that I know of as well. 108 00:14:21.720 --> 00:14:29.850 Paul Casey: As well as in your industry with habitat and other affiliate directors so tries to the influencer listeners if you're not in some kind of group. 109 00:14:30.360 --> 00:14:47.430 Paul Casey: Where people at your level your role within your industry or just across industries gather, I would say form one make a group invite some friends keep each other accountable keep each other pumped up and you'll you'll look forward to those meetings each and every month. 110 00:14:49.170 --> 00:15:01.770 Paul Casey: And then jet there's the continuous improvement aspect I know you're a learner and so you have to set the tone and leadership for learning what are you currently working on yourself to better yourself. 111 00:15:03.810 --> 00:15:04.200 Jet's iPhone: I think. 112 00:15:05.220 --> 00:15:05.820 Jet's iPhone: i'm. 113 00:15:07.080 --> 00:15:13.650 Jet's iPhone: dive into more specifically, some of the things that I i'm learning about one of those areas is. 114 00:15:16.710 --> 00:15:19.950 Jet's iPhone: In the area of racial reconciliation. 115 00:15:21.210 --> 00:15:34.560 Jet's iPhone: You know tri cities i've well i've lived i've had the opportunity to live in many urban environments, bigger than the tri cities, other countries and continents. 116 00:15:35.880 --> 00:15:50.130 Jet's iPhone: And one of the things that I don't think i've ever really thought very carefully about or critically about is what is the racial diversity of our own community here locally and. 117 00:15:51.840 --> 00:15:56.370 Jet's iPhone: I think it was became very pertinent this last year and a half. 118 00:15:57.420 --> 00:16:02.400 Jet's iPhone: As the racial reconciliation conversation has you know sparked. 119 00:16:03.600 --> 00:16:06.990 Jet's iPhone: Many, many, many debates and just. 120 00:16:08.010 --> 00:16:23.310 Jet's iPhone: passionate conversations all over the country, what does that mean for us locally and we're not exempt from it, what but what does that look like, and so one of the things that i've just been trying to read up and better understand is. 121 00:16:25.050 --> 00:16:27.540 Jet's iPhone: This is what does that mean here. 122 00:16:28.650 --> 00:16:31.710 Jet's iPhone: habitat for humanity's very existence. 123 00:16:32.940 --> 00:16:38.160 Jet's iPhone: started in rural Georgia, you know 50 years ago and. 124 00:16:39.450 --> 00:16:49.320 Jet's iPhone: It was along those lines of racial reconciliation and how do we, how does how, how do communities, provide for. 125 00:16:50.250 --> 00:16:57.120 Jet's iPhone: People and create opportunity for those that need it, the most and those that need it, the most in Georgia at that time, where the sharecroppers. 126 00:16:57.660 --> 00:17:17.640 Jet's iPhone: So habitats existence its roots is in racial reconciliation and then never really thought about that aspect of the organization and its mission until this last year and a half and wanting to better understand how does that How does that applied to us locally. 127 00:17:19.110 --> 00:17:34.770 Jet's iPhone: Who are who are the people that we are are trying to serve and what does that look like and not to shy away from the conversation, but actually just try to educate myself a little bit more, so that we can come up with. 128 00:17:35.880 --> 00:17:40.500 Jet's iPhone: Collaborative approaches to address, whatever the situation is. 129 00:17:41.250 --> 00:17:49.740 Paul Casey: so good, and I think we have tri cities recently in the fall had a diversity equity inclusion conference I don't know if you went to that. 130 00:17:50.580 --> 00:17:56.220 Paul Casey: But I heard, I heard good things that it's one of the ways this area is trying to do what you're doing, which is so good. 131 00:17:56.490 --> 00:18:11.070 Paul Casey: Not just go back to your organization's roots and pull that forward into the present here in tri cities, but like you said to not shy away from the discussion, but to learn, even if you don't feel like an expert on it just keep learning about it, so that you can be a part of the discussion. 132 00:18:14.010 --> 00:18:27.480 Paul Casey: How do you balance and integrate family time personal time jet you know work as a nonprofit executive could take up every minute of your day and week So how do you give that priority time. 133 00:18:27.930 --> 00:18:35.610 Paul Casey: To work so that family doesn't suffer and families, so that work doesn't suffer it's probably not an easy answer, but what are you currently trying. 134 00:18:37.980 --> 00:18:44.040 Jet's iPhone: Honestly, Paul this isn't a struggle for me I I I. 135 00:18:45.150 --> 00:18:52.620 Jet's iPhone: I love the work and I realized that it doesn't always fit the standard nine to five. 136 00:18:54.300 --> 00:19:00.360 Jet's iPhone: date, you know typical work week that other jobs have but. 137 00:19:01.860 --> 00:19:02.700 Jet's iPhone: The balance. 138 00:19:02.760 --> 00:19:15.990 Jet's iPhone: For me, is is in boundaries it's when i'm home i'm home that's that's where I I turn off that's where I unwind I don't I try not to check my email too much unless. 139 00:19:16.680 --> 00:19:18.090 Jet's iPhone: i'm waiting on something that. 140 00:19:18.150 --> 00:19:29.910 Jet's iPhone: needed my response you know when i'm home it's that's it i'm i've never been one that works well from home I work better from you this. 141 00:19:30.450 --> 00:19:48.030 Jet's iPhone: And so, this whole I think the bigger challenge has been you know in our current environment with everyone, preferring to work from home how do I get my staff to come back to the office to work with me here because that's where I work better when i'm when i'm at the office. 142 00:19:48.300 --> 00:19:48.840 Jet's iPhone: working. 143 00:19:49.170 --> 00:19:51.630 Jet's iPhone: And when i'm when i'm at home i'm relaxing. 144 00:19:53.490 --> 00:20:02.850 Jet's iPhone: So, having those boundaries, I think, is really important for me to achieve that that balance but, honestly, it hasn't been. 145 00:20:04.230 --> 00:20:11.160 Jet's iPhone: It really hasn't been an issue you know, maybe there, maybe i'm maybe that's a blind spot that I need to think about and talk to my board. 146 00:20:12.180 --> 00:20:13.650 Jet's iPhone: If they feel like I haven't gotten a. 147 00:20:13.920 --> 00:20:14.490 response. 148 00:20:15.780 --> 00:20:16.710 Jet's iPhone: times but. 149 00:20:17.220 --> 00:20:24.750 Jet's iPhone: To be honest, it's it's boundaries and it's also it's also staffing, you know I, I have a staff that. 150 00:20:25.890 --> 00:20:38.940 Jet's iPhone: is amazing, and they do their jobs well and I don't have to worry about little things if I know that they're taking care of it, you know they're they're doing their job they're doing it well. 151 00:20:40.470 --> 00:20:52.290 Jet's iPhone: And, and things are getting done, even if i'm not watching them and so when i'm when I can when I leave the office, I can I can turn my brain off a little bit and and just relax. 152 00:20:53.160 --> 00:21:01.050 Paul Casey: I applaud your great boundaries, because the work will still be there tomorrow and most things that we make urgent are truly urgent so. 153 00:21:01.380 --> 00:21:12.450 Paul Casey: I really applaud that and I think you're right on that the best work life balance is a great staff or a great team wrapped around you at which you can empower to keep doing great things and. 154 00:21:12.870 --> 00:21:26.340 Paul Casey: You recharge your batteries, so you can stay out in front so yeah totally totally applaud that and I want to talk more about your team, but let's uh let's pause before we head into that next question and give a shout out to our sponsor. 155 00:21:29.700 --> 00:21:36.270 Paul Casey: So Jeff let's talk about hiring and retaining great employees, probably more pertinent today than ever before, how. 156 00:21:36.660 --> 00:21:47.430 Paul Casey: what's your process or the organization's process for attracting great talent and then what are you trying to do intentionally in the workplace, so that employees, want to stay with you. 157 00:21:51.120 --> 00:21:53.910 Jet's iPhone: Well, if someone has figured this out, please let me know. 158 00:21:56.070 --> 00:21:57.840 Paul Casey: you're supposed to have all the answers for. 159 00:21:59.850 --> 00:22:00.600 Jet's iPhone: Certainly. 160 00:22:00.690 --> 00:22:07.980 Jet's iPhone: Certainly, do not have all the answers in this area, but it is a pertinent question because we are in the hiring process right now. 161 00:22:07.980 --> 00:22:08.310 Paul Casey: For. 162 00:22:08.700 --> 00:22:10.170 Jet's iPhone: For two key positions. 163 00:22:11.580 --> 00:22:12.120 Jet's iPhone: and 164 00:22:14.040 --> 00:22:20.100 Jet's iPhone: This will be since i've been at the in the role here, probably the fourth or fifth person i've i've hired. 165 00:22:21.630 --> 00:22:27.030 Jet's iPhone: And what i've learned through that process is to manage expectations early. 166 00:22:28.680 --> 00:22:29.760 Jet's iPhone: it's really. 167 00:22:30.900 --> 00:22:34.620 Jet's iPhone: You know it's it's a it's a, you have the job description. 168 00:22:36.570 --> 00:22:52.050 Jet's iPhone: In front of you, and you know you put that out as as and post it and people are applying to it, and I think what's common in every single nonprofit job description i've ever read is the very last point additional duties as we acquire. 169 00:22:53.820 --> 00:22:55.800 Paul Casey: The most important one yeah. 170 00:22:55.890 --> 00:23:03.000 Jet's iPhone: which you know automatically I think this last hiring round I just took that last bullet and moved it to the top. 171 00:23:04.200 --> 00:23:04.620 Jet's iPhone: First. 172 00:23:04.680 --> 00:23:05.340 Jet's iPhone: first thing. 173 00:23:07.080 --> 00:23:16.740 Jet's iPhone: But, but it it it speaks to I think the bigger challenge of managing expectations, you know we are an affiliate. 174 00:23:17.880 --> 00:23:22.050 Jet's iPhone: Locally with about eight to 10 full time equivalent staff. 175 00:23:23.970 --> 00:23:32.070 Jet's iPhone: we're not large by any means and but we're not we're not the smallest in the state, but it means that we all wear multiple hats. 176 00:23:32.220 --> 00:23:43.380 Jet's iPhone: And we all do, different things, and as someone proves themselves, efficient and effective and in a in a capacity that we didn't expect well that's a new job for them, you know. 177 00:23:44.370 --> 00:23:45.150 Jet's iPhone: it's a. 178 00:23:45.270 --> 00:23:56.850 Jet's iPhone: it's it's but it's about for me it's about managing expectations, so that people realize that you know what we do isn't. 179 00:23:57.900 --> 00:24:15.600 Jet's iPhone: limited to our job descriptions that it, it has we all have a bigger role beyond our job description and so to not shy away from from what that means taking on responsibilities, you might not have expected to take on, but being able to do that graciously and. 180 00:24:16.650 --> 00:24:25.140 Jet's iPhone: and positively, you know that's that's important one of the things I think, for us, though, is a lot of people don't realize. 181 00:24:26.610 --> 00:24:28.920 Jet's iPhone: habitats connection to the faith community. 182 00:24:29.940 --> 00:24:30.900 Jet's iPhone: Our background. 183 00:24:31.950 --> 00:24:43.350 Jet's iPhone: In our very inception, was it with two two missionaries in a pastor in southern Georgia and that that aspect of our mission seeking to put god's love and action has. 184 00:24:43.920 --> 00:24:54.330 Jet's iPhone: permeated everything that we do, but I feel a lot of people don't realize that and so sometimes they come into the role and it's like oh I didn't know that this. 185 00:24:54.900 --> 00:25:05.460 Jet's iPhone: organization was like that and and and it, it can make some people uncomfortable if they're not prepared for it so that's that's one of those aspects of managing expectations, making sure. 186 00:25:05.850 --> 00:25:13.170 Jet's iPhone: That everybody that comes into the organization is clear on what we're about and what we do and why we do it it's. 187 00:25:13.680 --> 00:25:17.730 Jet's iPhone: it's certainly not to limit or isolate anybody, but. 188 00:25:18.930 --> 00:25:20.250 Jet's iPhone: it's one of those things where. 189 00:25:21.360 --> 00:25:26.580 Jet's iPhone: If everyone understands the job description and the mission fully. 190 00:25:27.750 --> 00:25:28.170 Jet's iPhone: Then. 191 00:25:29.760 --> 00:25:48.930 Jet's iPhone: If you want to be a part of the team then great there's a role for you, and if not, we hope that you find the role that the job or the organization that fits for you, better, but from the very beginning, from day one from when they the first interview starts there yeah. 192 00:25:48.960 --> 00:25:55.620 Paul Casey: being very clear with the why the vision, the mission, if you want to align with us we're going this direction. 193 00:25:56.160 --> 00:26:00.300 Paul Casey: Jim Collins always talked about getting the right seat people in the right seats on the on the bus. 194 00:26:00.840 --> 00:26:06.840 Paul Casey: So huge and I do a seminar on giving and receiving feedback constructively. 195 00:26:07.260 --> 00:26:20.340 Paul Casey: And I my definition of feedback is calibrating expectations, just two words so you talked about managing expectations, because that's where the conflict, usually happens on a team is I thought. 196 00:26:20.730 --> 00:26:35.550 Paul Casey: I was supposed to do this, you thought I was supposed to do this, and now we have a conflict so as a leader, if we can manage that make it as clear as possible and keep people updated along the way there's a good chance we're going to have less of that unnecessary conflict. 197 00:26:36.990 --> 00:26:47.370 Paul Casey: How do you feel about delegation jet is that a struggle for you, is it something that comes naturally any tips on delegation that you've learned, while you've been in the Leader chair. 198 00:26:47.970 --> 00:26:49.710 Jet's iPhone: I love telling people what to do. 199 00:26:51.300 --> 00:26:51.600 Paul Casey: Okay. 200 00:26:51.630 --> 00:26:52.890 Jet's iPhone: next question, not a problem. 201 00:26:56.190 --> 00:27:15.900 Jet's iPhone: Well, no it's it's it's I think it's something that I rely on quite a bit like I said we're a small staff, and we all have our job descriptions, or maybe we should say our job suggestions of like this is the idea that we all went books, but the flexibility to do other things. 202 00:27:17.220 --> 00:27:23.760 Jet's iPhone: means that I can I can assign tasks that come up rather randomly or unexpectedly. 203 00:27:24.780 --> 00:27:27.900 Jet's iPhone: To two people that I know that they'll get done. 204 00:27:30.690 --> 00:27:40.500 Jet's iPhone: One thing, though I I try to keep in mind, as I delegate anything is Am I delegating something that I wouldn't be willing to do myself. 205 00:27:42.540 --> 00:27:59.400 Jet's iPhone: And if I find that that's the case, then I I don't delegate that task, I hope that if you ever talked to any of my staff, they would say he's never asked me to do something that he hasn't done or been willing to do himself. 206 00:27:59.460 --> 00:28:00.570 Paul Casey: Yes, yes. 207 00:28:00.630 --> 00:28:09.690 Jet's iPhone: um, so I think, then, with that thought in mind, as I, as I delegate some sometimes I think people don't like to delegate because. 208 00:28:11.370 --> 00:28:20.610 Jet's iPhone: they're afraid that the task won't get done well, or to their standards and that's to me that's a communication problem, not. 209 00:28:21.090 --> 00:28:23.100 Jet's iPhone: A or Anna micromanaging problem. 210 00:28:23.280 --> 00:28:32.550 Jet's iPhone: If you have a staff that you trust and have experienced success with then it's no problem delegating things to them, because you know the job will get done well. 211 00:28:34.080 --> 00:28:41.490 Jet's iPhone: And if it doesn't then it was probably a communication error from my part so it's a learning point there another learning opportunity there. 212 00:28:41.880 --> 00:28:48.090 Paul Casey: yeah donation equals good I mean good communication is essential part of good delegation. 213 00:28:48.720 --> 00:29:04.080 Jet's iPhone: Right, but then for me to delegate, something I can confidently say i've done this, I know what you got to do like I can help you with it, but you got this you know it's it's a task that I. 214 00:29:05.550 --> 00:29:18.690 Jet's iPhone: I i've done and I i'm i'm not shirking the responsibility by giving it to you, but actually i'm still do that you can do this well so that's that's kind of the difference there feel. 215 00:29:19.830 --> 00:29:32.490 Jet's iPhone: When it comes to delegation is is really just being mindful of what i'm asking someone to do, and this is something that I wouldn't ask someone that I if it's something that I haven't done or wouldn't do myself and why am I, asking them to do it. 216 00:29:34.650 --> 00:29:38.010 Jet's iPhone: it's it's important, I think, to understand that about myself. 217 00:29:38.640 --> 00:29:45.390 Paul Casey: yeah that's delegation isn't dumping and that's what often people do and they're not willing to do it themselves so it's leading by example. 218 00:29:45.870 --> 00:29:57.510 Paul Casey: And being a servant leader, which you're illustrating with that so we're learning that about you jet and also that if you're proficient in your organization, we reward you with more work no just kidding. 219 00:30:00.210 --> 00:30:01.770 Paul Casey: The duties as assigned right. 220 00:30:02.700 --> 00:30:03.570 Jet's iPhone: Oh yeah I think. 221 00:30:04.590 --> 00:30:05.730 Jet's iPhone: that's true but. 222 00:30:07.170 --> 00:30:11.160 Jet's iPhone: you're responsible with with the little things you'll be possible with. 223 00:30:12.180 --> 00:30:14.820 Paul Casey: Oh it's so good, I think that's in the Bible somewhere. 224 00:30:15.810 --> 00:30:16.050 Jet's iPhone: that's. 225 00:30:16.290 --> 00:30:24.510 Paul Casey: Good that's good well Jeff Finally, what advice would you give to new leaders or anyone who wants to keep growing and gaining more influence. 226 00:30:30.300 --> 00:30:34.410 Jet's iPhone: wow I consider myself a new leader too so. 227 00:30:36.420 --> 00:30:40.020 Jet's iPhone: it's for me the answer to this is a little bit of the blind leading the blind. 228 00:30:41.010 --> 00:30:43.890 Paul Casey: From one leader to another one right or another yeah. 229 00:30:44.730 --> 00:30:45.660 Jet's iPhone: I, I think. 230 00:30:46.920 --> 00:30:49.320 Jet's iPhone: What comes to mind is focusing on your impact. 231 00:30:52.320 --> 00:30:53.880 Jet's iPhone: You know humility. 232 00:30:55.770 --> 00:31:02.550 Jet's iPhone: I think oftentimes humility is equated with meekness and when I when I think of focusing on my impact from a. 233 00:31:04.110 --> 00:31:07.920 Jet's iPhone: standpoint of humility, it means, am I doing everything that I like. 234 00:31:09.060 --> 00:31:18.870 Jet's iPhone: If you draw a circle on a piece of paper everything inside that circle as me what I can do what what I can achieve and my filling that circle completely. 235 00:31:19.050 --> 00:31:23.160 Jet's iPhone: that's still that's humility, I think, as. 236 00:31:23.700 --> 00:31:25.200 Jet's iPhone: I truly understand it. 237 00:31:25.620 --> 00:31:27.540 Jet's iPhone: oftentimes we think of meekness. 238 00:31:29.790 --> 00:31:44.490 Jet's iPhone: And connection to humility and so there's like are you focusing on your impact, are you are you focusing on what you can do and what you can achieve are you challenging yourself to make that circle bigger but still fill it completely. 239 00:31:45.600 --> 00:31:57.960 Jet's iPhone: When we start to focus on on things outside of that circle, you know that that then becomes I think arrogant and also starts to stretch us in ways that we're not ready. 240 00:31:59.790 --> 00:32:11.490 Jet's iPhone: And may not be able to handle so so focusing on your sphere of impact your circle of impact what you can do and how you can achieve it and do it well, I think, is really important. 241 00:32:12.570 --> 00:32:17.040 Jet's iPhone: and defining again those boundaries of what is inside and what is outside of that circle. 242 00:32:19.980 --> 00:32:21.840 Paul Casey: So good so good, I feel. 243 00:32:22.050 --> 00:32:24.390 Jet's iPhone: that's probably that's where I would start. 244 00:32:25.050 --> 00:32:40.680 Paul Casey: fill the circle and anything outside of that circle often becomes a worry to it could be arrogance like you said, but it can also be worried because it's out of my control or yeah it's not in its not in my sphere of influence so yeah. 245 00:32:40.770 --> 00:32:42.120 Paul Casey: I think that go ahead. 246 00:32:42.540 --> 00:32:45.180 Jet's iPhone: 111 thing that that comes from is. 247 00:32:46.230 --> 00:33:06.420 Jet's iPhone: My experience with habitat so far, you know we we focus on people who are we focused on helping families and individuals in the Community that fall between 30% and 60% area of media income medium area median income sorry I don't know why that was difficult for me to say, but we often. 248 00:33:07.920 --> 00:33:11.190 Jet's iPhone: Get lumped into the organizations that are working on housing. 249 00:33:12.930 --> 00:33:23.910 Jet's iPhone: Beyond that spectrum so particularly housing for homeless individuals experiencing immediately immediate need for housing and urgency. 250 00:33:24.960 --> 00:33:30.360 Jet's iPhone: And people coming out of transitional housing or started people needing transitional housing coming out of. 251 00:33:31.320 --> 00:33:52.290 Jet's iPhone: The prisons or recovery programs things like that nature everybody needs a place to live, everyone needs a place to call home habitat is best suited for people between 30 and 60 and up sometimes up to 80% higher median income, and we should be supportive of organizations that do others. 252 00:33:53.310 --> 00:33:56.670 Jet's iPhone: But it is not our responsibility to fix those problems. 253 00:33:56.790 -->

In my study. Overwhelmed by how Jesus does Love & Power… This is a short improvisation sermon I did on the spot and randomly decided to record on my iPhone (So don’t expect studio quality). “True power looks like getting on our knees and washing feet”. Yep…Smelly feet. Be blessed. See more at https://www.nathanforster.com or https://www.facebook.com/nathan.forster/

Heyang: For those who worship in the Apple Chapel, the iPhone 7 is the item of ultimate desire. But a company policy in central China’s Henan province goes as this: any employee who buys an iPhone 7 or iPhone 7 Plus gets the boot. Why is the company sticking its nose in the employee’s phone-purchasing decision? Guys, what’s going on here? Hongling: Well, according to a report by Henan based Hnr.cn or映像网, a notice was released by the company on Sept. 18 which reads “Our company forbids all employees from using or buying the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus. Whoever is found in violation of that rule will be immediately forced to resign”. The notice also called for employees to stop buying other U.S.- and Japan-made products, and to support domestic products instead. And also the company theory here is that “If we have some disposable income, and if conditions allow it, let’s use the money to take better care of our parents’ health. Let’s pay more attention to our kids’ growth, to the value of life and to the prosperity of our country.” So maybe instead of buying a phone I guess.Ryan: Yeah, I don’t know, I mean hahahah (Heyang: This is completely outrageous for you Ryan), ah, yeah. I think my eyeballs did a full rotation backwards in my skull when I read this, um and I think it’s—I mean I’m all about people loving their country, I think that’s great, but at the same time too, I think competition and buying the phone that you choose andspending the money that you work hard for, the way you want, not having to worry about losing your job, that’s some security everybody should have. And you know I always kind of been skeptical myself about the iPhone. I’ve had I think a four, and that’s about it, and it was a good phone. But by no means am I like, worshipping at the ‘Apple Chapel’, we are getting married at the ‘Apple Chapel’, I don’t know, people probably done it. But um, I don’t know. Heyang, actually so if you are in this company, you might be in trouble. Heyang: Ok, just say a little bit more about that why then. Ryan: Well, so Heyang has been, I think she’s been dealing with a relic phone for so many years. It was all derelict. She made it work, but um she finally decided to step out the cave a little bit, look outside, and suddenly someone dropped an iPhone 7 in her hand and she’s like ‘Technology!’. And she’s still learning how to use it, but it’s a great phone, and uh it’s really cool. She totally deserves it because she’s been using such an old phone for so long. But that being said, how would you feel? Heyang, you just got this phone, do you think this company is justified if you are working there? Getting rid of you because you got this phone.Heyang: And judging by how much I put out to purchase that phone. First of all, it’d better be good, I’m still trying to learn the functions right now, and it is not easy for a cave woman like myself, and further I haven’t gotten the previous one, so it’s a big leap for me. So you know, I’m very happy that I got this new thing. But, if my boss is judging me by the handbag I get, or my phone or what the lipstick that I’m wearing today, I feel why are you interfering with my personal business when I can delivery my A game at work, and I follow all other company rules. I’m a star employee, why does it matter what phone I get? And here I don't comprehend what the company’s explanation at all. I don't get it at all. Because it says it’s anti-Japanese aggression, well that’s apparently one of the explanations that you know you need to love your country more, you shouldn't be using foreign products especially given the history between China and Japan during the Second World War. And what’s up with the iPhone then? The iPhone is made by Americans and guess what during the II World War? We were close allies with the Americans, so judging by that logic, we have every right to use the iPhone it feels. So the logic does not hold, and what’s up with like being nice to your parents because you don't use an iPhone? So you don't use an iPhone, so you don't by an iPhone, you will spend that thousands of yuan on your parents instead? Who guarantees that? Too many loopholes in that thinking. So don't get it at all.Ryan: Yeah, you know I’ve been called idealistic before, and that’s ok, cause I like being idealistic. But at the same time, you know, I do understand there’s history between a lot of different countries in the world. But we often talked about how we are globalizing, and how we are all moving in a direction that is kind of like human beings are coming together, on so many fronts on what we buy, and what we like and how we do things. And I think there’s beauty in that but some people are scared. But at the same time, I think the future of humans in general, lies in us taking steps forward together? I think that doesn't mean not loving your country, but at the same time, not barring your employees from buying a phone based off of things that happened in the past. And I know it’s not the so distance in the past, but at the same time, we shouldn’t live in the past. I believe in a bright future, again idealistic, and everybody being able to buy that iphone they so desire. Heyang: Or whatever other phones you so desire. It’s up to you, why does the company have anything to do with this. And it’s sounds like the company could be very smart about grabbing public attention about this, because we’ve seen numerous stories that create controversy online, also a lot of backlash about emotionally black mailing people in ‘you have to’ supposedly love your country in some stipulated way by some stranger. Why does that make any sense to any people? Anyway, this kind of argument has also received a lot backlash online, despite supporters as well. So here, I think it’s a guarantee to talking point for people, and what better way is that to get a little bit more publicity for company even if it’s a negative one. Is that the case? Hongling: It is possible that they are just being very sneaky, but I’m very happy that I didn't mention the company’s name in our show (Heyang: Exactly). And also, what Heyang just said about emotionally black mailing people, there’s a thing that I was always trying to follow, trying really hard just by myself. Moral code is for yourself to follow, not for others. You are not using your moral code to regulate other people’s action. That is the first thing, and also, for those of you who think you can boycott like import products in a way to support your country, I have some figures for you. In 2015, the import from America to China cost is like 116 billion yuan, and the export is 482 billion, that is to say if everyone in China listens to you and tries to boycott things from America, it will cost our country like hundreds of billions of dollars or yuan. It’s just not the thing you wanna do. So stop being unreasonably patriotic, or you think you are loving your country, but actually, you are just making a very small-minded case here. Ryan: At the end of the day, buying an iPhone 7 doesn’t mean you don't love your country, it just means that you love apple products and you also love your country. And Niuhongling so eloquently well put that we live in a globalized economy, so if you think that just buying domestic products is going to benefit China, I don't think,Based off figures that’s true, so well put. Heyang: And also in a globalized age, when you’re if you’re trying to boycott some of these foreign brands. They are often manufactured in China, and think about the millions of migrant workers that work their heart out, sweating in those factories to put that phone together, are you boycotting against your fellow compatriots? That’s a question for you.
