Sports and business are alike in so many ways. A lot of analogies are formed between the two because of it. For instance, sports teams require a clear vision, mission, goals, and strategies among others if they want success and that is the same way with businesses that we build and manage. But even with all their similarities, they differ in the way they are hitting their goals as most businesses, if not all, are struggling with producing the results they want.  In today's episode, Jeremy Macliver and I delve into where the difference lies, and what can be done about it .We also talk about Jeremy's professional experience and what his business offers to entrepreneurs, specifically tradies. Then, we tackle and point-out the similarities of a sports and business team and how each element builds upon the other towards success.

Jeremy Macliver has led multiple companies in the construction, automotive, and service industries. Under his leadership, companies have doubled in size, attracted top talent, increased profitability, and won Best Places to Work. In this episode, Jeremy shares his insights on how leadership teams can reignite the passion of their employees, and guide them through the process of building a stable, long-lasting organization accountable to their vision. Check out these episode highlights: 01:16 – Jeremy's ideal client: "I'm looking for those blue-collar companies that are growth-oriented, results-focused, that are more afraid of the status quo than they are of change. So, they're willing to change, do whatever they need to, but they're also willing to be open, honest, and vulnerable with their team, their leadership team. Typically, between 10 and 250 employees, and just want business to be easier than it is." 02:29 – Problem Jeremy helps solve: "I help solve accountability, clarity and getting the team aligned on where they're actually going. And making sure that everybody in the organization is crystal clear on that, and how they affect it. That's the problem that I solve." 02:56 – Typical symptoms that clients do before reaching out to Jeremy: "First of all, one, profit can be low, or customer satisfaction can be low. And it's typically because there's just, they feel stuck, they keep trying everything, nothing's working. They feel like they've hit a wall. Things are harder than they should be, and actually sometimes wondering, 'Does the business own me or do I own the business?' And so, that's what they're feeling at the time that they're ready to implement what we got." 04:01 – Common mistakes that people make before they find Jeremy's solution: "Probably the biggest mistake that they make is really becoming vulnerable with their team. Sometimes they'll ask for input and their actions and the way they respond causes that to be squashed. So, they ask for it, and then they react in a way that no one wants to give it." 04:53 – Jeremy's Valuable Free Action(VFA): "Yeah. So, if they asked three questions to their direct reports, what should we start doing, what should we stop doing, or what should we keep doing?And don't respond to them positively, or negatively, just seek to really understand all three of those." 05:51 – Jeremy's Valuable Free Resource (VFR): Checkout Jeremy's Book: https://bluecollarculture.com/unmasked/ 05:55 – Q: Why did I write the book, "Unmasked," when there's already a book that explains what I do? A: So, I wrote the book, "Unmasked," because if you think about a sales call, we're always trying to get past the gatekeeper. Because that's where we're going to get the close. Yet, so often, when we're building a team, we don't think of the interview process, is the gatekeeper that's going to protect the team that we're trying to build? And so, I put a special emphasis on how do we let people in, or make sure that people don't come in, to build the right team. I found that that was a missing piece in it all.

They may not be seen as “hip” as the big tech companies by the business press or popular culture, but blue-collar businesses truly are the backbone of the U.S. economy. Inspired by their blue-collar backgrounds, Jeremy Macliver and Ryan Englin, the hosts of the Blue Collar Culture Podcast, are on a mission to help blue-collar businesses stand out from their competition and get the people they need on their team to thrive. Blue collar definitely includes typical construction type trades. But Jeremy and Ryan include other industries in the definition, such as companies that have a lot of frontline, hourly employees in manufacturing, IT, and more. Upcoming guests include an outsourcing expert who finds top employees in unlikely places, a staffing consultant who says good hiring is a “group effort,” and more. Tune in to find out…
