In Nigeria, tens of millions of people live without access to reliable power. Utibe Bassey grew up in Lagos, and knows what it's like to not have electricity to perform simple daily tasks. When she moved to the United States as a teen, she didn't think much about electric utilities. But she did think about how managers treat employees – a thought spurred by an unfortunate instance she witnessed while working at a fast food chain. Ever since then, Utibe has refined her personal philosophy, “Love as a KPI,” which prioritizes kindness and human connection in the workplace. As we prepare for our season six launch, we bring you one of our favorite episodes from season three of With Great Power. In this rerun episode, Utibe tells Brad about how she puts her personal philosophy to work at Dominion Energy, where she is vice president of customer experience. She also talks about what it means to work in the power industry, having lived without access to reliable power in her youth.  Credits: Hosted by Brad Langley. Produced by Erin Hardick.

Climamarket non è "solo" un e-commerce: è la dimostrazione che quando un'azienda parte da una filiera reale, la accorcia e la ricompone intorno al cliente, il digitale diventa moltiplicatore di valore, non vetrina di prezzo. La storia raccontata ai microfoni di Radio Next da Emanuele Scilanga, direttore generale di E-Globe S.p.A., è istruttiva per chiunque operi in mercati maturi e ultra-competitivi come la climatizzazione e il riscaldamento. Il punto di svolta? Portare online non soltanto il catalogo ma la promessa del negozio fisico: consulenza, trasparenza, installazione chiavi in mano. Siamo davvero pronti a misurare il nostro e-commerce sulla qualità del servizio, e non sullo sconto in homepage? Per E-Globe la risposta è sì, perché il cliente non cerca un "prodotto" di efficientamento energetico: cerca una soluzione che funzioni, sia installata a regola d'arte e arrivi nei tempi che la vita di oggi impone. Da qui l'impegno a garantire in Italia la consegna con installazione in cinque o sei giorni lavorativi "con un click": una value proposition semplice da capire, difficile da replicare senza un'organizzazione end-to-end e una rete di partner davvero selezionata. Dietro c'è una scelta strategica chiara: spostarsi dalla pura distribuzione al servizio completo, evitando la trappola dei marketplace dove si compete solo sul prezzo. È un messaggio a tutti i brand e i retailer che fanno fatica a difendere margini e identità: la differenza non la fa l'algoritmo di bidding, la fanno la consulenza e l'esecuzione. Quali processi e competenze servono per sostenere questa promessa? In primo luogo una rete di installatori costruita negli anni, qualificata su sicurezza e standard operativi, e gestita come asset critico, non come "ultimo miglio" da improvvisare. La selezione è progressiva: si parte "larghi" e si ottimizza, con criteri oggettivi di qualità e affidabilità. Così l'azienda può dire al professionista di Pescara (o di Aosta): "domani ti affido un cliente, tu installa e rispetta il percorso di qualità; al resto pensiamo noi". È un capovolgimento rispetto al modello tradizionale: il partner non deve fare CRM o generazione di lead, perché la piattaforma si prende carico di orchestrare domanda, logistica, compliance. Un invito a tanti operatori B2B italiani: siete disposti a portare in casa vostra il "pezzo di servizio" dove nasce il valore?Secondo pilastro: la trasparenza. Prezzi, condizioni, tempi, responsabilità. In un settore affollato, la frizione informativa è spesso la vera barriera all'acquisto. Rendere visibile ciò che normalmente è opaco-dal preventivo all'installazione-non è un vezzo di UX, è una leva commerciale. Ogni manager e-commerce dovrebbe chiedersi: quanta incertezza sto scaricando sul cliente? Posso trasformarla in promessa contrattuale e, quindi, in vantaggio competitivo?Terzo pilastro: il capitale. La scelta di quotarsi in Borsa non è stata un esercizio di immagine: ha abilitato raccolta di risorse per un piano industriale più ambizioso, ha consolidato la credibilità verso partner e fornitori e ha reso possibili operazioni straordinarie, come l'acquisizione della spagnola Bayona-oggi Climamarket Europe-che ha accelerato il posizionamento internazionale. È una lezione utile per chi scala dal regionale al nazionale (e oltre): il passaggio non si fa solo aumentando il budget media, ma costruendo solide fondamenta finanziarie e istituzionali. Ci chiediamo spesso se "il digitale" basti a crescere: questa esperienza dice che il digitale va innestato su scelte corporate-governance, finanza, M&A-coerenti con l'ambizione. Quarto pilastro: il talento. La conversazione scardina un luogo comune duro a morire-il digitale è "solo" Milano-e mette al centro la leva più sottovalutata delle imprese del Sud: le competenze che ci sono, che possono rientrare, e che si fidelizzano quando l'azienda dà voce, responsabilità e traiettorie di crescita. Non è retorica: se la piattaforma digitale consente di vendere e servire clienti ovunque, allora l'organizzazione può attrarre profili ovunque e riportare a casa professionalità emigrate, a patto di offrire un progetto credibile, processi chiari e un ambiente dove le persone contano davvero. La domanda da manager è brutale: stiamo ripensando ruoli, formazione e percorsi per far sì che i team periferici siano centrali? O continuiamo a cercare profili "copy-paste" nel raggio di tre fermate di metro?C'è poi un messaggio operativo destinato a PMI e retail tradizionali: "credere" nel digitale significa dotarsi di una presenza che accompagni ogni fase del customer journey, anche quando l'acquisto si chiude nel negozio fisico. Oggi, con l'avvento dell'intelligenza artificiale conversazionale, la discoverability non passa solo dal motore di ricerca, ma da risposte che gli utenti ottengono in chat. Questo impone contenuti chiari e strutturati, schede prodotto ricche, politiche di prezzo leggibili, FAQ utili, e soprattutto una logistica del servizio (installazione, resi, manutenzione) disegnata per essere promessa e mantenuta. Siamo pronti a misurare KPI che contano davvero-lead to install, time-to-comfort, NPS post-intervento-invece di fermarci al CTR della campagna?Il caso Climamarket suggerisce anche un'architettura di crescita per chi opera in settori "heavy": 1) posizionamento sul valore totale della soluzione, non sul prezzo del singolo componente; 2) orchestrazione di partner locali con standard condivisi e incentivi corretti; 3) contratti e processi che rendano misurabile la promessa (tempi, sicurezza, qualità); 4) uso della leva finanziaria per scalare mercati e consolidare brand; 5) cultura organizzativa che metta le persone-clienti e team-al centro. È un framework replicabile in molti comparti, dall'arredo bagno alle caldaie fino all'home improvement: ovunque l'installazione sia parte integrante dell'esperienza, l'e-commerce di prodotto che diventa e-commerce di soluzione crea barriere all'entrata più solide di qualsiasi sconto.Infine, una riflessione di governance digitale: la "libertà dell'utente" evocata da Scilanga non è uno slogan, è design del servizio. Vuol dire poter scegliere tempi, modalità, trasparenza sul prezzo, canali di supporto. Per ottenerla, l'azienda deve rinunciare a un po' di controllo interno-aprire API organizzative, standardizzare flussi, accettare la disciplina della misurazione-per guadagnare fiducia esterna. È un cambio di mentalità che separa chi "fa e-commerce" da chi costruisce piattaforme di business. La domanda che resta sul tavolo, per tutti: stiamo progettando i nostri canali digitali come se dovessimo installare-non solo vendere-ciò che promettiamo? Perché è lì, nel momento della verità, che si vince la partita.

"A volte qualcuno nella tua vita ti fa sentire sbagliato."Inizia così il racconto incredibile di Andrea Colombi, partito da una sensazione di "irritazione" e una "fame" incredibile, e arrivato oggi a definire il suo ruolo di Country Manager in Yamaha come "il lavoro più bello del mondo".In questo episodio dell'1% Podcast, Andrea ci porta dentro il suo viaggio ventennale: da analista assunto nel 2006, con il solo bisogno "che qualcuno credesse in lui", a leader di una filiale da cui dipendono 2.000 famiglie. È una masterclass sulla leadership umana, dove i KPI e i fatturati "non sono l'obiettivo, ma la conseguenza" di quello che fai.Il suo percorso di consapevolezza inizia con un viaggio a Barcellona, il momento esatto in cui ha capito di "andare bene così" e ha smesso di sentirsi "sbagliato". Questa consapevolezza lo ha portato a capire che per guidare servono più soft skill che hard skill: saper leggere un bilancio è la base, ma non serve a nulla se non è "connesso" dall'empatia.Andrea ci offre una visione unica sul mercato, sfatando il mito della "crisi": ci svela, infatti, che il mercato delle moto è al suo picco massimo da 15 anni. Parliamo anche dell'impatto di icone come Valentino Rossi e di come abbia trasformato la MotoGP in un fenomeno mainstream, e di come il DNA racing di Yamaha sia nato vincendo la prima gara solo 10 giorni dopo la fondazione nel 1955.Questa è una storia che parla di innovazione, di coraggio (che non sempre coincide con l'opportunità) e di come connettere i numeri ai valori.Guarda l'episodio completo per scoprire la storia di Andrea Colombi!

In today's episode, Tom Bilyeu and Drew dive headfirst into America's current political and economic landscape, unpacking the recent “blue wave” of Democratic wins—including Zoran Mamdani's victory in NYC—and what it signals for the future of governance, policy, and the middle class. The conversation kicks off with heated reflections on the consequences of political shifts, examining the impact of progressive policies, the perennial debate over wealth and poverty, and the mechanics of economic systems that are driving so much division. Drew shares candid thoughts on why some policies, while well-intentioned, might be leading us toward more hardship, especially for the working class—all while painting vivid analogies connecting personal growth, historical lessons, and even Greek myths to our current reality. From government shutdowns and fiscal responsibility to the behind-the-scenes drama of Congress and power plays among billionaires, no stone is left unturned. The episode even touches on breaking news like the UPS cargo plane disaster, the precarious state of America's air travel infrastructure, and technological leaps with wireless brain implants, before rounding out with world affairs like Tommy Robinson's acquittal in the UK. Join Tom Bilyeu and Drew as they challenge conventional wisdom, debate the path forward, and highlight why cultivating a thriving middle class may just be the greatest KPI for America's future.

Kiera shows listeners multiple places in life where there's likely opportunity for more balance, freedom, play, and ease by: Maximizing the hours you already work. Protecting your time like a CEO. Empowering your team to own their roles. Episode resources: Subscribe to The Dental A-Team podcast Schedule a Practice Assessment Leave us a review Transcript: Kiera Dent (00:00) Hello, Dental A Team listeners, this is Kiera and I am so excited because I love this topic and I hate this topic and it's such a great one and all of you are gonna be so excited about it and it's work-life balance without sacrificing production. Yep, you better believe that it is true and I'm here to show you today how you can do this.   but I really hate this terminology of work-life balance. So if you're new to the Dental A Team, welcome, hello. I'm so excited to have you here. If you've been here with us for a long time, high five, hugs. I'm so grateful you've been a part of this journey and I'm so excited to share with you tips, tricks. ⁓ And again, remember, sometimes the greatest form of learning is remembering what you already know. So these might be tips that you've heard before, but hopefully today it hits you differently because no man who's walked through a river is ever the same man because he...   is not the same man and the river is not the same river. So you today, you're not the same person, you're not the same practice, you're not the same scenario. So wherever you are, I'm super excited for you to figure out how to get this like balance and bliss in your life. And I hope you're ready for it. So the reality is like, I used to feel, and I don't know where this came from, like, why do we feel that we always have to like grind like our nose to the brim? Like we have to work so hard and we have to just grind so hard to get to success.   that like you just hate your life. Like why is it, why is it this like busyness and this exhaustiveness and this tired to be successful? Like why, where? And so I do believe that you can have balance and performance that can coexist, that you can be productive and balanced. And so the reality is we're going to walk through some of these pieces for you to help you see where could I maybe strike a little more balance, a little more freedom, a little more play, a little more ease in my life.   And that's maybe the better term of like work-life balance is more ease. It's more flow. It's more, I think just intentional. And how can I do that? So you guys, I love this. think that you should be something that I'm really passionate about is work and life. I'm very passionate about you being the best version of yourself in your life. That way you can show up as the best version of yourself for work. do not believe, Tiff and I talk about this all the time. Like outside of Dental A Team public's eye.   all the time about how work and life are not separate. It's like we think about these two halves and it's like, no, it's one. You're one person. You're going through this and it's like, well, here's half of me that's work. Here's half of me that's life. And it's like, no, no, no, no, no. How can I, Kiera, be the best version of myself that like feels balanced or ease or flow or calm or any of those things? Cause balance to me, don't love. Balance feels like I've got to like have my weight in front of me be equal.   ⁓ But flow to me is like a river flows and sometimes it's faster and sometimes it's slower and all of that's correct. And so this is something where for you to be the best version of yourself, for you to still be productive at the office while being the best version of you, ⁓ I think is what today's podcast will be about. So this is something where it's like, if you feel you are stretched thin or overwhelmed or you don't know how to produce without overworking and if you stop or slow down and get off the hamster, well, you're afraid that it's all gonna crash and burn. Well, hi, I'm Kiera.   I'm your personal therapist today ⁓ and I'm here to help you realize that that's not the reality, that there's a better, easier way to do it. And I'm here to give you a couple of quick steps that hopefully will take you through that ⁓ because I was there, I've seen offices do it and we've helped offices, hundreds, like literally hundreds and thousands of offices get out of that hamster will.   and into the flow that they were looking for. Tiff said it once and she was like, imagine Phoenix traffic. If you've never been to Phoenix, we'll do Chicago traffic, we'll do Texas traffic. Like you name it, big city traffic. She's like, just imagine if you're sitting there and this is like your life and you're sitting there and you're in this bumper to bumper traffic. And then all of a sudden you see that like better than even like an HOV or carpool lane. Like there's just like the way it strikes me like a lucky charm. Like it's like, ah, like the angels are singing. It's this gold path over there or like the yellow brick road. And you're like,   say, well, like I could get out of this nonsense over onto that lane. And like everybody, there's no traffic. There's no slowing down. It is just this easy breezy, like truly like, hope you guys can visualize this like golden path road with gold light over it. And everybody on that road is just so happy. And yet you're sitting here hating your life because you're sitting in all this nonsense traffic. Well, that's kind of hopefully how this feels of like, let's teach you how to get over into that.   that lane that you didn't even know existed today and give you some tangible tips to that. So number one is going to be maximize the hours that you already work. So let's have it like, ⁓ we did this awesome thing ⁓ at a conference and ⁓ we're talking about this and this is so fascinating to me, okay? So in a given week, there's 24 hours in a day. Yes, everybody following? And there's seven hours or seven days in a week, okay?   So if we take that, I love some good numbers, I love some good math. So 24 hours in a day, and we have seven days in a week, that's 168 hours, all right, in a given week, okay? So now, let's say I'm gonna be really generous to you. We know, let's say, let's just, mean, Dennis, let's give you, like, we're gonna work 40 hours in a week. You might say I work more than that, that's okay. I'm just gonna subtract 40 right now, okay? So that leaves us with 128 hours in a week.   Now you're like, well, Kiera, we also have to sleep. I got you. I'm going to be real generous and I'm going to give you eight hours of sleep times seven days. That's 56 hours. None of you are out there probably sleeping eight hours. As you should be prioritizing this, I do not want to be scrimping on sleep because I think sleep is one of the most important things you can do for yourself. So we have 128 hours after the 40 hour work week. We've got 56 hours of sleep minus 128. That leaves us with 72 freaking hours a week. And my question is, what are you doing with those hours?   Now you might say, Carrie works 60 hours. Fantastic, you still have 52 hours if you're working a 60 hour work week, which I hope and pray you're not working 60 hours. So let's get it to where maybe I don't wanna be working even 40 hours and I would prefer to even work 30 hours. Well then if I gave you 30 hours, you're up to 82 hours a week of extra time. And people are like, Carrie, I don't have time, I don't have time. 72 hours, 72 in a week outside of sleeping and work.   Now you're like, well, I've got to make dinner and I've got the kids fine go for it, but there's still so many hours. And I, when I heard this, I was like, yeah, what am I doing with those 72 hours? Like, all right. So maybe I could do like an hour of workout every day. All right. So like, let me just put out like seven hours there. Like, okay, 72. Let's just take this down 72 minus seven hours. All right. I'm down to 65 hours. Well, you know, I've got to like, hang out with my kids. Like we're at soccer, we're at camp. Like that takes, okay. Count it up. How many hours? Like drive time and all of that.   Let's give you like, okay, shoot, you're at 15 hours a week, which honestly, I guarantee you're not putting 15 hours of soccer and camp and all that in a given week. Maybe you are, but honestly, that's a lot. That's like two full days of work plus some extra time. So if we're at that, you're still at 50 hours and we're not scrimping sleep. We're not scrimping work. We're not scrimping kid time. We gave you an hour of workout every single day.   something to think about. So in this step one, to be able to have this balance or flow or best version of you is to maximize the hours you already have. So ⁓ me and Chad GPT, I named her Wanda. I hang out with Wanda all the time and I'm like, all right, you're the most brilliant scheduler of all time. You're the most productive business coach. Like you teach me how to maximize my time. And Wanda gives me some really good things. And it was interesting because I started looking like I realized   that I was spending an extra 30 minutes going to the gym every single day with how far away it was. And I was like, all right, well then that actually adds up. What if I just bought a home gym? Like there are solutions. What if I got weights, free weights? have my personal trainer. She could create some. So I go to the gym X amount of days and I work from home X amount of days. Could that help out? Like that would give me some time back in there. And so it's really like, how can you maximize the hours that you already have in your life to then maybe have a bit more fun?   Like I don't want all scheduled. I want fun. I want to hang out with Jason. I want to be able to like you guys I used to not watch TV at all because I felt like it was an absolute waste of time because I wasn't making money and I wasn't doing something productive. Literally I was like, nope, this is an absolute waste of time. And I'm like, but I like to watch a show and laugh with my husband. I like to be able to go hot tibbing at night with my husband. I love to go for walks with my husband. I love to go hiking. I love to spend time with my parents and I want to do it.   without guilt. It's like being able to like eat all the ice cream that you could ever want to eat without gaining any weight or whatever your favorite thing is that you're like, I just wish I could eat all that, not worry about the calories. Well, this is how you can have un like guilt free time for yourself, guilt free time with family, guilt free time with friends, because we have like, you break it down. I guarantee you, we're still going to find hours for you. So how can we better use it? And then what's awesome is when I work with offices, I'm like, sweet.   You only working four days a week? Fantastic, let's go for it. Let me do 32 hours a week. Beautiful. And you know what's crazy is I usually can help them produce the same as they were producing in five days and four days and then they're able to get a whole day back in their world. Or they're like, I have nowhere I could ever put admin time in. And I'm like, sweet, challenge accepted. How much time do you want? Two hours a week, three hours a week? Great, I'm gonna block it on Wednesdays from eight to 12.   I'm taking four hours out and I'm gonna show you how we can build a schedule that will produce more than you're making right now and give you the four hours of admin time so you don't have to take this home with you. So we block schedule, we prioritize, we put things in place. You literally like, we eliminate gaps, we're proactive, we ⁓ maximize our time and our schedule, we have our morning huddles to align our teams, everybody chart preps, we look through what we need to have. We're all doing the pieces and we're maximizing our time that we already have. Front office team members, seriously like.   Don't insurance verify every single person like in order call Delta Dental and get all of them done and then all your MetLife's and all your Etna's so we're not spending time like wastefully and you can maximize this and I will tell you when doctors shift like this and teams shift like this, we're talking 10, 20, 30, 40, a hundred grand extra a month that we're able to squeeze in the juice with no extra time. Usually even less time. I don't want more hours. I don't want more work for teams. I want less work and more efficiency.   So that way you have guilt free time with family. You have guilt free time on vacations. You have fun being able to take off and not stress about it. So this is where it's like, let's maximize the hour. So the call to action on this is, I want you to audit your current schedule at work and figure out where are we losing production and time and how can we just like, literally I'm talking on one change. Kind of like with FedEx or with, I don't remember what airline it was, but FedEx drivers found out if they took right hand turns at stoplights in the US, they can actually cut down the hours and cut down the routes and actually get more time and.   more efficient packages delivered to all the people. That's the type of like small little shift that we're looking for. Just one little change and then look at it in your personal life. Are we scrolling in doomsday scrolling? Are we spending time? I don't know, audit your day, but it's wild when I'm like, I gave you so much time and there's still 50 hours in a day, like a week. What are you doing there? Like, Kiera, I go to church. Great, put it in there. Kiera, I do community service. Great, put it in there.   I'm not kidding. When you look at it, it's because we're not efficient with our time and we don't schedule our time. And I want you to have breaks in there where there's nothing time in there too. But what's wild is when you do this, you'll realize there's so much more time. And if you're effective and efficient with this, you'll see that you actually can get more done with less time, less energy, and be more happy and have that flow, that work-life balance just by maximizing the hours you already have. Next up, number two is protect your time like a CEO. I want you to be so rock solid on this because we have to have like CEO time.   So this is what I was talking about. You've got to protect your admin working CEO time like a boss. And you've got to actually do high productive work there. So for me, it's called Deep Work Time. It's by Cal Newport. You can read the book. I'm like absolutely non-negotiable. This is when I'm working on the business. And it's wild because I'm always like, there's so many screaming problems that come at you, but you have to say no. Discipline equals freedom here. You've got to stick to your cutoff time. I'm out the door at 5.30. Go, leave, be done.   We don't need to constantly run over because what we do is we teach ourselves that what we say of our boundaries or what we say of our commitments don't matter. Stop lying to yourself and start protecting your time. Start putting you first. Like if you say, I'm gonna be out at 530, be out at 530. If you say, I'm gonna go to dinner, go to dinner. If you say, I'm gonna work out, work out, but don't go lofty, go small. Start small, train yourself that you can trust yourself and then get bigger and better and better. And what's wild is when offices do this, when doctors like,   Truly, my most elite doctors do this. The ones that produce the most have the best family time. And I'm talking like, there's a doctor that I know. He told me, said, Kiera, we've done a lot. They own six practices. He's got like crazy amounts of success. They're going for it. ⁓ Tons of kids, amazing relationship with his spouse. And he said, Kiera, my year working with you was the most transformational, inspirational year of my entire life. And I take that as one of the biggest compliments because this person was so efficient and effective.   And yet we were able to find ways to fix their time, maximize their time, buy back their time, protect their time, make sure all the things that they want to do as a human and as a business owner, they were able to get there. This doctor is celebrating their first day out of the chair and being a true CEO. It didn't happen overnight, but these are things of like, you have better clarity, you're better as a business owner, you're better as a spouse, you're better as a mother, father, you have more time to work out for yourself, but it's like...   being very disciplined, this is the secret. People are like, Kiera, what's the secret? This is it. They protect their time and they act like the CEO that they are. And then number three is your team, empower them, help them to be like truly owning their role. So you've got to set up and have it to where there's clear roles and definitions of what each person does. They have their KPI and their number that they own and you train them to lead and come with solutions. I have a three solution rule. If you've got a problem, you've got to create at least three solutions for it, one of which can't cost money.   So that way they're coming with solutions, they're thinking of solutions. They're empowered so things don't come to me. ⁓ There's the book with the one minute manager, I think. ⁓ It's about the monkeys on your back. I think about this all the time. How many times do my team members come to me and put their monkey and their problem on my back? And I'm like, yeah, give it to me. I've got it. I'll just solve the problems because I'm Wonder Woman over here. But you told me you actually want to stress free. You want more work life balance, but you don't want to cut your production. We'll start empowering your team to actually be the team that they're meant to be. And team members rise up.   Rise up, solve the problems. This is for you. Like we have a culture of ownership. Ownership is one of our core values. And honestly, I shout that core value out so hard every single week on our core value shout outs because I want our team to know that that's one of the top things that I look for. Our team members that own their role, own their KPI, find the solutions. Because guess what? Then I'm able to do my job and my job as a CEO. Your job as a CEO. And I also want to be an amazing wife. I want to be an amazing sister. I want to be an amazing family member.   I wanna do all those things. I wanna show the best for myself. I wanna work out. I wanna be this amazingly fit, ripped, super energetic, 95 year old woman in my life with cotton candy, pink hair. Like that's the vision of Kiera in the future. What's your vision of the future and how do you do this? And what's wild about this is when you empower your team members, you give them clarity of what they need to do, team members now can focus on what they need to do and they can be more efficient in their time. Tiff and I talk all the time about how she's the efficiency queen and how like,   I hope she never dies before me. And if she does, it will say efficiency queen on her headstone because literally we're able to do so much more with less time because we have the team using it. So doctors before you even, and office managers before you even think about putting something in your calendar, ask yourself, am I really the best person who needs to do this task? Or can someone else do it just as good, if not better than I can and delegate it out.   I look at my calendar all the time and I'm like, that could go to Tiff, this could go to Britt, this could go to Shelbi, this could go to this person. Like all these people are better, more equipped and have the time to do it. And then they should do the same thing with their schedules as well. So when you have this, I want you all, every single team member to look at our schedules and see, is this something that a team member could own? Is this really who should be doing it? Are our lines clean? Do we have clear job descriptions, clear KPIs? This way it's not all happening for me. So when you look at this, you see the flow of number one, I'm using the time I already have.   Number two, I'm thinking like a CEO and I'm actually maximizing the hours working on the business. And then number three, I have a team that's fully capable. They're not dependent on me. You have, we broke down the math. guys, the math is there. What are you doing with your time? This is how you have guilt free fun. Like I want you to just think like eating like a big giant scoop of your favorite dessert or whatever your favorite thing is. You're, you're, you're indulgent. And I want you to think of that as your time. Like I'm just taking this big old scoop of like   delicious ice cream, no calories, guilt free of your lifetime, of the time that you get to have your life. Your life is all mixed up of so many pieces. You've got work, you've got family, you've got schedules, you've got appointments. This is how you have guilt free time. This is how you're able to have that flow. This is how you're able to have the balance or whatever it is for you. It's not passive, it's built. It's not passive, it's built. And you would honestly do this while growing your business.   while like all the different things that you're doing, you can have this. And this is something I'm obsessed about. We did this at our last mastermind and it was so fun for me to like show them like, what are we doing with our time and how can we better maximize, squeeze the juice out and have more guilt free fun time of whatever we want to do. This is how you have hobbies. This is how you expand as a human. This is how you read books for fun. This is how you get gardening or biking or surfing or whatever it is that you want. This is how you get more time with your family, more time for yourself is by actually doing these three things. So   You honestly became a practice owner for freedom. It's my hunch. You wanted to run the business how you wanted. You want to have things with the team. And so let's make sure that you're not fatigued out, that you're burnt out, but you actually get that freedom that you wanted when you built the practice. Like let's get you there. That's the ultimate goal. Let's help you see where you could like maximize your time. Let's help your team maximize their time because sometimes we don't even know what we could be doing better because we're just, this is all we know. So let's be smarter. Let's reach up.   Let's ask for the help and let's get the freedom and the fun and the joy that we know we're meant to have. So this is where we're at. This is where I want you to just realize like, where am I at? You're at a crossroad. Do you want to continue down the path you're going or do you want to get into that fast lane over there that you're sitting in bumper to bumper traffic and you're like, there actually is that magical, glorious, gold paid route. Like honestly, I hope our marketing team like, please marketing team make this Vividial.   Put it on social media. There is like literally I see like all the lines like we got like ten lines of traffic We're sitting there and then it's like ⁓ like the angels are singing over there Like are you gonna continue to sit in this bumper to bumper bag? Yep I'm gonna just keep doing it my way or are you going to venture over? Navigate through the traffic across ten lanes of traffic to get over to that magical Lane that can be yours the questions yours the forks in the road literally we're in a road like that was a great analogy unintended   The forks in the road, like you are here, you're at a pivotal spot, the door is open, you can choose to do it differently. Let's do it. You deserve it. Reach out, hello, at the W-H-U dot com or stay in bumper to bumper traffic. Both are fine. There's no judgment on either side. I just want to let you know that that magical lane is incredible. Life over there is happy. Life over there is not stressed. Life over there still does with issues, but life over there deals with issues in stride.   Life over there has a team that's able to run the practice whether you're there or not. Life over there empowers their leaders. Life over there allows you to have a life on your terms. Life over there allows you to show up for your family the way you want. Life over there allows you to work out the way you want. Life over there has you sleeping better. Life over there has you not stress out every single day of every single hour. Life over there truly is flying through traffic because there's another lane over there. And I hope you choose you and I hope you choose the easier path.   and reach out Hello@TheDentalATeam.com if we can help you, because I'd love to.

因為跟哲維聊天， 讓我回想起最初辦讀書會的日子， 那時我跟培祐辦實體讀書會。 採取的方式是， 線上報名，現場繳費， 你知道嗎？那可刺激了！ 因為你永遠不知道當天， 到底會有幾位聽眾如期出席。 有時候晚上下雨， 我們就知道不妙， 因為大雨會澆熄 很多人前往的動力。 所以每次來到現場， 都像在開驚喜包一樣， 聽眾永遠是未知數。 後來因為疫情， 我們改採線上讀書會， 實體讀書會成了陳年往事。 ─ 哲維是《高能量溝通》的作者， 他跟我一樣， 熱愛閱讀，讀到好書， 就迫不及待想說給別人聽。 他也開過實體讀書會， 這一開，就是300場， 這其中自然有許多故事。 有次讀書會， 他看見一位學員， 感覺很害羞， 不太敢跟別人做交流。 利用中場休息時間， 哲維會跑去跟學員們聊聊天， 當來到那位害羞學員面前時， 哲維問了一句：「你還好嗎？」 學員愣住， 然後一臉快哭出了， 嚇得哲維驚慌失措， 想說：「是不是我書說得太爛了？」 ─ 後來， 那位學員私下傳訊給哲維， 告訴他真正的原因。 原來， 這位學員飽受情緒困擾， 身邊的人不太能接受， 直到來到哲維的讀書會， 聽著哲維的說書。 他感受到自己， 彷彿被接住了， 他覺得哲維是「用生命影響生命」。 就這六個字， 堅定了哲維說書的信念。 ─ 因為在辦讀書會的過程， 他也面對不少的天人交戰， 有時招生不順， 連場地費都不夠付。 再加上哲維 還得從台中搭高鐵上來， 他也猶豫過要不要乾脆取消算了。 但此時， 他想起那位學員， 想起用生命影響生命。 哲維告訴自己， 如果我取消了， 那對報名的學員怎麼辦。 也許我的出席， 得倒貼幾百塊， 但如果能夠影響哪怕是一個聽眾， 我人生的KPI就增加了。 ─ 這就是哲維， 把源源不絕的能量， 帶給身邊的人，樂此不疲。 哲維的故事， 不禁讓我思考， 我們要把什麼當作人生的KPI呢？ 很多人選擇金錢和權力， 最終陷入難以自拔的迴圈； 但哲維選擇了利他， 因此擁抱了幸福的人生。 ─ ❤️臉書「梁哲維」｜ https://www.facebook.com/s210428

In this Healthy Mind, Healthy Life episode, we cut through hustle myths to define success on your terms. Marketing advisor and social impact founder Daniel Francavilla unpacks how to leave the grind, set real boundaries, and design an ecosystem where your ventures feed—not fight—each other. We cover work-life balance without burnout, time freedom as a key metric, responsible use of AI for authentic storytelling, and building a personal brand that aligns impact with revenue. If you're scaling a business and want sanity, clarity, and traction, this conversation is built for you. About the guest  : Daniel Francavilla is a marketing advisor, strategist, professor, and serial founder. He built and exited a creative agency, teaches at OCAD University, founded The Good Growth Company for mission-driven teams, and started ACCESS at 17 to back youth-led change. His work sits at the intersection of brand, impact, and sustainable entrepreneurship. Key takeaways  : Redefine success: shift from headcount and volume to alignment and measurable impact. Balance ≠ equal hours; think flow. Say no more often and protect focused time. Boundaries protect creativity: accept projects only when scope and timeline truly fit. Time freedom is a core KPI alongside revenue—plan capacity accordingly. Build your “Ecosystem of You”: map causes, strengths, offers, and roles so projects support each other. Variety can fuel performance—switch tasks intentionally based on demand, energy, and opportunity. Use AI as an amplifier for a defined voice and POV; ethics and taste remain differentiators. Create a master tracker for classes, talks, proposals, and launches to keep cross-venture clarity. Turn away misaligned work; provide scalable value via resources and content. Detach regularly: short trips without calls or client sessions reset mindset and stamina.

eCommerce Rockstars: Estrategias que Conectan: de HOT SALE a la temporada navideña 2025 con SAP EMARSYS En este episodio de eCommerce Rockstars, conversamos con Fernando Pagani, Global Head of Solutions en SAP Emarsys. Fernando, arquitecto de estrategias de commerce digital que impulsan a retailers globales, ha liderado la expansión de SAP Emarsys en México, combinando la perspectiva global con insights específicos sobre el consumidor mexicano en eventos como HOT SALE y Buen Fin.Analizamos la paradoja de la IA en México: el 72% de retailers reporta que WhatsApp aumentó las ventas 35%, pero la adopción de chatbots de Inteligencia Artificial (IA) es baja (solo el 28% ha implementado IA), a pesar de que quienes lo hacen ven 50% menos carritos abandonados.Discutimos el reto de la IA Rápida vs. IA Correcta, abordando el hot take de Fernando de que "Los chatbots básicos son peores que no tener chatbots". Abordamos el debate crucial sobre si las temporadas altas deben enfocarse en la Adquisición de clientes o en la Retención/Fidelización, y cómo las empresas enfocadas en customer engagement vieron resultados significativamente superiores en ventas por cliente durante HOT SALE 2024.Fernando comparte el KPI que más le obsesiona al preparar a las marcas para Black Friday y revela la importancia crítica del uptime, advirtiendo que "durante Black Friday, 87 minutos offline pueden costarte el año entero".El takeaway estratégico principal es que la diferencia entre colapsar y dominar se decide en la ejecución tecnológica y que ganar en temporalidades altas requiere que el customer engagement sea una estrategia orquestada y continua, no solo tácticas activadas durante la crisis.

Misinformation is a growing problem, with most Americans worried about the reliability of online information. Dan Nottingham created Mi Credible.ai to help people navigate this landscape by providing a credibility score for statements. The tool uses multiple AI models to objectively analyze sources, offering a numerical score and an explanation so users can assess the accuracy of their content before sharing it. This approach helps reduce bias, promotes informed communication, and gives businesses and individuals a measurable way to maintain trust and credibility online. Mi Credible.ai can be used for business, social, and casual purposes, from validating marketing content to settling debates among friends.

Send us a textEpisode  #149: Month-end doesn't have to feel like a rolling emergency. We walk through a proven, blame-free framework—the U.S. Army's After Action Review—to turn your close into a reliable, data-driven process that gets faster and more accurate every cycle. If your calendar is packed and bottlenecks keep returning, this is the practical reset your team needs.We start by reframing performance reviews as a leadership habit that compounds. Then we break down the AAR into three simple stages: plan, prepare, execute. You'll learn how to define clear success metrics for close, set roles and handoffs, and create a safe environment where facts matter more than opinions. We show how to gather evidence during the cycle—timelines, task logs, error heat maps—so the review pinpoints root causes and turns observations into action.From there, we dive into the backbone of a modern close: standardized processes, integrated systems, and tools that truly enable collaboration. Expect concrete ideas for automating data flow, reducing manual entries, and mapping end-to-end dependencies. We share ways to align accounting and FP&A early, cut late reclasses, and measure progress with a focused KPI set: close duration, on-time tasks, aged reconciliations, and post-close entries.Episode outline:The U.S. Army's After-Action Review process,Let's always focus on processes, systems, and tools, andUsing the After-Action Review system to evaluate our month-end close procedures.Please connect with me on:1.

Send us a textA small-town key and a big idea changed fitness forever. We're sitting with Chuck Runyon, cofounder of Anytime Fitness and Purpose Brands, to trace the leap from oversized racquetball clubs to tech-enabled, 24/7 gyms that actually match how people train today. Chuck opens up about building with empathy for small business owners, why “health first, brand second” guides every decision, and how a relentless focus on unit-level performance fuels enduring growth.We dig into the trends reshaping the industry: strength training as the foundation, recovery moving mainstream with saunas and red light, and the rise of personalization powered by wearables, biometrics, and smarter blood work. Chuck explains how human-plus-AI coaching can cut through wellness noise by turning data into plans people can follow, with accountability that comes from a coach's hug, high five, or hard push. If you've wondered how to open strong, he breaks down the presales playbook, the non-negotiables in site selection, and the KPIs every operator must master—average member value, PT penetration, close rate, and engagement.For investors and operators, we cover what makes a brand acquisition-ready: proof of concept, scalable economics, and international portability. Chuck shares how master franchises drive explosive global growth, why standardization matters with room for local flavor, and how private equity roll-ups can unlock faster expansion and cleaner exits. He's candid about mistakes, proud of the culture that's won best-place-to-work awards, and bullish on the next decade as fitness and medical care converge.If you care about building durable franchises, picking winners in longevity and personal care, or just want a clearer roadmap to member outcomes that stick, this conversation delivers.

The Interview That Sparked This EssayJoe Corkery and I worked together at Google years ago, and he has since gone on to build a venture-backed company tackling a real and systemic problem in healthcare communication. This essay is my attempt to synthesize that conversation. It is written for early and mid career PMs in Silicon Valley who want to get sharper at product judgment, market discovery, customer validation, and knowing the difference between encouragement and signal. If you feel like you have ever shipped something, presented it to customers, and then heard polite nodding instead of movement and urgency, this is for you.Joe's Unusual Career ArcJoe's background is not typical for a founder. He is a software engineer. And a physician. And someone who has led business development in the pharmaceutical industry. That multidisciplinary profile allowed him to see something that many insiders miss: healthcare is full of problems that everyone acknowledges, yet very few organizations are structurally capable of solving.When Joe joined Google Cloud in 2014, he helped start the healthcare and life sciences product org. Yet the timing was difficult. As he put it:“The world wasn't ready or Google wasn't ready to do healthcare.” So instead of building healthcare products right away, he spent two years working on security, compliance, and privacy. That detour will matter later, because it set the foundation for everything he is now doing at Jaide.Years later, he left Google to build a healthcare company focused initially on guided healthcare search, particularly for women's health. The idea resonated emotionally. Every customer interview validated the need. Investors said it was important. Healthcare organizations nodded enthusiastically.And yet, there was no traction.This created a familiar and emotionally challenging founder dilemma:* When everyone is encouraging you* But no one will pay you or adopt early* How do you know if you are early, unlucky, or wrong?This is the question at the heart of product strategy.False Positives: Why Encouragement Is Not FeedbackIf you have worked as a PM or founder for more than a few weeks, you have encountered positive feedback that turned out to be meaningless. People love your idea. Executives praise your clarity. Customers tell you they would definitely use it. Friends offer supportive high-fives.But then nothing moves.As Joe put it:“Everyone wanted to be supportive. But that makes it hard to know whether you're actually on the right path.” This is not because people are dishonest. It is because people are kind, polite, and socially conditioned to encourage enthusiasm. In Silicon Valley especially, we celebrate ambition. We praise risk-taking. We cheer for the founder-in-the-garage mythology. If someone tells you that your idea is flawed, they fear they are crushing your passion.So even when we explicitly ask for brutal honesty, people soften their answers.This is the false positive trap.And if you misread encouragement as traction, you can waste months or even years.The Small Framing Change That Changes EverythingJoe eventually realized that the problem was not the idea itself. The problem was how he was asking for feedback.When you present your idea as the idea, people naturally react supportively:* “That's really interesting.”* “I could see that being useful.”* “This is definitely needed.”But when you instead present two competing ideas and ask someone to help you choose, you change the psychology of the conversation entirely.Joe explained it this way:“When we said, ‘We are building this. What do you think?' people wanted to be encouraging. But when we asked, ‘We are choosing between these two products. Which one should we build?' it gave them permission to actually critique.” This shift is subtle, but powerful. Suddenly:* People contrast.* Their reasoning surfaces.* Their hesitation becomes visible.* Their priorities emerge with clarity.By asking someone to choose between two ideas, you activate their decision-making brain instead of their supportive brain.It is no different from usability testing. If you show someone a screen and ask what they think, they are polite. If you give them a task and ask them to complete it, their actual friction appears immediately.In product discovery, friction is truth.How This Applies to PMs, Not Just FoundersYou may be thinking: this is interesting for entrepreneurs, but I work inside a company. I have stakeholders, OKRs, a roadmap, and a backlog that already feels too full.This technique is actually more relevant for PMs inside companies than for founders.Inside organizations, political encouragement is even more pervasive:* Leaders say they want innovation, but are risk averse.* Cross-functional partners smile in meetings, but quietly maintain objections.* Engineers nod when you present the roadmap, but may not believe in it.* Customers say they like your idea, but do not prioritize adoption.One of the most powerful tools you can use as a PM is explicitly framing your product decisions as explicit choices, rather than proposals seeking validation. For example:Instead of saying:“We are planning to build a new onboarding flow. Here is the design. Thoughts?”Say:“We are deciding between optimizing retention or acquisition next quarter. If we choose retention, the main lever is onboarding friction. Here are two possible approaches. Which outcome matters more to the business right now?”In the second framing:* The business goal is visible.* The tradeoff is unavoidable.* The decision owner is clear.* The conversation becomes real.This is how PMs build credibility and influence: not through slides or persuasion, but through framing decisions clearly.Jaide's Pivot: From Health Search to AI TranslationThe result of Joe's reframed feedback approach was unambiguous.Across dozens of conversations with healthcare executives and hospital leaders, one pattern emerged consistently:Translation was the urgent, budget-backed, economically meaningful problem.As Joe put it, after talking to more than 40 healthcare decision-makers:“Every single person told us to build the translation product. Not mostly. Not many. Every single one.” This kind of clarity is rare in product strategy. When you get it, you do not ignore it. You move.Jaide Health shifted its core focus to solving a very real, very measurable, and very painful problem in healthcare: the language gap affecting millions of patients.More than 25 million patients in the United States do not speak English well enough to communicate with clinicians. This leads to measurable harm:* Longer hospital stays* Increased readmission rates* Higher medical error rates* Lower comprehension of discharge instructionsThe status quo for translation relies on human interpreters who are expensive, limited, slow to schedule, and often unavailable after hours or in rare languages. Many clinicians, due to lack of resources, simply use Google Translate privately on their phones. They know this is not secure or compliant, but they feel like they have no better option.So Jaide built a platform that integrates compliance, healthcare-specific terminology, workflow embedding, custom glossaries, discharge summaries, and real-time accessibility.This is not simply “healthcare plus GPT”. It is targeted, workflow-integrated, risk-aware operational excellence.Product managers should study this pattern closely.The winning strategy was not inventing a new problem. It was solving a painful problem that everyone already agreed mattered.The Core PM Lesson: Focus on Problems With Urgent Budgets Behind ThemA question I often ask PMs I coach:Who loses sleep if this problem is not solved?If the answer is:* “Not sure”* “Eventually the business will feel it”* “It would improve the experience”* “It could move a KPI if adoption increases”Then you do not have a real problem yet.Real product opportunities have:* A user who is blocked from achieving something meaningful* A measurable cost or consequence of inaction* An internal champion with authority to push change* An adjacent workflow that your product can attach to immediately* A budget owner who is willing to pay now, not laterHealthcare translation checks every box. That is why Joe now has institutional adoption and a business with meaningful traction behind it.Why PMs Struggle With This in PracticeIf the lesson seems obvious, why do so many PMs fall into the encouragement trap?The reason is emotional more than analytical.It is uncomfortable to confront the possibility that your idea, feature, roadmap, strategy, or deck is not compelling enough yet. It is easier to seek validation than truth.In my first startup, we kept our product in closed beta for months longer than we should have. We told ourselves we were refining the UX, improving onboarding, solidifying architecture. The real reason, which I only admitted years later, was that I was afraid the product was not good enough. I delayed reality to protect my ego.In product work, speed of invalidation is as important as speed of iteration.If something is not working, you need to know as quickly as possible. The faster you learn, the more shots you get. The best PMs do not fall in love with their solutions. They fall in love with the moments of clarity that allow them to change direction quickly.Actionable Advice for Early and Mid Career PMsBelow are specific behaviors and habits you can put into practice immediately.1. Always test product concepts as choices, not presentationsInstead of asking:“What do you think of this idea?”Ask:“We are deciding between these two approaches. Which one is more important for you right now and why?”This forces prioritization, not politeness.2. Never ship a feature without observing real usage inside the workflowA feature that exists but is not used does not exist.Sit next to users. Watch screen behavior. Listen to their muttering. Ask where they hesitate. And most importantly, observe what they do after they close your product.That is where the real friction lives.3. Always ask: What is the cost of not solving this?If there is no real cost of inaction, the feature will not drive adoption.Impact must be felt, not imagined.4. Look for users with strong emotional urgency, not polite agreementWhen someone says:“This would be helpful.”That is death.When someone says:“I need this and I need it now.”That is life.Find urgency. Design around urgency. Ignore politeness.5. Know the business model of your customer better than they doThis is where many PMs plateau.If you want to be taken seriously by executives, you must understand:* How your customer makes money* What costs they must manage* Which levers influence financial outcomesWhen PMs learn to speak in revenue, cost, and risk instead of features, priorities, and backlog, their influence changes instantly.The Broader Strategic Question: What Happens When Foundational Models Improve?During our conversation, I asked Joe whether the rapid improvement of GPT-like translation will eventually make specialized healthcare translation unnecessary.His answer was pragmatic:“Our goal is to ride the wave. The best technology alone does not win. The integrated solution that solves the real problem wins.” This is another crucial product lesson:* Foundational models are table stakes.* Differentiation comes from workflow integration, specialization, compliance, and trust.* Adoption is driven by reducing operational friction.In other words:In AI-first product strategy, the model is the engine. The workflow is the vehicle. The customer problem is the road.The Future of Product Work: Judgment Over OutputThe world is changing. Tools are accelerating. Capabilities are compounding. But the core skill of product leadership remains the same:Can you tell the difference between signal and noise, urgency and politeness, truth and encouragement?That is judgment.Product management will increasingly become less about writing PRDs or pushing execution and more about identifying the real problem worth solving, framing tradeoffs clearly, and navigating ambiguity with confidence and clarity.The PMs who will thrive in the coming decade are those who learn how to ask better questions.ClosingThis conversation with Joe reminded me that most of the time, product failure is not the result of a bad idea. It is the result of insufficient clarity. The clarity does not come from thinking harder. It comes from testing real choices, with real users, in real workflows, and asking questions that force truth rather than encouragement.If this resonates and you want help sharpening your product judgment, improving your influence with executives, developing clarity in your roadmap, or navigating career transitions, I work 1:1 with a small number of PMs, founders, and product executives.You can learn more at tomleungcoaching.com.OK.

We sit down with videography‑driven marketer Joe Goodchild to unpack how dentists can turn simple, authentic reels into real enquiries and booked e‑consults without spending on ads.We start by tackling the mental barrier that keeps clinicians from posting: fear of judgement. Joe shares why short, honest videos outperform polished graphics, how modern algorithms sample content from new accounts, and the small production tweaks that make a big difference—like filming facing a window for clean, flattering light. We get practical about audience targeting too: speak to specific patient scenarios and desired treatments, not generic tips that vanish in the feed.From there, we map the platform strategy. Instagram remains the best organic home for dentists thanks to Reels and a broad user base that increasingly includes older patients. Facebook still helps reach implant demographics, though expect limited organic reach. TikTok can deliver big top‑of‑funnel visibility; use it to push traffic to Instagram or straight to your site rather than chasing DMs as the sole KPI. Then we rebuild the conversion path: write a clear bio stating who you help, where you work, and how to book, and replace crowded link trees with one decisive CTA. Joe breaks down why a direct e‑consult link outperforms open‑ended DMs, and how Calendly's custom fields, reminders, and short slots keep bookings smooth and show‑ups high. We round things out with a take on branding: use colour and consistency, but avoid repetitive grid patterns that turn into wallpaper—variety and clarity keep viewers engaged.———————————————————————Disclaimer: All content on this channel is for education purposes only and does not constitute an investment recommendation or individual financial advice.

A fast, practical deep dive into The Trade Desk's move to label all SSPs as "resellers" — what that label actually means, why it has a bad rap, and where it's fair vs. misleading. Gareth breaks down value-add resellers (e.g., unique widgets/placements) vs. pure pass-through reselling, explains OpenPath in plain English, and demystifies the Transaction ID debate: what it is, why TTD wants it, and how it impacts buy-side efficiency and supply transparency. We wrap with actionable steps for traders — how to pressure-test paths, when to go direct with publishers/PMPs, and how to optimize beyond a basic domain list. Here's What You'll Learn Reseller ≠ automatically bad: the original IAB intent vs. today's nuanced reality. OpenPath vs. exchanges: what "direct to publisher" actually changes (and what it doesn't). Transaction ID, explained simply: one auction ➝ one ID ➝ fewer dupes and smarter SPO. How to buy smarter right now: talk to publishers, ask for goal-specific PMPs, and evaluate placements/experiences — not just domains.

Procurement's toughest problems rarely come from spreadsheets or contracts. They come from people. In this episode of "Buy: The Way…To Purposeful Procurement," David Loseby – professor, former CPO, and self-described "pracademic" – joins Philip Ideson and Rich Ham to explore why procurement's incentive systems often fail not because they're wrong on paper, but because they ignore how people actually think and act. Unfortunately, he says, most systems are designed for tidy models, not messy human behavior. Drawing on behavioral science and front-line experience, David introduces the idea of "behavioral architecture," a practical approach to shaping decisions by understanding how different audiences think, decide, and act. Finance wants the spreadsheet. Marketing wants the story. The CEO wants 30 seconds and a decision. A single, one-size-fits-all KPI (which we know is usually "savings") can't carry that load, and when it tries, it often drives the wrong behaviors. Instead, David makes the case for incentives that create shared ownership of outcomes across functions. He walks through a concrete example of shifting an energy "re-tender" into an enterprise-wide consumption program that improved P&L results through local engagement, gamification, and rapid payback actions – all proof that when the metric matches the mission, the business moves. He then applies the same logic to sustainability, customer experience, and resilience, showing how to frame the same initiative in different "languages" across the business without diluting the goal. David also offers actionable guidance: build balanced scorecards that include the business's priorities (not only procurement's), tie a portion of bonuses to stakeholder metrics, and tailor communications so each audience sees their value in the work. It's a call to action for procurement that may be uncomfortable, but it's exactly what they need to hear: if you want purposeful outcomes, you have to design for human behavior, not inhuman systems and processes.

“I speak ‘corporate' and ‘angel'—KPIs by day, Archangel Michael on speed dial.”   Catherine Mulligan—corporate executive by day, intuitive by design—joins Jane and Sarah to talk angels, guides, and the very practical side of “woo.” From a childhood rescue by her guardian angel to supporting colleagues through illness, Catherine shows how Spirit fits inside a KPI-driven life (and how boundaries make the magic sustainable). We meet Maggie, the delight-powered “joy guide,” learn the Champagne Tower of Light visualization, and unpack energy hygiene that's as routine as brushing your teeth. Catherine shares the origin story of her weekly Rosary Club (open to all traditions), why doubt is a precipice on the way to God (thanks, Rumi), and how to keep your field clear, your service high, and your ego humble. If you've ever wondered how to trust your guidance, set better spiritual “hygiene,” or pray for real-world results—this one's your lighthouse.   Intuition scales everywhere. Spirit fits beautifully inside a KPI world when you set intention, boundaries, and personal responsibility. Medium vs. Intuitive. Catherine works a wider “radio dial”—angels, guides, and loved ones—especially for life crossroads and clearing. Trust is a muscle. Doubt isn't failure; it's training. (“Doubt is a precipice on the way to God.”) Energy hygiene = daily habit. Ground, clear, protect—like brushing teeth. Golden hula-hoop, violet flame, and “disco-ball bubble” all help. Champagne Tower of Light. Invite Source light into every cell, overflow, and clear what's not for the highest good—30 seconds to 30 minutes. Boundaries are love. Compassion ≠ carrying. Don't take on what isn't yours; say yes only to highest-good work. Pray like a human, receive like a saint. Rosary Club is open to all (not just Catholics); nothing is too big or too small to bring. Ask for signs. Songs, buses with wolves, license plates—clear, specific, playful confirmations arrive when you ask. Keep the vibe high. Gratitude and intention stabilize your field so low-grade energy can't “hook” in public or at work. DPS: Divine Positioning System. Everything can point you back to God/Love; discernment keeps you out of spiritual “war” and in spiritual skill.   “Doubt is not a detour; it's the precipice that leads you closer.” “Energy hygiene is non-negotiable. You wouldn't skip brushing your teeth; don't skip clearing your field.” “Compassion doesn't mean carrying. Boundaries are holy.” “God is either everything or nothing—so let every moment point you back to love.” “Ask for a sign. Spirit loves a clear brief.”   Catherine's Rosary Club Instagram Druid Rising Catherine Mulligan Way of the Rose by Clark Strand & Perdita Finn Medium Curious Website: MediumCurious Jane's Website: Jane Morgan Medium  Sarah's Website: Sarah Rathke Podcast Instagram: @MediumCuriousPod YouTube: @mediumcurious VerySoul.com

Thanks to our Partner, NAPA Autotech Training and Pico TechnologyWatch Full Video EpisodeMatt riffs on a surprisingly quiet moment from Rocky—the late-night scene where Rocky admits he can't beat Apollo and Adrian simply asks, “What do we do?” From that question, Matt draws a blueprint for technicians and shop owners: set realistic, self-assigned wins and stack them. Instead of living and dying by big, binary outcomes (“fixed/not fixed,” “hit benchmark/missed benchmark”), build momentum with attainable goals that compound into competence, confidence, and better shop results.Big Ideas“What do we do?” beats “You can do it!” Swapping empty hype for practical next steps creates traction.Redefine winning: Rocky doesn't win the fight; he wins by “going the distance.” Translate that to your day: hit achievable targets that move you forward.Stack small, durable improvements: The path to 40+ billed hours or top-quartile shop productivity runs through many smaller, consistent wins.Perfection limits joy: Ambition is good; impossible standards starve you of pride and progress.Benchmarks aren't commandments: Continuous improvement may matter more than someone else's KPI.Practical Takeaways for TechsScope reps, not scope heroics: Use the oscilloscope on easy cars and routine checks—pair voltage with time until it's second nature, then add a second channel and a low-amp probe where it makes sense.Thermal imager habits: Pull it out on brake inspections, wheel-bearing complaints, and on known-good vehicles to calibrate your eye for “normal.”Micro-goals to build hours: If you're billing ~20 hrs/week, aim for 25 (≈+1 hr/day). Then 30. Ask: Where can I reclaim two hours? (economy of motion, fewer tool trips, better setup).Practical Takeaways for Shop Owners/LeadsAim for +10–15% improvements first: If techs are ~60% productive, target 70%, not 100% overnight. Design the system to enable the next step.Design wins into the week: Encourage daily scope/thermal reps, short debriefs, and “wins boards” that recognize process improvements—not just hero fixes.Coach with the Adrian question: When someone says, “I can't hit that,” respond with: “What do we do?” Identify the next two concrete actions.Memorable Lines“We can define our own successes—it doesn't have to be everyone else's.”“Set wins somewhere earlier in the process, not only at the final repair.”“I hope you're proud of yourself—and that you let yourself feel it.”Chapter Guide Cold open & sponsors — NAPA Auto Tech Training, Pico TechnologyWhy Rocky still hits — the “What do we do?” sceneDefining ‘going the distance' at workTech micro-wins — scope reps, thermal habits, pairing voltage & currentShop micro-wins — stepwise productivity goals, system design > pep talksPerfection vs. pride — making room to feel accomplishedThanks to our Partner, NAPA Autotech TrainingNAPA Autotech's team of ASE Master Certified Instructors are conducting over 1,200 classes covering 28 automotive topics.

Join Brian Doyle on the MSP Business School podcast as he delves into the essential strategies for MSPs aiming for a successful business exit. Brian is joined by expert guest Josh Kotler from Canyon Point, who shares insights into the world of mergers and acquisitions (M&A) and offers invaluable advice for MSPs contemplating their exit strategies. This episode will guide you through the stages and steps necessary to enhance your exit and achieve the most rewarding outcome. Kotler emphasizes the importance of reaching a $4-10 million revenue mark for MSPs. He explains that this growth is essential for significant enterprise value creation, which is crucial for attracting higher multiples at the time of sale. Through his experience, Kotler also provides a glimpse into how MSPs can transform from owner-centric operations to scalable businesses. Listeners will gain insights into how to optimize financial management, improve operational efficiencies, and leverage peer networks to thrive and prepare for future transitions. Key Takeaways: Importance of Scaling: Kotler advises that MSPs should aim to reach at least $4 million in revenue to ensure a meaningful and profitable exit. Role of the Owner: Reducing the owner's involvement in daily operations increases business independence, enhancing the overall value during a sale. Building Financial Health: Maintaining robust financials and proper KPI tracking is crucial for demonstrating business maturity to potential buyers. Seek Guidance: Joining peer groups or consulting with experienced professionals can provide the insights needed for successful business evolution. Intentional Planning: It's vital for MSP owners to be proactive, starting their exit planning well in advance to optimize opportunities for successful transactions.

We've all had those weeks where the pipeline, the budget, and the inbox gang up on us. Here's a quick, visual method to cut through noise, regain focus, and turn activity into outcomes: the focus map plus a six-step execution template. It's simple, fast, and friendly for time-poor sales pros.  How does a focus map work, and why does it beat a long to-do list? A focus map gets everything out of your head and onto one page around a single, central goal—so you can see priorities at a glance. Instead of scrolling endless tasks, draw a small circle in the centre of a page for your key focus (e.g., "Time Management," "Client Follow-Up," "Planning"). Radiate related sub-topics as circled "planets": prioritisation, block time, Quadrant Two focus, weekly goals. This simple visual cues the brain to spot what moves the needle first and what's just distraction. In 2025's noisy, Slack-popping world, mapping beats lists because you see interdependencies, not just items. It's a low-tech cognitive offload that scales across roles—from B2B SDRs to enterprise AEs—in Japan, the US, or Europe alike.  Do now: Grab a blank page, pick one central outcome, and sketch 6–8 sub-topics in 3 minutes. What's the six-step template I should run on each sub-topic? Use this repeatable mini-playbook: (1) Area of focus, (2) My current attitude, (3) Why it matters, (4) Specific actions, (5) Desired results, (6) Impact on vision. Walk a single sub-topic (say, "Prioritisation") through all six prompts to turn fuzzy intent into daily behaviour. This prevents feel-good plans that never reach your calendar. The key is specificity: "Block 90 minutes at 9:00 for top-value tasks, phone on Do Not Disturb" beats "be more organised." Leaders can cascade the same template in pipeline reviews or weekly one-on-ones to connect tasks to strategy and help teams self-coach.  Do now: Copy the six prompts onto a sticky note and keep it next to today's focus map. Can you show a concrete sales example for time management? Yes—prioritisation in practice looks like: organise, calendarise, and execute the top-value items first, every day.Start by acknowledging the usual blocker: "I never get around to it." Then translate to action: buy or open your organiser, maintain a rolling to-do list, and block time in your calendar for the highest-value, highest-priority items before anything else. Desired result: your best time goes to tasks with the greatest impact (e.g., discovery calls with ICP accounts, proposal updates due this week). Vision impact: consistency compounds—your effectiveness rises, and so does your contribution to team revenue. This is classic Quadrant Two discipline (important but not urgent) adapted for post-pandemic hybrid work.  Do now: Book tomorrow's first 90 minutes for your top two revenue drivers and guard it like gold. How should I prioritise when markets differ (Japan vs US vs Europe) or company size varies? Anchor priorities to value drivers that don't care about borders: ICP fit, deal stage risk, and time-to-impact. In Japan (often relationship-led and consensus-driven), prioritise follow-up and multi-stakeholder alignment; in the US (speed + experimentation), prioritise high-velocity outreach and fast iteration; in Europe (privacy/regulatory sensitivities), prioritise compliant messaging and local context. Startups should weight pipeline creation and early GTM proof; multinationals should weight cross-functional alignment, forecasting hygiene, and large-account expansion. The focus map adapts: the central circle stays constant ("Close Q4 revenue"), while the "planets" change by market and motion (ABM research vs channel enablement vs security reviews).  Do now: Label each sub-topic with the market or motion it best serves (e.g., "JP enterprise," "US SMB," "EU regulated"). How do I turn focus maps into weekly cadence without burning out? Run a lightweight loop: Monday map, daily 90-minute deep-work block, Friday review—then iterate. On Monday, pick one central theme (e.g., "Client Follow-Up") and 6–8 sub-topics. Each morning, choose one sub-topic and run the six-step template; protect a single 90-minute block to execute. On Friday, review outcomes vs. desired results, retire what's done, and promote what worked. Leaders can add a shared "focus wall" for visibility and coaching. This cadence blends time-blocking (Cal Newport), Eisenhower Quadrants, and sales hygiene—without heavy software. As of 2025, hybrid teams using this approach report better handoffs, cleaner CRM notes, and fewer "busy but not productive" days.  Do now: Schedule next week's Monday-Friday 09:00–10:30 focus block in your calendar. What are the red flags and watch-outs that kill focus? Beware "activity inflation," tool thrashing, and priority drift. Activity inflation = doing more low-value tasks to feel productive. Tool thrashing = bouncing between apps without finishing work. Priority drift = letting other people's urgencies displace your high-value commitments. Countermeasures: (1) Tie each sub-topic to a KPI (meetings booked, qualified pipeline, cycle time), (2) pre-decide your top two daily outcomes before opening email, (3) make your Friday review public to your manager or team to add gentle social accountability. Keep the map hand-drawn or one-page digital; if it takes longer to maintain than to act, you've over-engineered it.  Do now: Add KPI labels beside three sub-topics and delete one low-value "busywork" task today. Is there a quick checklist I can copy for my team? Use this one-pager and recycle it weekly. Central focus (one phrase): ____________________ Planets (6–8 sub-topics): ____________________ Six Steps per sub-topic: Area of focus → 2) My attitude → 3) Why it matters → 4) Specific actions → 5) Desired results → 6) Impact on vision Time block: 90 minutes daily, device on Do Not Disturb KPIs: meetings booked, pipeline $, cycle time, win rate Friday review: what shipped, what's next, what to drop This blends visual clarity (map) with behavioural clarity (six steps), making it easy for sales managers to coach and for reps to self-manage under pressure.  Do now: Print this checklist for the team stand-up and agree on one shared KPI for the week. Conclusion Focus maps + a six-step template turn overwhelm into action. They help you see what matters, schedule it, and ship it—fast. Start with one central goal, map the "planets," and run one sub-topic per day through the six prompts. That's how you get better results when time is tight.  Optional FAQs What's the difference between a focus map and mind map? A focus map is smaller and execution-oriented: one central outcome and 6–8 sub-topics you'll actually schedule this week.  How many sub-topics are ideal? Six to eight forces trade-offs; more invites sprawl and context switching.  How quickly should I see results? Usually within two weeks once you're blocking 90 minutes daily for the top-value tasks.  Next Steps for Leaders Run a 30-minute "Monday Map" with your team; pick one shared KPI. Make the 90-minute deep-work block part of your sales playbook. Review focus maps in pipeline meetings; coach actions, not anecdotes.    About the Author Dr. Greg Story, Ph.D. in Japanese Decision-Making, is President of Dale Carnegie Tokyo Training and Adjunct Professor at Griffith University.

John sits down with Harmony Brownwood, CEO & founder of GreenWorks Inspections & Engineering, to unpack how she grew from zero connections in 2009 to one of the largest independently owned inspection companies in the U.S.—now operating across six states with 11 locations, 2,500–3,000 services a month, and a runway from ~$15M toward $20M in annual revenue. Harmony shares the mindset work that kept her going for 16 months without a sale, the systems that let her scale beyond herself, and why “happy clients + happy team” is the non-negotiable core KPI.They get into how GreenWorks blends home inspections, structural engineering, and environmental services; why market flatness forces true market-share plays; and the playbook for entering new states by leading with engineering/environmental before residential inspections. You'll hear how she measures client experience (NPS, “happy calls,” QC + AI on 80k+ reports), builds SOPs that actually stick, and keeps standards sky-high while still being beloved by realtors, investors, and homeowners.If you want a concrete blueprint for scaling a people-powered, service-heavy org—without PE money, franchising, or letting quality slip—this one's for you.

Billboards at $0.75 CPM. Streaming TV you can actually measure. Tim Rowe breaks down how to blend OOH + CTV to drop blended CAC, spark geo-lift, and build “living-room” brand equity—without massive budgets.Streaming has turned TV into a performance channel you can buy, cap, and measure like digital—often at CPMs rivaling or beating social. Tim explains how their ad server + pixel connect living-room exposure to down-funnel actions, with many brands seeing $3–$4 cost per visit and 3–4× higher conversion vs other traffic sources. On OOH, the overlooked arbitrage is static or digital boards priced like real estate: win by buying the biggest formats in the largest markets at the lowest biddable entry price, then engineer earned media (social virality) and geo-lift.
