Welcome back! In this episode, Kristen and Lauren are joined by Trevor Minton, Chief Experience Officer at Openfield in Cincinnati. Join us as we discuss the ways we've seen the design industry narrow and focus on specialities, using design as a mindset and solving problems outside of your job, and the importance of being flexible and accepting new technologies in an ever-evolving landscape of design tools.

How Positive Leadership Transforms Workplace Culture and Elevates Customer Experience  Shep interviews Ryan Minton, Best-Selling Author and Keynote Speaker. He talks about his new book, Uplifted and shares insights from his experience in hospitality, including the impact of employee engagement, appreciation, and empowerment in creating uplifting work environments and better customer experiences.  This episode of Amazing Business Radio with Shep Hyken answers the following questions and more:    What practical benefits come from creating an uplifting workplace culture?  How does a hospitality mindset improve customer service across different industries?  What impact does leadership have on employee morale and customer experience?  How does positive leadership help reduce staff turnover in customer-facing roles?  In what ways does an employee's mood affect customer interactions?  Top Takeaways:    The hospitality mentality is not just for hotels and restaurants. It is valuable in every industry because it sets the bar for the customer experience standard. It teaches every employee to always show care, gratitude, and kindness no matter what industry they work in.  A heartfelt "thanks for coming in today" can make a real difference in someone's mood and attitude. It is a simple yet powerful statement that leaders can say to make their employees know that they matter. When employees feel appreciated, they're more likely to enjoy coming to work and give their best. It creates a workplace where people want to come, stay, and grow.  Every employee becomes the face of your brand the moment they interact with your customers. When they are not happy at their jobs, customers feel it. High turnover and unhappiness can hurt customer satisfaction, so making sure that employees are engaged, equipped, and fulfilled helps create positive customer experiences.   Strict policies can sometimes get in the way of the human aspect of customer service. When employees are trusted to handle situations as they see fit, they feel empowered to do their jobs. Employees need to grow through training and be equipped with the right tools so that they can use policies as guidelines while exercising common sense to meet each customer's unique needs.   Happy employees lead to happy customers, and happy customers come back. Invest in people through appreciation, empowerment, and uplifting leadership.  Loyalty programs and perks can encourage repeat business, but truly memorable companies don't rely on them alone. Being helpful, friendly, and uplifting is the best loyalty program you can offer. When people feel good about you, they'll keep coming back, with or without loyalty programs.  Plus, Ryan shares the "balloon effect" and how it can elevate customer and employee experiences. Tune in!  Quote:   "Good old-fashioned customer service is just good old-fashioned hospitality. So many brands look to the hotel industry because it has become the standard for customer service."     About:    Ryan Minton is a Best-Selling Author and Keynote Speaker with over 20 years of experience leading world-class hospitality brands. He is the author of Thanks for Coming in Today: Creating a Culture Where Employees Thrive & Customer Service is Alive. His upcoming book Uplifted! The Remarkable Power of Positive Leadership on Frontline Teams launches June 10th.    Shep Hyken is a customer service and experience expert, New York Times bestselling author, award-winning keynote speaker, and host of Amazing Business Radio.    Learn more about your ad choices.

Staying fit and getting healthy are often listed with our New Years Resolutions. Well, we're almost halfway through the year... how are you doing with your fitness goals?    In this episode, Women's Strength and Wellness Coach, Nichole Minton, shares small and simple things we can do to progress on our fitness journey. It's not about huge undertakings or overnight changes. It's about simple daily habits such as walking, getting more protein, and making time for God that will make a big difference in how we feel. When change moves at a slower pace we are more apt to stick with it and it becomes part of who we are so it's worth the effort to intentionally slow down (I know, easier said than done for moms).    We hope you will listen to Nichole's wisdom as she teaches with her heart and choose one small thing you can change today to start progressing in your fitness journey. Remember, anything you do to improve yourself blesses your family as well!

Authenticity and storytelling sets you apart in a competitive job market.   This week on the Destination Dream Job podcast, I was joined by Brad W. Minton, a career development expert who specializes in helping young professionals and job seekers navigate the challenges of personal branding and career growth.   This episode had so many great nuggets, it was hard to choose my top 3, but here they are:   ✅ Embrace Your Story Brad and I talked about how your story is what makes you truly stand out. Focus on the "why" behind your career choices, as it's the thread that connects all your experiences and shows employers what you bring to the table.   ✅ Recognize Your Strengths Reflect on past experiences where you excelled. Identifying your "in the zone" moments helps you understand what strengths you should leverage in your career and how to present them effectively on your resume.   ✅ Don't Let Imposter Syndrome Hold You Back If you don't confidently share your achievements, someone else will. Building your personal brand is key to standing out in a crowded job market.   Listen to the full episode for more insights on how you can turn your unique story into a powerful personal brand that resonates with employers!   Connect with Brad: https://www.linkedin.com/in/brad-w-minton/ https://www.instagram.com/minttobecareer/   Connect with Steph: www.destinationdreamjob.com www.linkedin.com/in/stephgillies

Pianist composer Thelonius Monk (born Oct 10, 1917) was possibly the most idiosyncratic performers and composers our music has ever produced. His music is second only to Duke Ellington in the number of times his many compositions have been recorded. Often referred to as the High Priest of Bebop, he was instrumental in the birth of this style, playing alongside Charlie Parker and Dizzy Gillespie, he was the pianist of choice at Minton's Playhouse where the new style was given birth.

Amy Minton, who was appointed this year to the Alabama Public Library Service, details her journey to becoming aware of local library issues, how she became involved, and the positive changes that have been made recently.

On August 29, 520 BC, the Word of the LORD came to Haggai the prophet to the two primary leaders of the Judean exiles who had returned home to Jerusalem. Although the people had started to rebuild the temple about twenty years before, the work had stalled, and the people had become complacent. They cared more about their own houses than the LORD's house. Because they were neglecting the LORD and His gifts, the people's lives were in various kinds of disarray. The people listened to the Word of the LORD proclaimed by Haggai, and with the LORD's promise to be with them, they began the work on the temple anew.  Rev. Doug Minton, pastor at Our Savior Lutheran Church in Minton, IL, joins host Rev. Timothy Appel to study Haggai 1:1-15.  "The Post-Exilic Prophets” is a series on Sharper Iron that goes through the books of Haggai, Zechariah, and Malachi. Through the preaching of these faithful men, the LORD sent His Word to His people who returned home after their exile in Babylon. Not only did the LORD encourage His people in the work of rebuilding the temple, but even more than that, He pointed them forward to the fulfillment of all the Old Testament promises in the coming kingdom of our true King and great High Priest, Jesus Christ.

Send us a Text Message.'Mook Simpson, a Sydney artist known for his unique blend of humour and quiet social commentary, is about to launch his latest exhibition, "Pretty Unsettling," at Damien Minton Presents. The show features a collision of iconic Australian landscapes and fantastical creatures, challenging perceptions of history and memory. Simpson's studio practice reimagines classic works from the Heidelberg School, inserting unexpected monsters into these beloved Australian scenes.

This week on The Whiskey Trip podcast, Big Chief takes listeners on a ride to Lexington, KY and chats with Macaulay Minton, President and Chief Alchemist for Dark Arts Whiskey House. Macaulay takes the Big Man on a ride learning about the 7 stages of Whiskey Alchemy and  how they sensed a void in the whiskey industry. Their team would unleash something truly magical. Dark Arts Whiskey House journey began with a revelation: the art of whiskey making is not just science, but an alchemical fusion of flavors and possibilities. Big Chief has become a believer is this philosophy. On the first half they start the show with a straight bourbon whiskey which is a 7 year old, 112.2 proof. A true high rye mash bill of 51% corn, 39% rye and 10% malted rye. This is truly a whiskey trip trapped in a bottle.

At 7 years old and 108 proof with a mash bill of 60% corn, 36% rye and 4% malted barely it took the Big Man to memories of his grandmother's sweets with toasted fluff. To close out the show, Mac and Big Chief sip on a straight rye whiskey finished with toasted amburana oak staves. Cask Strength Rye. With a 95/5 mash bill this 7 year old whiskey is Cinnamon Toast Crunch with toasted coconut in a beautiful bottle. This ride on The Whiskey Trip showcases the art of alchemy. Never underestimate the rise of those around you. Cheers!

SynopsisAmerican jazz composer and pianist Thelonious Sphere Monk was born on today's date in 1917. Largely self-taught, he began playing piano at 6. At 17, he dropped out of New York's esteemed Stuyvesant High School for gifted students to serve as organist for a touring evangelist. In his 20s, he became the house pianist at Minton's, a Manhattan jazz nightclub.Monk's original compositions, marked by dissonances and angular twists of melody, became jazz standards. They also had great titles: ‘Round Midnight; Straight, No Chaser; Ruby, My Dear; and Well, You Needn't.Monk made the cover of Time magazine and is credited with being the second-most-recorded jazz composer after Duke Ellington.Monk's biographer Robin D.G. Kelly, who spent 14 years researching Monk's life and music, said, “He was Janus-faced [looking backward and forward]. … Monk pulled as much from his roots, the old-style [stride] piano traditions he never left, as from the really futuristic musical territory he was the first to visit. He's always going to be associated with the founding of Bebop, with Charlie Parker and Dizzy Gillespie. I don't place him on the Bebop school, though — I place him in his own school. “Music Played in Today's ProgramThelonious Monk (1917 – 1982) Ruby, My Dear - Thelonious Monk, piano Columbia Legacy CK-63533
