*This episode is an excerpt taken from our 2020 interview. Steve Herz argues positive feedback can limit personal and professional growth, while constructive feedback can lead to self improvement. He frames these insights using three communication traits: authority, warmth, energy (AWE). According to Herz, individuals can leverage the AWE framework to more effectively communicate and connect. Steve Herz is a talent agent and career advisor, as well as the president and founding partner of IF Management, now a part of the Montag Group. He has represented and coached dozens of sports, media, and entertainment leaders over the course of nearly three decades.

And he’s the President of The Montag Group, a leading agency representing top broadcast news and sports talent. In this episode we talk about personal development. Steve believes that we get a lot of positive feedback that we don’t actually deserve, In the age of “everybody gets a trophy” it could be the lack of honest feedback is what’s holding you back from performing at the level you desire. We dig into why the difference between being good and great is usually quite narrow. As many of you know, I think we do a real disservice to people who are looking to change by emphasizing transformation. Wholesales changes that are too often unsustainable.

We’ll be joined by Steve Herz, President of The Montag Group – a talent agency representing broadcasters on networks like NBC Sports, ESPN, and CNN – to talk with us about how we can use authority, warmth, and energy to amplify the effectiveness of our communication and connection with others.

In this episode of Bulletproof Radio, my guest is career advisor Steve Herz. He leads a large sports and entertainment talent and marketing firm, and helps athletes, CEOs, lawyers, entrepreneurs and young professionals move forward in their careers.According to Steve, our longing for human connection reflects an important truth—we respond more positively to people who have the ability to make a deep human connection with us.

Those are the components of what you should be looking to improve once you don't take yes for an answer.We also get into why constructive criticism can move your career forward in big ways.“If I realized that as the employee, that I'm increasing my value to you or to the world in terms of more customers, better getting along with colleagues, better leadership, fellowship, whatever it might be, I'm helping myself,” Steve says. “So you should be thinking about that (constructive) criticism as a gift and also take it selfishly.”Steve is president of the Montag Group in NYC, an agency that represents over 250 of today’s top journalists, broadcast executives, and media personalities—at networks like CBS, CNN, MSNBC, FOX News, ESPN and elsewhere.After his advice in this episode, you’ll be ready to crush it at whatever personal or professional step you take next.Enjoy!

This week in Episode 5 of The Wormcast, I'm joined by Steve Herz, President of The Montag Group and author of a new book "Don't Take Yes For An Answer: Using Authority, Warmth and Energy to Get Exceptional Results. We discuss the the essentials of the book and how you can take the principles into your own career whether it's in front of the camera or behind the scenes. In fact it's good advice for anyone who wants to improve themselves in any business or leadership position. In the 2nd part we discuss how Steve ended up representing sportscasters and what he looks for in his clients. How COVID is challenging the represenation business and how it could affect compensation for on-air commentators. Lastly we wrap up in the curious case on why people would rather watch their favorite events or shows on a phone screen vs the super size tv screens in 4K-HDR. Enjoy!

How to Virtually Forge Deep Connections With Prospects The pandemic has changed the methods of prospecting. Sales is still about connecting with people on a personal level but with so many people doing business virtually now, sales reps have to be able to do this without getting to see people in “the real world.” Steve Herz is the president of the Montag Group, a talent agency specializing in representing sportscasters, TV newscasters, weathermen radio personalities, podcast hosts, and more. Over the last four years, however, Steve has also become a coach to executive CEOs and anyone who wants to improve their communication skills to close more deals. Don't Take Yes for an Answer Steve's book is Don't Take Yes for an Answer. The title might seem odd to a salesperson whose livelihood depends on a yes. In this case, Steve means that he doesn't want people to be surrounded by the yeses that keep them stuck in mediocrity. It impedes your improvement. For example, Steve was in his second year of law school, and he was one of the 30 kids working at a big law firm in New York City. By the end of summer, he was facing a verdict of either getting an offer or not. The first 29 people ahead of him received an offer. Steve did not. The managing partner told him that he didn't have the right skill set for the job and it was suggested he go into sales, start his own company, and come back to the firm as a client. Steve reflected on this advice and it changed the trajectory of his life. This is the story behind the title of his book. He was given a life-changing no and it was the best thing for him! Steve quotes Barry Summers, who has had great success on Wall Street, who said, “The second best thing to a Yes in the business is a fast No.” Striving for the best version of you It isn't your job to say yes. Your job is to bring out the honesty from people around you. Be okay with the no that will push you to become better. Show up with a healthy vulnerability that reflects your interest in growing and learning. If you strive to get better everyday you open the door to a better version of yourself. This positions you to connect with people who may become your mentors. Successful salesman vs a great salesman To be great in sales, you need to believe you can be a success. This comes from genuinely serving the needs of others. Be someone who knows that you are going to do your very best for the person who has entrusted their needs with you. For example, if you're selling insurance in Florida and you know the property is prone to flooding, let the homeowners know about it. If something catastrophic happens, get them a stay in a hotel and get their house rebuilt. Exceed the expectations of a client and care about the outcome. Forging the connection Steve believes that people can still forge great connections with people, even in this virtual environment. Before the pandemic, a salesperson may have made 30 phone calls but with the pandemic, may be connecting only half as much but now, it's on Zoom. Seeing the person face-to-face has a different effect than just speaking with them on the phone. Making eye contact, even virtually, and makes the connection much deeper, especially when you're able to discuss their life, their interests, and their needs. Stumbling blocks in using Zoom When you're able to Zoom, set aside time to do what needs to be accomplished. Five minutes is not going to be enough. Instead, set aside thirty minutes per call so you have a chance to get to know what's important to your potential client. Get to understand their reasons for being in the industry they're in. If you spend the time getting to know people, eventually, enough of those people will have a need for what you're offering. Steve has been in the business for 25 years and many of his customers/clients have stayed with him for that 25-year period. He isn't aiming for short-term business. Steve believes that the best customers are your current customers and maintaining them while getting new ones by referral is a great way to grow your business. The authentic body language As a salesperson, you need to be confident and comfortable in your own body language. Be relaxed, have good posture, and maintain eye contact. During a sales meeting make it a habit to be professional but authentic. You want there to be a consistency of behavior throughout your life so you can show up to prospects comfortably. Oftentimes, we don't even know we have bad habits. You can correct that with the help of your colleagues, friends, or family members who can be an extra set of eyes on what could be improved upon. Make it a habit to sit up straight and have good eye contact so it becomes natural when you're in front of people. #SalesPosture Be perceptive and acknowledge others Make sure that the person you're talking to feels welcome. Look at the conversation from the other person's perspective and ask yourself: -What do they want out of this? -What is their point of view? -How can I frame my conversation in a way to make it about them? Steve talked to his friend, Jeff, who ran a whole division in Citibank and built a billion-dollar business for the bank. Jeff was on the heavy side, however, and was told earlier in his career that he wouldn't get a job in management because he doesn't look the part. His performance was so strong, however, that he was promoted anyway to manage a whole division. Steve asked Jeff how he did it. Jeff explained that his boss noticed that in his division there was almost no turnover of people they considered integral to the business. It was because Jeff cared for his employees and whenever someone got another offer, Jeff would meet with them to ask if the offer was really the best thing for them. He would go over the pros and cons of taking the offer. Jeff supported their decisions either way, but he made it a point to create the chance to highlight that their company had already proven how much these employees were valued. Jeff was able to move through these meetings well because he'd already established trust. He genuinely cared about his people and they knew it. Eric Mark is now a senior VP for the Miami Dolphins but when he and Steve still worked together he asked Steve to have breakfast with him. Eric said that he was coming to Steve to talk as a friend and a boss. He told Steve that he loved working with him but he got a job that would move him towards his dream job working for the NBA. Steve told Eric to take the job, even though he wanted him to stay, but knowing that Eric's heart was somewhere else, he knew in the long run, it was Eric's best move. Eric thrived in the NBA for five years and eventually got the offer with the Miami Dolphins. A decade later and they are still close. We all need to constantly improve our mindset and the way we interact with others. No matter how successful we become, it's mission critical to keep learning about how to show up for people and be at our best. “How to Virtually Forge Deep Connections With Prospects" episode resources Reach out to Steve Herz via his LinkedIn Account!

Steve is President of The Montag Group, a sports and entertainment talent and marketing consultancy, and a career advisor to CEOs, lawyers, entrepreneurs, and young professionals.Critical feedback is important for our growth, but asking for it and receiving it can be challenging because people who care about us are generally hesitant to tell us anything negative about ourselves, so what can we do to get the feedback we need to improve?What to Listen ForWhy is critical feedback important to our growth and success, and how can we get better at receiving it?What can you do to get the feedback you need to grow in a culture where people seem to coddle each other out of fear of how you might respond to critical feedback?How do you ask for feedback in such a way that allows people to feel comfortable offering critical feedback rather than just saying something to make you feel good?How much of your success is determined by your proficiency versus your ability to connect with others?What steps can you take today to improve your ability to effectively communicate and connect with others so you don't get passed up on job opportunities and promotions?What is the 360 review and how can it save you from ending up in terrible situations?Why is warmth important in building relationships and why can your aversion to it lead to failure in life?What can you do to work on your humility?How do energy and warmth work together when you are interacting with others, and what can you do to improve both while staying true to who you are?Critical feedback is important because you only have your perspective on what you are doing. So if you are always doing something incorrect while you believe it to be correct, how are you going to correct what you're doing wrong if no one tells you. Unfortunately, the people who know us best will likely be hesitant to tell us when we're doing something wrong out of fear of confrontation, or hurting our feelings, or just wanting to avoid a potentially awkward situation. This means we must make it easy and comfortable for the people who care about us to give us the feedback we need to be our best selves.A Word From Our SponsorsShare your vulnerabilities, victories, and questions in our 17,000-member private Facebook group at theartofcharm.com/challenge.

Thank you for listening to our Finding Brave show, ranked in the Top 100 Apple Podcasts in Careers! “You don’t even necessarily have to have the best ideas, but if you have the most influence, then those are the ideas that are going to win the day.” - Steve Herz Whether you’re looking for work, worried about remaining competitive and keeping your job during a recession, or trying to reach your highest potential when things start looking up, having the ability to make deep human connections with others is key. That “connectability” is imperative to our personal career success, and today’s Finding Brave guest shares his knowledge on how we can all start developing this attribute.
