Get stuck in – Michael Bourgeois, CWT How do standards get written in ways that working water treaters can actually meet? In this conversation, AWT Past President, current Related Trade Organization (RTO) Committee Chair, and Chemco Products Company Operations Manager, Michael Bourgeois CWT, explains how AWT's liaisons collaborate with peer organizations, so guidance reflects field reality—operations, risk, and achievable compliance.  From Field Bags to Board Rooms: Why RTOs Matter  Bourgeois outlines the purpose of AWT's RTO structure: volunteer liaisons track and influence work at groups whose missions overlap with industrial water—CTI, ABMA, ASHRAE, AWWA, ASHE, and others. The aim is simple and practical: make sure member voices are heard so guidance advances health outcomes (e.g., Legionella control) and day-to-day feasibility for service providers and suppliers.  Turning Reaction into Proaction  Historically, the industry learned about new rules after they landed. Bourgeois details how AWT is shifting to co-authoring cooling-water guidelines with CTI and re-engaging ABMA, so boiler-water limits and methods reflect current technologies and operations. The model: clarify shared goals, contribute content expertise, and formalize collaboration so members get usable documents at member pricing.  Concrete Moves: Boiler Water, Healthcare, and More  Examples include AWT's role on ABMA's Boiler Expo steering committee (with a focused water-treatment training block) and early conversations with ASHE on pathogen control in building and healthcare water systems. He describes how liaisons feed updates into a formal committee cadence, so the AWT Board and members see progress—not just headlines.  When working professionals help write the playbook, outcomes improve clients, operators, and public health—and members stop "reacting" to standards they had no hand in shaping.  Listen to the full conversation above.

You've probably heard us talk about the concept of "facts tell but stories sell" and one of the most effective ways to tell stories, especially in our short form world, are analogies. Analogies allow individuals to connect the dots in a way they understand instead of you talking over their head with a bunch of bullshit science words (I used to do that too). Listen in as I share a bunch of examples, why having a method for your coaching is key, and, at the end, I'll share with you a few of my favorite analogies.   Time Stamps:   (0:29) The Netflix Marketing Effect (1:35) Example on a Metabolism Post (3:30) Having a New Method (4:15) The Blindfolded Chess Player (5:09) Online Coaching vs In-Person Training (5:45) More Examples (8:18) My Favorite Analogies ---------- Join Us LIVE in Scottsdale, Arizona for the Fit Biz Mastermind 5.0: https://www.impactcoachacademy.com/the-fit-biz-mastermind ---------- Whenever You're Ready, Here Are 5 Ways We Can Help You (For Free) (Community) Join the Fitness Business Secrets FB  Community to Unlock Your Free 5 Clients in 5 Days Mini-Course (Content) Grab our exact post templates that are responsible for more than 3,500 online clients in our business Automated Post Planner   (Instagram) 3-5x Your Engagement, Grow an Audience and Generate Dream Clients from Instagram IG Playbook For Health & Fitness Coaches (Training) Get Access To The  5 Most Popular Training We Created in 2022 (Get Clarity) Schedule a FREE No-Obligation 15-minute Call to Explore How To Add 10,000/Mo to Your Business–Guaranteed

Overview of Episode #55 --- Maslow's law of the hammer, a cognitive bias that involves an over-reliance on a familiar tool. What DISC is and specific examples of how it can be weaponized. Using the car analogy, the five areas of job fit and performance and TriMetrix. The power of acceptance and being a great teacher and leader. Contact Priceless Professional Development: 770-578-6976, suzie@pricelessprofessional.com or www.pricelessprofessional.com To see the show notes and get the transcript for this episode, go to: www.pricelessprofessional.com/weapon Timing on Recording: @ 3:20  --- Topic 1: What is the DISC Assessment? Popular online assessment tool used all over the world. (Over 40 million people have taken it!) Based on four Communication Styles that match the letters: D, I, S, C. Each Communication Style represents different observable behavioral and communication tendency. Overview of the styles (Most people are a mix of styles): D – Dominance I – Influence S – Steadiness C – Compliance Highlights of the DISC Assessment: Your DISC Communication Style Strengths; Blind Spots; “Do's and Don'ts” for Communication; Your Ideal Work Environment; Other's Perceptions of You; Tips on how you like to be managed; What motivates you; How you come across to others and more! A great tool to use with teams to help people understand and appreciate different styles, different interests, so that they can work together more effectively. Builds self-awareness and how to value differences. Quick and easy to understand. Timing on Recording: @ 6:37  --- Topic 2: Examples that Demonstrate the Over Application and Weaponizing of the DISC Assessment. Consultant with a new CEO planted concern and worry about each one of the new team members. “Dave is not assertive enough to be the Sales Manager.” “Karen shouldn't be in charge of Accounting, she's not detail-oriented.” About the Human Resource Manager, “I'm not sure she's people-oriented." Timing on Recording: @ 9:32  --- Topic 3: How to Alleviate the Over Application or Weaponizing of DISC. Help clients understand there are other factors of performance, we do that through a car analogy. DISC is how you drive; it's what you see. Gas in the tank; what are you motivated by, what makes you want to go, fills your tank? Under the hood; Horsepower; Acumen, your personal skills, your level of ability to work well with others or the ability to take responsibility for mistakes, etc. Roads traveled; Where you have traveled, experience and future plans, where do you want to go? Where you're parked; What is the culture, what is the team, what is the environment? Timing on Recording: @ 12:29  --- Topic 4: Looking at the Examples that Demonstrate the Over Application and Weaponizing of the DISC Assessment through the Car Analogy. Dave: Even though his style is not direct and assertive, his interests are, what puts gas in his tank. And his personal skills, the horsepower, he scored well-developed in all 25 personal skills. His horsepower and what puts gas in his tank is a match with the position. Roads traveled, Dave had been in the industry his entire career. Where you are parked, culture, team, Dave's team respected him, were inspired by him and he helped keep the company moving. Make sure to look at the Five Areas of Job Fit. Timing on Recording: @ 20:05  --- Topic 5: Definition of Weaponizing and More Examples. Weaponizing is a broad term with respect to the degree of harm the weapon is meant to cause. It may be designed to cause character assassination, so confusion or otherwise dis- or misinformed people. “Those quiet people are too slow and they're not fast and smart like we are, they drive me crazy.” “I could never work with her, she's too talkative and too damn enthusiastic. She needs some coaching.” “Us high I's and D's have to stick together.” “Oh, we're the same or you're different from me, so I couldn't work with you.” Timing on Recording: @ 25:31  --- Topic 6: Accuracy of Sciences. One Science – 60% accurate. Two Sciences – 74% accurate. Three Sciences – 94% accurate. The Department of Labor says, “Use at least three tools and then use it for less than 30% of your decision.” Timing on Recording: @ 28:29  --- Topic 7: Hiring Decision Recommendations. The Department of Labor says, “Use at least three tools and then use it for less than 30% of your decision.” When working with teams, I recommend that the company use the DISC and motivators, it's called the Talent Insights Assessment, it give you a better result in building trust and having the team better understand each other. DISC and motivators, when using it in a developmental manner or in a team manner, can to help people. One-page tool called a Talent Tracker; there are wheels that plot people where their style is located. You know where their teammates are located on the wheel and how they like to communicate. You can start to move out of judgment. Go from judgment, to understanding, and then from understanding to appreciation and valuing. Build trust. Value. Acceptance. Timing on Recording: @ 34:03  --- Topic 8: Top Takeaways. When taking the DISC assessment, look for your strengths and your blind spots, and look for the strengths and values others bring in their style and their behaviors. Use it to build love and acceptance, not to be used as a weapon or judgment, or “I know something about you that you don't know.” Couple the DISC assessment with the Five Areas of Job Fit.
