#354: How do you build a consent system for someone who is dead? How do you clone a voice so it cannot be turned into a deep fake? Miles Spencer built a company around those exact questions. Reflekta.ai lets you talk to a reflection of someone who has passed. His own father reads a bedtime story to his granddaughter every night and talks it through until she falls asleep, eight years after he died. Is this just deep fake with better branding? What happens when the AI goes off the rails and asks grandpa for the three numbers on the back of a credit card? Miles has an answer for each one, and most of them land on the same line: you built it, you paid for it, it never leaves your four walls. Nothing gets scraped. There are only two public reflections on the entire platform. The voice of his dad came from a ten-second voicemail found on a relative's phone five years after he was gone, and last month that voice had 9,000 conversations. More than half the stories on Reflekta are from people who are still alive. ALS and Alzheimer's patients getting it all down while they still can. Founders who want their values to outlast them. And that last group is where it gets interesting for anyone who runs a company. New hires talk to the founder during onboarding. Ask a question about the business and the founder answers. SOPs, handbooks, the whole thing, in the voice of the person who built it. Miles calls the framework SoulTech, starting from the emotional weight of the product instead of bolting ethics on at the end. Agree with the premise or not, the stack underneath is less exotic than it sounds: multi-cloud, RAG, three voice vendors swapped by time of day, 110 days from idea to launch. Darin's verdict by the end is honest. The dead-relative part is still not his jam. But the founder who never leaves the building, the one who onboards every new hire forever? That one he gets.

In this message from Matthew 15:29–16:4, Pastor Karl examines two very different groups of people who come to Jesus — and what their approach reveals about how we receive grace.The first group comes from the Decapolis, a Gentile region with no religious standing or covenant claim. They bring broken bodies, unspoken needs, and nothing to offer — and Jesus meets them with compassion, healing, and even provision they didn't know to ask for. The second group, the Pharisees and Sadducees, arrives with suspicion and a demand for proof — and Jesus refuses to perform for them.The contrast surfaces a powerful truth: Jesus has endless compassion for those who come to him needy, but no obligation to satisfy those who come feeling entitled. Unworthiness isn't a disqualification for grace — it's the prerequisite for it.Pastor Karl unpacks why the disciples hesitated to feed the 4,000 (it wasn't that they forgot what Jesus could do — it was that they questioned who he'd do it for), what it really means to "fall from grace," and why the cross is the only reliable lens through which to interpret God's love. When we bring our "not enough" to Jesus, we find that inadequacy is exactly the raw material he's looking for.Watch all our sermons on our youtube channel "Flipside Christian Church"Join us in person 8:00am, 9:30am & 11:00am every Sunday morning.37193 Ave 12 #3h, Madera, CA 93636For more visit us at flipside.churchFor more podcasts visit flipsidepodcasts.transistor.fm
Your new hire isn't “bad” after three days, they're lost in your system. When we throw someone into a busy dental office with a login, a quick tour, and a vague “just ask questions,” we create office survival training. That is not onboarding, and it is one of the fastest paths to turnover, resentment, and the feeling that you can never keep a solid dental team.I break down why dental experience doesn't automatically translate into performance in your practice. Every office has a different pace, different expectations, different practice management software, and a different way of communicating with patients. Even talented, experienced people can struggle more when they feel pressure to prove themselves and don't feel safe admitting what they don't know. We talk about how inflated expectations and low psychological safety quietly destroy trust, and what to do instead if you want real employee retention.Then we get practical: assign one trainer, not a whole department, and build an onboarding system that does not live in the brain of your best employee. I share how to create a simple training framework by role, set standards without scaring good people away, and use a 30-60-90 day onboarding plan so learning happens in the right order. The goal is a practice that runs smoother, trains faster, and keeps great people because the environment makes it safe to ask questions and grow.If you want more structure like this in your dental practice management and leadership, subscribe, share this with a practice owner friend, and leave a five-star review so more dentists can find the show.

Managing Made Simple for Team Leaders & Small Business Owners
You made the big hire. They have the experience, the track record, the resume. A few weeks in, something feels off and you're starting to wonder if you made the right call. This isn't usually a people problem. It's almost always a process problem: two specific gaps that most leaders skip, and both happen before the new hire ever has a real chance to hit their stride.In this episode you will learn:Why the interview needs to go beyond skills questions, and what happens when expectations go unsetThe Google story: a senior hire from McKinsey who had every qualification and still wasn't set up to succeed, and exactly what was missing from day oneWhat knowledge transfer actually looks like for a senior role and why it's the highest-leverage investment you can make in the first two weeksHow to get aligned on what success looks like in the first 90 days, even when you're not fully sure yourselfThe real cost of turnover: Gallup's 50-200% replacement cost in real dollars, and why this conversation is worth havingResources mentioned:liagarvin.com/contact: for support with interview process and onboarding structureLooking for support for yourself of your team?

"An apology without action is not accountability." Episode Chapters [02:30] Legal and logistical considerations in hiring [04:31] Importance of accountability when considering second chances [07:08] Why leaders force bad solutions [09:59] Signs of real accountability [11:20] Why apologies are not enough [13:29] Getting support with hiring decisions What should leaders do when a new hire fails to show up during their first days on the job? In this episode Tim Dyck and Jody Maberry discuss whether a second chance is appropriate when accountability and communication are already in question. Tim explains why leaders must balance empathy with practical decision making. The desire to simply fill a seat can lead to poor hiring choices. Ownership matters more than apologies when a hiring situation starts going sideways. There are certain things leaders should listen for when deciding whether to give someone a second chance. Listen for more on what accountability can reveal on whether the hiring situation can realistically move forward. Read the blog for more from this episode.

Most agents walk away from sellers who won't list. That's not a bad lead, that's a real estate toolbox expansion problem.If you only have one solution to offer, you're leaving commission on the table every single day. I know because I did it too. Then I built a hybrid real estate model that combined MLS listings with off-market wholesale assignments, and last year that produced $2.7M with just four salespeople. No new hires. No massive operation. The same team, a bigger toolbox.Here's what this covers:✅ Why the hybrid agent investor model works for licensed agents who already have a listing business, and how to add off-market without blowing up what's already working✅ How to train your existing listing agents to become acquisitions agents using the listing agent acquisitions agent approach, no extra headcount required✅ The three factors that tell you in the first conversation whether a seller is an MLS deal or an off-market wholesale assignment, condition, motivation, and why asking price is actually the least important of the three✅ How to present a cash offer at the listing appointment without confusing the seller or losing the listing conversation entirely✅ Why off market deals for real estate agents are sitting inside your current lead flow right now, you just need the right questions to find them✅ The script language that gives you permission to pivot between solutions in the same appointment, so you stop losing cash offer leads to investors who showed up ready to buyThis isn't complicated. You can do this with what you already have.

In this episode of the Ecomm Breakthrough Podcast, host Josh Hadley tackles a common entrepreneurial frustration: hiring seemingly qualified candidates who underperform within their first few months. Josh introduces his proven 30-60-90 day onboarding framework, broken into three phases: observation, independence, and ownership. Each phase features structured communication, daily reports, and objective performance evaluations using a custom GPT tool. Josh emphasizes the importance of clear role profiles, documented SOPs, and milestone-based progression to set new hires up for success and help business owners make informed retention decisions.Bullet Points:Challenges entrepreneurs face in hiring qualified team members who underperform.Introduction of a structured 30-60-90 day onboarding framework.Breakdown of the onboarding process into three phases: Observance, Independence, and Ownership.Importance of clear role profiles and key performance indicators (KPIs) for new hires.Emphasis on frequent communication and structured meetings during the onboarding process.Use of tools and technology to enhance onboarding and performance evaluation.Strategies for assessing new hires' progress and readiness to advance through onboarding phases.Flexibility in the timeline for onboarding based on individual performance.Importance of documenting standard operating procedures (SOPs) for clarity and consistency.The impact of a structured onboarding framework on business scaling and team success.Timestamps:00:00:00 The Problem with HiringEntrepreneurs hire seemingly qualified candidates who underperform, leading to frustration and the belief that they must do everything themselves.00:00:40 Introduction to the 30-60-90 Day FrameworkA structured onboarding framework to set clear expectations and objectively evaluate whether a new team member is succeeding or failing.00:01:11 Podcast and Host IntroductionJosh Hadley introduces himself, his e-commerce background, and the Econ Breakthrough Podcast before reintroducing the 30-60-90 day framework.00:02:19 Why Onboarding FailsMost entrepreneurs fail by having unclear expectations and assuming new hires can immediately perform miracles without proper guidance or systems.00:04:29 The Entrepreneur's Hiring MindsetEntrepreneurs must hire people smarter than themselves for both their weaknesses and strengths to compound business growth effectively.00:05:34 The Importance of a Clear Onboarding SequenceA dedicated onboarding process is crucial for clarity, speed, and objectivity, increasing a new hire's success rate significantly.00:06:41 The Role Profile TemplateBefore onboarding, a clear role profile defining KPIs, success metrics, and tasks is essential to avoid ambiguity for everyone.00:09:49 Using AI to Create Role ProfilesLeverage a custom GPT to quickly generate a comprehensive role profile template, completing 80% of the work for you.00:11:24 Overview of the Three Onboarding PhasesA high-level look at the three phases: Observance (Days 1-30), Independence (Days 31-60), and Ownership (Days 61-90).00:12:21 Phase 1: The Observance Period (Days 1-30)New hires watch, follow, and re-document existing processes to demonstrate understanding before making any changes or executing tasks.00:16:02 Meeting Cadence for Phase 1The communication schedule includes daily 15-minute huddles, a weekly 45-minute one-on-one, and a daily end-of-day report.00:18:50 The 30-Day Checkpoint GPTUsing a custom GPT to objectively evaluate a new hire's performance by answering questions about their impact and ownership behaviors.00:23:11 Phase 2: The Independence Period (Days 31-60)The new hire begins executing tasks in "draft mode," requiring manager approval before anything goes live, with reduced meeting frequency.00:29:25 Phase 3: The Ownership Period (Days 61-90)The team member takes full ownership, executing their role independently while the manager verifies work behind the scenes.00:35:10 Onboarding Framework SummaryA recap of the meeting cadences and work expectations for each of the three 30-day phases in the framework.00:36:33 Milestone-Based ProgressionThe 30, 60, and 90-day timelines are arbitrary; progression is based on milestones and demonstrating readiness to advance.00:39:03 The Role of HR and Pre-Onboarding PrepBefore day one, ensure the role profile is complete and existing SOPs are documented to set the new hire up for success.00:40:07 Why This Framework Matters for ScaleThis system increases your hiring "batting average," ensuring new team members succeed more often, which is critical for scaling.00:41:35 Call to Action and Access to ResourcesJosh asks listeners to review and share the podcast in exchange for access to the presentation slides and resources.Links and Mentions:Role Profile Creation"Role Profile Template": "00:07:38""Custom GPT for Role Profile Creation": "00:09:49"Hiring and Team Evaluation"YouTube Video on Hiring A+ Talent": "00:10:49""Custom GPT Checkpoint": "00:19:29"Process Documentation"Loom": "00:39:30"Transcript:Josh Hadley 00:00:00 Have you ever gone through an in-depth interviewing process to find A-level talent? And then you get the right person who has an incredible resume. They've passed all of your interviews and maybe even a case study or test project that you've given them. And then ultimately 30 days within the job, 60 days within the job. They're not performing. And you're frustrated, they're frustrated. And then you chalk it up to say, hey, I think I just need to go do this myself. Nobody can do this better than me. Screw it. With all of this hiring, if you've ever said that yourself, then this is for you. I'm going to walk you through the 30 60 90 day framework that we use to onboard every single new team member onto the team. That allows us to gain clarity not only from their perspective in terms of understanding their role, but from our perspective of understanding what the expectations are at 30 days, 60 days, and 90 days to where we know whether that new team member is winning or losing in their new role, and whether we should keep them, or if it's best to cut ties and free them back up to the marketplace to allow them to go do something that they are going to succeed at.Josh Hadley 00:01:11 Welcome to the Ecomm Breakthrough Podcast, I'm Josh Hadley.

On this episode Caleb discusses the logistical challenges of scaling a seven-figure landscaping business while integrating a completely inexperienced apprentice. He emphasizes that hiring for positive attitude over existing skill sets allows a leader to mold workers without having to break poor habits. To manage this "green" labor force effectively, Auman highlights the necessity of robust organizational systems, including color-coded tools, detailed digital documentation through Company Cam, and structured software like LMN for budgeting. He also explores broader economic trends affecting the labor pool and advocates for mentorship and clear communication to maintain productivity. Ultimately, the source serves as a guide for green industry professionals on how to leverage standard operating procedures to transform novice employees into skilled foremen.

Caleb talks with Sam Gembel regarding the essential principles of leadership and team management within the trades. Gembel emphasizes that business owners must define a clear vision and establish accountability to foster a "settled" company culture where employees feel secure. A significant portion of the discussion focuses on the idea that leaders should never project their personal motivations onto their staff, summarized by the mantra "never compare your why to someone else's why." Sam also address the 100% responsibility an organization holds for the success or failure of new hires, advocating for radical clarity in job expectations. (Part 2 of 2). Key Takeaways: Focus on your unique motivations and avoid comparing your personal goals or "why" to those of others. Practice clarity in your leadership by defining exactly what success looks like for every task you assign. Take 100% responsibility for the success of your team members by ensuring they have the training and parameters they need to thrive. Avoid promoting individuals into leadership positions if they do not have a genuine desire or purpose to lead. Prioritize your own personal growth and self-leadership to become a more effective and inspiring leader for those around you. Connect with Auman Landscape
Pay transparency is no longer just a "nice to have" feature for job postings: in many provinces and states, it is now a legal requirement. It's not enough to add the numbers to a posting - consider what your other employees will think when it shows up on a posting for a job similar to theirs and - wow! - it's more than they are paid! This shift will force an overhaul of internal compensation structures. In this episode, I speak with Sean Raible, founder of Game Plan Total Rewards, to break down the actual work required to stay compliant without totally eroding trust. We discuss: - The layers of legislation across BC, Ontario, and the US. - The 5-step framework for implementing a transparent pay program. - How to handle "compression" when new hires expect more than current staff. - Why 'crawl, walk, run' is a good approach to this work - The surprising impact transparency has on applicant volume. 00:00 The reality of pay transparency laws 01:10 The implications of 2026 deadlines 02:35 Building a compensation philosophy from scratch 04:10 Why pay discussions trigger high emotion 05:30 Regional nuances 07:10 More on the variation between jurisdictions 09:15 How transparency increases applicant resumes 10:45 Five steps to implement transparency 13:10 Sustaining your compensation program long-term 16:30 Avoiding the "New Hire" pay trap 18:50 Timeline: How long implementation takes 21:50 Managing high-salary demands from candidates **Find Sean Raible** Website: https://gameplantotalrewards.ca/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/seanraible/ **Find Andrea Adams (me)** Website: https://thehrhub.ca/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/andrea-adams1/
