Episode Summary:The Advisory Board Podcast — Featuring Pete First of BrightStar Care Episode sponsored by ClientTether — big thanks to them for supporting the franchise community.In this episode, Dave Hansen welcomes Pete First, Chief Development Officer at BrightStar Care, to unpack what it really takes to grow a franchise brand with staying power. With over 25 years in the franchise development world, Pete brings both sharp strategy and a grounded, people-first mindset — two things BrightStar is clearly doing right.BrightStar stands out in the home care space thanks to a clinical foundation built around registered nurses making care decisions, and a franchise model that prioritizes compassion just as much as profitability. According to Pete, many of their franchisees are drawn to the brand not just for the business opportunity but because of personal experiences with caregiving. That emotional tie-in matters — and they don't bring in candidates who don't genuinely care. “Don't blow your career on one deal,” Pete says, reinforcing that protecting culture starts with who you let in.Throughout the conversation, Pete and Dave dig into what makes a franchise brand grow the right way — and it's not a quick-fix formula. It starts with building a brand that's meaningful and trustworthy, then reinforcing that trust through validation. BrightStar empowers franchisees to vet incoming candidates, keeping cultural alignment tight across the network. And yes — your brand isn't your logo or your color palette. It's your people.Pete also breaks down BrightStar's approach to marketing and lead nurturing, and it's anything but passive. With a smart mix of targeted pay-per-click, drip campaigns, weekly content, and strategic video — they stay in front of candidates for years. Literally. One owner came back after five years of opening BrightStar emails — and converted. That kind of patience and consistency reflects a team that knows timing is everything.One of the biggest takeaways from Pete? Long-term growth only works if your operations can support it. BrightStar's 27-month onboarding program ensures new franchisees don't just launch — they scale smartly. Weekly coaching, segment-based support teams, and strong communication with franchisees keep things steady even as the system grows.There's also a refreshing honesty in how Pete talks about AI's impact on lead sourcing and content visibility. He acknowledges the landscape is changing fast — search traffic from ChatGPT and other AI platforms is now a meaningful pipeline source — and BrightStar is adjusting accordingly. Video plays a major role too, especially authentic, unscripted content from franchisees themselves.The bottom line? If you want a franchise brand that lasts, you need heart, hustle, and the infrastructure to support both. BrightStar's not perfect — no brand is — but they're doing a lot of things right. And Pete's transparency makes this episode a must-listen for anyone thinking about franchise growth in 2025 and beyond.You can reach Pete at pete.first@brightstarcare.com or find him on LinkedIn. And again, huge thanks to ClientTether for sponsoring this episode.

They share personal experiences, insights on the challenges faced by law enforcement professionals, and the need for open discussions about mental health. The conversation emphasizes the significance of seeking help, maintaining balance in life, and the role of leadership in fostering a supportive environment.TakeawaysMental health is crucial for officers to perform effectively.Seeking help is not a sign of weakness but a strength.Onboarding families into the law enforcement culture is essential.Physical health should be prioritized alongside mental health.Building relationships is key in leadership roles.There is life after law enforcement; it's important to seek help.Support systems are vital for first responders.Shaun KlucznikEmail: ShaunK@aja.orgLinkedIn Support the showCritical Aspects Website IG: @critical_aspectsIG: @pastorvernin: @Dr. Vernon Phillips

In der Podcast-Folge #136 von Klartext HR spricht Stefan Scheller mit Elena Kelava, über das Thema „KI-Onboarding: - das neue MustDo“. Künstliche Intelligenz hält auch in HR-Einzug. Der Bereich Onboarding bietet sich in mehrfacher Hinsicht an, um dort KI einzusetzen. KI-Onboarding könnte gar das neue „MustDo“ werden. Mit Elena spreche ich darüber,
 * dass Onboarding zwar nach Erzeugen von viel menschlicher Nähe klingt, warum KI aber hier dennoch ein wichtiger Partner ist * welche Inhalte sich besonders für eine KI-Unterstützung eignen und warum. * warum KI-Skills in vielen Unternehmen noch unterentwickelt sind und wie HR das ändern kann. * wo sie Bereiche sieht, die im Onboarding bewusst „KI-frei“ gehalten werden sollten. Elena Kelava ist Head of Customer Marketing in der Modebranche. In ihrer Rolle verbindet sie datengetriebenes Performance Marketing, SEO, digitale Innovationen im E-Commerce und den sinnvollen Einsatz von KI. Sowohl beruflich als auch privat beschäftigt sie sich intensiv mit künstlicher Intelligenz und der Frage, wie Technologie sinnvoll und verantwortungsvoll in Unternehmen integriert werden kann. Mit ihrer Hands-on-Mentalität und langjährigen Erfahrung im Online-Marketing bewegt sich Elena an der Schnittstelle zwischen Kreativität, Strategie und messbarem Erfolg. Als Speakerin spricht sie regelmäßig über AI, Marketing-Transformation und digitale Verantwortung und ist überzeugt: Wandel sollte nicht nur gemanagt, sondern aktiv gestaltet werden. >> LinkedIn-Profil von Elena Kelava: https://www.linkedin.com/in/elena-kelava-expert-performance-seo-ai >> weitere Folgen Klartext HR: https://persoblogger.de/klartext-hr >> Lernen Sie auch das Podcast-Format YOUR HR STAGE von Stefan Scheller kennen: https://persoblogger.de/your-hr-stage

Führungsfehler im Vertrieb: Diese 5 Fehler ruinieren dein Team – und so vermeidest du sie   Führungsfehler im Vertrieb sind oft die unsichtbare Bremse für dein Sales-Team. Du kannst Top-Verkäufer eingestellt haben – wenn du sie falsch führst, bleibt der Erfolg aus. In dieser VertriebsFunk-Episode spreche ich mit Rouven Kramer über fünf entscheidende Fehler in der Führung von Vertriebsteams – und wie du sie garantiert vermeiden kannst.   Rouven ist Teamleiter bei einem internationalen SaaS-Unternehmen mit einem großen EMEA-ADR-Team. Gemeinsam analysieren wir, wie moderne Vertriebsführung heute funktioniert – und welche klassischen Führungsfehler im Vertrieb dich Performance, Motivation und Top-Talente kosten.   Ein klassischer Führungsfehler im Vertrieb: fehlende oder ständig wechselnde Zielmetriken. Verkäufer brauchen Klarheit – sonst verlieren sie den Fokus. Ein zweiter Fehler: falsche Incentives. Wer nur die Anzahl der Termine bewertet, demotiviert auf Dauer. Rouven zeigt, wie qualitative Zielsysteme aussehen können – inklusive Motivation durch faire Vergütung.   Ein weiterer fataler Fehler: Vertriebsleiter, die selbst verkaufen. Wenn du als Führungskraft eigene Quoten erfüllst, kannst du dein Team nicht wirklich führen. Coaching, 1:1-Meetings und persönliche Entwicklung bleiben auf der Strecke. Rouven erklärt, wie er jede Woche Coaching- und Forecast-Gespräche sauber trennt – für maximale Wirkung.   Auch beliebt, aber gefährlich: Monkey-Management. Du löst alle Probleme selbst – dein Team bleibt passiv. Moderne Führung bedeutet, Blocker zu entfernen und Verantwortung sinnvoll zu übertragen. Rouven zeigt, wie du dein Team befähigst, selbst zu denken und zu handeln – mit spürbarer Entlastung für dich und echtem Ownership im Team.   Wenn du diese fünf Führungsfehler im Vertrieb vermeiden willst, ist diese Episode für dich ein Muss. Egal ob du schon Führungskraft bist oder bald eine wirst – hier bekommst du konkrete Beispiele, Insights und Sofort-Tipps für moderne Vertriebsführung.

In episode 207, Coffey talks with Nicole Morgan about what HR professionals need to know about Medicare to help employees navigate the transition from employer-provided health insurance to Medicare coverage. They discuss the four main parts of Medicare (A, B, C, and D) and how they work together; the differences between Medicare Advantage plans (Part C) and traditional Medicare with supplemental coverage; how creditable coverage determinations affect employees who continue working past age 65; the coordination of benefits between employer group health plans and Medicare based on company size; timing considerations for Medicare enrollment and the importance of planning three months before turning 65; why brokers may have financial incentives to sell Medicare Advantage plans over traditional Medicare; the risks and benefits of different Medicare options including network limitations and out-of-pocket maximums; and the role HR should play in connecting employees with qualified Medicare experts rather than providing specific coverage advice. Good Morning, HR is brought to you by Imperative—Bulletproof Background Checks.

In this short segment of the Revenue Builders Podcast, we revisit the discussion with George Mogannam, CRO of Celigo, to explore the foundational gaps that hinder scalable growth—particularly in recruiting, onboarding, and team cohesion. George unpacks what most companies miss when trying to scale, including the absence of ideal hiring profiles, lack of onboarding discipline, and broken internal processes. He also emphasizes the power of in-person connection, the hidden cost of remote culture, and the importance of aligning internal teams during growth surges.KEY TAKEAWAYS[00:00:25] Common Gaps in Scaling Sales Teams: Many organizations lack ideal hiring profiles, onboarding processes, KPIs, and operational rhythms.[00:01:40] Remote Work's Cultural Void: Remote work has eroded the informal peer-to-peer learning and camaraderie critical to high-performing sales teams.[00:02:37] Why In-Person Teams Outperform: George shares research that shows 4x higher churn in remote teams versus co-located ones—highlighting the need for centralized sales orgs.[00:03:37] The True ROI of Sales Kickoffs: More than training, it's the peer interaction, story-sharing, and cross-learning that drive culture and performance.[00:04:30] The Overlooked Bottleneck in Scaling: Many CROs underestimate internal readiness for hiring sprees, especially around slow offer letter processes and internal misalignment.[00:06:59] Fixing Internal Bottlenecks: George details how his team automated contract counter-signatures to reduce booking delays and avoid customer disruptions.QUOTES[00:01:14] “There's a sales process, but no one's really utilizing it… there's no discipline around it.”[00:02:01] “You will get four times higher churn when everybody's remote versus when people are together.”[00:03:37] “The priceless part comes from them all engaging together... more powerful than all the formal training.”[00:04:59] “Companies don't realize they're a walking audition for what it's going to be like to work for them.”[00:06:41] “That's how you burn cash in an organization—when internal readiness doesn't match external hiring urgency.”[00:07:27] “If the order isn't executed at the proper time, we can accidentally shut the customer off.”Listen to the full conversation through the link below.https://revenue-builders.simplecast.com/episodes/scaling-high-growth-sales-organizations-with-george-mogannamEnjoying the podcast?

One of the final steps in the hiring process that can cause a lot of stress and anxiety is the pre-employment background check which is why I am thrilled to be bringing you this conversation with Kristy Wheeler-Scott, an HR professional with over 8 years of experience, to get the inside scoop on what to expect! Kristy explains that background checks are a very important part of the hiring process, allowing employers to verify qualifications, minimize risk, and ensure cultural fit. While the specific details can vary by industry and organization, most background checks cover criminal records, employment history, education, and sometimes even credit checks. The key, Kristy shares, is to be proactive and get yourself organized ahead of time. Have your resume handy and double-check the dates and details rather than relying solely on your memory. Gather supporting documents such as offer letters, pay stubs, and W-2s so you can quickly provide verification if needed, and be sure to accurately represent your education and any certifications or credentials, without exaggerating. We chat about the importance of having the right attitude. This background check process is essentially your "first assignment,” an opportunity to demonstrate your professionalism and responsiveness, so stay transparent, authentic, and timely in your communications. Rushing through the forms or getting defensive will only create more delays and headaches. This can all feel very daunting, but Kristy's insights are so invaluable. With the right preparation and mindset, you can set yourself up for a smooth background check experience, and, of course, always remember, the team here at ROCS is always here to support you through this transition, so feel free to reach out anytime if you have additional questions! Key Takeaways:  Background checks are common in the hiring process to verify qualifications, employment history, and education and to minimize risks. Prepare by gathering supporting documentation such as offer letters, pay stubs, and W-2s. Strive for accuracy by referencing your resume and not just relying on memory. Candidates should be honest about education credentials, indicating if a degree was not completed. Maintain a professional, responsive, and transparent attitude throughout the background check process. Read instructions carefully and reach out with any questions to ensure a smooth process.   Thanks again for listening to Leaving The Nest! To find your next job, visit us at ROCS Grad Staffing.

In episode 206, Coffey talks with Jill Koob about the Supreme Court decision on “reverse discrimination,” PTO policy trends, and AI adoption in the workplace. They discuss the Supreme Court's unanimous decision in Ames v. Ohio Department of Youth Services eliminating different standards for "reverse discrimination" cases; how Title VII protects all individuals equally regardless of majority or minority status within protected classes; the challenges and failures of unlimited PTO policies leading employees to take less time off; new flexible PTO approaches allowing conversion to cash, student loan payments, or 401k contributions; mitigating bias in the employee selection process; why diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives should focus on business outcomes and widening candidate pools; the evolution of AI from individual productivity tools to organizational workforce transformation; the need for employees to actively learn and adopt AI tools to remain competitive; and how AI can handle transactional HR tasks while freeing professionals to focus on more strategic human-centered work. Links to stuff they talked about are on our website at https://goodmorninghr.com/EP206 and include the following topics: Breaking—Supreme Court Unanimously Lowers Bar for “Reverse Discrimination” Claims: Ames v.
