Podcasts about one new person

Today's business tip stems from a reminder to really hone in and focus on your goals, and when you do that, you won't be as afraid to do an uncomfortable thing or talk to one new person. Just one new person a day you get in front of adds up to 365 new people a year. What are you waiting for?

Today's guest is Zoe Chance.Zoe is one of the world's foremost researchers and speakers on ethical influence and persuasion. She's a beloved Yale professor who teaches the most popular course at the School of Management: Mastering Influence and Persuasion.Her new book, Influence Is Your Superpower: The Science of Winning Hearts, Sparking Change, and Making Good Things Happen, is based on that course.Zoe is also a dear friend and collaborator who helped me craft my now famous TEDx talk back in 2015. She is the first ever repeat guest on this podcast, having joined me way back in Season 1 when this show was called One New Person.Interestingly, that interview came at a time when Zoe was at the very crossroads that eventually led to this book. And that's where this conversation picks up.We spoke about doing what you love, how to write an academic book that feels conversational and friendly, and why the book had to change completely in response to COVID. Diving into the book itself we focused largely on the power of framing as a tool of influence, which includes a discussion of mind readers, magicians, and gorillas. We also touched on how timing can be used to positively influence someone, and offer advice on how to stop turning people off by asking to “pick their brain” or “buy them a cup of coffee.”Finally, Zoe offers one critical piece of advice to young professionals trying to navigate this crazy, ever-changing world.I had the honor of reading Influence Is Your Superpower cover to cover as an advance publisher's copy, and my one-sentence review is:This book is Robert Cialdini for the kindness generation.Grab your copy of Influence Is Your Superpower here: https://amzn.to/3qX4WrU Connect with Zoe:https://ZoeChance.comhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/zoebchance/

The people of Christ cannot simply give up and walk away from each other in conflict, because we are a part of the same body.

Pam Paydos is a beloved Connecticut-based entrepreneur and restaurateur who long-time listeners of this podcast will remember. In fact, Pam was the very first guest ever on this show, back when it was called One New Person. When everything shut down, restaurants were the first and most visible industry to pivot, shifting to take-out only and building the foundation of curbside pickup, now a mainstay in our culture. Can you remember a time without curbside pickup?In Pam’s case, it was even trickier. Her current restaurant is a bistro and bakery, designed around a small-town ambience and community tables in a very tight space. She didn’t have the systems or staff to do take-out.But almost a year later, Popover Bistro and Bakery remains a pillar of the community. In this conversation Pam walks us through the nightmare of her Pivot. Pay attention to how her unwavering commitment to staying alive kept her going, even in the darkest of times.A word before you listen: In true COVID fashion, we had a lot of Internet difficulties during this particular recording. Due to an intermittent Internet connection, I had to ask Pam to repeat her stories many times, which was frustrating for both of us. I was already asking her to relive incredibly difficult and emotional moments that were still fresh. I felt awful asking her to repeat them. As such, this episode will feel a little pieced together. I did the best I could to take the highest quality pieces of the recording and splice them into a coherent conversation.Still, there’s SO much good stuff here. Thank you Pam, for being so understanding in the midst of chaos.Connect with PamPopover Bistro & Bakery website: https://www.popoversimsbury.com/

That's right - he makes a living producing and debating ideas.Matt has shared the stage and gone toe-to-toe with many of today's intellectual heavyweights, including Richard Dawkins, Sam Harris, Jordan Peterson- the list just goes on.He is also the co-host The Atheist Experience, a popular Texas-based webcast- but if that's not your jam, don't worry.

Today's guest is Peter Guzzardi, a legendary book editor who worked with Stephen Hawking on "A Brief History of Time," Susan Cain on "Quiet," and Deepak Chopra on "Ageless Body, Timeless Mind," just to name a few. After 40 years in publishing Peter has authored his first book, "Emeralds of Oz: Life Lessons from Over the Rainbow." In this episode we chat about what exactly an editor's role is in the publishing process, the timeless wisdom contained in the Wizard of Oz, and Peter shares his story of a chance encounter with lasting impact. We had some Internet issues during this call, which took place in the middle of his book tour. It's a little wonky towards the beginning and again at the end, but crystal clear for the vast majority. I think you'll find Peter's warmth and insight transcends the occasional audio blip.

Christie and I clicked immediately, and you'll hear why in this episode. We learn from Christie what exactly management consulting is, and for those thinking about the field, she answers the burning question, Should you go to school for it? We discuss vulnerability and authenticity at length, a topic that is quickly become a core theme of this season, as you'll see in upcoming episodes. Our conversation moves to human connection and how to find common ground in any situation. And of course, Christie shares her story of a chance encounter with lasting impact.

Today's guest is Zoe Chance, a renowned expert in influence and persuasion techniques and an Assistant Professor of Marketing at Yale's University's School of Management, but my audience knows her best as the "I like your hat" lady. The story of how I met Zoe is very public, but in case you haven't heard it, here's the short version: We met on a plane, sitting next to each other, when she opened a conversation by saying, "I like your hat." I had no idea those four words would change the course of my life. In this episode, Zoe and I get into the nitty-gritty on the power of no: How to say no, why to say no, and why saying 'no' may be the most generous thing you can do. We chat in-depth about how to influence others in a way where both people come out ahead, and of course Zoe shares her story of a chance encounter with lasting impact. Oh - and as a bonus, we finally get to hear her side of the "I like your hat" story. And yes, it's the first time I was hearing it as well. So please enjoy this epic Season 1 finale of One New Person.

Today's guest is Dr. Amanda Howerton-Fox, an assistant professor of language and literacy, TEDx speaker, and thought leader on deaf culture. I was lucky enough to be in the audience for Amanda's TEDx talk, entitled "Language Beyond the Sound Barrier," and found her insights into deaf culture so fascinating, I knew I had to bring her on the show. We spoke about her wild and winding career path, her counter-intuitive work in deaf education, and of course, Amanda shares her story of a chance encounter with lasting impact.

Today's guest is Dr. Don Dizon, a renowned oncologist specializing in women's cancers and affiliated with a handful of top medical institutions including Lifespan Cancer Institute, Rhode Island Hospital, and Brown University. Don and I met in 2017 when we were both speaking at a patient experience conference held by Teva Pharmaceuticals in Barcelona. Like discovering a lost sibling we were joined at the hip the entire conference, and have been friends ever since. This conversation is full of fascinating twists and turns. We discussed how Don created a balance between his beautiful family and a prestigious career, why he believes all medical professionals should be embracing social media, and of course, Don shares his story of a chance encounter with lasting impact. Our interview was scheduled for the day of crazy snowstorm, so Don ended up calling in from his home office, which means you might hear a bit of his family jostling around in the background. As far as I'm concerned, it made the conversation that much more relatable. Show Notes Don's ASCO column Follow Don on Twitter and Instagram @drdonsdizon

Today's guest is Michael Kent, an award-winning world class entertainer and self-described "comic, magician, and smartass." Michael was my hero as a young aspiring comedy magician, who graciously became a mentor from afar, and eventually someone I now call a colleague and a friend. He is one of the most thoughtful and considered artists I know, and this conversation was nothing less than enlightening. We discussed how to handle shame and self-worth as an artist or entrepreneur, how he found a niche in a hyper competitive field, and of course, Michael shares his story of a chance encounter with lasting impact. And like everything he does, his story is a brilliant twist on my established format. This conversation lasted for nearly an hour and 20 minutes, so you're only getting about half of it here.

Zakia Lieske is the Event Program Manager for Inova Heart & Vascular Institute. I met Zakia just last year when she hired me to speak at Inova's 3rd Patient Experience Conference. We connected instantly, but as you'll find out, she seems to do that with almost everyone. In this episode we discuss the difference between event planning and event managing (hint: it's all about leadership roles), the importance of working with and hiring the right people, and of course, Zakia shares her story of a chance encounter with lasting impact. And it's truly an epic tale.

Jonah Babins is a professional magician, producer, co-owner of the Toronto Magic Company, and fellow podcast host. His show Discourse in Magic brings on magicians and variety entertainers to discuss theory and business, rather than tricks. He was gracious enough to invite me on his show back in 2017, and now that I've got my own, I figured it would be fun to flip the script. In this episode we discuss why you should deeply consider how and why you do the things you do, how to put more of yourself in your work, and of course, his story of a chance encounter with lasting impact.

Carolyn Schrier is the Director of Marketing for Mitzvah Market, a comprehensive resource for Jewish families planning their Bar & Bat Mitzvah celebrations. Carolyn and I met just a few years ago at one of their vendor showcases, where families get to interact with DJs, caterers, entertainers, decorators - if you've ever been to a wedding or bridal expo, it's like that, but for 13 year-olds. In this episode we discuss how Carolyn went from a degree in economics to a career in service of the Jewish community, why we should refrain from judging how others choose to celebrate special occasions, and of course, her story of a chance encounter with lasting impact. And by the way, her story literally moved me to tears over and over again during post production.

Kasey Quaglia is the studio coordinator at Summit Studios, a hip performing arts center in Manchester, Connecticut. Kasey and I met in 2010 when I walked into Summit looking to offer children's magic instruction. Although we started as colleagues, Kasey quickly became one of my dearest friends. She was even a bridesmaid in my wedding just a few years ago. Kasey is one of the kindest, most generous people you'll ever meet. This episode covers the day-to-day responsibilities of a studio coordinator, how an art degree unexpectedly led to mastering human connection, and of course, Kasey's story of a chance encounter with lasting impact. Show Notes -Here is Seth Godin's life changing book Linchpin: Are You Indispensable? -Kasey recalled Richard Linklater's film Waking Life: "Hey, can we do that again? I know we haven't met but...
