In today's competitive, capital-strapped market, getting your business funded is a lot harder than it used to be. Entrepreneurs have access to a fraction of the funding that was easily available just a few years ago. Investors want a sure thing, so founders are jumping through a lot more hoops to get capital. It's not enough to have an initial idea or a working prototype. You need to have significant traction, social proof, a reputable team, initial revenue, founder-market fit….anything to de-risk the investment. This sounds grim, but it doesn't mean you can't get an investor to write you a check, even if you're in the earlier stages. How do you make sure you still get funded in this environment? Is this financing freeze going to thaw? Why does content creation make it easier to get funded? In this episode, I'm joined by 7-time funded founder, startup advisor, Chief Strategy Officer at Startups.com, Ed Kang. He shares the challenges in the current capital-raising space, and how entrepreneurs can still get the funding they need.  Topics Covered; The EXTRA role founders must take on when capital is scarce How to give investors exactly want they're looking for How to self-fund and bootstrap while you raise capital Easy ways to build traction and gain social proof   Guest Bio Ed Kang is a 7-time funded founder, startup advisor, executive coach, author, Organization Development Consultant and Chief Strategy Officer at Startups.com.

I'm excited to explore how to create a high impact business out of your soul, and learn more about Puja's background and how she uniquely blends spirituality and entrepreneurship. We discuss the contrast between the two worlds she was living in: one was soft, with the meditation centers, and the other was hard, with the tech startups. We also explore why we are set up to be so disintegrated in the world, and how Puja's journey led her to be a leader in coaching and supporting those who are purpose driven but running out of fire. (0:08:57) - The Natural Progression of Integration (6 Minutes) We explore how nature provides us with a blueprint of integration and harmony, and how this can be applied to our own spiritual evolution. Puja's Amplify Model is examined, which is her own journey that she has used to help her clients, and how it can provide clarity in our values, vision and voice. We question why our natural inclination is to quickly jump into strategy without taking time for the inner work, and explore how this can be linked to our trauma and sense of survival. (0:15:20) - Self-Connection for Success (9 Minutes) We discuss how easily we can be tricked into thinking that we are hustling and working hard, but still feel empty and unfulfilled. We explore the importance of reflection to look at how we are approaching our service-based business, and how to recognize if we are recreating our career or if we are doing work that is meaningful and valuable to us. We also talk about the importance of connecting with our self in order to un-learn what is not authentic, and how to come to a place of grounding and integration to do the work that comes from our presence. (0:24:21) - The Energy Triangle (5 Minutes) Puja's Amplified Life Triangle is important for entrepreneurs to understand energy management. We explore how to create a balance between logical and analytical masculine energy and intuitive feminine energy. We also discuss ways to nourish ourselves mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually to help sustain our creative goals. Lastly, we talk about how energy, time, and mindset interact with one another and how we can use this to be more intentional and conscious of how we are using our resources. (0:29:27) - The Importance of Self-Energy Strategy (11 Minutes) I chat with Puja Madan about the importance of deep spiritual work and how it sets in motion a bigger path and purpose. Puja explains how it takes time to fully percolate and that we need to give ourselves permission, time and space to up level energetically and spiritually.

Finally, we discuss the importance of trusting the process and divine timing, no matter how long it takes. (0:40:14) - Aligning Values and Genius in Work (7 Minutes) Today I'm talking with Puja Madan about the importance of setting intentional time for self-care and reflection. We explore how to create a balance between logic and intuition, how to build a framework that aligns with our values and purpose, and how deep spiritual work can set in motion a bigger path and purpose. Puja shares her Amplified Life Triangle and how it can help entrepreneurs manage their energy and recognize when it's time to uplevel or introduce a new program. We also talk about how nature provides us with a blueprint of integration and harmony, and how to pay attention to our energy when making decisions. Finally, Puja shares how doing things from an overflow of joy can help us scale our business naturally. (0:47:00) - Letting Go Rituals and Creating Space (7 Minutes) Today, I'm talking to Puja Madan about releasing programs or courses that are no longer resonating with our current path. We emphasize the importance of taking the time to meditate, pray, and feel what is true to our bodies, and to honor the gifts that something has brought into our lives. We explore a gratitude practice for letting go, and how to create space for something new to come in. We discuss the idea of a flash sale to give a proper goodbye, and how to invite in positive energy for the next phase of our careers. Finally, Puja shares how to work with her and get in touch. (0:53:40) - Power of Intuition and Self-Connection (3 Minutes) Today, I'm talking to Puja Madan about the power of following intuition and how it drives our decisions and actions. We focus on the importance of connecting with our inner self and spiritual core to create a reset in our lives. We discuss how this connection allows us to make decisions from a place of alignment and trust, and how it leads to courage to say no to things that are not in alignment. Puja shares her own experiences of how connecting to her intuition guided her in selling her house, relocating to Denver, and how it has changed her approach to her business and clients. (0:56:51) - Soulful Business Growth (2 Minutes) Puja's story of vulnerability and willingness to show up as their authentic self without putting on masks or facades is moving and makes them magnetic and compelling to their people. We use nature's blueprint of integration and harmony to spiritually evolve, and how we can be tricked into thinking we are hustling and working hard, yet still be feeling empty and unfulfilled. We focus on Puja's Amplified Life Triangle and how to create a balance between logic and emotion, deep spiritual work, and setting intentional time for self-care and reflection.

It all starts with meaningful conversations. That's what Jenny Herald's guest on this episode of Dreams With Deadlines believes, and he's got data points to back it up.Devon Brown of Inciting Leaders shares insights on the evolution we've seen over the past decade from traditional top-down performance management techniques to a more continuous, ongoing framework that encourages ongoing communication.Key Things Discussed Why meaningful results start with meaningful peer-to-peer conversation The difference between (and mechanics behind) one-on-ones versus check-ins How to apply OKRs and measure for individual success within a team context Driving what matters: Choosing to emphasize behavior, delivery or both The future of performance management – what it looks like and what it needs Show Notes [00:00:35] About innovating the transition from traditional performance management to continuous performance management, starting in 2009 and accelerating as the function has shifted away from HR. [00:01:50] Why shifting the performance management model away from top-down annual event to ongoing, frequent conversations empowers managers and employees. [00:03:04] About the potent combination of Conversation, Feedback and Recognition (CFRs) with Objectives & Key Results (OKRs) at the heart of visionary leadership. [00:04:06] What poor management looks like versus a continuous, integrative approach that seeks to develop skills and adapt to situations on an ongoing basis. [00:06:33] Distinguishing between leaders and managers, where their skills overlap and why their tendencies are often (wrongly) conflated: Leaders create change while managers react to/execute on it. Leaders are people-focused while managers tend to be process-oriented. Leaders seek feedback while managers avoid or minimize vulnerabilities. [00:09:00] How the tension between organizational, team and individual application of OKRs can be managed to create a culture that supports progress across the enterprise. [00:14:30] Applying OKRs to and measuring for individual success – and growth – within a team context within a robust continuous performance management framework. [00:17:28] Why performance management is trending towards a team emphasis: Increasingly complex global and internal business structures The intensifying need for cross-departmental communication and collaboration [00:18:43] Defining “check-in” versus “one-on-one” conversations: Check-ins are ongoing conversations about performance, development, expectations wellbeing, and general feedback. One-on-Ones are solution-oriented, task-oriented, operationally-oriented and tactical. [00:20:25] A deeper dive into the big-picture, strategic nature of “check-ins”, including these four types: Assessing and adjusting to effectively manage expectations and goals. Short- and longer-term career development. Ongoing feedback conversations, both positive and negative. Overall, holistic well-being within a personal and professional context. [00:22:50] Why well-being conversations are key to the current workplace landscape: Pandemic-related recognition that people are not computers and have emotions. Potentially isolating hybrid conditions. The need to be in touch with whether workers are engaged – or not. To maximize retention and corporate loyalty. [00:27:01] How “performance” and “relational” currencies impact outcomes – and why. [00:29:13] Driving what matters: A look at which levers to pull in measuring for success and how they vary based on whether the emphasis is on behavior, delivery or both. [00:34:16] Distinguishing between the “what” (results) and the “how” (behavioral) in managing OKRs for both teams/individuals. [00:37:00] About identifying and incentivizing individual behaviors that build towards positive team results (without leaving behind a trainwreck). [00:41:20] Looking at the future of performance management: A move away from the individual towards team management through ongoing feedback. A tremendous need for enhanced leadership and training for stronger ongoing conversations at all levels of the enterprise. Integrative software systems to support ongoing agility and adaptability. [00:46:39] Quick-Fire Questions for Devon: What is your dream with a deadline? To impact 1,000 leaders in 2023 with positive downstream results across company cultures and individual lives. What is the No. 1 thing leaders can be doing to uplevel performance? There's no one thing, but frequent and ongoing conversations are essential. What advice would you give to people undertaking an OKR journey? It's easy to get excited by the idea of results, but stay attuned to how concepts like stretch and transformation actually fit into your workplace culture and history. What book has shaped the way you think about leadership and performance management? "The Leadership Pipeline: How to Build the Leadership Powered Company," by Ram Charan, Stephen Drotter and Jim Noel. "The Coaching Habit: Say Less, Ask More & Change the Way You Lead Forever," by Michael Bungay Stanier.

Do you want to know what executives in world-class companies think about leadership and why they hire consultants and coaches? Today, I'm chatting with one of my favorite executives of all time, Jim MacPhee, recently retired Chief Operating Officer and self-proclaimed Experience Steward for Walt Disney World Parks and Resorts. He is also the author of the newly released book Engage, Inspire, Lead. I have worked on and off with Jim since 1999, first as his Organization Development Consultant at Disney and, more recently, as a sounding board when he retired from his 43-year career. I invited Jim to join me on the show for several reasons. First, I have been talking for the last few episodes about the importance of not just identifying your ideal client but getting in their hearts and minds so you can position yourself, products/services, and copy to connect with them. But figuring out how executives think can be challenging for consultants and coaches if we haven't been executives before. So, I thought, why not bring on some of my former clients so you can hear for yourself? Second, Jim is one of the best executives and lives the values driving consultants and coaches like us, especially around purpose and relationship. It's hard to stay encouraged in our short-term profit-obsessed world that these unicorn executives exist. But they do. Jim offers powerful insight into what created his leadership philosophies and practices. In this episode, you'll hear why: Leaders must surround themselves with people who dare to think differently and will be honest. All your experiences, obvious or not, add to your greater purpose and work as a leader. Great leaders can't lead from an ivory tower and need to know what it's like on the front lines. Consultants and coaches succeed or fail when dealing with the C-Suite. Ready for new ways of thinking about leadership and actionable inspiration to find and work with C-Suite executives (or executives on their way to the C-Suite) like Jim? You will not want to miss this episode. This interview is THAT powerful. Where to dive in: [6:55] Hear about Jim's first leadership role at Disney and how he navigated that time in 1978. [11:34] Jim shares the Disney park most dear to his heart and how he navigated the massive growth the park experienced with its opening. [14:50] Betsy shares the seeds of Jim's philosophy as he talks about his early experiences at Disney. [22:36] What is the difference between a leader and a manager? Hear why Jim's mindfulness approach influences how things get done and, ultimately, great leadership. [27:56] Hear about the provocative organizational structure Jim created for Animal Kingdom, how it was ahead of its time, and his major regret. [32:10] Jim shares why leaders must surround themselves with people who dare to think differently. [39:09] Betsy labels Jim's superpower and talks about being a generalist leader and how it relates to his book. [45:03] Hear about Jim's leadership principles and personal beliefs. [52:02] Why you need a specialist and generalist mindset to balance day-to-day and a long-term vision. [1:08] Tune in for Jim's advice to consultants and coaches advising the C-Suite. What's next: Buy Jim's new book if you need to develop your Circle of Influence, get in balance, and lean into time-tested leadership guidance.
