In this episode I explore how to handle difficult as a school leader. This discussion is particularly pertinent for school leaders, teachers, and anyone in a managerial role who grapples with the challenge of providing feedback that is both impactful and compassionate. I start by sharing my experiences as a department lead, reflecting on the anxiety and uncertainty I faced when addressing a colleague's underperformance. This personal story leads into an in-depth look at the COIN framework, a structured approach developed by organsational consultant Anna Carroll, which is designed to help leaders deliver clear, effective, and non-confrontational feedback. The COIN model, which stands for Context, Observation, Impact, and Next Steps, is broken down with practical examples. I demonstrate its utility in various difficult situations, like discussing unmet responsibilities and dealing with sensitive issues such as sexist language in the workplace. Throughout the episode, I emphasise the significance of this framework in turning challenging conversations into chances for growth and mutual understanding, thus nurturing a more positive workplace atmosphere. Key Quotes:"Life is full of difficult conversations. We've all had them, we've all squirmed through them.""Using a framework or system makes these challenging conversations feel a bit more manageable.""The COIN model is an acronym for Context, Observation, Impact, and Next Step.""This framework... helps free up some of your cognitive space, which is crucial in these challenging situations."

Cicero said “what society does to its children, so will its children do to society.”  As parents we have certain aspirations. We want our kids to know we love them. We want to be proud of them. We want them to grow, develop and be happy. Maybe we want to overcome our own poor parenting, or lack of parenting and be the change we always hoped for. When you think of the question “how do you want your kids to describe you?” what comes to mind? For me I want my kids to say that I was an example of a growth mindset, constantly learning, improving and living a healthy life. I want them to say that I embodied what I taught and that my life was one of crescendo, not stopping and getting stuck in any one point for too long.  What about you? If you applied the “funeral test” what would you want your kids to say about you at your funeral? I think as parents this question and the answers that come from it can create a guiding force that propels us forward to becoming an evolved parent.  Today's conversation takes us on a path of exploration into the question of what does it mean to be an evolved parent? Why are our early examples in life so important and how do we overcome some poor parenting we may have received to become the best parent we can be.  That's today on The EVOLVE Podcast!  Today's guest is my good friend Scott Jones!  Scott Jones is is a Relationship Expert, Licensed Clinical Mental Health Therapist, Public Speaker, Organizational Consultant, and Owner and Director of Stillwater Academy.

We Rise podcast features solutions-seekers, change-makers, and those creating a resilient future. We share stories and strategies to inspire action to build collective resilience and community transformation. To create change, people need to feel like they belong and that they are part of a growing movement. They need to know their voice matters and that they have the inspiration, agency and ability to transform their lives and their communities. They are the key to a resilient future.     From the Navajo Nation to the mountains of Appalachia, incredible work is being done by community members and leaders. Change is often sparked by inspiration: seeing what others have done, especially in similar situations and places. People see that when someone looks like them or lives in a place like theirs, and has created real, true and lasting change, change that will allow their granddaughters and grandsons to thrive — they begin to imagine what might be possible for them.  No longer waiting for someone else to come and save them, they realize they are the ones they have been waiting for.  But what creates that spark? What creates that inspiration?  Learning through stories and examples, feeling a sense of agency and belonging, and getting fired up to kick ass creates that spark.  We Rise helps community leaders and members learn to forge a new path toward creating resilience and true transformation. One person at a time, one community at a time, one region at a time, the quilt of transformation can grow piece by piece until resilience becomes the norm instead of the exception. Together, we rise.

Episode 40 on The School of Unlearning podcast features Michelle Cleary who is a licensed psychotherapist. Michelle brings a radical and essential framework to the world called, “The Shift”. Michelle has battled what she calls “disembodied eating” for much of her life and shares how we can all begin to rethink and reframe what society has called “disordered eating”. Her approach in “The Shift” is to teach practices and tools that empower people to come back to their bodies, to inquire and make friends with their habits and build a new relationship to themselves. We cover:  Michelle's path in facing adverse childhood trauma and how she experienced disembodied eating  How we have a culture of “departure” from the present moment and how that impacts our nervous systems and habits.  What disembodied is vs disordered eating  What role the nervous system plays in disembodied eating  How important co-regulation is in health and specifically in breaking patterns that cause harm.  Michelle's radical approach to helping people embrace a new way of thinking and embracing their eating habits. It all begins with a return to the self, the body - a coming home of sorts that allows each person to stand firmly in their power.  References:  “Good for a Girl” by Lauren Freshman Peter Levine and his research in Trauma  For more on Michelle and her "Find the Shift" program, click here: www.findtheshift.com  Elisa is a Conscious Leadership Coach and Organizational Consultant, click here to learn more about her work.  Follow The School of Unlearning on Instagram @thesoulpodcast.

Person: Dr. Alexander Zock Organizational Consultant & Executive Coach Stoiker Gedanken aus dem Podcast: Ein Stoiker-Experiment - stay tuned ... Wir spielen mit der Idee, dass Alexander Zock als Stoiker auf unsere Fragen zum Thema "Politik der Zukunft" antwortet. D.h., was hätten sie wohl gedacht & gesagt? Was hätten sie zu unseren Fragen aus der Stoa entnommen? Wer waren die Stoiker? Anhänger der Stoa werden als Stoiker bezeichnet. Die bekanntesten Stoiker sind Marc Aurel, römischer Kaiser, Seneca, Dichter und Philosoph und Epiktet, ebenfalls Philosoph. Prinzipien der Stoiker: - Lebe in Übereinstimmung mit Deiner Natur und der Allnatur - Tugendhaftigkeit ist das einzige absolute Gute - Akzeptiere, dass das Einzige, über das Du bestimmen kannst, Dein freier Wille ist. Über alles andere kannst Du nicht bestimmen. - Verbinde Dich in Deinem Leben mit Dir selber, den Menschen in Deinem Umfeld, bedenke aber, dass Du Bürger der Kosmospolis bist. - Denke immer daran, dass Du dem Kosmos nicht fremd bist. Methoden der Stoiker: - Führe ein Tagebuch und prüfe Dich jeden Tag - Sei Dir Deiner Endlichkeit bewusst (Memento Mori) - Praktiziere den Blick von oben (alles wird klein, wenn man von weitem schaut) - Über Nachsicht mit anderen Menschen - Erwarte jeden Tag das Erwartbare Hier unsere Podcast-Fragen: - Was ist nach der Auffassung der Stoiker die Aufgabe der Politik? - Wie würden die Stoiker unsere heutige Politik wahrnehmen? - Welche Wünsche hätten die Stoiker für die Politik der Zukunft? - Was wären vermutlich Marc Aurels 2-3 Fokus-Themen, wenn er heute Bundeskanzler wäre?

What are the top power skills that every organizational consultant ought to have? Today, I want to connect more specifically with those building an organizational consulting or coaching practice not just because of the money but because they want to make a difference. I'm sure you have personally lived through those 70-hour workweeks that took you from your hobbies and time with your family. And have experienced the crazy decisions in service of 90-day numbers that impacted your career opportunities. And now that you have broken free of your golden handcuffs and escaped your 9-5, you want to make sure no one else experienced what you did. So, now you want to land work where you can influence change and create organizations that are equally committed to people and profits. The big question is how do you establish your credibility, with the positioning to speak truth to power so they will listen? Here's what many consultants and coaches try to do that won't work: They try to get their foot in the door in any way, thinking once they are there, they can all of a sudden be seen as a strategic advisor like making a lunch and learn, saying yes to whatever comes along and taking subcontractor gigs. They get super aspirational in their marketing, thinking they will attract clients who want to create purpose-driven, people-centered organizations. They get aggressive or shameless self-promot-y But the real solution is to cultivate the personal power skills of an organizational consultant that are highly learnable. One thing I have learned over my almost 30-plus years of consulting – while there are executive unicorns who will share your idealistic visions of a balanced approach to leadership, like Mark Johnson (in episode 42) or former Disney COO Jim MacPhee (in episode 40), the majority won't. You have to meet them at their point of departure and use your power skills that I'll be sharing in this episode to influence them in a better way. Now, there's only so much I can share with you on a podcast about practically using these power skills and how everything else we have been chatting about in these organizational consulting series fits together. For this reason, I'm super excited to tell you about my hot-off-the-presses new free masterclass, "How to Make Money and a Difference as an Organizational Consultant."

Today, I'm sharing the top solutions that every consultant should know. Do you have a goal of growing a high-impact, high-income consulting business? Do you want the control it will give you over your career, to make great use of your experience, and to make a difference? Here's the problem – especially if you're brand new, you probably have a misconception of what a consultant does. And if you don't know what a consultant does, you don't know what to sell. If you don't know what to sell, you avoid marketing like the plague and procrastinate on meeting someone who expresses interest in your services. In this episode, we're going to turn this around. I'll be going over my top five consulting solutions – what they are, why you need to know them, and how to get started. I have shared some of my Disney background with you through this series. The short story is that after my masters in OD, I landed my dream job at Disney as an internal OD consultant. I had a leader who ran our internal department like we were an external consultancy and expected that we invest 20% of our time building up our mastery in the consulting best practices. We did quarterly work sessions. We did weekly practice sessions. We created an intranet site called the OD workbench that contained all of these best practices we could access wherever we were on the property, which served as an inspiration for a program that I created that I called The Consultant's toolbox. This is why marketing didn't scare me when I started my business, even though it was new to me. I was confident in what I'd do with a client once I got one.

Today I'll discuss the positioning traps that hold consultants back from their impact and earning potential. To set the context for what I mean by positioning traps – I need to take you back in time to 1997 when my mentor and professor told me – people don't get what you do and what you can offer as an organizational consultant. His feedback was impactful; I will share what he taught me to do and the powerful results! I learned that if we want to be treated and paid as a strategic partner, we must position ourselves that way. Otherwise, we'll default into one of the positioning traps that will stand in the way of the difference we want to make and the income we want to earn. This insight about taking charge of my positioning is a theme throughout my consulting and entrepreneurial career – including what I do now as a brand messaging and positioning strategist. When I got to Disney, I was able to consult with the executives on the strategic projects I mentioned in the last episode because I positioned myself to do that work. I proactively advocated for the work approach I thought was best for my role. This positioning perspective is behind my approach to landing work, which I call a Partnership Set Up. It is how I grew my business and helped my clients grow small requests into six-figure engagements. And it's key from a marketing standpoint because the truth is the role of a strategic partner and executive advisor isn't on the org chart and shouldn't be, which I'll explain why in this episode. Now, let's get into the positioning pitfalls. Where to dive in: [4:12] Check out the cheat sheet I made for this episode: www.betsyjordyn.com/consulting-approaches [06:01] Hear why it's so easy to fall into the pair of hands trap and how it can make things worse for your clients. [11:16] The impact the pair of hands trap has on your income. [14:54] Why consultants fall into the surrogate leadership trap and its risks. [21:28] Hear how great consultant positioning is somewhere in the middle of the pair of hands and surrogate leadership trap continuum. [29:33] Listen to the recap! Next steps: Download my free cheat sheet to summarize what we discussed today and determine where your consulting approach falls on the pair of hands to surrogate leader continuum and, most importantly – where you want to be www.betsyjordyn.com/consulting-approaches.

This episode is for anyone who is feeling a sense of unrest or dissatisfaction with their life and who wants to find more joy and meaning. Amy helps us break down why we desire what we desire, what actually drives us to pursue our goals and what key questions we can ask along the way to make sure we are living on purpose.  A favorite part about our today was the nuance that Amy's work brings to self help and self development. That our greatest learnings and times of growth come when we contract and rumble with hard things - and how we can use that data to better direct our next steps. Amy helps us understand why “should” is a word that potentially carries a lot of heavy energy, riddled with guilt and tension. This episode is HIGH energy, riddled with insights and really really human.  In this episode, you will learn:  Amy's early influences that inspired her into the realm of consciousness and spirituality  How Amy defines "living on purpose"   The pivotal moments that helped Amy move towards being a spiritual being having a human experience How the constant need to control our conditions leads to "efforting" which can be draining and lead to burnout  How to reframe goals, that milestones can be helpful but the feeling of what we believe we want is always most important Amy encourages us to "think as far as it feels good" and then come back to the moment.  What it means to embrace Amy's mantra of "feel it out, don't figure it out!" Amy recommends us to "map our desired feeling state"  Amy encourages to strengthen our body/mind awareness - even the states of constriction as it provides great data for what we want and don't want.  "Accept it all" The more we can learn into contraction, the more we can sit with it and also use this state to learn and grow.  What Amy feels is one of the worst/most dramatic words is!  Inner critic?

When I left Disney to start my own business, I grew it quickly from $0-$300K within 18 months because I knew how to work with executives and their teams. I learned how to influence them and create results without positional authority. And I'll be sharing these fundamental principles in this episode. In this episode, you'll hear: How your role as a consultant or coach is NOT as a contract worker or extra pair of hands Why your client is not the organization Why your position will never be on the org chart Why orgs don't care about your title of consultant, coach, or trainer One of the main reasons people fail as consultants to the C-Suite Only personally powerful consultants and coaches can speak truth to power.

Beth Banks Cohn, PhD is an accomplished Organizational Consultant, Executive Coach, and Thought Leader with more than 25 years of business success.  Beth is a valuable asset as she helps companies use organizational, and individuals use personal, transformation to reach the next level of growth. What problem do you solve? She will help people solve those bumps in the road either by helping them avoid them or get over them. Show Notes: Change may be harder now due to what we've been through in the last few years. It's easy to say we just need to be more resilient but that's not always easy. Other things going on in our life can make change harder.  First, we need to own our reaction to the change. We should then educate ourselves so that we at least understand the reason for the change. Then explore how it might help you… will it help you with growth, will it give you new opportunities Also, we need to realize that it may change our position. We then have the opportunity to decide if we want to stay or move on to another place. Organizations need to focus on the people side and engage them. They should realize that people are not used to changing they are tired of it. Organizations need to make sure they listen so that they can explain the change and people can understand it and understand how it affects them.  Beth uses a framework to help explore how the change will affect every single person in the organization. This will help determine if the change is really going to work. Companies should focus on how to make life better for their employees. Improvement in human capital leads to an increase in your company's capital. Beth Banks Cohn's Recharge Round What habit do you think has led to success in your life? Her ability to take time off and recharge. It makes her a better entrepreneur and helps her feel more energized. If you had one do-over, what would it be? Early in her career, she was told she was too aggressive, too loud, and too assertive and she tried to fix herself. Now she owns it as who she is.

For so many leaders, the charge has been to sacrifice personal well being for the sake of the overall entity. If you want to see a drastic change within your organization, you might want to start with yourself. Could effective change be accelerated if you simply begin with a focus on the ‘micro you'? We welcome Jim Frawley to the program to speak about the importance of coaching and welcoming a focus on the ‘micro you'. Jim is an Executive Coach, Organizational Consultant and the CEO of Bellwether Hub, helping corporations maximize their efficiency and elevate growth. Jim is also an author, keynote speaker and a fellow podcaster with a program by the same name Bellwether Hub.Among the many interests Jim has, he is also an avid runner and has completed an IronMan. We ask him what running has to do with leadership. We also dive into his book entitled, Adapting in Motion: Finding Your Place in the New Economy. He states that no leader can make a change or adapt to change unless they are truly ready and willing. Jim addresses the question of 'how do you adapt to change, when you don't know what changes are coming'? The only way to respond to the macro change is to focus on the micro individual and how they will respond to those potentially difficult moments. This is the fundamental work - to start on yourself before you are able to best support others.In his practice, Jim uncovers insecurities, unhealthy narratives and belief systems that clients have bought into or have accepted that may not be supporting their ultimate goals. He also encourages the spirit of curiosity and the asking of great questions. He learned that a question is a legitimate request for information, for the purpose of helping leaders come to discovery, to take ownership and to solve challenges.

Conflict is part of every intimate relationship–that's why conflict resolution skills are essential. Abuse, however, has no place in a healthy relationship, whether the couple is dating, engaged, or married. On the show today, I'm sitting down with the amazing Bob and Polly Hamp of Think Differently Counseling to talk about abuse in marriages, the religious views on marriages, and practical strategies to setting boundaries in an abusive relationship. This is an episode you will want to share with your friends! Bob Hamp is the founder of the Think Differently Counseling Consulting and Connecting Center. He has been in private practice and worked in the Church for a combined 25 years of practice. He has published two books built around the idea that changing thought process is the true meaning of Biblical repentance and, therefore, the critical component of real change. Polly Hamp's vision in life is to see people walk in the fullness of who God created them to be. For years Polly has been helping individuals find freedom and hope from hurting and stuck places. She was the founder and director of a ministry that helped people impacted by the sex industry find freedom and a new life. She is a published author, speaker, and teacher. Polly is a Think Differently Coach, Certified NLP Practitioner, and an Organizational Consultant. In this episode, we talk about: What does responsibility have to do with abuse, and how can we incorrectly assign responsibility in marriage? How has the Church often replicated the dynamic they are trying to heal? God doesn't hate divorce; He hates the behavior that leads to it. Practical strategies for setting boundaries in an abusive relationship. Resources we discussed: Bob's video - Understanding the Dynamics of Abuse https://tdacad.com/courses/understanding-the-dynamics-of-abuse/ Think Differently Counseling The Life-Saving Divorce Safe People Beyond Boundaries If you loved this episode as much as I did, help me out by adding some stars to the rating and tell a friend about the show.

The work of Jesus is evident all throughout Polly Hamp's life.If you've listened to the podcast for a while, you know my life was changed by the teaching of Bob Hamp, and it was such an honor to have his wife Polly on the podcast this week to share her story.Polly's earliest memory is from age 3, when she was first sexually abused. In today's episode, she shares about the journey of life she has been on, as well as the incredible ways Jesus has shown up in her story and redeemed aspects of her story.Her vision in life is to see people walk in the fullness of who God created them to be. For years Polly has been helping individuals find freedom and hope from hurting and stuck places. She was the founder and director of a ministry that helped people impacted by the sex industry find freedom and a new life. She also is a published author, speaker, Think Differently Coach, Certified NLP Practitioner, and an Organizational Consultant.The faithfulness of God evident in her story brought me to tears.

I am blessed to be around remarkable people and to attend dynamic events. There are always TAKEAWAYS to learn. That is what I am sharing on this podcast.  Takeaways – Life. Lessons. Learned. explores learning from the wisdom of others. In the summer of 1977, BRUCE BREIER was unemployed, traveling across the country in a camper van without a plan for himself. He knew he was ready for a change and that he did not want to endure another Connecticut winter. Although he didn't have a plan for himself, his trip was very organized, equipped with a criteria chart to determine which city met his version of paradise. Breier decided San Diego was the best place for his new life. At the end of 2020 Bruce will be celebrating 42 years as an "Organizational Consultant" having started BHB Consulting Services in 1978 in San Diego, CA. Bruce also had a 36-year run as a VISTAGE resource speaker, which he only recently retired from after giving more than 1,000 presentations on two topics: The Organized Executive and The Goal Setting Executive. These presentations provide tips, tools, and techniques for increased and improved effectiveness and efficiency. How did Bruce gain popularity as an organizational consultant?! He credits a single successful cold call in 1980, where he sold himself as an Organizational Consultant to a Farmers Insurance agent. That client referred him to one client and then another. Without any marketing, that word-of-mouth ripple has kept Bruce booked and busy for the last four decades. This year, I personally invested in a 6-month engagement with Bruce. The reason I did this is because I was faced with a choice that I didn't like. That choice was would I have to take things off my plate to keep accomplishing everything I wanted as I became more and more active? I sought Bruce out because I wanted to increase my capacity, instead of being forced to take things off my plate. Or as Bruce would call it, I wanted to become more effective and efficient.

Our special guest today is Irena Izotova from Moscow, who will be sharing her thoughts and experience from a Russian perspective. Our conversation meanders through our experiences of the pandemic and we touch on how the 'Discourse of the Master' returns to impose prohibitions on us during the lockdown.  This is something new to many in the west, but Irena points to this being historically familiar to Russians.   Irena relates how her elderly relative trangresses this prohibition as a refusal to submit once again to the prohibitions she experienced in her earlier life.  She also identifies the importance of arranging reflexive spaces both for leaders and for professionals who support them,  to keep their resilience and capacity to think and act maturely. We end the conversation by exploring how to live rather than survive, and how 'not to give up on our desire'.   Irena is an Executive &Team Coach and Organizational Consultant oriented by a psychodynamic approach.  She is President of Association of Psychoanalytic Coaching and Business Consulting, an Analytic-Network Registered Coach, Lecturer at HSE and a Lacanian psychoanalyst.   Enjoy this podcast!

She began her work consulting to organizations in the late 1990s and early 2000s when, after working to improve selection and hiring processes in organizations, she introduced employee assistance programs and critical incident management to the Swedish market. Her more recent experience, which we will hear more about presently, is in conjunction with Saint Luke’s in Stockholm where her interest is in helping leaders and teams function more productively and effectively.

What can your organization learn from nature? What important lessons does nature have to offer to make your organization better, stronger, faster? Find out on today’s show!   Dr. Tamsin Woolley-Barker is an Evolutionary Biologist, Biological Innovation and Organizational Consultant, and an Adjunct Professor at Arizona State University’s Biomimicry Center in the School of Life Sciences. She is also the author of Teeming, which introduces proven strategies nature’s ant and honeybee teams use to create lasting and growing value in an unpredictable world.   Dr. Woolley-Barker was working alongside wild baboons as a primatologist in Ethiopia when she came to the realization that humans are more like ants than we are like apes (actually, we really are both). Our social system has made such a big jump and has turned into a more collaborative superorganism where none of us can truly survive on our own, like ants.   When you take a close look at ants, they all have a different job and they all depend on each other to function. Human societies have the same undertones. You did not make all the clothes you’re wearing, you did not grow all your own food, or make your own phone. We are so fundamentally intertwined and depend on each other to work. That’s a radical shift from our closest relatives.   Dr. Woolley-Barker shares some examples of how companies she’s worked with have successfully increased their employee engagement, innovation, and productivity through the use of biomimetics.   Interface, the world’s largest manufacturer of modular carpets, asked the question, “How would nature make a carpet?” By going through this thought process, they ended up making the best selling carpet product of all time, and it’s non-toxic! They now have a mission to eliminate any negative impact the company has on the environment by 2020. Productivity shot up by double and that’s because the employees now have a mission they can get behind.   People always ask, “How can we make an organization like an ant team?” Well, if you watch ants, a lot of them are really terrible at what they do. They wander around in circles and are often clueless, but it doesn’t matter! The errors of those individuals cancel out due to the structured process the ant team, as a whole, have put in place. Their process is fool-proof and so everyone succeeds.   Interview Links: Drtamsin.com   Resources: Scaling Up for Business Growth Workshops: Take the first step to mastering the Rockefeller Habits by attending one of our workshops.

Vedic Meditation… Rick Little, Organizational Consultant & Meditation Teacher, Co-Founder of The Spring, and former Vice President, Administration & Strategic Projects for Friends of the High Line, joins Julie Chan for a discussion Vedic Meditation, spirituality, and being complete. Recorded at the MouthMedia Network studios powered by Sennheiser.Discovering the practice, Vedic Meditation in the workplace, and spiritual vs. non-spiritual practice Little discusses how he was first introduced to the practice of Vedic Meditation by former boss Robert Hammond, a caution against participating in mediation without proper instruction, and the experience of having a boss speaking with employees about meditation and modalities. Meditation as a spiritual practice and as not being one, how it aligns with what employers want employees to be, and meditation was one way, not presented to staff as a spiritual practice, and why spiritual aspects are not what meditation teachers usually lead with.Origins, scanning for the most attractive things, and a fourth state How Vedic Meditation comes from The Vedas in India (which also produced yoga), which is 5-10,000 years old. How to live one’s life in alignment with nature, mantras, how the mind is scanning for things it finds attractive and moving towards it, following it down as the mantra becomes fainter, leaving the mind in a place where it isn’t thinking conscious thoughts. Transcendental Meditation vs. Vedic Meditation, and meditation as a fourth state if consciousness, or wakeful hypometobolic state, and meditation on the subway.Becoming complete, the right instruction, and The Spring How meditation is not something that can only happen under a specific set of circumstances, learning to meditate with someone close to you, and why meditating gets us in touch with the part of us that makes us see that we are complete. Instruction in meditation should be seen as important just like any other new skill in life, and why it is best learned on an individual basis. And, how Little is collaborating with several other mediation instructors to open a new New York City studio called The Spring.

What are some of the limitations that leaders may face? Do you think they are more internal or external? Why is it that leadership seems to be a big challenge for a lot of organizations, why are they not getting it right? How do you think a business owner or a leader should approach service recovery? What are some important considerations that you would recommend to a business owner they take into account moving into the online space in order to be successful? How do you stay motivated every day? What is the one online resource, website, tool or app that you absolutely cannot live without in your business? What are some of the books that have had the biggest impact on you? What is one thing in your life right now that you are really excited about – something that you are working on to develop yourself or people? If you were sitting across the table from another business owner and they said to you that they feel they have great products and services but they lack the constantly motivated human capital, what’s the one piece of advice would you give them to have a successful business? Where can our listeners find your information online? What is one quote or saying that you live by or that inspires you in times of adversity?   Highlights Joseph Michelli shared that he has been in this business of customer service which has transformed into customer experience enhancement for so long that he has had many great mentors and guides along the way and if anything, he has been excited to see how many people have started to appreciate that it’s not just the products they have that makes a difference in the market place but it’s really the way those products to marketing, he thinks that changes in the global economy have cost us all to realize that you can get a lot of very similar products very easily today but the service dimension is something that very few have mastered and it is a differentiator. Joseph stated that it starts with leadership, entrepreneur, a small business owner, a large company, having a leader who has the vision to realize that people are the most important aspect of business, that all business are personal, that you have to understand the wants, needs and desires of people in order to create, innovate and to deliver in ways to meet their wants, needs and desires. It’s an overarching commitment to utilizing both technology and the human capital within your organization to create memorable or crave able experience that people will talk about on social media. He thinks that there are dimensions of driving culture, a culture of service excellence as well as operational excellence, getting it right and making it right and obsessing about that and most of these brands are on a journey to decrease the amount of effort that customers have involved in getting their needs met, currently there are all these making sure and understanding that this is a long game, that this is about lasting significance not just short term sales or profitability for the next quarter, it’s really about understanding relationships and multi generations of consumers who are going to support your brand. Joseph shared that he thinks they see excellence within silos, they build organizations that have silos and they are not looking at the journey of the customer across the organization, so instead of looking down from the top of an organization and seeing your marketing silo and your sales silo and seeing your after sale silo, your customers look from a horizontal vantage point and they see the brand and they see it when they encounter it inconsideration of a product, they see it when they walk into a store or when they attempt to purchase something from the online store front, they see it when they make a return, they are seeing the same brand in a horizontal walk. Unfortunately, a lot of organizations reward people for success in each of the verticals silos as they look down on it from the top, so a lot of this gets to helping organizations create opportunities of handing the customer from one point of the journey to the next part of the journey seamlessly instead of just celebrating success within a silo. Yanique shared that she found that the companies that really understand their journey also recognize that things are not going to go smooth all the time so service recovery is so important. Joseph stated that it’s one of the greatest differentiators, everybody do a good job until they get your money, as soon as they get your money, they treat you differently, some take you for granted and never speak to you again or when it’s time for renewal, try to get you constantly to buy something from them. Those who after the sale respond very ably to the consumer, the better, the first formal part of this is understanding that service recovery is an investment in future marketing so rather than seeing it as a lost leader, it is a part of your advertising strategy and saves you money from having to advertise and recover customers who are soiling or contaminating the market place with their negative reactions to your poor recovery. It’s a mind shift on what recovery is, it’s a fundamental opportunity to decrease future marketing costs and actually leverage that which is so valuable the customer you’ve already acquired in having them be a repeat purchaser, it is so much easier to get them to buy a second time than to get somebody to buy the first time and the cost associated with retaining a customer is so much less even if you have to invest money in a recovery moment than it would be to try to require a replacement customer. Joseph stated that it is simple as Starbucks has a promise that, “If you don’t like your drink, we will replace it for you no questions asked.” Joseph gave an example, he stated that there was a prankster, a person who pranks corporate America, so he bought a Starbucks drink, he brought it home, it was a milk based drink, he put it in his garage, he left it there for a week and a half, he brought it back extremely rancid inside of a plastic bag and he brought it into a Starbucks and handed it to the Barista and saying, “Look, this drink does not meet my satisfaction.” They have been trained so well by this brand simply said, “Let me take this take this to our back dumpster and in the mean time, what drink might I prepare for you that you might like today?” It was that simple, many people would say, “come on, obviously this is not a freshly made drink that we are in any obligation to replace” In truth, this prankster went on to write a blog about the fact that he had hoped that they would fail their recovery promise and they did not do so and he was the one who got pranked and that advertising and that promotion and the fact that he’s telling the story today has far more value to the brand than the $4.00 they would have saved had they argued with the customer in suggesting that he was not entitled to the recovery. Yanique stated that she lives in Jamaica and most of the stores already have a sign on the door that says, “No exchanges, no refunds” so you as a customer, once you enter or start to browse that store, you know, “If I purchase this, clearly it’s a final purchase, if I have an issue with it, I can’t take it back.” It’s truly amazing to know that the promise is that they are going to replace it for you no questions asked, that takes real guts, real courage. Joseph stated that there will be those who abuse it and this would have been a case of abuse, clearly it went well beyond the perimeters but most people will not. There is a speaker in the USA who at the beginning of every presentation hands out a bowl of quarters and he says, “Please take all the quarters” and no one has taken all the quarters in any audience that he has ever put that out to and the message largely is, most people will self regulate, most people are business owners, most people have a sense of fairness, there will be those who abuse it but assuming the entire population is out to get you creates an animosity between yourself and the customer that’s hard to recover from and as a world traveler, he has been to countries in the Caribbean that are open and warm and he has been to ones that are locked down and he knows which ones he doesn’t want to go back to. Joseph stated that online is a very self service oriented deliverable, it’s a lot about speed, and it’s a lot about convenience so you clearly should maximize those dimensions. The more speedy and more automated this becomes, the more you need people around in case something goes wrong because he become lulled into the sense that everything is perfect and so if you’re going to have online, you also need to have some level of Call Centre or human response that can deal with any break downs that happens in the automated space and so you have to be very mindful that you’re going to move in and out of brick and mortar, in and out of call centre, in and out of online app deliverable and so it really is a multi channel mindset that you have to start thinking about and the customer can start in one spot, jump to the next and needs to be able to jump back to the next. If you go purely online and it’s difficult to get people to solve a problem or answer a question that you can’t get answered on a frequently answered questions page online then you end up with a lesser experience and you may end up churning customers so doing online development means you also have some talented human capital that bolts into this multi channel journey. Speed and Convenience for todays customer - Joseph stated that we have to maximize the speed at every turn and we do have to manage customer expectations because there are certain expectations that have gotten ahead of customers and in order to have everything that fast you also give up some tradeoffs on artisanship and quality so it is an educational on tradeoffs that with speed comes some compromises and we are willing to make them in these regards because we know what’s best and in delivery of this particular product you know you need speed, we know you need speed, we are working to maximize that but you also need quality and if you compromise and buy something very hastily crafted in order to meet the speed, it probably won’t last long, so it’s baiting what is value and speed is a part of the value equation but there are other dimensions that you have to education. Sometimes we can do things while they are waiting for those 5 days for a product, we can educate them, and we can stay in relationship with them. The art of Disney if you go to Walt Disney World, you are in massive lines, it is not speedy at all to go through the experience but they often distract you, entertain you, transform you with other things happening while you’re in line and he thinks that’s the art sometimes, how else can they add value, “The product will be there in 5 days but in the mean time I want to give you 5 days of information about how maximize the use of your product as soon as it arrives so there isn’t such a learning curve.” So maybe there is a not speed to delivery but there’s a speed to use because he has done something in that delivery time that adds value. Beta Brand – company that did not have a product but they provided their prospects with entertaining stories. Joseph stated that that particular journey with the owner was a co authored book with Johnny Yokoyama who created Pike Place Fish Market, he had the good fortune of working with him and he’s inspirational to him. He stated that Yanique and himself shared many of the same journeys, they go in and help leaders create better experiences to drive loyalty and engagement of their people and of their customers and that’s just a life giving journey that he’s on, to deal with the Johnny Yokoyama’s, to deal with the CEO’s of these corporations to help them lead these initiatives, to watch small business owners change the way they treat their people and the way their people treat the customers, it is so life giving that it’s easy to do what he does in life and because of that, it’s easy for him to stay motivated. Joseph shared that he is on the road all the time so most of the airline apps and almost all the hotel apps have incredible value to him. This morning he walked to his local Starbucks and he used his mobile order app, he was able to have enough time to sit down and enjoy his coffee because the coffee was waiting for him. Anything that makes his life easier is something he tends to continues to give real estate to his phone, otherwise he downloads a lot of apps and then they are gone 72 hours because he doesn’t use them, they look good but they don’t’ give his life ease or pleasure. Joseph shared that the book that has had the biggest impact is Man’s Search for Meaning By Viktor E. Frankl, it is the message of a Psychiatrist who survived the concentration camps in World War II, the beauty for him is that he inspires him to realize how great he can be and his classic section is where he’s talking about people who are near starvation, who gave up the food they have, a small portion of that to someone else who are worst and Frankl says, “there are not many people who did that but the fact that we can is inspiring to all of us” and that’s how he looks at the world, we can all serve better, we can all do more to be in service to one another and that’s the kind of books he tends to like to read. Joseph stated that right now they trying to figure out to create product, he thinks he is at a point in his career where he has written enough books, he has done enough consulting and he has been on the road a lot, so he is trying to figure out how to monetize and create a platform of training courses and things that keep him from having to go on planes so in 10 or 15 years he can spend more time with in the islands enjoying life while still creating value as best he can.   Joseph stated that it starts with you, we can identify the generation Y and Z and the millennials, reality says, “If you’re not a hundred percent in every single day, why should anyone else in your organization be, you are the owner, you are the leader, you set the standard, what shows up in your business is probably in part a reflection of who you are.” It is harder today to find motivated people so it takes more discipline to select, you should be looking for them everywhere you find them, you should be offering them an opportunity to consider employment with you, stealing the best from the rest but ultimately it is how do you show up every day because that will show up in the life of the customer.   Joseph shared listeners can find him at – www.josephmichelli.com Joseph Michelli Twitter Joseph Michelli Facebook Joseph Michelli LinkedIn   Joseph stated that Peter Drucker once said, “We are not in business to create a profit, we are in business to create a customer, it is through customers that profits come.” So for him, Joseph is less worried about whether or no they are going to be profitable, he’s more worried about customers and if he takes care customers, the profits will follow.   Links Driven to Delight: Delivering World-Class Customer Experience the Mercedes-Benz Way by Joseph A.
