Podcasts about Ownership

Football club ownership has come under intense scrutiny this season. From Manchester United's staff cuts to Tottenham flirting with relegation, does failure always start at the top and trickle down? Elsewhere, Leicester City have been relegated to League One just ten years after their remarkable Premier League triumph. The guys revisit the role of ownership and ask how much of the club's decline can be traced back to the tragic death of Khun Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha. Gary, Alan and Micah also turn their attention to the new Ronaldinho Netflix series, debating his legacy and whether he truly matched up to fellow Brazilian great Ronaldo Nazário.

The future of the Vancouver Whitecaps is suddenly in question, and fans are not taking it quietly. With stadium complications threatening the club's long-term place in the city, the Cooligans break down what's really happening behind the scenes and whether Vancouver can realistically keep its team. This isn't just about one club—it's about what MLS values most when push comes to shove: markets, money, or supporters. Then, Clint Dempsey joins the show for a wide-ranging conversation about the upcoming World Cup and the growing concern that real fans are being priced out of the biggest tournament in the world. He opens up about his Gatorade campaign, the mentality that made him one of the toughest players in U.S. soccer history, and the personal moment when he realized it was time to walk away from the game. Finally, the guys react to Chelsea FC parting ways with Liam Rosenior and why the constant churn of managers says more about ownership than anything happening on the pitch. Plus, they hit the biggest stories around the global game—from Manchester City leading the Premier League race to Lamine Yamal's injury and Pellegrino Matarazzo's surprising Copa del Rey success.   Timestamps: (7:30) – Can fans keep the Whitecaps in Vancouver?

Most men sense something is off long before they can name it. They've played by the rules, been agreeable, helpful, conflict-avoidant, and still find themselves feeling invisible, disrespected, or hollow. Today's guest calls it exactly what it is: the nice-guy trap. And he didn't just study it from the outside; he lived it, lost a marriage over it, battled addiction through it, and came out the other side with a clear-eyed framework for what it actually means to step into your manhood. My guest is Tony Bova and, today, we talk about the internal work that nobody talks about. It's about rewriting the stories you tell yourself, honoring your word in the small moments, having the hard conversations you've been avoiding, and building something far more durable than the honeymoon phase. If you're done outsourcing your standards and ready to become the loudest voice in your own life, this one's for you.

“Send Coach John a message”I came across something that I must have needed to see and be reminded of and it came from Bob Starkey (@CoachBobStarkey) reminds us: “Don't settle.”  This quote he shares is from Nelson Mandela and it's a powerful one:  “There is no passion to be found in settling for a life that is less than the one you are capable of living.” I think it's a reminder for all of us to realize the importance of having passion in our lives for the things that we find are important to us. Things that we have deep down inside of ourselves that we are fired up over. Of course this is something that becomes a bit more on the front burner of our stoves as we get older. If we can grasp our own connection to this mindset sooner than later AND keep it in mind frequently, I think that great things can happen for ourselves and those that we love. Remember, as we get better - so do the people around us. I know I have settled plenty of times. In other words, I have not worked hard many times in my life on my purpose, my calling. Now that I have a little bit more time to reflect on this, I can see that I still can do something about not settling. The key here is - the same goes for you!  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.  ** I would appreciate anyone to try clicking on the top of the show notes where it says "Send us a text" to leave a few thoughts / comments / questions.  It's a new feature that I'd like to see how it works. **

“Send Coach John a message”I found a post that got me thinking about how much I need to find this. I'm talking about finding a “quiet mind.” It comes from Curious Minds (@CuriousMindsHub) where this post was shared:  “A quiet mind … A quiet mind learns better.  A quiet mind observes better.  A quiet mind acts better.”  Yep… I need a quiet mind more often.  I need MY mind to be quiet more often. I think back to my past, when I was a little kid at times. I knew my mind was quieter at that time because of the things going around me that my mind was trying to deal with and think about. Today - I feel that it's multiplied many times more than that. It gets me thinking (and planning) about finding ways to slow my mind down - especially at night while I'm trying to sleep. I want to keep looking for ways to simplify my life and mind for that matter. Be more in the moment when I can remember to do that. I want to make my habits and choices fit into this a bit more.

In this episode of The Inquisitor Podcast, Marcus Cauchi and Ryan Burman discuss procurement in B2B sales, buyer psychology, total cost of ownership, and how sales teams can build trust with procurement instead of fighting it. The discussion reframes procurement as a risk management function rather than a price cutting function. Ryan explains that successful sales teams focus less on persuasion and more on aligning with how procurement evaluates suppliers, especially around risk, reliability, and total cost of ownership. This episode is relevant for sales leaders, account executives, and commercial teams working in complex B2B sales environments where procurement plays a key role in decision making. Key Topics Covered * Procurement in B2B sales and how it influences buying decisions * Buyer psychology and how procurement evaluates supplier risk * Total cost of ownership (TCO) vs ROI in procurement decisions * Sales and procurement alignment in enterprise and mid-market deals * How to build trust with procurement teams in B2B selling * Why co-creation improves sales outcomes compared to traditional pitching * Common sales mistakes when dealing with procurement teams * How procurement manages risk, continuity, and supplier reliability Key Takeaways Procurement is focused on risk management Procurement teams prioritise reducing operational and commercial risk, not just lowering costs. Buyer decision making is driven by risk Suppliers are evaluated on whether they reduce uncertainty or introduce it. Total cost of ownership matters more than ROI Procurement considers long-term costs including quality, supply chain stability, and maintenance. Co-creation improves sales success Building solutions with procurement leads to stronger alignment and higher win rates. Trust is the deciding factor Buyers prioritise predictability and reduced internal risk over lowest price. Key Insight for Sales Teams In B2B sales, every deal must satisfy three buyer needs: * Functional, does the solution work * Social, how it impacts internal stakeholders * Emotional, whether it reduces personal and career risk   Ryan Burman is the founder of Pitch to Procure and creator of the First to Pitch methodology. He helps sales and procurement teams improve alignment, negotiation outcomes, and supplier relationships in complex B2B sales environments. Key Quote “The first transaction is not the win. The first transaction is the test of trust. Pass that test and even if you don't get a deal, you can get a customer for life.” Marcus Cauchi   Ryan Berman | LinkedIn Marcus Cauchi | LinkedIn

Keep winning! Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Cheryl Taylor Anderson. Podcast: Money Making Conversations MasterclassHost: Rushion McDonaldGuest: Cheryl Taylor Anderson, Real Estate Broker (Metro Atlanta) 1. Purpose of the Interview The core purpose of this interview is to educate, empower, and motivate listeners—particularly first‑time homebuyers, renters, veterans, and people of color—to pursue homeownership as a wealth‑building strategy. Specifically, the conversation aims to: Demystify the homebuying process Combat fear and misinformation around mortgages Highlight low‑ and zero‑down payment opportunities Explain how homeowners can build equity faster Emphasize real estate as a key tool for generational wealth Encourage disciplined financial decisions rooted in ownership rather than renting Rushion positions the discussion as a knowledge‑sharing opportunity to help listeners move from renting to owning, especially in communities historically excluded from homeownership. 2. Interview Overview Cheryl Taylor Anderson brings more than 20 years of real estate experience and over $400 million in sales in Metro Atlanta. She works with: First‑time homebuyers VA and military families Move‑up buyers Luxury clients and institutional sellers Throughout the interview, Cheryl provides practical, real‑world examples—including her own story as a former single mother and homeowner—to ease fear, explain financing, and correct misconceptions about buying a home. 3. Key Takeaways A. Many Renters Can Already Afford to Own One of the central points is that many renters are paying as much—or more—than mortgage payments without building equity. Rent payments offer no tax benefits Mortgage payments build ownership and wealth Homeowners can deduct mortgage interest (unlike rent) Key idea: Many people qualify for ownership but are held back by misinformation and fear. B. First‑Time Homebuyers Have More Options Than They Realize Cheryl explains that many buyers are unaware of: Zero‑down payment programs Builder incentives covering closing costs Opportunities to move into homes with minimal out‑of‑pocket costs In some cases, buyers are only required to bring earnest money, making homeownership far more accessible than expected. C. VA and Veteran Benefits Are Underused Cheryl strongly emphasizes VA loans as one of the most powerful tools for homeownership: 100% financing (zero down payment) Ability to ask sellers for up to 6% in closing cost contributions Certain veterans may be exempt from property taxes Lower monthly payments overall Veterans are encouraged to use their benefits, even years after leaving military service. D. A 30‑Year Mortgage Does Not Mean 30 Years of Debt Cheryl reframes mortgage timelines by teaching strategic repayment: Paying bi‑weekly instead of monthly Adding small extra payments ($50–$100/month) Reducing both interest and principal faster She uses her personal example of being close to paying off her home early despite starting with a traditional 30‑year loan. E. Homeownership Builds Stability and Community The interview contrasts renting versus owning: Ownership benefits include: Equity growth Customization and upgrades Neighborhood relationships Security and long‑term stability A tangible asset to pass to children Even HOA‑managed communities—while sometimes frustrating—protect property values and neighborhood standards. F. Home Warranties Reduce Fear of Maintenance To address anxiety about repairs, Cheryl recommends home warranties: Cover major systems (HVAC, water heaters, appliances) Low service fees when repairs are needed Can be negotiated into purchase contracts Provide peace of mind similar to apartment maintenance This is especially helpful for first‑time buyers. G. Social Media Builds Trust and Visibility Cheryl explains how social media strengthens her business: Buyers see real closings, celebrations, and testimonials Creates emotional connection and trust Inspires others to picture themselves as homeowners Visibility drives confidence and referrals. H. Education and Adaptability Drive Longevity Cheryl credits her success through: The 2008 housing crisis COVID‑19 Market shifts to constant learning, flexibility, and strategy pivots (e.g., foreclosures, BPOs, builder incentives). 4. Notable Quotes On Renting vs. Owning “Never be willing to pay somebody more than you’re willing to pay yourself.” On First‑Time Buyer Fear “Don’t let the longevity scare you. In an apartment, you’re building nothing.” On VA Benefits “Veterans can come to the table with zero down—and sometimes no property taxes.” On Mortgage Strategy “Pay every two weeks and it knocks down your interest and principal faster.” On Equity “Rent doesn’t give you anything to leave your children. Homeownership does.” On Homeownership Mindset “People are willing to pay their landlord more than they’ll pay themselves.” 5. Overall Takeaway This interview reinforces homeownership as one of the most powerful, attainable tools for building long‑term wealth—when buyers are properly educated, supported, and encouraged to move past fear and misinformation. Cheryl Taylor Anderson demonstrates that: Buying a home is often more accessible than people believe Strategic mortgage management can drastically shorten debt timelines Ownership builds equity, stability, and generational opportunity #SHMS #BEST #STRAWSupport the show: https://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Dr. Donnie bought his dental practice just 6 months ago, and he's already facing the challenges every new owner hits. In this raw and honest "MyStory" episode, Craig and Peter sit down with Dr. Donnie to unpack the real problems he's navigating as a first-time practice owner: arbitrary revenue goals with no math to back them up, two part-time associates who aren't pulling their weight, a rocky practice management software switch mid-transition, a team that says everything's fine but clearly isn't, and a leadership style that's more people-pleasing than people-leading.  The guys break it all down, from reverse-engineering his $3M dream with actual operatory data, to why his bonus system could quietly be killing his margins, to the hard truth about what it means to lead vs. manage a team you inherited.

Specifically, the conversation aims to: Demystify the homebuying process Combat fear and misinformation around mortgages Highlight low‑ and zero‑down payment opportunities Explain how homeowners can build equity faster Emphasize real estate as a key tool for generational wealth Encourage disciplined financial decisions rooted in ownership rather than renting Rushion positions the discussion as a knowledge‑sharing opportunity to help listeners move from renting to owning, especially in communities historically excluded from homeownership. 2. Interview Overview Cheryl Taylor Anderson brings more than 20 years of real estate experience and over $400 million in sales in Metro Atlanta. She works with: First‑time homebuyers VA and military families Move‑up buyers Luxury clients and institutional sellers Throughout the interview, Cheryl provides practical, real‑world examples—including her own story as a former single mother and homeowner—to ease fear, explain financing, and correct misconceptions about buying a home. 3. Key Takeaways A. Many Renters Can Already Afford to Own One of the central points is that many renters are paying as much—or more—than mortgage payments without building equity. Rent payments offer no tax benefits Mortgage payments build ownership and wealth Homeowners can deduct mortgage interest (unlike rent) Key idea: Many people qualify for ownership but are held back by misinformation and fear. B. First‑Time Homebuyers Have More Options Than They Realize Cheryl explains that many buyers are unaware of: Zero‑down payment programs Builder incentives covering closing costs Opportunities to move into homes with minimal out‑of‑pocket costs In some cases, buyers are only required to bring earnest money, making homeownership far more accessible than expected. C. VA and Veteran Benefits Are Underused Cheryl strongly emphasizes VA loans as one of the most powerful tools for homeownership: 100% financing (zero down payment) Ability to ask sellers for up to 6% in closing cost contributions Certain veterans may be exempt from property taxes Lower monthly payments overall Veterans are encouraged to use their benefits, even years after leaving military service. D. A 30‑Year Mortgage Does Not Mean 30 Years of Debt Cheryl reframes mortgage timelines by teaching strategic repayment: Paying bi‑weekly instead of monthly Adding small extra payments ($50–$100/month) Reducing both interest and principal faster She uses her personal example of being close to paying off her home early despite starting with a traditional 30‑year loan. E. Homeownership Builds Stability and Community The interview contrasts renting versus owning: Ownership benefits include: Equity growth Customization and upgrades Neighborhood relationships Security and long‑term stability A tangible asset to pass to children Even HOA‑managed communities—while sometimes frustrating—protect property values and neighborhood standards. F. Home Warranties Reduce Fear of Maintenance To address anxiety about repairs, Cheryl recommends home warranties: Cover major systems (HVAC, water heaters, appliances) Low service fees when repairs are needed Can be negotiated into purchase contracts Provide peace of mind similar to apartment maintenance This is especially helpful for first‑time buyers. G. Social Media Builds Trust and Visibility Cheryl explains how social media strengthens her business: Buyers see real closings, celebrations, and testimonials Creates emotional connection and trust Inspires others to picture themselves as homeowners Visibility drives confidence and referrals. H. Education and Adaptability Drive Longevity Cheryl credits her success through: The 2008 housing crisis COVID‑19 Market shifts to constant learning, flexibility, and strategy pivots (e.g., foreclosures, BPOs, builder incentives). 4. Notable Quotes On Renting vs. Owning “Never be willing to pay somebody more than you’re willing to pay yourself.” On First‑Time Buyer Fear “Don’t let the longevity scare you. In an apartment, you’re building nothing.” On VA Benefits “Veterans can come to the table with zero down—and sometimes no property taxes.” On Mortgage Strategy “Pay every two weeks and it knocks down your interest and principal faster.” On Equity “Rent doesn’t give you anything to leave your children. Homeownership does.” On Homeownership Mindset “People are willing to pay their landlord more than they’ll pay themselves.” 5. Overall Takeaway This interview reinforces homeownership as one of the most powerful, attainable tools for building long‑term wealth—when buyers are properly educated, supported, and encouraged to move past fear and misinformation. Cheryl Taylor Anderson demonstrates that: Buying a home is often more accessible than people believe Strategic mortgage management can drastically shorten debt timelines Ownership builds equity, stability, and generational opportunity #SHMS #BEST #STRAWSteve Harvey Morning Show Online: http://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Episode #1123 Most guys don't get stuck because they failed. They get stuck because of what they make that failure mean. In this episode, we dig into how shame actually works, why it keeps you spinning in the same patterns, and what it takes to break out of it. Because there's a big difference between owning something you did and turning it into your identity. We talk about why keeping things to yourself makes the weight heavier, not lighter, and how simply bringing things into the open starts to shift everything. You'll hear why a lot of men avoid ownership without realizing it, and how that avoidance quietly shows up in their relationships, their communication, and their connection at home. This is also about understanding the difference between guilt and shame. Guilt can actually move you forward. Shame keeps you stuck. And if you don't know the difference, you'll keep repeating the same cycle without realizing why. We also go into what real ownership looks like. Not just saying the words, but actually sitting in the discomfort, being present with the impact you've had, and doing the part most guys try to skip. That's where trust starts to rebuild. That's where connection comes back. If you've been carrying something, avoiding a conversation, or feeling stuck in the same patterns, this will help you see a different way through it. If you want a clear next step on how to start fixing what's not working in your marriage, go get the free training here: https://fixmarriage.thepowerfulman.com/scales It'll walk you through what to focus on so you can rebuild connection and start moving things in the right direction again.

“Send Coach John a message”Looking at a few things this morning and this one got my attention. The reason of course, is that I needed to be reminded of it. It's from Words of Wise | Mindset Coach (@Wordofwise_) and it's a quote from Carl Jung who said “I am not what happened to me, I am what I choose to become.” It reminds me to not focus on the challenging things that I have gone through or currently am going through. Instead, I need to focus on the things that I've been able to do that are good and helpful to others; along with to keep on doing to keep serving and making a difference for others. It's challenging to remember this when tough times are all around us, but there are plenty of examples of others going through it too. We must keep learning lessons every day, along with taking a few moments here and there to have the perspective in our lives to keep getting better. I want to be in the moment, right now to do something I know is good for me to do. Choices that help me to become who I choose to be and not stay weighed down by what I've been through before. Deep stuff here that has helped me tremendously and I hope it helps you too.  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.  ** I would appreciate anyone to try clicking on the top of the show notes where it says "Send us a text" to leave a few thoughts / comments / questions.  It's a new feature that I'd like to see how it works. **

In this practical and eye-opening conversation, Bart sits down with Dr. Grant Elliott, founder of RehabFix and expert in physical therapy and performance training, to challenge the way most people think about pain, injury, and recovery. Dr. Elliott explains why traditional approaches often focus on short-term relief instead of long-term solutions, and how that keeps people stuck in cycles of pain. Drawing from his experience working with clients and building RehabFix, he shares a more effective approach based on identifying root causes, building strength, and restoring proper movement. This episode reframes rehab as more than recovery. It is about creating a stronger and more resilient body for the long term.Major Takeaways / LearningsPain is a signal, not the problem. Treating symptoms without addressing the root cause leads to recurring issues.Quick fixes create long-term problems. Temporary relief often delays real recovery.Movement quality matters more than intensity. How you move determines how your body performs and heals.Strength is protection. Building strength reduces the likelihood of future injuries.Rehab is proactive, not reactive. The best approach prevents problems before they start.Consistency beats intensity. Sustainable progress comes from small, repeated efforts over time.Education empowers recovery. Understanding your body leads to better decisions and outcomes.Ownership is key. Long-term results require active participation, not passive treatment. Memorable Quotes“Fix the root, not the symptom.”“Pain is information.”“Quick fixes keep you stuck.”“Strength is the best insurance policy.”“Your body adapts to what you consistently do.”“Recovery requires ownership.” Why It Matters / How to Use ItThis episode is a must-listen for anyone dealing with pain, injury, or performance limitations. Dr. Grant Elliott's approach challenges the common reliance on temporary relief and instead focuses on building long-term resilience. Whether you're an athlete, entrepreneur, or someone trying to stay healthy and active, the lesson is clear: sustainable results come from addressing root causes, staying consistent, and taking ownership of your body. When you shift from reactive fixes to proactive strength and movement, you don't just recover—you improve.

In recognition of April as Financial Literacy Month, this episode explores an important question: what happens when employees are given ownership but don't fully understand its value? Jason and Makenzie dive into the critical role financial literacy plays in helping employee-owners make the most of their ownership stake. From understanding equity to building confidence in financial decision-making, this conversation highlights how empowering employees with knowledge can unlock the full potential of employee ownership.

In this conversation, Camille Hamilton reflects on leaving corporate life, building something of her own, and how freedom often comes with stress, responsibility, and rewards no paycheck can replicate.

Machine gun rounds took his right leg in Afghanistan. Nick Lavery decided that wasn't the end. He's an active-duty Green Beret with 5th Special Forces Group, and he went back to the teams as an above-the-knee amputee after a 14-week assessment designed to answer one question: asset or liability. In this conversation with Joe De Sena, Nick breaks down the hard part people miss. The low points. The doubts. The shift from proving himself to owning responsibility for the men beside him and their families. He explains why standards beat feelings, why emotion and logic can't drive the same decision, and why physical training is the most honest way to build mental toughness. You'll leave with practical rules for discipline, resilience, and performance under pressure, built from real stakes.   Things You Will Learn: How to transition from 'prove it' to ownership so your discipline holds when motivation collapses. How to separate emotion from decisions by letting a team or standard run the logic when you can't. How to use physical training as a daily discipline tool to build mental toughness that you can measure.   Tools & Frameworks Covered: Asset vs. Liability Standard: clarifies performance and responsibility under high stakes. Analysis vs. Dwelling Rule: turns setbacks into usable data instead of emotional loops. Physical Training as an Operational System: builds discipline, endurance, and mental toughness with objective metrics.   If this episode moved you, don't just listen. Do something about it. Sign up.

“Send Coach John a message”I came across a post the other day that stuck with me. This came from MLFootball (@MLFootball) and it was a thought that came from Los Angeles Rams head football coach Sean McVay.  He said in order to grow as a person you need to struggle in life. “Show me anybody that's great in anything they do, I'll show you somebody that's persevered, demonstrated that mental toughness to overcome some obstacles and adversity”  It's something to just sit back and take to heart. Nobody that has done anything worthwhile - big or small, has been without troubles, setbacks, doubts, obstacles, and of course failures. This got me thinking that I simply need to keep trying, every single day.  There are billions of examples of this throughout history. Now of course I don't know about all of them. I do know about a few and that also tells me that those that I don't know about, aren't any less valuable.  They did happen for sure. The things I'm going through, I can get through if I “simply” make the decision to keep going. You can do the same.  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.  ** I would appreciate anyone to try clicking on the top of the show notes where it says "Send us a text" to leave a few thoughts / comments / questions.  It's a new feature that I'd like to see how it works. **

Chelsea produced another miserable home performance, beaten 3-0 by Manchester City at Stamford Bridge in a display that was as limp and lifeless as anything served up this season. No fight, no shape, no identity — just another afternoon at Stamford Bridge that left supporters asking the same unanswerable question: how is this acceptable to anyone running this football club?Simon and Manny are back and in no mood for softening the blow. The performance gets the forensic breakdown it deserves, but this episode goes far beyond tactics and teamsheets. This is a conversation about an ownership that has failed Chelsea Football Club comprehensively, both on the pitch and in the boardroom. The historic financial losses now being reported are not just embarrassing — they are a damning indictment of a project that has spent more than any club in football history and produced less than almost any of them.The hosts ask the questions that the boardroom clearly is not asking itself. Who at the top of this club is being held accountable? What serious footballer looks at Chelsea's trajectory right now and thinks this is a project worth joining? The recruitment crisis is not coming — it is already here, and the financial results prove that the chaos runs far deeper than a bad run of form or an underperforming manager.With the season crumbling around them, Saturday brings Manchester United to Stamford Bridge — a fixture that once meant something, between two clubs that once stood at the summit of English football. Right now it feels like a contest between two sides desperately searching for relevance. Can Chelsea find a response when they need it most?

Ownership willing to spend?

Scott Webb is a longtime leader at Kolter Hospitality who turned a condo crisis into a thriving hotel portfolio spanning major brands. With over three decades of experience, he blends real estate discipline with hands-on hotel operations to drive smart growth. Susan and Scott talk about leadership lessons and share insights on people, performance, and property strategy. What You'll Learn • Why investing in team training beats cutting visible guest perks  • When growth forces you to level up your leadership bench  • How to spot risky revenue that won't repeat  • What sellers "clean up" before a deal, and how to catch it  • Why labor assumptions can quietly wreck your underwriting  • How to evaluate real revenue streams beyond surface metrics  • Why owner-operators outperform third-party managers  • How vertical integration saves money and speeds decisions  • How poor facilities hurt employees as much as guests  • Why frontline staff need the strongest support systems  • What owners miss when they outsource management  • How to "go to school" on your own hotel operations  • How global trends, inflation, and AI are reshaping hospitality  • How karma plays out in high-stakes real estate deals *** Our Top Three Takeaways 1. Hotels are not real estate plays Hotels require a fundamentally different approach than traditional real estate because performance depends on operations rather than just the asset. Success comes from understanding revenue sources at a granular level and identifying what is repeatable vs. one-time noise. Without that due diligence, it's easy to misprice deals and inherit hidden surprises. 2. Ownership mindset drives better performance than third-party management Owners manage assets better than third-party operators because they are fully accountable for the outcome. That alignment allows for faster decision-making, better cost control, and a more complete view of profitability. At scale, bringing management in-house can also unlock significant financial upside. 3. Talent investment is the real competitive advantage The one expense Scott would never cut is investment in people, because team members ultimately define the guest experience. Training, internal mobility, and trust create stronger performance and long-term loyalty, while neglecting them creates visible cracks for both employees and guests. The operators who win are the ones who consistently reinvest in both their teams and their assets.   Scott Webb on LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/scott-webb-1aa84b163/ Kolter Hospitality https://www.kolterhospitality.com/

“Send Coach John a message”I started my day like I always do, looking for inspiration and lessons to learn from. I found this one from Damon West (@damonwest7), the co-author of the wonderful & powerful book, “The Coffee Bean.” (it's one you should make sure to check out).  Most people let the day decide how they show up. The difference is choosing it before anything else does. That's where consistency and real leadership start.”  This was a reminder for me to try and make the right choice, at the start of my day - each and every day! The post shared was this: “Start your day with one question:  how am I going to show up today?  For myself and for others. Because your attitude, your effort, and your presence will shape every room you walk into.”  A question I need to ask myself, and looking back is a bit easier since things have already happened - Is on my “good” days, why were they good?  Also on my “bad” days, why were they bad?  I am betting that the start to each of those days had something to do with it. I am thinking that if each of us made a bit more of a conscious effort to start our days out thinking about how do we want to show up today?  This goes for the person looking back at ourselves in the mirror, to all the different people that we come into contact with every day - especially our loved ones.  Awesome reminder by an awesome difference maker.

What does it take to grow a construction company from $27M to over $1.5 billion — without losing your culture along the way? In this episode, Scott Winstead sits down with Tim Paulson, Co-CEO of ESS Companies, to unpack the philosophy, decisions, and hard lessons behind one of the industry's most remarkable growth stories.Tim shares how becoming an ESOP in 1999 unleashed an ownership mentality across the organization, his "3D diversification" framework for sustainable growth, and why ESS invests 70% of its marketing budget internally — on its own people. He also gets candid about the growing pains of tripling in size through three simultaneous acquisitions in 2019, and what he'd tell his 30-year-old self about staying through the hard seasons.If you're thinking about culture at scale, leadership development, or what it really means to build a company where people have a genuine stake in the outcome, this conversation is for you.

How can you keep score without being defined by the scoreboard? In this episode, Jeff and Cary discuss:  Lessons learned during the first year with no profit in a family company. Stewardship versus entitlement - understanding the paradigm that God owns it all. Doing what God calls you to do as the next right thing. Riding the elevator of business, both up and down.    Key Takeaways:  God is always teaching us lessons, even if it takes until we meet Him again to understand fully. Marriage is a partnership, and in a good partnership, when things go well, they're twice as good because you get to share them. And when things go bad, they're half as bad because you've got somebody else to carry the weight. When we start to see God's blessings as entitlements, it is going to suck the joy out of life. Find somebody whose life you respect, take them to lunch, talk to them, and ask them how they navigated some of these questions of stewardship and entitlement.    "I don't know if this is right for everybody else, but my conclusion is, God always wants me to struggle with it. He always wants me to be asking the question, ‘Is this becoming about me and my lifestyle or the stewardship of what I entrusted to you?'" —  Cary Brown   Episode References:  Kingdom Giving Fund: https://www.kingdomgivingfund.com/   About Cary Brown: Cary Brown is a co-founder of The Moriah Group.

“Send Coach John a message”Found a great post connected to “The Masters” (@TheMasters) - this post from Brad Stulberg (@BStulberg) where he shares a wonderful picture of golf fans watching “One of the best parts of the Masters golf tournament: the no phone rule. It's awesome to see so many people locked in and sharing an experience with full presence. As I write in The Way of Excellence: “Excellence requires intimacy—minimizing distractions and getting as close as possible to your pursuit. It is a powerful antidote to modern feelings of disconnection, dissociation, and numbness.” I have no doubt a big part of the aura at the Masters is its intimacy. This would be impossible if everyone had their phones. There's much to learn from this, and not just for golf.”  I shared two posts about this on my Twitter / X account and I'll do the same on my Facebook page too - and I'll try to put them on Instagram too.  The other one was from Matt Van Swol (@mattvanswol) where he shared this thought:  “Say what you want about The Masters... But there is nowhere else on planet earth where you will see a photo of humans like this where not a single one of them is looking at a phone. Truly one of the most beautiful things.” As I'm typing this, I am asking for you to go use your “device” to look at people having an amazing time, when they are not using their “devices.”  HA… as I'm typing this line, I had to laugh out loud as to what I'm asking you to do.   I know I need to stay off my “devices”, but there are good things out there that we can connect with to help us live our best lives. Part of this for me coming up is a breakfast connection with one of my longest known & best friends, Scott. We have known each other for roughly 55 years and we had breakfast celebrating my birthday back a couple of months ago, and now it's his turn. This is one of those things that I know I need to continue to make time for because it's really what life is all about. Great lessons and reminders from sports, especially (what I feel) is the greatest sporting event around.  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.  ** I would appreciate anyone to try clicking on the top of the show notes where it says "Send us a text" to leave a few thoughts / comments / questions.  It's a new feature that I'd like to see how it works. **

“Send Coach John a message”This podcast from John O'Leary (@JOLearyInspires)- (Episode 870) This is an incredible episode that made a big impact on me while I was mowing my front lawn yesterday. John has a conversation with Piera Gelardi and here is a bit from the show notes: “Today, Piera shares how growing up in a small town in Maine shaped her sense of wonder, how building a global brand led to unexpected self-doubt and burnout, and how reclaiming play became her path back to creativity, connection, and joy. She explains practical ways to integrate playfulness into our daily lives and how small moments can shift perspectives, deepen connection, and bring more curiosity, wonder, and joy into everyday life.”  As I was listening to this, there were many thoughts running through my head as to why I needed to connect to this connection of joy, wonder, happiness, authenticity, and to continue trying to be the best version of myself. One of the biggest impacts this made with me was connected to something from my previous episode, #1846 - “The Magic You're Looking For” and the part where my former student Ashley posted a picture from our Principles of Leadership class. It got me remembering that really, I don't think there was ever a day in my teaching career, where I did NOT laugh at school! Mostly from my students, but my coworkers too! How much I missed this truth in my life today being retired. It's something that I seek every day, and usually find it - joy, gratitude & laughing. What an important part of life! It's a must!

Host Ricky Sacks is joined by Sports & Entertainment Financial Planner Adam Osper and Chartered Accountant Connor as we review Spurs' latest set of financial results with huge debt revealed amid the club's ongoing fight to avoid relegation and stay in the Premier League. The Spurs hierarchy have now made their final throw of the dice in their attempts to secure the club's Premier League status, handing Roberto De Zerbi a five-year contract. Adam and Connor explain the major difficulties ahead for the Spurs if they fail to stay in the top-flight, including the need to get rid of many of their high earners if they find themselves in the Championship. Adam and Connor also provide their honest feelings on Spurs' future under The Lewis Family (ENIC), the legacy of Daniel Levy which continues to hang over the Club and finally whether the owners are here for the long-term or whether we we could see an imminent change in Ownership.
