My team—brilliant, capable, ready—was circling my Slack like planes at LAX waiting to land. All because they were waiting… on me.Delegation wasn't just a to-do I hadn't gotten around to—it was the leadership skill I was avoiding. Out of fear. Out of habit.

You are not broken—you're bottlenecked. And that's fixable.Let's get into it. Want to increase revenue and impact?

Today's guest sits at the epicentre of the football business. Charlie Marshall is the CEO of The European Club Association (ECA), the hugely influential organisation, which is the only group officially recognised by both UEFA and FIFA as the sole, independent body for football clubs at European level.We talk about the big issues facing the game in the post-Super League era, as ECA seeks to balance the sometimes conflicting objectives of its constituency of members, from the biggest clubs in the world to some of Europe's minnows and everyone in between. Topics covered include:The changing format and access to Uefa club competitionsThe likely impact of new financial regulationsThe rules on multi club ownershipThe future of the women's gamePlayer release for national team competitionsThe commercial management of competitions and revenue distribution among clubs.Last year, Uefa and the ECA signed a further letter of intent ahead of the creation of a new joint venture to oversee the commercial management of Uefa club competitions.Uefa Club Competitions SA (UCCSA) oversaw a global agency tender process that led to the Team Marketing agency retaining the mandate to sell broadcast, sponsorship and licensing rights to Uefa club competitions from 2024-25 to 2026-27. The mandate excluded US broadcast rights, which are being sold by the Relevent Sports Group agency over the same period in a deal worth a minimum guarantee of $250m (€260m) per year.UCCSA is now considering whether to take the commercial rights sales in house from 2027-28 onwards, a process overseen by ECA chair Nasser Al-Khelaifi, who is also chairman of Qatar Sports Investments (QSi) sovereign wealth fund , chair of BeIN Sports, the Qatar based broadcaster, and President of French club PSG.This is an episode of Re:Thinking Sport, our series created in collaboration with Portas, the global strategy consultancy dedicated to sport and physical activity.  Jon Culligan, a partner at Portas, is my co-host for this episode.  Unofficial Partner is the leading podcast for the business of sport.

These executives, these VITOs don't care about us until they understand what we could do for them, and so take the word ‘I' out of your vocabulary, just replace it with the word we or our.”Tony - The importance of having a process: “Every successful VITO has a process in place for doing everything they want to measure and achieve. Processes are critically important for us to show VITO that whether we're leaving voicemail messages or we're sending them correspondence, we need to follow an identifiable process. So VITO sees what we're doing and can identify with it. So this is why examining our sales process and examining our prospecting process is so critically important.” Check out John McMahon's book here: https://www.amazon.com/Qualified-Sales-Leader-Proven-Lessons/dp/0578895064

If a foreigner is buying property in the restricted zones of Mexico (50 miles within the border or from the coast of Mexico), they need to make that purchase via a Mexican bank trust known as a Fideicomiso. The trust allows you to invest in any Mexican property and own it as the primary beneficiary. A Fideicomiso gives you all the rights of real estate ownership in Mexico while a Mexican bank holds the legal title to it as your trustee. You may also list secondary beneficiaries so that the Fideicomiso acts as a will in the event of your passing. Fideicomisos are structured as 50-year leases that can be continuously renewed, but don't let the term “lease” scare you. These trusts give you full ownership over the property just like you bought it in the U.S. or Canada. Getting serious about buyingAfter a buyer's offer is accepted on a property, they have three days to wire 10% of the purchase price to a third-party escrow account. For those unfamiliar, third-party escrow means a company will hold the buyer's money in trust until the transaction can be completed. They act as a neutral third party between the buyer and seller to ensure the deal's integrity. Think of the 10% going into escrow as a down payment on the property you wish to purchase. It is typically the buyer's responsibility to cover the cost of escrow ranging from $700 to $900, but it's money well spent to make sure the funds going towards the property purchase are protected.

https://propertyplanning.com.au/propertyplannerbuyerprofessor/ Weekly market updates1. NAB late to the property party – bumps up property forecast for 2021In its quarterly report, NAB has recently adjusted its property forecast for national price growth to now hit 19% in 2021. This is bumped up from its prediction 3 months ago of 14%, (and 6 months ago of 8%). Just goes to show, that if you're not a specialist in the market, you tend to lag behind the data and we're seeing that consistently across banks and investment firm economists. And of course, being bold is not how many economists like to express themselves.2. Labor reveals plans for property in the run up to the next electionA collective sigh of relief was audible all over the nation, after Labor announced that it would not be pursuing changes to negative gearing and capital gains tax. This is an encouraging result, as we are currently facing a housing crisis in our country, and the most vulnerable are experiencing challenges in the rental market. It may come as a surprise, but more than 90% of property investment only own one or two properties. Signalling that it is mum and dad investors that make up the majority of these investors, and while some could say that they are and simply looking to better their retirement, the reality is that they are providing shelter to a significant percentage of our nation's population, and unlike many other nations, Australia doesn't have a social housing policy that provisions for shelter for the majority of renters.How our ageing population drives Australian property markets1. Ikigai and retirement planning, what is your reason for being?The trio discuss the importance of retirement planning, which for our younger generations, may seem too far into the future to imagine. However, the proliferation of the FIRE movement (financial independence, retire early), has started to permeate and evolve traditional thinking around retirement ages. There are other options that investors can take to retire early, but this takes planning and sacrifice to make happen. Of course, a big part of retirement planning is ensuring that you have a reason for being (or getting out of bed each day), which the Japanese call ‘Ikigai'. So much of our identity can be connected to what we do for work, and it is important in retirement planning to ensure that you have the ability to fund your interests once work slows down or stops.2. Explaining our population pyramidOver time, the percentage of our ageing population has increased. In 1927 our population aged 65 and over was 5%, which moved to 9% by 1977 and is now 15% as at 2017. ABS Projections expect that this will have reached 22% by 2057 and 25% by 2097.3. Global impacts of an ageing populationAustralia is not the only nation facing the challenges of an ageing population. Across the globe, Japan's economy has been stagnating for decades, due to increased costs for health and retirement funding. With it's one child policy, China was heading this way too, but have since evolved their policy to mitigate the effects. If China's economy stagnates, this could have international impacts. Thankfully, Australia has one of the best retirement funding schemes in the world, but many who are currently retiring didn't have access to Superannuation for their entire working life.4. Historical and social factors that have contributed to our increasing elderly populationThe trio discuss the key changes in our society and economy that are driving our ever-increasing elderly population. From life expectancy, waves of migration activity, women in the work force, slower birth rates and families having less children.5. Changes in the workforce in relation to our older generationsOver time, we have seen huge shifts in people working longer, whether by choice or due to older age limits on pension entitlements, enforced superannuation and less reliance on welfare, kids living at home longer, and percentages of older women in the workforce double in the last 20 years, not to mention the impact of no-fault divorce and heightened divorce numbers since the 1970's… The trio discuss how these key changes have impacted the property market.6. Underemployment is becoming a major issue for over 55'sUnderemployment tracked by the ABS include the number of people who want to work more, but are unable to. Whether due to discrimination or other factors, 6.1% of our older population are underemployed, which is a big issue for many households.7. Dropping rates of home ownershipThe trio discuss the changes in our younger demographics which contribute to falling rates of home ownership. Home ownership is no longer the major aspiration that it used to be, with many more young adults choosing to study and for longer (not to mention a great holiday or two travelling the world). This delay in earning a full time income, coupled with the choice of many to start a family and get married later in life, means that home ownership rates for our younger generation are significantly lower.8. The impact on our economic outlook as our aged population increasesDue to underemployment and divorce rates, many of our ageing population are choosing to work longer, but many will need some social support when they retire. Australia will face challenges in funding aged care homes, as less of our population will be working, which means there will be less money to fund these things. Eight out of ten people who are retirement age are ‘stayers' and will elect not to downsize, which will have impacts on the supply of property and pressure for those who rent. The trio discuss some macro economic measures which could be introduced, particularly those that encourage downsizing.9. How to retire wealthyInterestingly the split of debt for households aged above 54 exhibit a relatively even division between owner occupied debt and investment debt. The main increase in investment ownership over the last two decades has been in the 50+ age group. This is not surprising as those who are further in their life's journey would be in a better financial position, they have been working for longer and may not have children to support anymore. However, it is a good reminder to our listeners that you don't need to do everything immediately, and you don't need to own many properties to supplement your superannuation. The trio give their advice to our younger generations who are looking to make smart investment decisions.Visit the show notes - https://propertyplanning.com.au/property-boom-and-price-drops-in-australia-from-2003-to-2021-ep-111/

#masculinity #responsibility #ownershipThe role of responsibility presents opportunity. When we shirk responsibility we become self-dependant instead of self-sufficient. Masculinity is not an option it is the honor , privilege and responsibility to shape and direct life.If we surrender our ownership, we forfeit our right to control our lives. As a man wanting success and freedom, you must take ownership of every situation presented. Ownership fosters growth, adaptation and progress.
