In this episode of the Econ Dev Show, Dane Carlson talks with economic development veteran and consultant Marty Vanags about Circles of Seven, a peer-based mentoring program designed to strengthen post-startup small businesses who often fall through the cracks of traditional support systems. Marty explains how C7 groups work, why small businesses learn best from each other, and how these circles create long-lasting bonds that improve BRE, build confidence, and ultimately make communities more attractive to prospects. He also touches on Next Wave Leadership, the importance of in-person connection, and why economic developers should spend more time nurturing the businesses they already have. Like this show? Please leave us a review here (https://econdevshow.com/rate-this-podcast/) — even one sentence helps! 10 Actionable Takeaways for Economic Developers Target the "liminal stage" -- businesses past the startup phase but not yet established need the most support and often have the fewest resources. Build peer-to-peer programs, not just classes -- small businesses learn better from each other than from lectures. Recruit strong facilitators, not "experts" -- a good mentor is a steady guide, not a guru. Create predictable monthly prompts (articles, videos, questions) to spark meaningful discussion. Require at least 30 minutes on the main topic so participants get what they came for. Train facilitators in group dynamics, not business theory -- their job is to manage conversation, not teach. Use C7-style programs as BRE tools -- they put you in front of businesses you rarely interact with. Remember cash flow and time are always the biggest pain points for small businesses. Encourage in-person interaction -- especially post-COVID, live meetings build deeper relationships and accountability. Measure success by longevity -- if your groups keep meeting years later, your ecosystem is working. Special Guest: Martin Vanags.

Diese Woche dreht sich alles um die Frage, wie wir Liberating Structures zum Lernen ins Teams einsetzen können.
Jochen Robes, Weiterbildungsblogger und Hochschullehrer, analysiert die wachsende Kluft zwischen theoretischen KI-Kompetenzmodellen und deren praktischer Umsetzung in Unternehmen. Seine Kernbotschaft: Trotz klar definierter Kompetenzmodelle können Mitarbeitende mit dem rasanten Tempo der KI-Integration in Geschäftsstrategien kaum Schritt halten. Herausforderungen sind u.a. die Lücke zwischen KI-Schulungen und benötigten Kompetenzen und dass L&D oft KI nur zur Prozessoptimierung statt für neue Lernansätze nutzt. Bei Lösungsansätzen plädiert er für Peer-Learning - dem "Lernen voneinander und miteinander" und gibt konkrete Beispiele und Tips von Communities of Practice, Lernzirkeln bis Barcamps um die Kluft zwischen KI-Theorie und -Praxis zu schließen.
Episode Summary:Dave Coriale sits down with Gretchen Steenstra, Director of Project Strategy and Leadership at DelCor, and Niko Cribb, Technology Consultant at DelCor, to unpack what happened at the DelCor Bootcamp during AMS Fest. They explore the evolving challenges of AMS selection, the importance of ecosystem and context diagrams, and how associations can better prepare for system adoption. From peer-to-peer learning to the impact of private equity on vendor trust, this episode is packed with practical takeaways for association professionals navigating the complex world of association management systems. Topics & Themes:Inside the DelCor Bootcamp at AMS FestA vendor-free, candid environment where association professionals can ask real questions and get honest feedback.Bootcamp helps attendees feel more confident and prepared before engaging with vendors.Ecosystem and Context DiagramsAttendees were asked to draw their current tech ecosystem to visualize integrations and ownership.The process of creating the diagram was more valuable than the final product.Writing Better RequirementsParticipants practiced writing user story-based requirements, often for the first time.Emphasis on considering multiple perspectives: membership, finance, and member services.Understanding the Role of the Business AnalystAssociations don't need to turn staff into BAs, but must understand the BA role.Clear requirements are essential for selection, configuration, and adoption.Most AMS issues stem from poor adoption, not poor functionality.Balancing Ecosystems vs. All-in-One PlatformsDiscussion around whether to consolidate or diversify systems.Risks of over-reliance on a single platform vs. complexity of multiple systems.Private Equity and Vendor TrustMergers and acquisitions are eroding trust in vendors and direct access to decision-makers is more difficult.Associations must take ownership of training, documentation, and vendor relationships.Change Management and Adoption FearsSome staff fear change and struggle with system transitions.Bootcamp helps surface these concerns early in the process.Peer Learning and Community SupportAMS Fest's value lies in shared experiences and peer advice.One piece of advice from a peer can shift an entire selection strategy.Final Question: What's Got You Worked Up?Gretchen: Frustrated by the lack of payoff from private equity investment in platforms.Niko: Wants more associations to engage in the conversation and learn from peers.
Most agencies are burning out their team to protect their bottom line.More remarketing. More manual quoting. More inefficiencies.All while margins get tighter — and expectations get higher.This week on Getting Past the Premium, Elliot sits down with Chris Peabody from Ascend to unpack what the most forward-thinking agencies are doing differently:✅ Automating the right processes✅ Embedding AI in invisible, high-impact ways✅ Standardizing workflows without losing trust✅ And actually measuring ROI before adopting new toolsThis episode isn't about “using AI” — it's about building a more scalable, sustainable firm in today's reality.

Was passiert, wenn eine Logistikabteilung beginnt, sich selbst neu zu erfinden – ganz ohne offiziellen Auftrag von oben, dafür mit echtem Gestaltungswillen? Bei Frankstahl hat Roman Divoky genau diesen Weg eingeschlagen. In dieser Podcast-Folge erzählt er, wie sich die Abteilung Schritt für Schritt von einer klassisch geführten Struktur hin zu einem agilen, selbstorganisierten Team entwickelt hat. Anstatt auf starre Hierarchien und Change-Prozesse mit PowerPoint zu setzen, vertraute das Team auf Peer-Learning, Eigenverantwortung und eine kontinuierliche Weiterentwicklung aus dem Inneren heraus. Roman teilt offen, was diesen Weg möglich gemacht hat, welche Hürden es zu überwinden galt – und warum gerade Logistik ein ideales Umfeld für New Work ist. Ein inspirierender Erfahrungsbericht für alle, die daran glauben, dass echte Veränderung nicht von oben kommen muss, um Wirkung zu zeigen. Über meinen Gesprächspartner Roman Divoky ist Experte für New Work und agile Transformation – insbesondere in der Logistikbranche. Mit über 30 Jahren Erfahrung in Führungs- und Entwicklungspositionen begleitet er Frankstahl bei der erfolgreichen Umsetzung moderner Arbeitskonzepte und agiler Strukturen. Aktuell ist er Logistikleiter bei Frankstahl, einem führenden Stahlhandelsunternehmen in Österreich. Parallel dazu wirkt er intern als TÜV-zertifizierter Agile Coach und extern als Keynote-Speaker, Workshop-Leiter und Berater. Sein Ziel: Teams und Organisationen auf ihrem Weg in die Zukunft der Arbeit zu unterstützen – agiler, effizienter und nachhaltiger. Als Autor des Buchs „New Work Now“ teilt Roman zudem praktische Ansätze und Strategien für neue Arbeitsmodelle. Für ihn steht fest: New Work ist kein Trend, sondern eine notwendige Weiterentwicklung der Arbeitswelt. Über das Unternehmen Frankstahl ist ein europaweit führendes Stahlhandelsunternehmen mit Wurzeln in Wien seit 1880. Unter der Leitung von Marcel Javor in zweiter Generation verbindet das Familienunternehmen Tradition mit Innovation.

In this podcast episode, host Michelle Frechette interviews Kyle Van Deusen, who runs a small web agency in Richmond, Virginia, and founded "The Admin Bar," a community for freelancers and agency owners. They discuss the 2025 WordPress Professional Survey, which Kyle conducted to gather insights from web professionals. The survey, which received 1,233 responses, highlights the experiences and challenges faced by freelancers and agency owners.Top TakeawaysMany Agency Owners Lack Business Fundamentals: A lot of agency owners start by accident, not with a business plan. As a result, many undercharge and lack confidence in setting prices. Kyle pointed out that few are reaching their income goals—not due to market limits, but because they don't know what's possible. This shows a big need for basic business education around pricing, value, and financial planning.Marketing and Networking Are Largely Overlooked: Nearly 60% of respondents aren't doing in-person networking, and many aren't investing in marketing. Too many rely on being found organically, which isn't enough anymore. Kyle and Michelle highlighted that growth requires showing up, building relationships, and actively promoting your services.Community Helps Build Confidence and Clarity: Talking with peers can shift your mindset and pricing strategy. Kyle shared how learning what others charged helped him raise his rates confidently. Community support helps agency owners avoid mistakes, learn faster, and feel less alone in their journey.The Survey Is a Valuable, Underused Resource: Kyle stressed that the real power of the survey lies in how people use it. By digging into the data, agency owners can find paths others have taken to success. The more participation it gets, the more valuable and representative it becomes for the whole community.Mentioned in the Show:https://theadminbar.com/2025-survey/https://theadminbar.com/https://www.facebook.com/groups/2147806538801573

Studying communication science, she thought it might lead her to be a writer or a journalist one day, but after some professional exploration, she pivoted to talent development. At Dynatrace, she is designing educational programs targeted at people's soft skills. At first, she introduced peer-to-peer learning programs for 1,200 people in our R&D team but is now working on scaling them company-wide. One of her projects, LEAP, is a community of more than 40 Dynatracers passionate about inspiring people's leadership and enhancing communication and collaboration by being a sparring partner for teams or facilitating learning sessions about presentation practice, feedback, collaboration, body language, and critical conversations. Such programs create spaces where people connect and feel safe to grow, experiment, and challenge ideas at Dynatrace, ultimately fostering a sense of belonging. Tune in to hear more about Talent Development's role in tech companies and Viky's career story.

Devon Zuegel: How To Create A New Town - [Invest Like the Best, EP.413] My guest today is Devon Zuegel. Devon is the founder and president of the Esmerelda Institute, and she is creating a new town called Esmerelda in California wine country. Learning of Devon and her plan, I couldn't help but wonder why there aren't more people building new towns. She shares the origin story of her project Esmeralda, a modern reinvention of the Chautauqua community she cherished growing up, and we explore her fascinating work building communities and reimaging how we live together. We discuss how environments fundamentally shape human behavior, how cost of space impacts creativity, the financial challenges of town-building despite their potential for strong returns, and the plans in place for Esmerelda.

In 2009 Netflix caused a huge stir in the HR and tech worlds with their 125 page slide deck that set out a new way of leading people. Whilst many companies have now adopted their concepts such as ‘freedom with accountability', the rejection of the idea that businesses are a family, and the so-called Keeper Test, Netflix were the first major corporation to introduce them. In this episode, Kenny Temowo, a senior member of the Leadership Culture & Talent Development team at Netflix, describes the on-going impact of these pioneering principles. Kenny describes the role of creativity within organizational culture and the importance of an environment that encourages risk-taking and playfulness. We look at how to combine alignment with company-wide approaches with meeting the needs of local teams. And we explore Netflix's distinctive leadership seminars, which foster leadership excellence through engaging stories, poetry, and articles. This approach encourages leaders to navigate real-world challenges without traditional learning objectives, creating an immersive experience that empowers leaders to find solutions collectively. As an added bonus, we discuss our shared love for British Blue Shorthair cats! Whether you're an HR enthusiast, a leader, or a cat lover, this episode has something for everyone!

In this episode, Bob Bennett, a seasoned entrepreneur, Founder and former CEO of Microfridge, Invoice Cloud, and EngageSmart, delves into the crucial role of luck in success and life. He shares insights on dispelling the myth that only extroverted individuals can excel in sales, emphasizing the power of building rapport. Bob articulates strategies for effective sales management, including the importance of embracing awkwardness and fostering trust. He discusses his leadership philosophy centered around an inverted pyramid, where leaders work for their team. Lastly, Bob provides actionable advice for new sales leaders, highlighting the significance of being a 'player-coach' and the importance of compounding experiences. Takeaways: Luck and Adversity as Motivators: Embrace the role of luck and adversity in shaping one's career. Leaders should recognize that seemingly negative experiences can fuel motivation and resilience, driving individuals toward success.The Myth of Extroversion in Sales Success: Understand that successful salespeople do not necessarily fit the extroverted, gregarious stereotype. Introverts can excel in sales by leveraging their strengths, such as listening and focus, which often lead to high performance.Building Genuine Rapport: Encourage your team to build genuine rapport with clients. Invest time in understanding prospects on a personal level, as trust is a cornerstone of successful sales. Teach your team to get 'awkward' early to break down barriers and build authentic connections.4Compound Experience for Success: Promote the importance of putting in extra effort consistently. Small incremental efforts compound over time, resulting in significant experience and expertise, much like compound interest. Encourage your team to go the extra mile consistently.Servant Leadership: Adopt an inverted pyramid approach where leaders see themselves as working for their team. Focus on removing barriers for your team members, providing them with the support they need to succeed, and fostering a culture of mutual respect and collaboration.Embrace and Manage Awkwardness: Teach your team to embrace awkwardness in initial interactions. Use it as an opportunity to develop a bond and establish a peer-to-peer relationship with prospects, which is instrumental in building trust and credibility.Peer Learning and Knowledge Sharing: Foster a culture of knowledge sharing where top performers share their successful strategies with others. This not only helps in leveling up the entire team but also reinforces and rewards collaborative behavior, leading to collective success.Quote of the Show:“dealing with people and helping them grow as individuals is one of the most rewarding things you can do.” - Bob BennettLinks:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/bob-bennett-488b888/ Website: https://www.engagesmart.com/ Ways to Tune In:Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0Yb1wPzUxyrfR0Dx35ym1A Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/coach2scale-how-modern-leaders-build-a-coaching-culture/id1699901434 Google Podcasts: https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9mZWVkcy50cmFuc2lzdG9yLmZtL2NvYWNoMnNjYWxlLWhvdy1tb2Rlcm4tbGVhZGVycy1idWlsZC1hLWNvYWNoaW5nLWN1bHR1cmU Amazon Music: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/fd188af6-7c17-4b2e-a0b2-196ecd6fdf77 Podchaser: https://www.podchaser.com/podcasts/coach2scale-how-modern-leaders-5419703 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@Coach2Scale CoachEm™ is the first Coaching Execution Platform that integrates deep learning technology to proactively analyze patterns, highlight the "why" behind the data with root causes, and identify the actions that will ultimately improve business results going forward.

So, let's redefine what it means to be an effective leader. In this heartening conversation, we encourage you to become a 'people gardener' - a leader who pushes boundaries and stretches beyond their norm. Our exploration of leadership doesn't end at owning a small business or managing a team, it's about being open to change and growth, making this discussion relevant for anyone in the professional space. This episode is not only a source of learning but a call to action, challenging you to take the next step in personal and professional growth. Embark on this journey with us, and let's grow together.
