Chris shares some growing trends he has seen in the market, with Cyber Insurance becoming a key player as it touches so many commercial verticals. Chris shares some key examples of how Cyber losses are an increased area of concern for the Construction Industry leaving our audience three key takeaways. 1. Cyber Risk is Growing: As the Construction Industry continues to grow and advance through technology, cyber risks are going to become a more significant concern. As the risks continue to evolve in the years ahead, be sure to stay vigilant and plan for the upcoming challenges. 2. Be Mindful of Your Technology Partners: It is imperative that you choose your technology partners wisely, as their IT infrastructure adds another element of risk to your business. Make sure you are proactive when addressing data integration and protecting not only your business but partnering with firms that have taken similar precautions with theirs. 3. Cyber Insurance: a Must Have: Although not always at the front of mind for many in the Construction Industry, it is important to secure and utilize Cyber Insurance. This is an important tool, like many other lines of insurance, that allows for the transfer of risk and can help mitigate and educate insureds looking to protect against cyber occurrences. To learn more about how you can better prepare your firm for the opportunities ahead, listen to our full podcast episode with Chris on “Cyber Insurance, a growing need for the Construction Industry.” Please like, share, and subscribe to this podcast!

The state of charitable giving has a profound impact on hundreds of nonprofit organizations throughout Central Ohio, ranging from mighty arts, healthcare, and higher education institutions to local civic clubs and direct service providers. Trends in giving affect all of them — from the decline of giving among “everyday households,” increasing dependence on high-net-worth donors, trends in corporate giving, and the rise of donor advised funds, this dynamic sector represents more than 12% of Ohio's workforce – about as many as are employed in manufacturing. Following the June 25 release of Giving USA's annual report, we host a landmark conversation diving into the state and future of charitable giving.  Featuring: Erika Gable, President, Association of Fundraising Professionals, Central Ohio Chapter Rachel Lustig, CEO, Lutheran Social Services Dr. Una Osili, Associate Dean for Research and International Programs, Indiana University Lilly Family School of Philanthropy, who also provides opening remarks.  The host is Laura MacDonald, Principal & Founder, Benefactor Group Opening remarks by Dan Sharpe, Vice President for Community Research and Grants Management, The Columbus Foundation.

Guillaume Wiatr is the author of Strategic Narrative and the Principal/Founder of MetaHelm, a strategy consulting firm specializing in helping business leaders unlock profit and energize their team with a shared narrative grounded in their organization's purpose. His work teaches leaders how to build a strategic narrative. We discussed all of this and more this week on the On Brand podcast. About Guillaume Wiatr Guillaume Wiatr is the author of Strategic Narrative: A Simple Method That Business Leaders Can Use to Make Everyone Understand Their Business, Get Behind it and Believe In It. His company, MetaHelm, guides CEOs, founders, and business owners to align teams and accelerate innovation adoption. A former big-firm strategy consultant, Guillaume has founded four ventures. He is sought after by senior executives of companies like Alaska Airlines, the Gates Foundation, Generations For Peace, AIG, L'Oréal, Spencer Stuart, GAP, Google, Microsoft, and the US and French governments. Guillaume teaches and mentors entrepreneurs at startup incubators, EMLyon international business school, and the University of Washington Master of Science in Entrepreneurship, ranked #3 in the US.   Episode Highlights Storytelling vs. Strategic Narrative. We can't resist definitions here on the On Brand podcast. As Guillaume was quick to note, businesses have many different stories. “Narratives are systems of stories that you intentionally design to bring customers on your journey.” “Strategic narrative is an act of leadership.” Of course, this work should involve the usual suspects from branding and marketing but for your narrative to shape your organization's culture the CEO has to be “holding the pencil” as you facilitate these important conversations. Guillaume reinforced this with a story from his work with Horizon Airlines. “Leadership is not a title,” notes Guillaume. “It's who shows up to participate in a conversation that has an impact on the brand.” What brand has made Guillaume smile recently? In keeping with the idea of bringing about transformation, Guillaume cited the work of Girl's Garage.

Can sound help us disconnect from unhealthy habitual patterns? Today's guest Alexandre Tannous, creator of the Sound Meditation protocol, shows how we can use harmonic frequencies to release trauma, enhance self-awareness and live happier, healthier lives. Our conversation begins with Alexandre's explanation of harmonic frequencies and the problem with the quantization of the 12-tone scale. We discuss the value of sound in the context of psychedelic experiences, as well as sound meditation protocols (set and setting). We conclude with issues that need to be addressed when working with these powerful tools. Alexandre Tannous is an ethnomusicologist, sound therapist, and sound researcher. He is also the Principal Founder of ResonantMind Collective. For the past 22 years Alexandre has been researching the therapeutic and esoteric properties of sound from three different perspectives – Western scientific, Eastern philosophical, and shamanic societal beliefs – to gain a deeper understanding of how sound has been used to affect human consciousness. This search has led him to where art, science, philosophy, and spirituality intersect. He continues to do research on sound, currently works as a sound therapist, teaches the method he has created, and lectures about sound throughout the world.

The CBA supplies the industry with standards, connections, and solutions. Formally known as the Cookware Manufacturers Association, at the beginning of 2022, the name had officially changed to the Cookware & Bakeware Alliance, or the CBA. Making the change wasn't done overnight. There was a lot that went into making the change. There was a lot of thought and many meetings to flesh out just the right words to rebrand the organization to align with its mission. CBA Managing Director, Fran Groesbeck, along with Tom Mirabile, Principal & Founder of Springboard Futures and Leann Schwarzkopf, Founder and Owner of Project Partners Network formed a team to uncover the new name of the organization to take it into the future. In today's episode, you'll hear the round-table discussion with Fran, Tom, and Lee Ann as they share the process of coming up with the new name…Cookware & Bakeware Alliance.

When is a building more than just a thing, and it becomes smart? When it can adjust to the needs of its tenants, occupants, workers, and guests, that's when. In this podcast, we learn what this means and how our spaces should adapt to us and not the other way around.Please listen as Sean chats with designer Todd Boucher to discuss this and the future of living as our society becomes more technologically advanced.The design, construction, existence, and maintenance of smart buildings is a complex system that involves many parts and many players. Sure, there are the people inside the building that get to experience what it has to offer. Still, the building owners, the building managers, the maintenance crew, and even external entities such as the community and social services and emergency response may also interact with the building.Each party has its own perspective on what is essential. The building owner may care most about the cost to build and maintain the building. The building manager may care most about keeping the systems up and running for all tenants and guests. The tenants themselves also have their own perspective on what's important — safety, comfort, lifestyle, and convenience might top the list for this group.The system is complex, and it could be pretty challenging to create a space that gives everyone involved what they want. It's almost sure that trade-offs will need to be made. Unless, however, technology can be utilized to identify and dynamically bridge those gaps that would otherwise force tough decisions to be made.The answers are in the decision that needs to be made to start the thinking process and drive those. Is the technology that tells what can be done and drive itself, or is what technology can do to satisfy the humans' need and desires that will bring life into those spaces.When it comes to technology, nearly everything is possible, but things shouldn't be done just because they are possible. We need better drivers than that. Don't we?What do you think?GuestTodd Boucher, Principal & Founder at Leading Edge Design Group (@toddmboucher on Twitter)This Episode's SponsorsBlackCloak: https://itspm.ag/itspbcwebRSA Security: https://itspm.ag/itsprsawebResourceshttps://videos.ces.tech/detail/videos/sessions/video/6233420122001/healthy-buildings-healthy-livesTo see and hear more The Cyber Society content on ITSPmagazine, visit:https://www.itspmagazine.com/the-cyber-societyTo see and hear more Redefining Technology stories on ITSPmagazine, visit:https://www.itspmagazine.com/redefining-technologyAre you interested in sponsoring an ITSPmagazine Channel?https://www.itspmagazine.com/podcast-series-sponsorships

The truth comes with every phone conversation, every email or text received: your customer base is more diverse than ever. And nowhere is this new reality experienced more than in your brand’s marketing efforts. A marketer’s ability to navigate the shifting cultural landscape plays a crucial component in your organization’s ability to forge long-term success. With an ever changing marketplace, organizations who are considered to be the leaders in employee and customer engagement understand that opportunities to connect with new customers and increase marketplace presence are endless - but building these relationships take time. The dividends, however, are both tangible and sustainable. Key Topics -Cultural Competence -Multiethnic Marketing -Diversity -Inclusion Skot Welch Skot is the Principal/Founder of Global Bridgebuilders (GBB), a firm focusing on Organizational Development, Cultural Transformation and Inclusion. Global Bridgebuilders is an international team providing services to enterprises across the globe. GBB bases its work on the core belief that inclusion is a business discipline and that it should be leveraged across all that the enterprise does. To gain this leverage, the firm applies a continuous improvement model, anchored in metrics. Skot has been a global bridge builder long before he founded the company in 2006. Growing up in a military family gave Skot a unique perspective on diversity that he still carries and a passion for helping organizations tap into the vast experiences of their employees to create stronger businesses.

Agriculture is an $84B industry in North Carolina that supports more than 600,000 jobs. North Carolina has set a goal of growing that industry by 20% in the next few years. Part of that goal will have to be buying more local food and right now less than 1% of our food dollars stays in North Carolina. So buying more local gets those dollars circulating around in our economy and that helps everyone. This week’s First In Future Guest is Erin White, is the principal founder of the Community Food Lab (communityfoodlab.org), which is an ambitious effort to build a Triangle-wide food system working with and for farmers and foodies to bring together rural and urban people into a dialogue about their shared interests. Listen as we learn the fascinating life story of Erin moving from being a farm manager at a camp to a construction work to an architect to a chef and now head of the Community Food Lab. Community Food Lab one of the five efforts that the Institute for Emerging Issues will be featuring at our Forum on Connecting Rural and Urban. If you want to learn more, please attend our Forum on Connecting Rural and Urban and go to our website emergingissues.org to sign up. We promise you an exciting day, with conversations about transportation connections, affordable housing, workforce development, economic development, opioids and behavioral health, culture and recreation and Erin will be there talking about the critical role of food systems.

Books and Resources Recommended Nothing Down by Robert Allan The Psychology of Winning by Denis Waitley Unlimited Power by Tony Robbins The works of Milton H Erickson Measure What Matters by John Doerr High Output Management by Andy Grove The 4 Disciplines of Execution CONNECT WITH ROLAND FRASIER DigitalMarketer.com RolandFrasier.com LUNCH TIMES WITH ROLAND FRASIER PODCAST Check it our here...just launched. QUOTES AND KEY POINTS BY ROLAND FRASIER When I read Robert Allen's book on real estate, it was just amazing to me that you could buy real estate with no money down, and the first time that you do that, I always, when I talk about buying companies with no money down, so the impact for me was to ultimately I took those principles and so what if I just did that with companies, and it turns out you can. The Denis Waitley (Psychology of Winning) one for me was that I had never really, no one had before that exposed me to the thought of setting goals. And, so the biggest thing that I got out of Dennis's thing was that the people who set goals achieve them and people who don't, don't typically. That you have to have some thing that you're working towards or you're just kind of floating, and then he talked in that about visualisation and how athletes who he trained, and he sort of trained Olympic athletes and astronauts and all these amazing people and actually did studies where they would visualise themselves on the bench pushing the weight up and that, that enabled them in their minds to go and actually lift the weights that they hadn't lifted before. Roy H. Williams, who I just recently was exposed to, he's called the wizard of ads in Austin. And, he says that for ads, you have to take the mind first to the place that the body will then go. So, in your advertisements, you need to take people in their minds to the place that you want their fingers on the keyboard or their bodies or their dollars to go in the future, because if you don't paint that story and take them there, then they don't ever go. So, that was the big thing I think from Dennis. And, then Tony did a fantastic job of synthesising the work of Milton Erickson, and Richard Bandler, and John Grinder from neuro linguistic programming and hypnosis into a, especially in unlimited power into a very digestible, understandable, nonscientific layman's kind of approach or laypersons approach to that science of NLP. "Everything that you want to accomplish can be accomplished with mentoring, modelling and masterminding" HOW TO BUY FOR NO MONEY DOWN - AN EXAMPLE And, it was a gentleman who was interested in buying an eCommerce, not an eCommerce, it was actually a wholesale, I'm trying to think of how to do it without giving it away. It was a wholesale concrete business and this was the manufacturer of this kind of cool type of concrete. And, so my friend was interested in acquiring that company but didn't have the money to do it. It was doing about two and a half, $3,000,000 a year. It was profitable at about a 150 to $200,000 a year profit. So, in the neighbourhood of eight to 10% profit. And, he didn't have any money or know anything other than he'd been talking to the owner and the owner was interested in selling, and he was interested in buying, and the owner was only selling through print ads in magazines. So, like old school, old school, right? Print ads in magazines had never, and was selling direct to customers. So, had never sold directly to wholesalers and had never sold online. So, it was really kind of an interesting opportunity and had had inquiries before, but it was like, nah, I don't know how all that internet stuff works and I don't want to hassle with other people who are reselling. So, I just want to sell to the customers, and he said, "But I'm thinking I've got this other thing that I want to do. I've invented something else that I'm really interested in", now so one of the biggest, coolest things is when you find someone who's already in their mind, sold their business, like they're done, even if it's a good business, a truly creative entrepreneur frequently is tired of the business they're in, and looking to the next business that they can be in. So, that's a really positive sign. And, I said, "Well, the first thing that I always like to ask people, what are you going to do with the money?", and, he's like, why? And, he's like, "He's gonna tell me it's none of my business", I said, "No, it's actually a 100% about your business because if you can figure out what he or she is going to do with the money, then you'll find out exactly how much they actually need right now". And, he's like, okay. So, he went and asked him and the guy said, "Well, it's going to cost me about $200,000 to do the mouldings for this new thing that I've invented". I was like, great. I said, "And what are you going to do with the rest of the money?". He said, "I'll have it for working capital or investments or whatever", and I said, "Great". I said, "So, you should be able to buy that company for $200,000 down", and he said, "Okay, well how?", I said, "Because that's all the guy needs to do that. And, if you can find out what the deal is on the mouldings that he needs for this invention that he's got and you can get him those without you having to come out of pocket $200,000, you can buy that business for no money down". So, the thing that I always look for is what are they going to do with the money and then how much is it going to actually cost to do the next thing that they want to do. And, if they just want to have money for investments, chances are really good they'll carry back. So, they will finance the acquisition for you. So, great. So, now he's down to $200,000. And I said "Okay, so you need $200,000 to do this", I said, "He probably doesn't need $200,000 right now to do that". I said, "Ask him what is the process with the people that he's talking about doing the mouldings", and it turned out that he only needed like about 80 grand. I was like, great, you only need $80,000 now, because the way that you pay for the mouldings is this, and the business is actually making money. So, let's let the business pay for everything except the actual cash dollars that he needs right now today. And, he was like, great. So, we went back and talked to the guy and the guy was like, yeah, okay, I could do that. And, it's like, so you know that the money's going to come, so you transfer the business to me, I will assign you the money that the business is making until you get that $200,000 that you need and I'll secure the rest of the business with the stock and the business that I'm buying. Fantastic. Well, what we knew was that if we could get a small deferral period, then my friend could go out and go to all of the wholesalers who had already inquired about making wholesale purchases for the company and do deals with them to raise the $80,000 that he needed to put down. So, all they needed to do was have a period of time where he could do that. So, we negotiated a 60 day period where he would get to do that during the due diligence period for looking at the company. Right? And, so then he was able to raise the money, cut the deal to get advanced purchase orders from the people who were the wholesalers who had already asked and inquired, and then he went out and he did the deal with no money down. So, and that's a very abbreviated process of that, right? It's just being creative enough to find out what do they actually want, what are they going to do the money with and what are all of the pieces that are available to you right now to generate the money without having to come out of pocket? And, to me it's a game, right? I just don't, like when I have the money to buy a business, I don't want to pay anything down for it because I want the business to pay for itself. That's a fun game to play, right? ON BEING CREATIVE IN YOUR BUSINESS DEALS So, if a business deal, a marketing problem, a business problem comes to me, I'm thinking about everything that I know that I've encountered before in every situation that is not business, as much as I am business. And then it's somehow identifying not being constrained, I guess, to a formula that let's say, I'll use business acquisitions as an example because I think it's a good one, is the way you buy businesses, you pay money for it. I don't accept that, right? I don't accept that as a fact of how you buy businesses. And, so if somebody says, well, you buy a business, then you pay money for it or you trade something for it, and the way that you get money as you get money from a bank or you get money from an investment banker or you get a loan. None of that right is completely acceptable to me. And, so if you go through, the Toyota's system of the 'five why's' of if you want to get to the root of any problem in manufacturing, the machine failed. Why did the machine fail? The machine failed because the ball bearings failed. Why did the ball bearings fail? Because, they were not properly oiled and maintained. Why were they not properly hold and maintains? Because, there's no system for doing that. And, if you keep asking those questions, usually within five times of asking it deep, you get to an answer that is the true answer. And, so I like to do that with buying a business, I'll call it the 'five buys', so I can buy it for cash. Great, what if I can't buy it for cash? Oh, well then you're going to get a loan. What if I can't get a loan? Well, then you're going to need to find another way, right? And, you go through all of that and at the end, if you do that exercise with pretty much any problem that you're trying to solve, and instead of accepting the traditional ways or the ways that you could do it easily, think about what if I didn't have that? What if that wasn't possible? And, then it just really makes you think about all of the other things that you could do and you come up with a creative solution that can get you buying houses, or companies, or solving huge problems that you might not have otherwise been able to because it was too easy to do that. It's too easy to say, well, I need money to buy a business. Okay, well I can't get it, therefore I can't buy the business. No, what if you couldn't buy businesses for money? Right. Does that make sense? Somebody explained to me the other day, a medical doctor who was trying to explain how a stroke affects people, and he said, "Look, a stroke is pathways to the brain, and imagine that you always go down the interstates and you, let's say that you now you can't go down the interstate and you have to take the side streets. Could you get to that place by doing that?", and the answer is yes. And I was like, okay, well now what if I said you can't, you can go that side street way but you can't take any of the main streets on the side streets that you're used to, and that's what happens in a stroke situation with thought, that our thoughts are not allowed to go down the main way and they're not allowed to go down the side streets, but they start down the side streets and several of the main side streets that they know are missing.  And, now what are you going to do? And, that's why it's so hard to form speech or things like that when you go through something like that. And, I think that if you can simulate that a bit by removing all of the normal, easy, well travelled roads to solve a problem that you're trying to solve, then you're forcing yourself to be truly creative in how can I get to the end result? And, it might be harder, but it might be that in fact the main roads in that situation like bank financing is a perfect example, isn't available, that it's not an option because you don't have the assets, or the wherewithal or whatever to make that happen, or the business doesn't have the fundamentals or you don't want to personally guarantee it because you don't want to risk your own capital. And, so I like the creativity of challenging yourself to remove the easy ways to do things, and think about how can I accomplish this a different way? ON THE WAR ROOM MASTERMIND It's eight years old now and we have 165 people in it. We had limited it to 100 for several years and just in 2018 decided that we were going to expand it, but it's a collection of people who are, you have to be doing a minimum of a million dollars a year to be in it, but really the average is probably between five and 85 and 60 million. We have several people that are in the hundreds of millions of dollars in sales, and two members now that are over a billion dollars. Which is really cool because in that group, the goal I think of a group like that is that you have people who have been where you want to be, or are where you want to be and can reach a hand down and pull you up and tell you the things that you need, the things that are different. The things that won't work, that are working now. That kind of stuff, and so I think that's really valuable all along the spectrum of revenue. And, then the people who are at the higher levels get to see the agility of the people who are, and the scrappiness of the people who are at the lower levels so that they can say, well we shouldn't take two years to bring this thing to market. We should be able to do, so it's a really cool mix of people who have really big companies and people who have smaller companies, but all of them are taking action and doing things and sharing in a very open, giving, vulnerable, atmosphere and everyone's goal is to double their business each year that they're in the programme. And, you end up making really great friends and that leads to all these ridiculously good contacts. So, it's very exciting for me. I have a really unique perspective because I was a member for three years before I became a partner in digital marketer. I've bought into the business with Ryan and Perry. I did that with also no money down, by the way. So, hopefully they're not listening to this, because, you know? But, that perspective of being in there three years and seeing the tremendous value of the relationships that I had, but also seeing as a customer, the things that I thought were limitations of it was really helpful. So, when I became a partner and ultimately that became a business unit that I'm running, to responsible for anyway. I don't really run anything, but I was able to bring that in and say, here's some changes we should make that I think we can serve people better, and every year it changes. It's always evolving. And, so we're in our eighth year of evolution and probably still 20 years away from the perfection that we seek, if we ever can achieve that, but we learn more, I mean, I can literally say that I would pay to be in there if I didn't get to be in there because I run it. I would pay to be in there because I did pay to be in there and I did experience the growth and I did see the magic of that group. And, there aren't many, there's no group that's like that, but there are several, like the genius network from a networking standpoint, and meeting a different group of people is fantastic. And, so I belong to about five or six different groups because they radically expand my network, and the money that I pay to be in them is dwarfed constantly by the deal flow, and the learnings that I get from the folks that I would not have otherwise encountered.
