Once you hire the right people for your cafe you move on to the next decision, how to work with them to give them to set them and the business up for success. Too often the way we place and lead people is based on their job description and not so much based on their individual characteristics. How much better would your shop run if your team was given the opportunity to work in areas where they were strong and their weaknesses were not our dominant pre-occupation? Today we are goin to dive into this subject with a re-airing of a classic episode for 2019 all about working through strengths with my friend, Lisa Cummings!  Lisa Cummings is the founder of Lead Through Strengths, a firm dedicated to helping people use their strengths at work. Lisa and her team serve large teams and organizations to help them leverage the results of the CliftonStrengths (formerly StrengthsFinder) assessment. She is also the host of the popular Lead Through Strengths podcast. In this episode we are going to talk about the ways in which we can focus on and utilize our own strengths and facilitate the same opportunity for those we lead in the coffee shop.   Related episodes:  248 : The 5 Elements of Resourcing your Team 472: Why Technical Skill as a Leader is Not Enough w/ Jonathan Raymond, Refound, Author: Good Authority 415: The Best Lessons On How to Listen w/ Listening Expert, Oscar Trimboli

I want to share something new with you today—something I've been wanting to do for a long time. Most people never get to see personal development in action. It usually happens behind closed doors—between a coach and a client, or inside someone's private struggles. There's rarely a chance to witness it and learn. Until today. A few months ago, I quietly invited folks from our community to reach out if they wanted help. Jeff Currey was one of the first to raise his hand. Jeff and I worked together years ago, and until recently, we hadn't spoken in 5 or 6 years. When he reached out, we picked up right where we left off. He showed up with rare openness, and together we worked to connect the dots on things he'd already been wrestling with. We filmed the session, but honestly—it might land better if you just pop your phone in your pocket, head outside, and take a walk in the fresh Spring air while you listen. And if anyone out there is feeling as brave as Jeff—if you'd like to get coached live on a call with me (for free!)—just reach out. I'd love to hear what you take from it.

Creating and maintaining an elevated standard of hospitality is no easy task. It not only requires strategies and systems, but it requires that those providing the hospitality also experience it themselves. That people-first focus on employee satisfaction and sustainability matched with a high standard of training and a structure of operations to support  and nurture the culture is exactly what today's guests have created in their cafe.  Today we get to talk with the owners of Fount Coffee and Kitchen in Morrisville, NC!  Fount Coffee + Kitchen is owned by two husband and wife teams in Morrisville, North Carolina: Shawn and Kristen Preissner and George and Katie Kilgore. They are two local families that came together with a shared vision and passion for great coffee, food, and hospitality. They initially met in 2015, became great friends, put together a business plan, and opened the doors of Fount in December of 2018. Recognizing the need that existed in the Morrisville/Research Triangle Park community for both specialty coffee and a community gathering space, they sought to meet this need with premium menu offerings, elevated guest experience, and intentional workplace culture on the forefront of their mission. We discuss: The Founding Story of Fount Integration of corporate strategies that benefit small biz Why feedback from team members is crucial for continuous improvement. Fount Coffee's mission: to serve intentionally, excellently, and joyfully. Why the owners hold each other accountable to maintain discipline in operations. Prioritizing team morale and sustainability in the workplace. Celebrating team members' contributions. Why you should focus on financial health to allow for team investments. Efficient scheduling as a key to staff satisfaction. Barista work is more demanding than perceived. Why future growth must align with your values.

Jonathan Raymond: Good Authority Jonathan Raymond is the founder of Refound and Ren AI. He helps leaders make work a better place, one conversation at a time. He's the author of the book Good Authority: How to Become the Leader Your Team Is Waiting for and hosts the podcast of the same name. He's also the creator of The Accountability Dial, used by many in our community to support healthy accountability in their organizations. With all the tools and technology we have access to, it's so easy to fall in the trap of mostly being transactional. Yet, leadership is at its best when it elevates above the transaction and builds the broader relationship. In this conversation, Jonathan and I discuss how to make that shift. Key Points While the pandemic helped us shift in some helpful ways, it also created an environment where leaders don't always feel safe with healthy accountability. The most healthy conversations have consequences if change does not happen. The primary obstacle to holding people accountable is fear. Leaders will find times when then not able to defend themselves. Having access to too much detail is a recipe for micromanagement. The best feedback moves away from transitional and towards relational. Find places of retreat to spend unstructured, non-transactional time. Don't let the perfect get in the way of the good. Hold people accountable for the qualities of leadership, not the outcomes.

The first place you're going to see burn out in the coffee bar is in the position of management. These lucky people are not only given the task to lead the team and serve them with their role, but they are also accountable to their bosses, creating a feeling of being caught between two different groups that they have to please in their work. Almost without fail I am asked by managers over email or at conferences some version of the same question related to being frustrated at the lack of action from their boss, or that their boss is taking actions that are frustrating to them and to the team. These folks want to figure out how to navigate these situations that can often be demoralizing and creates tension in the café.  On today's episode, I am going to answer a few questions that have been sent to me that are related to this topic in hopes of creating some clarity and giving you some insights and next steps to take if you happen to find yourself in that place. Questions we address: How can a lead barista or shift lead effectively navigate a situation where an owner consistently undermines their authority? What strategies can help build trust between the owner and the staff?”   What are some effective ways to communicate with an owner who is very particular about small details, to help them see the bigger picture and trust their team   What are some constructive ways to address conflicts with an owner, especially when it feels like their approach is demotivating or causing unnecessary stress among the team?

Much of what gets written regarding the reasons behind declining standards in the coffee shop focuses on the leadership and what they can do to facilitate success. Here at KTTS there are dozens of interviews and solo episodes dedicated to this very thing. But what does not get so much air time is the reality that if we are to see a rise in standards of leadership, we must also call for a rise in personal professional work standards from staff. Culpability for the miserable state of coffee service goes both ways and often it is the leaders avoidance of dealing with toxic employees that keeps them employed thus allowing their negative influence to sabotage the success of the business, the team, and, in fact, the whole industry whose reputation is built from the interactions consumers have with "professionals". Today on this solo episode we will be exploring the reasons why so many owners refuse to deal with toxic employees in the cafe in favor of a misguided notion of giving perpetual grace that is more enablement than kind gesture.  We will also talk about what is needed if we are to make progress in the business of coffee shops. High standards are not just for owners and managers, they are for all and it is time we started creating environments that reward and recognize great work, while also not tolerating corrosive behavior and attitudes, be ti from leaders or employees.  Related episodes: 331 : The 7 Deadly Sins of my Career 031 : Essential Advice for New Baristas : Tips to help you successfully navigate and thrive in your new coffee career 194 : Encore Episode!

Being technically skilled as a leader is a small part of what makes one effective. The larger part of cafe effective leadership has to do with emotional skill and how we either create or destroy relationship in the daily life of our coffee businesses. The impact of our over-focus on technical skill leads to many cultural issues that eventually show up in the partial or total downfall of your business. Today I am please to welcome back to the show Jonathan Raymond, who is the author of the book Good Authority, which we discussed on this show 5 years ago. He is back to help us learn about emotional leadership and the insights here are nothing short of revelatory.  Jonathan is best known for his book Good Authority, How to Become the Leader Your Team is Waiting For.

Jonathan Raymond: Good Authority Jonathan spent 20 years building careers in business development and personal growth before realizing he could have the best of both worlds by starting his own company. Now, he uses those skills to advise CEOs and organizational leaders on how to create a people-first culture that drives results. As the founder of Refound, his goal is to provide clients with a partner they can trust and programs that gives managers an experience of how they can make work a better place, one conversation at a time. He's the author of the book Good Authority: How to Become the Leader Your Team Is Waiting For*. He's also the creator of the Accountability Dial, used daily by many of our members and listeners to open up more healthy dialogue inside of their teams and organizations. It may seem like you've had the same conversation about 17 times, but again you have an employee asking you, “Wait? Is this thing we're talking about supposed to be part of my job?” You again clarify their role, but you're also thinking in the back of your mind, “Really? We're having this conversation again?” In this episode, Jonathan and I discuss four questions to ask of yourself — and your employee — to align them with the role. Key Points Mangers often complain that employees do not have clarity on their roles. Separate the role from the person. Depersonalizing the role actually helps you to have a better alignment conversation. What do you want employees to be owning, thinking about, and worrying about? Those are windows into the Soul of the Role. There are three steps to role alignment: defining the role, aligning the role with the employee, and sustaining the dialogue about the role. Four questions that will help you define a role: What is the purpose of this role? What makes someone successful in this role? What are three priorities for this role in the next 90 days? Where are their decision-making rights?

Jonathan Raymond: Good Authority Jonathan Raymond is the founder of Refound, where he and his team work with organizations to create a company culture based in personal growth. He's the author of the book Good Authority: How to Become the Leader Your Team Is Waiting For*. He's also the creator of the Accountability Dial and the courses Good Accountability and Good Alignment. In this conversation, Jonathan and I discuss the importance of starting with the purpose for a role when considering how to approach one-on-ones. We frame the importance of elevation and linking professional activities with personal growth. Plus, we invite leaders to begin with a few, practical steps. Key Points Begin with the purpose of the role. Clarity on expectations and personal growth will both come from there. Utilize curiosity to begin to align on expectations and what's next. Elevation is a key competency for managers in one-on-ones. Help employees link what the role needs and how their personal growth aligns to it. Be willing to stay flexible on how often and how long you meet for. There are times when more interaction may be wise, but one-on-ones should not take over your professional life as a manager. Few managers do this well. Even small movement to get better at supporting your employees can provide big returns in retention.

Welcome to Episode 156 of Building My Legacy.In this podcast we talk with Jonathan Raymond, CEO of Refound, which offers leadership training and consulting to businesses looking to grow, build a high-performing culture and reach ambitious objectives — by blending personal and professional growth. Jonathan explores with us the need to have transparent, honest conversations if you want your managers to become better leaders who think about the future of your business … and your employees to become better people as they work to help you build a more profitable, more sustainable business. As employees become “increasingly unwilling to tolerate a disconnect between the company that they work for and what they want to see out in the world,” Jonathan believes we'll see employees demand that the company's values align with their own. To that end, he talks with us about tools he uses to have difficult conversations with managers and employees.So if you want to know:– Why you can't just say that you're a “people first business”– How meeting people “where they are” leads to a collaborative, productive conversation– About the danger of managers who are “too much in the weeds day to day”– The importance of admitting what you're bad at– How to start and manage a difficult conversation About Jonathan RaymondJonathan Raymond is an author and the CEO of Refound, a leadership training company that helps organizations unlock high-performance through transparent conversations about growth and accountability. Jonathan spent 20 years building careers in business development and personal growth before realizing that he could combine his “professional self and personal self” by starting his own company. Now he uses those skills to advise CEOs on how to make work a better place and create a culture that drives results — one conversation at a time. He is the author of Good Authority, How to Become the Leader Your Team is Waiting For.

Patrick Colletti is a leadership and organizational culture expert, champion for “refounders” and author of the upcoming leadership book Refounder. He draws on his experience as a technology executive, his business-growth expertise and a passion for company culture to share growth-oriented guidance that challenges social and cultural norms, both in the workplace and in the community. Patrick is passionate about creating flourishing businesses and empowering the next generation of Refounders — business leaders and entrepreneurs who revitalize the places where they live, work and play. Patrick is the founder, president emeritus and a current advisor of the healthcare software company Net Health. When he began his tenure as company president in 2001, Net Health was experiencing significant financial turmoil resulting in laying off all but 2 employees. Collaborating with a growing team, he grew the company that now helps heal millions of people each year. In concert with a team which included 4 private equity partners, he completed a corporate turnaround — Refounding and reinvigorating the already established organization. By utilizing a Refounder mindset as a framework for success, Patrick was able to spur rapid business growth and cultivate a flourishing corporate culture. In his debut book, Refounder (slated for publication in early 2021), he shares the experience, insights and moments of enlightenment he gained over two decades serving in multiple leader positions at Net Health, including president, chief revenue officer and chief operating officer. Through stories about well-known leaders, cities and organizations, he explores how society often reinvents for the better and reveals how individuals can assess what needs to be Refounded in their own life. Patrick infuses the Refounding spirit into everything he does, helping to Refound companies such as Think Native and Grayscale through redemptive investing, guidance and counsel. In addition, he exerts his Refounding expertise for community initiatives, recently partnering with the Pittsburgh International Airport and the organization Free the Music to display pianos designed by local artists. An innovative leader and advocate in the healthcare industry, Patrick is a frequent speaker and in-demand consultant. He has served on many boards, including Net Health, Careform (ConnectiveRx), National Foundation for Teaching Entrepreneurship (NFTE), Near Health, Pittsburgh Leadership Foundation and the Pittsburgh Technology Council. Patrick also received the Ernst and Young Entrepreneur of the Year Award in 2010, and has been featured as an expert in a variety of healthcare and business outlets, including Pittsburgh Business Times, Smart Business Network and Healthcare IT. The company's culture has won local, national, and industry awards for culture from Beckers, PBT,and Modern Healthcare. Patrick began his career as a strategy and sales leader for Dorland Data Networks, a healthcare data company, as well as American Lawyer Media (ALM), a business-to-business information and intelligence media company. As Director of Sales at ALM, he worked alongside the team that launched an online marketplace and content portal, known now as LAW.com. Patrick graduated from Muskingum University in New Concord, Ohio, with a bachelor of arts double major in business and philosophy. He currently resides with his family in Pittsburgh, Penn. “determine the just purpose of your organisation. Whether that's a not-for-profit or for-profit organisation.

Today’s episode marks the first episode for Asian American History Month. Given the political climate in the US right now, and that this is the month to celebrate both Evonne and my heritage, we wanted to dedicate this entire month to celebrate inspirational Asian women’s stories. We are kicking off the first episode with none other than my (Yan’s) mom. Like many kids I grew up stuck in my own head, caring only for myself, and have never truly asked my mom to tell me her childhood stories. Sure I know of some things she has mentioned here and there, but never the story in its entirety. That’s why I am sooooo honored to finally have my mom on the podcast. It took me months to convince her, but I know it’s hard on her to dredge up all of those traumatizing memories. I am thankful to finally have heard her childhood story, and have a whole new appreciation for the truly inspiration, strong, compassionate, graceful, and generous women she is. If I can be half as strong as her, can make half of the sacrifices she has made for her family, I would be very proud of myself. Thank you mom for coming on! I love you so much!

Sickle cell Anemia is an inherited red blood cell disorder, it is a genetic condition that is inherited when a child receives two sickle cell genes. It’s reported that about 100K people in the United States have sickle cell, with 90% of that population from African descent. However this disease also affects people of Hispanic, South Asian, Southern European, and Middle Eastern ancestry. Unfortunately there is very little information about this painful and life threatening disease that majority affects minorities. We are so honored to have Ylan Hunt join us today to spread awareness for this disease. She has suffered from this her entire life, and we get a first hand account of what is like to live with this condition, how discrimination and stereotyping prevent patients from getting proper treatment, and how a holistic treatment approach might better manage symptoms.

Growing up in India, Mitadru Dey was never interested in spirituality. It was only when he came to the United States, he started noticing how unhappy people seemed in their day to day lives. In his own pursuit of happiness, as well as constantly looking for ways to be more productive in his day to day life, he found the practice of Vedanta. Vedanta is one of the world’s most ancient spiritual philosophies and one of its broadest, based on the Vedas, the sacred scriptures of India. It is the philosophical foundation of Hinduism; but while Hinduism includes aspects of Indian culture, Vedanta is universal in its application and is equally relevant to all countries, all cultures, and all religious backgrounds. Vedanta affirms: The oneness of existence, The divinity of the soul, and The harmony of all religions.

Depression is a lonely illness, even when you are surrounded by ones who love you. Depression is a self imposed isolation. It’s like you are screaming in your mind, but your lips have been sewn together with invisible threads. Depression is living in darkness even when you are surrounded by light. I have dealt with depression most of my life. I have high functioning depression, which means I can still do everything that’s needed with a smile on my face, but inside I am slowly dying. In this episode Evonne and I discuss my life long journey with depression. This was a difficult episode to record, filled with real emotions. I apologize if at times I sound like I’m slurring my words (I was!). It’s hard to open up about depression, but I am doing so for two reasons. One, by speaking up, I am taking my power back. And two, I am sharing my experience in hopes of inspiring others to speak out about their own depression, in doing so, also taking back their power. I am forever grateful for having the support of my husband, who is always gentle yet firm in dealing with my depression, but always do so with loving understanding. As well as for my cohost Evonne, and all my friends who reached out to me, even if I didn't want to share in detail, your support meant the world to me and was an integral part of my recovery journey.

Autism now affects 1 in 54 children, with the rate of autism steadily growing over the last twenty years. It is the fastest growing developmental disorder, yet also the most underfunded. Autism is not a hopeless condition, but early intervention is key. Admittedly Evonne and I do not know much about this condition, but believe 100% there should be more awareness. We are so lucky to have Nilam Patel, M.A., BCBA, and COO at Milestones for Autism, on the podcast today to educate us on Autism detection, treatment, and highlighting the need for more Board Certified Behavior Analyst in the field.

There has been a surge in violence against the Asian American community since the beginning of COVID. Recently there has been another spike in violence, specifically targeted towards elderly Asian Americans in New York and San Francisco Chinatowns. As members of the Asian American community this topic hits close to hearts for both Evonne and I. In today’s episode we discuss our feelings toward the current violence and hate against Asian Americans. This is a very real conversation as you can see how this has affected both of our mindsets. Evonne is on a path of hope and action, while I have been plagued by depression and is in a place of fear and anger. While I don’t enjoy being angry or sharing my anger publicly, we both felt it was important to show both sides of the coin. But don’t worry, I am working hard on myself and my attitude. I will be back to my old action-minded-self again once I get myself out of this f***ing depression.

Jonathan is the co-founder of refound, a management and leadership coaching organization dedicated to helping managers and employees enact change from the inside and out and former CEO of EMyth (the company that brought us the wonderful books The EMyth and The EMyth Revisited).    Honestly, if you have not heard of e-myth, where have you been? It's getting up there as one of those timeless classics in terms of business books.   Well, since Jonathan's time there, he has grown into a successful entrepreneur in his own right and an author now.   He came on the show today and shares with us his insights on how the e-myth framework still applies in today's business markets. Jonathan talks to us about collaboration and finding the right business partners in business.  At first glance, it seems like we are pitting employees against entrepreneurs, but I promise, its' actually about culture and teamwork.   We do a deep dive on "culture" and what this means for us as entrepreneurs and solo-preneurs and how we can look to attract the right partners and superstar teammates.   I get it. You are thinking culture?? Seriously Jay… It lacks the sexiness of seven-figure xyz or marketing strategy hack over here, but culture, specifically team culture and building teams is a topic I have grown to be fascinated by.   As I have matured even with doing the show, and in my business, building a team has never been more crucial and I get kinda schooled in this episode, which is part of the reason why I love these conversations.   This episode is all about teamwork, delegation, and creating the right partnerships.   We also mention his NEW and upcoming book, "Good Authority - How to become the leader your team is waiting for"   However, if you want to read the first couple chapters of the book, please visit goodauthoritybook.com to download your free chapters.   Show notes and links mentioned in the show can be found on my website www.theinnerchangemaker.com/podcast-shownotes/063   LINKS -- Join the Legacy Driven Entrepreneurs Community (it's FREE): http://www.theinnerchangemaker.com/tribe Are you enjoying the podcast?
