" The learning space is best served when while there is a problem, it's not a giant problem. There may be a flame, but the whole house isn't on fire yet. And that is the ideal learning space because once the house is on fire, your brain is not set up to learn, and it is a capacity issue. "Karen & Paul discuss the factors that motivate individuals in groups to engage in learning interpersonal and collaboration skills. They explore the importance of having relevant problems to apply new skills to and the balance between being motivated by issues and not being overwhelmed by crises.

During Ep. 29 of the Ask the Law Firm Seller Show, Jeremy E. Poock, Esq. shares the following Poock's Post: How the One-Two Punch of AI + Google Continues to Decrease the Relevancy of Yester-Year's Rainmaker Attorneys Poock begins by reminiscing about the Pre-Google “Age of the Rainmaker Attorneys” who built their Books of Business in-person and via Word of Mouth, including: (i) Handing out 1k+ business cards per year; (ii) Leading in-person speaking engagements as often as possible (CLEs, Chambers of Commerce, etc.); (iii) Attending and sponsoring charity events, including placing full page ads in event tribute books; (iv) Investing in print ads in newspapers, journals, legal directories, White Pages, Yellow Pages, etc.; and (v) “Working the room” at networking events. Post-2020, though, Business Development for lawyers and law firms has pivoted digitally, including the following “One-Two Punch” of AI, plus Google: Potential clients consult with AI (egs. ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude, and more) to inquire about lawyers and law firms capable of addressing their particular issues, followed by researching those firms via Google . . . doing so while by-passing yester-year's Rainmaker Attorneys. The rise of Digital Rainmaking in the mid-2020s, as part of today's 3.0 Digital Era for the legal industry, includes the following results for those Senior Attorney-led firms that do not adopt Multi-Channel Digital Marketing to supplement their Word of Mouth business development efforts: The decreasing relevancy of yester-year's Rainmaker Attorneys in favor of the rise of Digital Rainmakers; A decrease in revenues for Senior Attorney-led firms that do not adopt Multi-Channel Digital Marketing to supplement old school Word of Mouth rainmaking; and A decrease in law firm value among Senior Attorney-led firms that do not replenish their Books of Business during today's 3.0 Digital Era as well as during the pre-Google Word of Mouth Era. Poock also points out the following: Despite the ongoing disruption to business development that today's 3.0 Digital Era presents, law firm purchasers want and need the following 3 resources that Senior Attorney-led firms offer: A selling law firm's Book of Business; Talented lawyers and support staff; and Subject matter knowledge to convert to digital content to attract the attention of potential clients who search online for lawyers and law firms to retain. That stated, Poock raises the following forecast for Senior Attorneys to consider: Once “Digital Rainmaker” law firms can generate new clients for less cost than purchasing a Senior Attorney-led firm's Book of Business, the market value for those Books of Business will decrease. As Poock states, “We strongly believe that Law Firm Sales 1.0 will come to an end at some point, but that's not going to be in the 2020s . . . I think it's going to be in the in the 2030s, because when law firms can generate new clients for less money than the fee sharing [per] Law Firm Sales 1.0, [they will not] . . . need Senior Attorney-led firms' Books of Business as much as they do now.” And, as Poock states in conclusion: “Hence why we strongly recommend for those law firms that are committed to Word of Mouth, as compared to today's, Digital Era for generating clients digitally, that now is the right time to consider selling your law firm.”
We last sat down with Bruce Buchanan in late 2019 — at the time, Rokt was in hyper-growth, having just raced through the US$100 million revenue mark. The business was laser-focused on the transaction moment — unlocking its potential for merchants, advertisers, and consumers alike.In the six years since, Rokt's revenue has grown more than eightfold. The company is now strongly profitable and has built on its original insight - the power of relevancy.Bruce and his team have transitioned the business to a suite of AL powered products and with each new capability deepened e-commerce partner stickiness, expanded both sides of the network, and delivered greater returns for merchants and advertisers.This episode dives into Rokt's next chapter of growth, and the role it is playing as a neutral, trusted intermediary for first-party data, how the business is positioned to become an intelligence layer for ecommerce in a world mthat is seeing real time technological change with the rise and capability of AI agents. Just as importantly, we'll discuss what the last six years have revealed about Rokt's culture, and how Bruce has leaned into the hard decisions needed to scale the business for the long term.Without doubt, this period has cemented Bruce Buchanan as one of Australia's greatentrepreneurs and leaders. And yet, the story is still being written.

Jeffrey Wilcox (President) and Joan Brown (COO) of the Interim Executives Academy unpack the harsh realities of nonprofit leadership turnover—and the game-changing role of interim executives.Jeffrey starts this lively session with. . . “Interim leaders aren't temps—they're bees, cross-pollinating wisdom to prepare organizations for their next leader.” Joan Brown backs it up, revealing why first-time nonprofit CEOs crash and burn—often due to unclear job expectations, chaotic HR structures, and boards that operate like secret societies instead of partners.This bouyant conversation with host Julia Patrick, gets real fast:HR disasters are the #1 reason leaders get fired—think vague job roles, favoritism, and financial denial.Boards scare new execs by locking them out of meetings instead of mentoring them.Interims aren't just placeholders—they're strategic fixers who spend 9–12 months prepping orgs for long-term success.Looking ahead, Jeffrey and Joan warn nonprofits: “If you're only relevant to yourself, you're already dying.” The future demands sustainable leadership, emotional intelligence, and ditching outdated board modelsthat hold orgs back. 00:00:00 Intro: Why Leadership Turnover is Crisis 00:02:33 Why First-Time Nonprofit CEOs Fail 00:06:00 HR Disasters Killing Organizations 00:10:45 How Interims Fix Toxic Cultures 00:15:38 Interim Leaders: Bees, Not Band-Aids 00:19:45 Future of Nonprofit Leadership 00:22:55 Relevancy or Bust for Nonprofits 00:27:09 Free Training Announcement #TheNonprofitShowFind us Live daily on YouTube!Find us Live daily on LinkedIn!Find us Live daily on X: @Nonprofit_ShowOur national co-hosts and amazing guests discuss management, money and missions of nonprofits! 12:30pm ET 11:30am CT 10:30am MT 9:30am PTSend us your ideas for Show Guests or Topics: HelpDesk@AmericanNonprofitAcademy.comVisit us on the web:The Nonprofit Show
THE Leadership Japan Series by Dale Carnegie Training Tokyo, Japan
To SER With Love In the movie “To Sir, With Love”, Sidney Poitier was brilliant in the role of a black teacher in a tough London East End high school. He was trying to make a difference for these young outcasts to better prepare them for the life they would face after graduating from school. A very uplifting story about what is possible when we encourage others to be their best. So what has this got to do with business, you may be asking? As leaders, we have four jobs. Run the machinery of the operation so everything works well, provide the vision on where we are going, explain the WHY and build our people. This “build our people” part is a communications exercise which most leaders fail to do well enough, myself included. Many of us grew up in business in a era when your boss just expected you to get on with your job. No encouragement was needed, because you were required to do a full day's work for a full day's pay. Praise didn't exist and you found your own sources of encouragement. Things are different today, but are we skilled enough in the best practice techniques of giving honest praise and encouragement? This is where the acronym SER comes in. “S” is strength, “E” is for evidence and “R” for relevance. It is a useful formula to remember when you want recognize the good work done by one of your team. “Strengths” are interesting because most bosses are laser beam focused on identifying weaknesses and fixing them. They are “error finders” as opposed to “good work finders”, when looking at how people carry out their tasks. They are searching for defects, time delays, poor quality, unsatisfactory performance, cost overruns and basic idiocy. If we switch our mindset and look for strengths, then we completely change how we see our people. That automatically changes how we communicate with them. Now words strung together like “good job” are a complete waste of time. Please - don't even bother saying them. The person on the receiving end is fully aware they are doing many things in their work, but still have no clear idea which particular bit they are doing well. We need to be highly specific about which aspect of their work we are recognizing. This is how our words have impact. “Evidence” is critical to demonstrate that the boss has been paying attention and has noticed good work is being performed. By referring to specific actions, decisions, outputs etc., the staff member knows the words coming out of their boss's mouth are real and not flattery, propaganda or an attempt to snow them into believing the boss is nicer than they really are. Every piece of work is made up of separate tasks, so the idea is to select a particular task that was done well and single it out for praise. You could say, “Greg, good work on the report”. Or you could say, “Greg, thank you for your work on the proposal for the client. That was one of the best I have seen. You assembled the evidence very comprehensively and you argued the case very convincingly. I am sure the client was impressed by the professional level of the work they received from you”. It is obvious which one we want to receive. So, if it so obvious, why aren't we communicating our feedback like this? “Relevancy” is a key step that 99% of bosses who do manage to offer some praise and recognition completely fail to mention. We have to recognize the work, offer our evidence to make the praise credible and then take it one important step further. We need to link the good work being done to the bigger picture. That can be for the firm's future, but it is much more powerful if it is linked to WIIFM. “What's In It For Me” is a powerful driver of employee self-interest. The secret is to select that piece of excellent work and then link it to how that is going to help that person succeed in their business and career. For example, “ Greg, your ability to source key data and then back it up with clear, concise language is a real skill. That is the type of skill our company values highly. It also means that you can have impact in your current role. This is the calibre of person we want to make a future leader in our organization. I know you are working hard and keep going with what you are doing, because you are differentiating yourself in a powerful and positive way. This will be a big help to you in your career”. If you are hearing that comment, you are going to be fired up to try even harder and push even further. “Greg, good job” pales in comparison doesn't it. Even worse, when nothing has been said at all, because working hard is expected around here, there has clearly been a major lost opportunity to engage your team members. What is required? That most valuable of all resources – “boss time”. We have to make the time to become “good finders” and then take the time to communicate it using the SER formula. If we can do that, then we will make a huge difference to the enthusiasm, loyalty, productivity and happiness of our team members. They will outperform the competition, because a happy motivated team will always beat a disinterested, disengaged competitor's rabble.
