A central discussion in the podcast focused on the applicability of the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS) for small Managed Service Providers (MSPs). Divergent perspectives were presented regarding whether the EOS framework is suitable for MSPs with very few staff. The conversation highlighted that while EOS provides accountability, transparency, and structured communication, some very small organizations (e.g., four employees or fewer) may find the framework's meeting cadence and process requirements disproportionate to their operational needs. It was noted that EOS promises value in promoting ownership and alignment but that this benefit is more likely realized when an organization reaches a scale where individual ad hoc communications become inefficient. Supporting these observations, it was emphasized that EOS, as detailed in resources such as Gino Wickman's book and related summaries, is designed with flexibility to span small, medium, and large teams. Examples were offered indicating that even companies with four employees have derived benefits through formalizing updates and consolidating communication, provided their baseline culture supports collective knowledge sharing. However, one position outlined that simply reading EOS materials may be sufficient for the smallest organizations to improve focus without fully implementing the structure, especially when daily meetings or formal processes are not otherwise necessary. The episode additionally examined risk management and operational best practices surrounding MSP business growth and eventual sale. The dialogue discouraged running a business constantly as if preparing for immediate sale, citing the need for risk-taking during growth phases. Factors such as maintaining diverse client portfolios, implementing clear master service agreements (MSAs), reducing owner dependency, and minimizing client concentration risk were underscored as practices that support both ongoing scalability and future valuation. A case was discussed in which valuation was negatively impacted by an overreliance on non-contracted, concentrated clients and a lack of W2 employees, illustrating the risk implications of operational decisions. For MSPs and IT service leaders, the discussion underscored the importance of regularly reviewing operational frameworks and business hygiene regardless of size. The tradeoffs between structure and agility require clear-eyed evaluation, particularly in managing risk, scaling sustainably, and ensuring future options for valuation or exit. While formal systems like EOS can strengthen accountability and communication, overengineering processes in very small teams may reduce efficiency. Careful attention to client diversification and contractual commitments is essential for risk reduction and maximizing enterprise value.   Title:    Is EOS good for a small MSP?What are we talking about today: MSP Question of the week: EOS framework in your business – is this good for MSPs?

If you plan to go skiing, you wear ski boots. If you're heading to the beach, you wear sandals. For a quick jog around the block, you wear running shoes.You select your shoes based on the type of activity. Similarly, when training, correcting, or playing with your son, it's vital to select the appropriate tone for the task at hand. It's also crucial that you understand your son's personality so that you can most effectively connect with him. At times, you may need to choose a serious tone. Other times, a light-hearted attitude is most appropriate. There's no “one-size-fits-all” type of parenting. Understanding your son takes effort. But the more time and attention you devote to him, the more prepared he'll be for life.For more encouragement and parenting advice, visit Trail Life USA or RaisingGodlyBoys.com.

Business Succession Planning Starts on Day One — Not the Day You Want to Leave Business succession planning is not an exit conversation — it is a starting conversation. In Season 2, Episode 7, host Mark sits down with Dave Bulloch, a fractional executive with decades of experience leading organizations across multiple industries. Dave’s message is clear: the entrepreneurs who build the most valuable, resilient businesses are the ones who begin with the end in mind from the very first day. The 3 Mistakes That Slow Business Growth Dave walks through the critical missteps that quietly break growing businesses. First, entrepreneurs fail to define where they are taking their business — whether to a sale, a family handoff, or a professionally managed operation — and that lack of clarity costs them options later. Second, they hire people like themselves rather than building complementary teams, perpetuating the very weaknesses that limit growth. Third — and the one that stings most — they hand out titles too freely, trapping loyal employees in roles they are not qualified to hold and blocking the business from bringing in the leadership it actually needs. The Right Fit for the Right Time Dave’s core philosophy: you do not need someone to take you from A to Z. You need the right person to take you from A to B. Business succession planning is not one decision — it is a series of intentional choices about people, roles, and timing, made with discipline and honesty at every stage of the business life cycle. Show Notes: What You’ll Learn Why business succession planning must start on day one The three exit options every entrepreneur should know about How to build a team that complements your weaknesses, not mirrors your strengths The red flag vs. yellow flag framework for vetting partners and hires Why titles are not free — and how inflation traps employees and businesses How to motivate people without promoting them beyond their capabilities Why you don’t need someone to take you from A to Z — just A to B The importance of having honest, upfront conversations with your team Key Moments 00:05:11 — Dave introduces himself and his fractional leadership work 00:09:55 — Begin with the end in mind: succession planning from day one 00:13:19 — How to hire for the gaps you have, not the strengths you know 00:19:29 — Red flags vs. yellow flags: data-driven vs. gut-driven decisions 00:28:06 — The value of psychometric assessments in hiring 00:34:43 — Title inflation: why titles are not free 00:39:27 — The “working lead” model as an alternative to premature promotion 00:44:16 — Closing thoughts and what’s coming in the series 3 Key Takeaways (from the Host) Begin with the end in mind — succession and exit planning is not optional, it is foundational Find the right fit for the right time — it is okay to hire for a stage, not forever Titles are not free — handing them out carelessly hurts your business and your people About Dave Bulloch Dave Bulloch is a seasoned executive and fractional leader with decades of experience in corporate finance, operations, and CEO-level leadership across multiple industries and business sizes. He specializes in helping growing businesses navigate succession planning, operational efficiency, and building the right leadership teams at the right time.

Could learning from home through a public school work for your child? Pennsylvania cyber charter schools offer tuition-free online learning with certified teachers and flexible schedules, but success often depends on strong parental support, motivation, and reliable technology. For some families, it's a game changer—for others, the challenges may outweigh the flexibility.

In this episode, Sarah and Cesar Roman sit down with Janet Gunn, a dynamic community leader and MSO ambassador from Greensburg, Indiana, to spotlight the real-world impacts of universal school choice. Together, they explore how policies enabling educational options are transforming families' lives, with a special focus on the success of Good Shepherd Christian Academy. The conversation dives into the logistics of community organizing, what motivates parents to seek alternative school options, and the power of grassroots advocacy in driving state-level education reform. Highlights How School Choice Opens Doors: Janet Gunn describes how universal school choice gives rural families access to private, faith-based education that once felt unattainable due to financial barriers. Grassroots Organizing in Action: Insights into the “rock the block” event, parades, and outreach at Good Shepherd Christian Academy, including how these efforts boosted enrollment and awareness in the Greensburg area. Community and Belonging: The episode unpacks the profound impact that volunteers, such as Janet Gunn, have in shaping tight-knit school environments—kids affectionately call her “Grammy,” underscoring deep relationship-building Advocacy as a Game-Changer: Janet Gunn discusses how everyday parents and community members, not just policy experts, are instrumental in passing monumental legislation—and why your voice matters. The Role of Faith and Community: The conversation centers on the value of Christian education, prayerful support systems, and community care at Good Shepherd. Practical Steps for Families: Advice for parents looking for a new educational fit: visit schools, take tours, talk to staff, and trust your instincts to find the best environment for your child. Takeaways School choice empowers families of all income levels to access private education—especially crucial in rural or lower-income areas. Personal relationships and grassroots organizing drive enrollment and success, from fun events to one-on-one encouragement and outreach. Advocacy at the local level truly makes statewide change possible; every voice has the potential to impact legislation and improve options for students. Faith-based schools provide more than academics; they nurture community, care, and values, creating spaces where students and families thrive. Finding the right educational fit is a journey; touring schools and meeting teachers is key to making informed, confident decisions.

Dr. Joel Berg is joined once again by Dr. Scott Schwartz, this time to tackle how candidates can best prepare for the Residency application process. Dr. Schwartz emphasizes the importance of considering the “obvious questions,” like which type of program is the best fit for your future professional aspirations and learning style. He shares ways that candidates can put their best foot forward, including a letter of recommendation from a mentor in the specialty or a unique personal experience statement that demonstrates who you are as a professional and team member – even if it's outside the sphere of dentistry. Success is often found in the commonly overlooked details. Guest Bio: Scott B. Schwartz, DDS, MPH, is an Associate Professor at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center in the Division of Pediatric Dentistry and Orthodontics, where he also serves as Director of the Advanced Education in Pediatric Dentistry training program. After graduating from the University of Illinois – Chicago College of Dentistry, he completed a General Practice Residency at The Ohio State University. Continuing his journey to the Southeast, he obtained a certificate in pediatric dentistry and a Master of Public Health in Health Policy and Management at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.

Expats from the US can have a harder time than most if they want to move to Ireland. With his calm approach and a propensity to plan ahead, it's easy to think Tom Lennon had it all figured out!In this episode, I'm joined by Tom Lennon, one of our clients who recently made the move from North Carolina to Limerick with his wife, Mary Lane. What started as a family connection to Ireland turned into a very real pathway through the Foreign Birth Registration process and, ultimately, a full relocation. Tom shares how that journey unfolded, from gathering documentation to that moment where it all starts to feel very real.The key thing to note here is that this wasn't a rushed decision. We talk through the practical steps they took to test the move before committing: short stays, different locations, and giving themselves permission to change their minds along the way.Tom also shares how they approached choosing where to live, what surprised them about Ireland today, and why Limerick ended up being the right fit for them, even though it's not the most obvious choice for expats.This is one of those areas where the emotional and practical sides of a move really overlap. Tom gives an honest account of what settling in actually looks like. If you're thinking about making a similar move, there's a lot here that will help you think it through and plan ahead for what's important.Main Topics Discussed in this Episode:The Decision to Move to Ireland: Tom shares how a long-standing connection to Ireland, combined with a push during COVID, turned a “what if” into a real relocation plan.Navigating the Foreign Birth Registration Process: A practical look at how Tom secured Irish citizenship through ancestry, including the timeline, documentation, and what made the process feel achievable.Planning the Move with Flexibility in Mind: This comes up a lot with clients - Tom explains their step-by-step approach, using trial stays and keeping an “exit strategy” to reduce risk and pressure.Choosing Where to Live in Ireland: Tom walks through how they tested different locations across Ireland and why Limerick ultimately stood out as the right fit for their lifestyle.Adjusting to Life in Ireland as an Expat Retiree: An honest reflection on settling in, from housing challenges to cultural expectations, and what it really feels like to start building a life in a new country.Resources Tom Recommends for Expats:Citizens Information service: https://www.citizensinformation.ie/en/Expat Taxes: https://expattaxes.ie/Crosscare Irish Diaspora Support Project: https://diasporasupport.ie/*****Use the link below and quote "Expat Taxes" when registering with Currencies Direct to receive a €50 One4All or Amazon voucher when you transfer €5000 or more in your first six months with Currencies Direct.*Click here for a special offer from our sponsor, Currencies Direct******If you loved this episode or have a similar story, we'd love to hear from you!

Jannik Hansen joins Jamie Dodd and Thomas Drance to discuss a difficult stretch for the Vancouver Canucks, highlighting how poor team culture and uncertainty around the roster can make a long season feel even tougher. He questions whether Adam Foote is the right coach moving forward, emphasizing that player development — not results — should be the key metric in a rebuild. Kevin Woodley also weighs in on the team's goaltending situation, noting the challenges facing Kevin Lankinen and Nikita Tolopilo as the organization adjusts to a midseason shift toward rebuilding.

Have you ever had a prospect who looked perfect on paper? They had the budget, the need, and the right timing, but something in the conversation left you feeling completely out of alignment. In this episode, Nikki Rausch tackles a common but tricky sales dilemma: how to handle a potential client who clashes with your core values. While it is tempting to say yes to every "qualified" lead for the sake of revenue, ignoring red flags can lead to energy draining relationships that disrupt your business and compromise your integrity. Discomfort vs. Misalignment Nikki emphasizes that there is a significant difference between a moment of discomfort and a genuine values clash. Discomfort: This often stems from a lack of communication training or a misunderstanding of your process. These situations can usually be resolved with a little education and grace. Misalignment: This occurs when trust, respect, or integrity is compromised. If a prospect expects manipulation, dismisses your expertise, or repeatedly respects no boundaries, it is a clear sign to part ways. Mastering the "Bless and Release" The goal when you decline a prospect is "clarity with kindness." You do not need to over explain or make the other person wrong. The more "story" you give, the more negotiable your boundary becomes. Key Scripts for a Graceful Exit: "Based on what you are looking to accomplish, I do not get the sense that I am the right person to support you." "I am very intentional about the strategies I teach, and I do not think my approach is the right match for what you are seeking." "After reflecting on our conversation, I do not believe I am the best fit to support you in the way you need, so I am going to respectfully decline moving forward." The Power of "No" Declining a wrong fit client is not a failure; it is a strategic advantage. Saying "no" protects your energy, your reputation, and your standards. Most importantly, it opens up the space for you to say "yes" to the right opportunities. Nikki shares a powerful story of how declining a misaligned speaking gig led to booking a high paying, long term VIP client within 24 hours. Episode Takeaways: Identify your non-negotiables: What are the hard lines in your business? Define your boundary: Learn to distinguish between being stretched (growth) and being compromised (misalignment). Prepare your language: Have your "bless and release" scripts ready so you can stand in your authority with confidence. Nikki invites you to join the Sales Maven Society.

ITP - 143 Thank you to our listeners. We have been going strong since 2021. This is our longest episode yet. Why? This longer anniversary episode of the International Teacher Podcast was recorded in two parts due to time zone challenges. The first segment features Kent joining Greg and JP, while the second brings in Darian, Hannah, JP, and Greg for a full group discussion.In Part 1, Kent shares his experience transitioning back to the United States after years of international teaching. He talks about the challenges of substitute teaching, lack of stable contracts, and how U.S. schools are handling staffing shortages by increasing class sizes and cutting specialist programs. The conversation highlights growing interest in international teaching among U.S.-based educators, largely driven by dissatisfaction with domestic systems. Kent also reflects on reverse culture shock, loss of community, and the difficulty of rebuilding connections after returning home.In Part 2, the expanded group celebrates five years of the podcast, reflecting on its growth to a global audience across more than 100 countries. Darian discusses life abroad in Saudi Arabia and the importance of balancing family life with personal time, including solo travel experiences. The group shares updates on their careers, future plans, and new podcast ideas, including a potential series focused on retirement after international teaching. Throughout, the tone stays informal and conversational, blending humor with practical insights into international education and lifestyle.-more information-The International Teacher Podcast is a bi-weekly discussion with experts in international education.

In this conversation, Dorothy Wilhelm speaks with Zane Sundberg, a director of nursing at a skilled nursing facility, about the misconceptions surrounding assisted living and nursing homes. They discuss the evolution of care in these facilities, emphasizing the importance of personalized activities and a home-like environment. Zane shares insights on how to choose the right care facility and the significance of breaking down stigmas associated with nursing homes. The conversation highlights the positive changes in elder care and the importance of maintaining independence for residents. Takeaways The stigma surrounding nursing homes is prevalent but changing.

In this first episode of the Lead Generation Series, Gail shares why many Christian businesswomen struggle with lead generation—not because they lack passion or skill, but because they haven't mapped the customer journey from the prospect's perspective.Too often, entrepreneurs focus on what they want to say instead of speaking directly to the real problems their audience is facing.

https://teachhoops.com/ The deterioration of fundamentals in the modern game is a direct result of the "Highlight Culture" that permeates youth and high school basketball. In an era where a player's "value" is often measured by their social media mixtape rather than their defensive win shares, the incentive structure has shifted. Players are spending thousands of hours practicing "deep threes" and "flashy handles" while ignoring the "Zero-Talent" fundamentals like boxing out, proper footwork on a closeout, and the simple chest pass. As a coach, you are fighting a battle against the "Instant Gratification" of the highlight reel. To reverse this trend, you must make fundamentals "cool" again by charting them and rewarding them with playing time, proving that the most fundamental team is almost always the last one standing in March. A major contributor to this decline is the disproportionate Game-to-Practice ratio found in many AAU circuits. When athletes play four games in a weekend but only practice once a week, they never develop the "Muscle Memory" required for elite execution. They are essentially "playing through" their mistakes rather than correcting them. This leads to "Dirty Reps"—poor shooting mechanics or lazy defensive stances that become baked into their game. To combat this, your practice environment must prioritize "High-Volume Rep Density." Instead of generic drills, utilize "Constraint-Based" teaching where players cannot move to the next segment until they demonstrate a perfect jump stop or a "two-handed" rebound. By making the "boring" basics a requirement for entry into the "fun" parts of practice, you raise the floor of your program's potential. Finally, the deterioration of fundamentals is often a failure of "Coach Clarity." If you aren't correcting a "travel" on a pivot in November, you shouldn't be surprised when it costs you a game in February. Fundamentals are "leaky"—if you don't constantly plug the holes, they will drain away. Use film study to show your players the direct link between a fundamental breakdown (like a missed box-out) and the resulting opponent basket. When players see that their "individual sloppiness" has a "team cost," they develop a sense of accountability. By doubling down on the "Basics of the Game" during the mid-season January grind, you aren't being "old school"—re-establishing these habits is a strategic advantage that will allow your team to out-execute more "talented" but less disciplined opponents.

ITP - 140 A Liverpool-born educator who once resisted teaching ends up saying yes to South Korea—and never looks back. Ken Bence traces an 18+ year arc from public-school TEFL to PGCE, then into a fast-growing bilingual school in Shanghai where rapid expansion pulled him into hiring, standards alignment, and early leadership. Seeking the IB bridge, he lands in Kuwait and grows into K–12 instructional coaching with the help of strong mentors, then tackles leadership fairs, multiple offers, and a vice head role that drops him back into China just as COVID reshapes borders and daily life. The journey continues through Shenzhen and Chengdu, a doctorate alongside principal work, and a brief interim senior leadership post in Budapest—plus practical rituals that make each new country feel like home: spices, quality bedding, and a folder of notes that keeps the purpose front and center.(00:00) Introduction to Ken Bence and His Journey(02:35) Cultural Shock and First Impressions in South Korea(06:53) Transitioning to Leadership Roles in Education(12:40) Exploring New Opportunities in Kuwait(17:37) Navigating Job Fairs and Networking in International Teaching(22:48) Navigating Career Pathways in Education(24:31) Midway-Contact Break(27:06) Cultural Shifts: Returning to China During COVID(29:59) Transitioning to Chengdu: New Challenges and Opportunities(32:55) Career Baby Steps: Progressing Through Education Roles(34:19) New Beginnings: Moving to Budapest(36:20) Preparing for Change: Leaving Budapest(40:29) The Emotional Journey of Teaching AbroadThe International Teacher Podcast is a bi-weekly discussion with experts in international education.

Ep 139 - Hosts JP Mint and Greg Lemoine reconnect with longtime international educator and MYP middle school principal Chris Irvin, whose 20+ year journey spans Canada, Venezuela and China. Chris shares how he built a sustainable international teaching career—starting in a small Venezuelan school, transitioning into leadership, and eventually moving into MYP and IB continuum leadership at a large international school in Shenzhen. The conversation dives into international school hiring, what administrators really look for beyond credentials, how schools evaluate “right fit” and the elusive “plus one” candidates bring to a community, and why IB and MYP experience is not always required to get hired. Listeners also hear candid stories about local vs expat contracts, raising Third Culture Kids, language learning abroad, safety and independence for teens overseas, and memorable life moments—from power blackouts and police encounters in Venezuela to building a new life in China.
