So I wanted to build a scalable tool to help prevent that from happening, and help people on a good track rather than clean up the pieces after they are a mess."05:07 "There were absolutely hours, days, and weeks where I was like 'Oh I made a huge mistake,' I had predictable income and no homework. And I can't believe I took that for granted. Because I went from that to always having homework, and always having a to-do list, and all that stuff that comes with startup."09:51 "What we're really focusing on is empathy and strategy. So our assessments are subjective in nature, and they can show up before, during, or after the call. And they're designed for the salesperson to listen to and get the feedback so that they can become better at their job."15:18 "Speech is a behavior, and a lot of people don't think of that. People think behavior is like if you bought a thing or not, or your prior search history, or those kinds of things and everyone says 'the past is a great indicator of the future' which is fairly true. But the present is a really good indicator of the future also."18:24 "Sellers are typically stuck with operating based on their own type, right? You know? How they make decisions and their more likely to win deals with people that are aligned with them. That makes decisions the way that they do, and this gives you the insights of sorta to tweak your approach or meet how the buyer would like to receive the information."Learn more about Scott in the link below: LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/scottsandland/If you enjoy the Sales Transformation Podcast, please subscribe, share, and send us your feedback.

Data Driven Insight into Your Video Interviews. “Look, I just need to hire someone who can do the work so we can get this product done”  Said Peter. A CEO for a newly funded startup. “Besides, there is no way to really know if someone fits into the company until you experience working together”.  Not true at all!  Your interview process, when structured properly, will give you all the evidence to support making the right hire each & every time. Because, as we all know, one bad hire can destroy your company! Today we are talking about the power of digging deep on the “right” questions and utilizing AI to confirm your conclusions.  Our guest today: Scott Sandland, Founder & CEO of cyrano.ai Scott is the former world's youngest hypnotherapist. A few companies (and decades) later he is the CEO of a company focusing on artificial empathy and strategic linguistics.  As a former executive director and CEO of a mental health clinic and longtime technologist, he has experience leading purpose driven organizations. He has been published in numerous peer-reviewed journals, Psychology Today, Forbes, and Entrepreneur Magazine. Today we discuss: Getting to the truth about the person in a video interview How to leverage AI to confirm your hiring decisions  Companies today have an interview process that is no better than a coin toss.  No process Shallow (how can you help me) Or rely heavily on assessments for decision making Challenge today? Understanding the mental state of the person you are interviewing How they are thinking allows you to understand a persons mindset now Analyzing the what and how things are said Keeping track of people Understanding how people will fit Correctly auditing the client pool at scale People are dishonest during interviews Creating a right fit with a specific management style Why is this important to the company? A lot of the “right” people get screened out via a resume People who look good on paper/resume that don’t actually fit reality of job/culture How to manage/mentor the person you do hire Right person, wrong team… vision to see who will “blow up the locker room” Making sure you are in a position to get the most out of a new hire What burns them out/demotivates them and how to avoid it Allow you to really utilize all the features that are strengths (create a more well rounded team!) How do we build into your company? Profile yourselves & your team Look at the relationships of what already exists Understand what you really need Make strategic decision for similarity or diversity Profile each person to interview Run youtube interviews /linkedin profiles through their system Get a head start on your hiring process Creating custom interview questions based on insights Measure relationships between interviewer  and interviewee Confirm understanding of what motivates and what burns out Accountability vs recognition environments Gives the tools to accurately set performance metrics  Makes the intangibles, tangible from the beginning.  Hire Confirm fit & hire Rick’s Nuggets Understand yourselves then build your company values around  Do your homework, target & connect Interview for values first Key Takeaways: Soft skills assessment of candidates is more important than resume checklist Consistency and transparency in that assessment is critical, which is why machines should be used instead of a person with moods and distractions TAGS  #AI #data #videointerview #artificialempathy #strategiclinguistics  Links LinkedIn: Scott Sandland   Website: cyrano.ai This show is proudly sponsored by Criteria Corp

With over 20 years experience as a clinical hypnotherapist, Scott is an internationally recognized expert in subliminal motivation strategies and a member of the board of directors and Life Fellow for the International Medical and Dental Hypnotherapy Association. He has been published in numerous peer-reviewed journals, Psychology Today, Forbes, and Entrepreneur Magazine.

This podcast interview focuses on product innovation that has the power to take our ability to effectively communicate to the next level. My guest is Scott Sandland, Co-founder and CEO of Cyrano AIScott is among the most well-known hypnotherapists on earth and an accomplished innovator and entrepreneur. He has been actively involved in the development and customization of multiple software platforms focused on continued education and professional networking for over a decade.Scott has 20 years of experience helping clients by using strategic questions and pattern recognition to understand and influence subconscious decision-making processes. Cyrano is built on the idea that these soft skills are inherently teachable, and that doing so will improve human:computer interaction at scale. Applying that knowledge and experience into a neural network to help more people is his driving passion.This inspired me, and hence I invited Scott to my podcast. We explore what’s broken in way we use technology to communicate – and how that is inhibiting us to get global problems (such as teen suicide) under control or effectively transmit our ideas. We also dig into the art of preparing the market to adopt transformative technology and what the secrets to create a software business people keep talking about.Here are some of his quotes:One of the main driving points in the thesis of our company is, most AI tech is about generating correct responses, not a meaningful communication. A long-standing tenet of mine is the second most valuable thing in the known universe is effective communication. The first is oceans made out of water. We spent a lot of time looking for that. But the second most valuable thing is effectively communicating our ideas. The most human thing there is talking well, and the fact that for maybe the second time in human history, our defining technology, since the printing press, this era is defined by the ability to transmit ideas better than ever before.During this interview, you will learn four things:Too often we focus the software we build on improving rather than prevention. What if we do the opposite?How to overcome the hurdle of getting people to adopt solutions that deliver results that by far exceed their wildest expectationsHow to build brand trust and create desire in a market where you are unknown and have no credibilityHow creating an emotional, visceral vision for the future will help you overcome the difficult periods you’ll to face on your company’s journey.

Jess Marion joins me today to debunk and explore the idea of Secondary Gain. She shares strategies, techniques, and methods for working interactively with clients who may be resistant to change.

Like all judgment, approval encourages a constant striving. It makes us uncertain of who we are and of our true value. Approval cannot be trusted.

Welcome to Episode 62 of Brain Software with Mike Mandel and Chris Thompson! For this episode of the podcast we’ve taken the hypnotic storm to Las Vegas. That’s right! We recorded this on-scene at the Hypnothoughts Live 2015 conference. For more information on how to ride the hypnotic storm, rather than being swept away by it, check out the Mike Mandel Hypnosis Academy and join the growing cadre of Hypnotic Storm Riders, worldwide! Here are the show notes for this episode: Sorry for the distortion in the first 30 seconds. Chris screwed up with our portable sound recorder (but he admits it, so it’s OK.) Mike and Chris are on scene in Las Vegas with an army of storm riders. Chris has been talking too much so he has a rough voice. Our special guest is Scott Sandland, founder of Hypnothoughts.com, and he tells us how it all got started. But wait! There’s more! We also have special guest hypnosis storm riders who share their main thoughts from the conference. We’ve never had so many live guests in one show! Mike and Chris are newbies at this conference. It was our first year but we’ll be back next year and we sincerely encourage you to come too! It’s an amazing and fun event, and it’s super budget friendly. Hear us talk about William Wood, Michael Watson, Derrick Watkins, James Hazlerig, Dave and Cheryl Elman and Dave Snyder. All of these people were highlighted either by Mike and Chris or by our round-table discussion with students. Hear what Dan has to say about Mike Mandel as a speaker and his opinion on the Mandel Triangle. Hear about how he’s taking hypnosis skills into the courtroom during trials. Ryan talks about how great it was to connect with other hypnotists in Las Vegas. He also shares a cool self hypnosis technique that he picked up at the show. Rick tells us how incredible James Hazlerig’s presentation was on the topic of nested loop metaphors. Mike and Chris explain what these are and why they are useful. Lisa points out how much of an effect we had with our clan of storm riders wearing the same T-shirts. We wore these shirts for far too many days in a row, but whatever. Nadine loved Hypnothoughts Live because of the incredible variety of presentations available. Chris corrects her on a horrendous mistake (You’re welcome, Dave!) Mike was thrilled to find out that a few different instructors are using his explanation of the Elman induction to teach their students.
