In this episode, Jennie and Dr. Tony discuss:The History of DISCDISC Personalities and combinationsUsing the DISC personality profile in businessHow to quickly discern a person's DISC personality Key Takeaways:There are four personalities, Dominance, Influence, Steadiness, and Conscientiousness-D means Dominance, driver, director - their key desire is results, they want it done and they want it done now. I means Influence, they are more interactive, more socializing and more outgoing - their key desire is visibility, and they have the talent of persuading others. S, meaning Steadiness, are people that are more supportive, relater, amiable people - their key desire is close, personal relationships. They are the “glue” of the team. Conscientious people are thinkers, their key desire is order, accuracy, precision and perfection.People are never just purely one personality, there's at least one more since people are very complex. However, there is one personality that's more dominant than the others. DISC won't only help you and your team know each other's strengths and weaknesses, but it can also be used to communicate and interact with your clients more effectively.To know a person's DISC personality - give people two simple either/or decisions, see if they exhibit a more open or guarded behavior and direct or indirect behavior. "The beauty of DISC is that it… makes us better managers, builds a team cohesion because if I could know who's what style, what the do's and don'ts of communication could be, what their strengths and struggles may be - it makes our interaction so much more productive." — Dr. Tony Alessandra YouTube playlist link mentioned in the episode:https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLTNKuyfaKqLbCwGVqyfFRQghFoRFaQQjr Free Communication Coach link mentioned in episode:https://www.assessments24x7.com/communication-coach To take the DISC with Jennie at a discounted rate go to https://badassdirectsalesmastery.com/product/deeper-than-disc/And use coupon code BDSMDISC to get $50 off full priceConnect with Dr. Tony Alessandra:Twitter: https://twitter.com/TonyAlessandra Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Assessments247 Instagram: https://instagram.com/tonyalessandra/ Website: https://alessandra.com/ YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/user/TonyAlessandra LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tonyalessandra/ Blog: http://www.assessments24x7.com/blogCONNECT WITH JENNIE:Twitter: https://twitter.com/jenniebplFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/badassdirectsalesmastery/app/307339332686535/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/badassdirectsalesmastery/Website: https://badassdirectsalesmastery.com/ Show: https://badassdirectsalesmastery.com/blog/Email: jennie@badassdirectsalesmastery.com Show notes by Podcastologist: Justine TallaAudio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.

In this episode Thom Singer sits down with Jim Cathcart to talk about his life long career as a speaker. Jim started out seeking his path, but took him several jobs before finding his passion to educate others. Jim is the first guest ever on "Cool Things Entrepreneurs Do" to admit to having once been a door to door donut salesperson (Ha ha). This is also the only episode where the guest took out his guitar and played a song in the middle of the interview. Yes, Thom is a little star-struck, as while they are now friends, Jim Cathcart is one of the people who many years ago (before they met) inspired Thom to look at professional speaking as a career. With over 35 years of professional speaking around the world, Jim Cathcart is one of the best known and most award-winning motivational speakers in the business. He has delivered more than 2,700 presentations to audiences in every state of the US, most provinces of Canada and countries from Scotland to Singapore. Some of his most recent international engagements were for thousands of business leaders in Bogota', Colombia; Costa Rica; Panama; Warsaw, Poland; Santiago, Chile and Macau, China! A business strategist, pyschological researcher and philosopher at heart, Jim is also a down to earth regular guy. He has worked in warehouses, driven trucks, sold donuts door to door, been a bank teller, plays guitar in night clubs and pubs, and has toured much of the world on a motorcycle. After hearing Earl Nightingale on the radio one day in 1972, Jim was inspired to change his life. While working as a government clerk in the Housing Authority he determined to learn psychology and master the process of self-improvement. Through years of fanatical dedication to this quest he learned new skills, became a certified trainer for a variety of programs, read stacks of books, attended countless seminars and volunteered thousands of hours to civic organizations. In this process he moved from clerk, to manager, to sales person, to leader, to trainer, to author and professional speaker. Today he is listed in the professional Speaker Hall of Fame, is a recipient of the prestigious Golden Gavel Award (along with Earl Nightingale, Art Linkletter, Zig Ziglar and many others), has been the president of the National Speakers Association and received the Cavett Award for a lifetime of service. He has authored 16 books and scores of recorded programs. In 2007 he was listed as one of The Top 100 Minds on Personal Development by Leadership Excellence magazine. The San Diego chapter of the National Speakers Association renamed their member of the year award "The Jim Cathcart Service Award" and the Greater Los Angeles chapter gave Jim the Lifetime Achievement Award in 2003. In 2008 he was inducted as one of the "Legends of the Speaking Profession." And in 2010, 2011 & 2012 he was selected as one of the Top 5 Sales & Customer Service Speakers by Speaking.com in an online survey of over 13,000 people. https://thomsinger.com/jim-cathcart

Greetings, SuperFriends! Today we are joined by a personal friend of mine that I have met through Genius Network, the MasterMind that I recently joined and raved about. His name is Joel Weldon. Joel Weldon is a former construction worker, who turned down a 4-year college scholarship because he thought he wasn't smart enough. Nevertheless, he went on to become living proof of the power of one idea. And that one idea will transform your life. For over 40 years, Joel has been one of the most highly respected and sought-after keynote speakers and sales trainers in North America. He has been an idea consultant and executive speech coach for some of the world's leading business. Companies that hired him 4 decades ago are still hiring him today! Why? Because he gets results. Joel, by the way, is the only speaker to have earned all 4 of the highest honors in the speaking profession. Those are The Golden Gavel, “for his profound impact on corporate America,” the coveted Communication & Leadership Award, the induction into the Speakers Hall of Fame, and in 2006 he was named the Legend of the Speaking Profession. As I said Joel is an incredible guy, and at 76 years old you are going to see just how much energy and vitality he has about speaking and about everything else. About living life to its fullest. I really enjoyed the talk because we discussed what I believe is another exponential skill. We've talked about exponential skills as memory and writing before, but Joel firmly believes with every fiber of his being that public speaking is another extension of that exponential skill set. I totally agree, as my career is certainly proof of that. So, we talk about that, and we also talk about how everyone and anyone can and should become a better speaker. We actually covered some things that even I, someone who has been a public speaker for over half a decade, didn't know. In the episode, Joel gives me some incredible feedback that I'm sure you folks are going to benefit from as well. It's a great episode, and I think you folks are really going to enjoy it! -Jonathan Levi
