Telephone Skills by the Telephone Assassin. On this week's edition of Monday Night Live, Derek Arden hosts Anthony Stears, also known as the "Telephone Assassin," in a compelling interview that sheds light on Stears' innovative approaches to maximising phone usage in call centres telephone skills and professional environments. Anthony Stears, who shares a humble beginning with Derek, including entrepreneurial ventures from a young age, details his evolution from an ambitious car washer to a real estate agent, and finally to a master of telephone sales and professional speaking. With a knack for conversation, Anthony branded himself as the "Telephone Assassin," a title reflecting his prowess in navigating and revolutionizing telephone communications for business success. Throughout the interview, Stears shares anecdotes and insights from his career journey. Initially challenged by his youthful appearance, he learned to establish credibility before face-to-face meetings through strategic pre-meeting phone calls. This approach not only warmed up his clients but also set the stage for more effective in-person interactions. As the conversation progresses, Anthony delves into his strategies for building effective conversational tactics and eliminating ineffective business practices, which he refers to as "Bull." He emphasizes the importance of fostering a belief in one's abilities and services, a philosophy that has guided his professional trajectory. Anthony recounts pivotal moments that shaped his career, like the experience of being underestimated due to his age during a property valuation, which taught him the importance of proving his worth before being seen. This incident led him to leverage the power of telephone conversations to build rapport and set the groundwork for successful business interactions. He also touches on the business lessons learned from running a telemarketing company, where he transitioned from direct sales to offering workshops, thus broadening his impact and income. These workshops were so successful that they prompted him to further engage in professional speaking, eventually leading him to become an influential figure in the sales and speaking circuits. Stears candidly discusses the challenges and misconceptions about phone-based communication, noting that despite technological advances, the fundamental principles of effective salesmanship and customer service remain rooted in personal, direct interactions. In closing, Anthony highlights the ongoing relevance of telephone skills in the digital age, where so many are hesitant to engage in direct dialogue, stressing that mastering these skills can significantly enhance business outcomes. This episode of Monday Night Live not only explores Anthony Stears' unique approach to sales and professional speaking but also serves as an inspirational guide for leveraging traditional tools in innovative ways to achieve business success.

Crise économique au Nigeria: l'hôtellerie-restauration frappée à son tour [2/2]

La crise économique affecte tous les secteurs de l'économie au Nigeria, y compris les plus dynamiques, comme celui de l'hôtellerie et de la restauration. Avec l'inflation et le ralentissement des affaires, les gens sortent moins à Lagos, la capitale économique, et les entreprises du secteur souffrent, tout comme leurs salariés. De notre envoyée spéciale à Lagos,En pleine journée, le restaurant Praïa est totalement désert. Extension d'un hôtel de Lagos, la capitale économique, il a été inauguré au mois de février. « Notre clientèle est assez mélangée, car nous proposons différents types de plats, explique Neeraj Vasnani, le jeune patron indien de l'établissement. Nous avons beaucoup d'entreprises, donc une clientèle assez aisée. Mais avec notre service de cuisine chinoise à emporter, nous proposons aussi une option plus abordable. »Mais le ralentissement de l'économie a porté un coup à ses affaires. Tout a commencé avec l'augmentation du prix du diesel, se rappelle-t-il. « Dans un business comme le nôtre, nous devons avoir de l'électricité 24 heures sur 24, et donc utiliser tout le temps nos générateurs, rappelle Neeraj Vasnani. Mais ces derniers mois, le prix du diesel a été multiplié par trois. Nous n'avons pas non plus anticipé l'augmentation de nos coûts opérationnels. Tous nos produits alimentaires sont importés. »Les restaurants, tout comme l'ensemble du secteur privé, sont à la peine au Nigeria et n'ont que très peu de marge de manœuvre pour faire face à la crise. « Globalement, cela coûte de plus en plus cher de faire du business au Nigeria, résume l'analyste Mickaël Famoroti, du cabinet Stears. À cause du taux de change face au dollar, de l'inflation, des taux d'intérêt élevés, etc... Et d'un autre côté, la demande est en train de disparaître complètement, le pouvoir d'achat est en train de sombrer. Donc il y a très peu de marge pour augmenter les prix. Parce que si on fait ça, la demande s'effondre. Donc les marges, le bénéfice, diminuent rapidement. »Salariés en difficultéDans son restaurant haut de gamme, Chez Ona, Chef Obehi peut encore compter sur la diaspora et ses dollars pour absorber le choc. « Au Nigeria, tous les moyens sont bons pour fuir la réalité, car il y a trop de problèmes, plaisante-t-elle. Pour être honnête, ma clientèle continue de venir en dépit de la crise. L'année dernière, c'était plus compliqué. Beaucoup de gens avaient quitté le pays par crainte des violences liées aux élections. »Beaucoup de patrons commencent aussi à s'inquiéter pour leurs salariés. Chez Ona, ils bénéficient d'un repas gratuit par jour, mais cela ne suffit pas forcément. « Ils nous demandent beaucoup plus souvent des avances, reconnaît Chef Obehi. Le coût de la vie a tellement augmenté. Au début de l'année, nous leur donnons une augmentation indexée sur l'inflation, mais ça va tellement vite que ce n'est plus du tout au niveau, car tout est vraiment trop cher ! Et si les employés vont mal, ça peut vraiment avoir des conséquences sur l'expérience de nos clients. »Plusieurs personnes sont mortes dernièrement au Nigeria dans des bousculades survenues lors de distributions alimentaires organisées par les autorités.

Rozmohl se nám tady takový nešvar, že sa vo verejnom diskurze začalo často skloňovať slovíčko „ideológia“.

V akom zmysle používam pojem „ideológia“, ak by som napríklad tvrdil, že ľudia, ktorým pripisujem život podľa istej ideológie sú síce dobrí, ale oná ideológia je neprijateľná?

This book examines the political thought of a group of writers and artists in mid-20th-century Britain, centred around Dylan Thomas, George Orwell, and J.B. Priestley. Their ideas, it argues, offer a vision for how to overcome the polarisation and alienation of our politics today.The institution is the UCL Policy Lab, which was launched earlier this week, and which seeks to bring together UCL's top political scientists and economists with policymakers and others in order, we hope, to foster positive change.Professor Marc Stears, the author of Out of the Ordinary and the inaugural Director of the UCL Policy Lab, joins Uncovering Politics this week.Mentioned this week:M.

What is the cleverest thing hippos can do? This week we're answering seven quirky questions about animals! Why do elephants like peanuts? Why do cows put their tongues up their noses? Has anyone ever ridden a tiger? How do woodpeckers cling to trees? Why is some bird poop black and some is white? Why do people make animals like sharks and bears sound way scarier than they are? Answers from Keenan Stears of the University of California, Santa Barbara, Christine Scales of Billings Farm & Museum; shark researcher Kady Lyons and the Bird Diva Bridget Butler. Download our learning guides: PDF | Google Slide | Transcript Related Episodes: Why Do Elephants Have Trunks? Why Do Things Seem Scary In the Dark? Resources: Hippopotamus facts, Cornell Lab of Ornithology, Online Birding With Bird Diva  What is the cleverest thing a hippo can do? – Elliot, 8, England We turned to Keenan Stears of the University of California, Santa Barbara for some help with this tricky query. “The first thing that comes to mind that highlights the intelligence of hippos,” he told us, “is the ability to identify hippo friends from hippo enemies by the smell of their dung.” Dung is another word for poop. “Dominant male hippos use dung middens to mark their territories. A dung midden is a place where an animal repeatedly goes to drop their dung. The dung middens act as a way that hippos can keep track of the other hippos in the area. So when moving through the environment, hippos can sniff out areas where their hippo friends live, versus areas where their hippo enemies live and they can do all of this just by smelling the dung in middens.” Bet you didn't think the cleverest thing hippos can do would involve poop! And just in case it wasn't totally clear, a midden is basically a waste pile. So a dung midden is kind of like a toilet or an outhouse. It's where the hippos go repeatedly to poop. But, as Stears told us, it also serves another purpose. While humans can't tell their poop from someone else's, other animals can sniff out individuals this way, and use dung or urine—pee—to mark their territories. Hippos aren't the only animals to use dung middens this way, by the way. Rhinoceroses do this too! Other animals, like dogs, cats, rabbits and monkeys also sniff feces and urine as a way to learn about their fellow species, but they don't always leave their “messages” in the same place.

 Chad Stears came on to the podcast to share his wonderful journey into the umpiring world. He started umpiring games for his dad’s softball team. With his dad’s encouragement, hand me down equipment, the interest grew into a passion from a young age. Chad has many years working in the SEC, many post-season selections with the NCAA, and has also achieved the ultimate goal by calling for the WCWS. His accomplishments don't even come close to how he carries himself on and off the field. As he describes in this episode, we have friends all over because of umpiring. Many people don’t get to see the many sides of emotions we carry on and off the field. Chad shared some stories that have helped him achieve his goals and overcome some adversity. With his continued support from his peers and mentors, he has taken a role with USSSA in his home state of Arkansas.

Listen to this great conversation with Ben about church culture. You'll hear some great nuggets like "surrender is not a consumer message," even if that preaches well, it's hard to live out. One of Ben's key points includes leaving behind the spent ashes, but never leave the fire. Look for the coals, the embers, and carry them forward.
