In this engrossing episode of the "Intentional Agribusiness Leader" podcast, host Mark Jewell welcomes Don Sutton from Tiger-Sul Products to delve into the nuances of intentional leadership. The conversation opens doors to understanding the critical role of intention in achieving personal and organizational success within the agricultural business landscape. Don Sutton brings a well-rounded perspective to the table, sharing his strategic approach to managing teams, setting clear objectives, and driving towards stellar outcomes.Don and Mark dissect what it takes to manifest intention through actionable strategies, highlighting the criticality of setting clear goals and crafting a roadmap for success in sales and leadership. The dialogue circles around the importance of fostering a culture of trust, the impact of detailed onboarding processes, and the leverage in empowering sales teams. Each insight is redolent with the potential to transform leadership dynamics within the agribusiness context.Key Takeaways:Being intentional means crafting clear goals and expectations, and ensuring those are brought into action "by design."Establishing trust within the team and with customers is pivotal for business success and fostering a sound company culture.An extensive onboarding process, potentially spanning a year, is vital to setting new team members up for success.Regular virtual meetings and annual in-person gatherings can help build and maintain a strong team dynamic, even with a geographically dispersed sales force.When transitioning into a sales role or entering a new market, embracing change and leveraging past experiences can lead to significant personal and professional growth.Notable Quotes:"To be intentional as a leader to me would be setting clear goals, setting expectations, and then, making sure you're putting those expectations into action." - Don Sutton"We really empower our salespeople...

“Every interpersonal situation has a solution in which everyone wins.” -Del Close “Synergy is better than your way or my way. It's our way.” -Stephen Covey “You're talking about a younger generation, Generation Y, whose interpersonal communication skills are different from Generation X. The younger generation is more comfortable saying something through a digital mechanism than even face to face.” -Erik Qualman “Show respect even to people who don't deserve it; not as a reflection of their character, but as a reflection of yours.” -Dave Willis

Favorite quotes of the episode:  “Systems and processes aren’t sexy, but they are an important and necessary part of your business.” “Systems and SOPs are the infrastructure that give us the freedom to work less.” Start documenting your business processes from the beginning, “It wasn’t until we had a front office employee leave that we realized all of our systems and processes for running our business were in her head.” “Begin with the end in mind.” -Stephen Covey “You can always have a mile-long task list, so I try to keep in mind what are the top three things I need to accomplish for the day.” Episode Overview In this episode, I talk with physical therapist, Dr. Robert Moss. He has 22+ years of experience as a physical therapist with an emphasis on orthopedics. He has taught continuing education courses for physicians, physical therapists, occupational therapists, and athletic trainers across the United States. In 2006, Dr. Moss opened MOSS Rehabilitation Center to help transform the lives of everyday people by quickly getting them out of pain and back to normal after an injury or surgery naturally without pills, injections, or surgery. Over the years, he has developed his business and leadership skills to streamline his processes and improve the experience of his patients. He has a passion for helping other business owners regain the freedom and profitability they desire while increasing customer happiness. TOPICS Now is the time to analyze processes and make your customers (and family) happier. How to put SOPs in place, how often to review them, and how to test them. What mindset shift needs to occur to increase profitability while working less? How COVID-19 has impacted business, created opportunities, and changed customer relations. Thoughts on dealing with a constant cycle of change.  5 Questions Segment Q1. We know that the most successful and happy people have a morning routine, what do you do each morning or evening that sets your day up for success? I have a toddler, so for me, the evening is where the magic happens. I journal and write down what I’m grateful for. I also ask, what did I learn today? If I had today to do over, what would I change, what can I learn from that? I also give myself a problem or a question that I want my subconscious to work on overnight. Q2. What's your definition of Success? For me, it’s to have the freedom of time, money, and energy to be able to do the things I want to do. Q3. What's your definition of Happiness? Being present and being in the moment. Q4. What do you know now that you wish you would have known 10 years ago? Invest in toilet paper—that’s a joke. But seriously, not to sacrifice your family time for work time. Work will always be there. The other thing, don’t wait until you have something painful happen in your business, like I did, to start documenting your systems, start working on those now. Q5. What do you think is the biggest issue facing busy professionals today? That whole notion of a work-life balance, figuring out how to be present in the moment.  David Allen from getting things done says, “it’s the game of work and the business of life.” RESOURCES Connect with Robert Moss at www.springtownphysicaltherapy.com/bts Books The e-Myth, Michael Gerber The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People, Stephen Covey Getting Things Done, David Allen Join our email list and never miss another insight at https://www.pawsconsulting.com/shownotes Learn Strategies for Overcoming Overwhelm at https://www.pawsconsulting.com/overwhelm ‘Strategies for Overcoming Overwhelm’ has been approved for 1 hour of continuing education credit for veterinarians and veterinary nurses/technicians in jurisdictions that recognize RACE approval.

In this episode we talk about Jesus's non violent teachings, our Yes, fear, unconscious cycles, with quotes from:Jesus: “To the person who strikes you on one cheek, offer the other one as well, and from the person who takes your cloak, do not withhold even your tunic. Give to everyone who asks of you, and from the one who takes what is yours do not demand it back."Dag Hammarskjold: “Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: Let all that is in me serve Thus, and thus free me from fear You dare your yes— and experience a meaning. You repeat your yes— and all things acquire meaning. When everything had a meaning, how can you live anything but a Yes?”Stephen Covey: “You have to decide what your highest priorities are and have the courage—pleasantly, smilingly, nonapologetically, to say “no” to other things. And the way you do that is by having a bigger “yes” burning inside. The enemy of the “best” is often the “good.”Lisa Olivera - "we get to contain both grief and the joy, the ugly and the beautiful, the challenge and the ease, the fear and the groundedness, the unknown and the presence, the isolation and the connection, the despair and the hope. All of it is allowed"

What does it take to reboot a company from the ground up? Joining us on this episode is Doug Conant, the Founder of ConantLeadership and Former CEO of the Campbell Soup Company. Today, Doug is sharing about how he turned Campbell around, and how he’s able to create leadership connections in the smallest of moments.  Campbell before and after When Doug entered, Campbell had lost half its market value in one year, they were under investigation by the SEC and the Justice Department, and many people were being let go. Business was not good, morale was not good, and it was a toxic environment.  Doug’s core belief is that leadership is all about the art and science of influencing others in a specific direction. It’s all about the people and nothing to do with him. He could not expect the employees to value their agenda as a company until they tangibly demonstrate to them that they value their agenda as people. The challenge was to step up and start demonstrating that.  They went from having the worst employee engagement in the Fortune 500 to having the best employee engagement — something that had never been done before over that timeframe.  Campbell Success Model You cannot win in the marketplace if you don’t first create a winning workplace. And when you begin to win in the marketplace, you’re going to be able to win with your community. And underneath winning in the workplace, marketplace, and community, you need to be winning with integrity.  Doug quotes Stephen Covey: ‘You cannot talk your way out of things you behaved your way into. You’ve just got to behave your way out.’ And so as a management team, they had to behave their way out with the people that worked there.  Play the long game In any position you go into, you have three years. The first year, it’s the other guy’s fault, and you’re doing the best you can with what you’ve been dealt with. The second year, you’re learning. And by year three, you’re supposed to have it. With every job you go into, take the long view. It’s never going to be a one-year wonder turnaround; it has to be a culture of continuous improvement.   TouchPoints The world is now morphing into a place where you have to be very fluent in very small interactions: touchpoints. For the most part, we all do this by the seat of our pants. But we’re best served if we don’t — and we can learn how to be powerful and effective in these micro-moments.  There is a simple process for getting good at managing the small moments: enter the moment with a “How can I help?” mentality, and exit with a, “How did it go?” mentality. You can process almost anything in one to two minutes, which is important, because you need to be ready to talk when your people are ready to talk. People have to know you’re really listening, that you understand what they’re saying, and that you want to see them make progress.  Head, heart, and hands  Be tough-minded on standards, and tender-hearted with people.  Head: make sure there is a logic to what you do because your people are hungry for consistent thinking. Heart: show up with great authenticity. Hands: develop the practices that allow you to bring your logic and authenticity to life when you show up in these moments.  Resources for Doug Conant Twitter | LinkedIn | Facebook | ConantLeadership | TouchPoints

Tony Gaskins Jr. is a motivational speaker, author, and life coach who has appeared on the Oprah Winfrey show.  Tony built his brand from scratch to where he now has more than 1 million followers on social media. At 22, he became an author. At 23, he became a husband and father. At 25, he started his first company, Soul Writers LLC. At 25, he also got himself on globally televised shows to tell a portion of his story. Tony decided to turn his pain into purpose and live a life of service. Raised in the church and being the son of a pastor, there was something about service that stuck with Tony.   Tony made his fair share of mistakes like most young men from areas like where he grew up. Many of his childhood friends are serving life sentences in prison. Although Tony was introduced to the street life between the ages of 18–23, he finally found his way. At 23, he allowed love to change his life. His wife was unwilling to be with a man who wouldn’t live up to his full potential. That tough love pushed Tony to be more and to do more. By combining all of his passions Tony became an author, life coach, and speaker.  In 2015 Tony began working with an NBA team as the team life coach.   Tony also became the life coach for several college teams. His message comes from his mess. He believes that we all are coaches because we’ve all learned lessons that can help someone else. Operating in his gifts also took him around the world as a highly sought- after speaker. Tony has spoken in two other continents and over 10 different countries and counting. Tony was able to accomplish these feats by the tender age of 31. He doesn’t believe in boxes. “Don’t put me in a box until I’m going in the ground,” he says. He covers a wide range of topics in the areas of life, love, and business. He’s written several books on those subjects with his latest work being The Dream Chaser published by Wiley and available everywhere books are sold.   In today’s episode, we discuss: His appearance on the Oprah Winfrey show How his background helped shape who he is now Writing books to help people Working with and connecting with NBA players    Website: www.tonygaskins.com Twitter: @TonyGaskins Linkedin: www.linkedin.com/in/tonygaskins Facebook: www.facebook.com/tonygaskins Instagram: @TonyGaskins YouTube: www.youtube.com/user/TonyGaskins Tony Gaskins books to check out ...

Here’s some of what you will learn: Your ability to connect and communicate is the key to your success in life and business. How you communicate reveals everything about you. When you communicate properly you build understanding, relationships, and trust. “The single biggest problem in communication is the illusion that it has taken place.” - George Bernard Shaw Only 7% of communication is words. People don’t just hear you, they feel you. “If you just communicate, you can get by. But if you communicate skillfully, you can work miracles.” – Jim Rohn “Seek first to understand before you seek to be understood.” – Stephen Covey You must make a sincere effort to understand. Say what you mean and mean what you say. “Be Impeccable with your Word: Speak with integrity. Say only what you mean. Avoid using the Word to speak against yourself or to gossip about others. Use the power of your Word in the direction of truth and love.” – Don Miguel Ruiz Sometimes good communication is all it takes to fix a relationship is good communication. “Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind.” – Dr. Seuss Book recommendation: “The Four Agreements” by Don Miguel Ruiz Connect with me on Facebook at: Rod Khleif Text ROD to 41411 or visit RodKhleif.com for a FREE copy of my book, “How to Create Lifetime Cash Flow Through Multifamily Properties”.

“When your values are clear, your decisions are easy.” — Brian Buffini Many of us set goals we think will make us happy or successful, but once we achieve them we still feel lacking. In this episode, Brian Buffini explores this issue and explains why it happens: all too often our values and beliefs don’t align with our actions. Using inspirational quotes and stories, you’ll learn how to define your priorities and principles and start a course that supports your values, needs, beliefs and wants. By the end of the episode, you’ll understand what matters the most to you and how to incorporate it into all areas of your life, including your business.   Inspirational quotes from today’s episode: “You go to work on your goals and your goals go to work on you.” — Jim Rohn “When you reach the end of your rope, tie a knot in it and hang on.” — Thomas Jefferson “Never trust a man without scars.” — Unknown “’These are my priorities’ becomes ‘This is what I prioritize.’” — Brian Buffini “The key is not to prioritize what’s on your schedule but to schedule your priorities.” — Stephen Covey “You have to be so committed to your values that other people’s judgment won’t affect them.” — Brian Buffini “When you live by your values, you’re willing to fight the good fight.” — Brian Buffini “When your values are clear, your decisions are easy.” — Brian Buffini “When you know what you want, and you want it bad enough, you’ll find a way to get it.” — Jim Rohn “With the change of seasons in your life, what you want is going to change.” — Brian Buffini “You can have everything in life you want if you will just help enough people get what they want.” — Zig Ziglar “It’s not an issue of wants versus needs. It’s an issue of wants versus priorities.” — Brian Buffini “In matters of style, swim with the current. In matters of principle, stand like a rock.” — Thomas Jefferson “We are what we believe we are.” — C.S. Lewis “You are what you believe yourself to be.” — Paulo Coelho “Give yourself the grace of the season you’re in.” — Brian Buffini “I live the good life, not the perfect life.” — Brian Buffini “By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.” — Benjamin Franklin “The solution for productivity is training, systems and motivation.” — Warren Buffett “It’s your skills that pay the bills.” — Joe Niego “Whatever is written down gets done.” — Brian Buffini   Mentioned in this episode: The 12 Week Year by Brian Moran Kenny Chesney, The Good Stuff   Connect with Brian Buffini http://www.brianbuffini.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/brianbuffini Twitter: https://twitter.com/brianbuffini Buffini Show Insiders: http://www.thebrianbuffinishow.com/insiders Love what you heard?
