Tameka Montgomery, from the Raising Entrepreneurs Podcast, Mark Brazil, from Ikonick, and Jon Gordon, author of “The Power of a Positive Team," share with your host, Travis Chappell, their thoughts on "connecting with legends."   Episode Highlights:    Tameka Montgomery Takema has connected with Barack Obama and Michelle Obama. The Presidential Management Fellow program with the US Department of Justice recruits people out of grad school and law school to fasttrack in the upper levels of government.  How did Tameka go from working for the local Denver Small Business Development Center to working in the Obama Administration?   Mark Brazil Mark has connected and is in business with Gary Vanerchuck. It is all about providing value first in a networking relationship.  You can’t be a fan and a friend.    Jon Gordon Jon does speaking and training for NFL and NBA teams around the topic of leadership. How did Jon get his foot in the door with major sports organizations and work with them? What is the most annoying approach that people have when they meet Jon at an event?    3 Key Points: People do business with people that they like.  The reals know the real ones.   Go in to give with your skillset without an agenda.     Tweetable Quotes: “Business is all about relationships at the end of the day.” - Tameka Montgomery “I’m just giving favors to everybody. I can’t really think of that many people in my head that its like, ‘I owe you one.’” - Mark Brazil “If I had an agenda, I’d pretty much ruin the relationship and ruin future opportunities. So, I was just going there to serve and make a difference and make an impact with that coach and with that team.” - Jon Gordon Resources Mentioned: Visit Travis’ website at Buildyournetwork.co (http://www.buildyournetwork.co/) Learn more about mentorships and masterminds for FREE at freemmcourse.com/enroll (http://www.freemmcourse.com/join) Get your tickets for Travis new live event in Vegas at www.bynlive.com (http://www.bynlive.com/) Tameka Montgomery: Linkedin (https://www.linkedin.com/in/tsmontgomery/) Mark Brazil: Linkedin (https://www.linkedin.com/in/markmastrandrea/) Jon Gordon: Linkedin (https://www.linkedin.com/in/jongordonenergy/) Download the Himalaya App in the Google Play (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ximalaya.ting.himalaya&hl=en_US) Get more free content from Travis at threenetworkingsecrets.com (http://threenetworkingsecrets.com/) For information regarding your data privacy, visit acast.com/privacy (https://www.acast.com/privacy)

Have you ever wished that a public agency official understood the problem you are trying to solve from your perspective as a nonprofit leader? I am sure that many of us in the sector are familiar with that feeling. Tameka Montgomery, appointed by President Obama as Associate Administrator to the Small Business Administration’s Office of Entrepreneurial Development, actually did understand. She came to the position after creating a business incubator in Denver and leading its award- winning Small Business Center. During her tenure, she launched the Main Street Mentor Walk, a 5k that swapped out running for walking and matched new entries into the business sector with experienced business leaders. And she started the first Latino Small Business Summit to provide entrepreneurs with culturally specific resources and guidance. While at the SBA, Tameka elevated training and technical assistance resources for formerly incarcerated people seeking jobs. She partnered with the Kellogg Foundation on a program that helped them, and by extension their families, to gain an economic foothold, and succeed. And she developed a program for “the missing middle”, entrepreneurs whose businesses had the potential to scale up and increase their impact. Now Tameka is building her own entrepreneurial future. She founded Core Strategy Partners, a consultancy that helps companies and nonprofits working at the intersection of business value and social impact. And she hosts a wonderful podcast, Raising Entrepreneurs, that helps parents to foster entrepreneurship in their children. Did I mention that she is also the mother of 3 boys, 9, 11 and 13? You can hear them in a great clip from Raising Entrepreneurs in this episode of Power Station.

Tameka Montgomery tended to the needs of the nation's 28 million small businesses as one of the Small Business Administration's top executives in the Obama administration. Her job, as Obama's hand-picked leader of the Office of Entrepreneurial Development, ended at noon on Inauguration Day 2017. It was a very public -- and classic -- One More Shot story: How would she decide what to do when her job ended, through forces beyond her control? After a sabbatical, she decided to shift her focus from adult entrepreneurs to small ones. Today, she's on a mission to help parents learn how to raise entrepreneurial kids. She talks about how to transition after a high-profile career ends; how to stay open to opportunities; the role of persistence as the "difference-maker" between success and failure; and what even 5-year-olds can do to earn money and become empowered people. This episode is for you if you've ever had a job end; if you're not sure what to do next; if you want to become an entrepreneur yourself or you're already on that path.

Tameka Montgomery is the founder of the podcast, Raising Entrepreneurs: A Parent’s Guide to Fostering an Entrepreneurial Mindset. In 2013, President Obama appointed Tameka to lead the U.S. Small Business Administration’s Office of Entrepreneurial Development, where she was responsible for a budget of more than $160 million to deliver training and technical assistance programming to the nation’s 28 million small businesses. In 2015, Washington Post online named Tameka one of the 19 most influential people in Washington, DC, who can affect your small business. Prior to her presidential appointment, Tameka led the award-winning and nationally-recognized Denver Metro Small Business Development Center. Tameka is a graduate of Spelman College and Columbia University and holds an honorary doctorate in entrepreneurship from Johnson and Wales University. Tameka now calls the DC metro area home, where she lives with her husband, Jonathan, and their three young entrepreneurial sons. The “Fluke” Can you see how small steps and circumstances have pointed you in the right direction to chase your dreams? Tameka wanted to attend a historically black college, but wasn’t sure about Spelman College at first. Through a couple of “fluke” spur-of-the-moment decisions, Spelman was where she ended up, although she originally wanted to pursue a communications major to become an investigative reporter. Since Spelman is a liberal arts college, she settled for an English major and then spent some time in the Peace Corps. TWEET: We wanted to parent our child differently than we were raised---to be financially independent. @IamTameka When you know “this is not for me” Have you been there? After her time in the Peace Corps, Tameka went to graduate school and then ended up in DC working for the Department of Juvenile Justice, developing policies and overseeing delinquency prevention. It didn’t take long for her to realize the monotony of a federal government job was not what she was cut out to do. She soon moved back to Colorado and worked to make her small business development center #1 in the country. TWEET: We all have entrepreneurial potential, but it depends on your #mindset. @IamTameka A “once in a lifetime opportunity” Have you experienced those times when your path changes because of a networking move from the past? Tameka’s story shows the power of networking and taking initiative, and how God orchestrates things beyond our control. Tameka was committed to being genuine, being “nice,” and leaving a great impression on the people she met along her career path. She never realized how these commitments would play into her future, all because she was always open to new opportunities. TWEET: If rich, white people do it, then it must be something fun and interesting. @IamTameka   Guest Recommendation: ONE action for a dream chaser to take—“Move forward. Do SOMETHING!” OUTLINE OF THIS EPISODE: [1:44] Tameka’s newly launched podcast [3:04] Tameka’s dreams, her path to college, and what came next [10:06] The Peace Corps: A challenging experience [13:16] Federal government work, then a move back to Denver [18:54] The man and the phone call that changed everything [24:10] The power of networking and initiative [27:16] How life experiences have led to the podcast [30:08] The empowerment in kids who earn their own money [35:03] Guiding others in the passion for an entrepreneurial mindset in kids [39:23] Tameka’s ONE action for a dream chaser   RESOURCES MENTIONED IN THE EPISODE: Tameka on Twitter Tameka on LinkedIn  Tameka on Facebook   TWEETS YOU CAN USE: TWEET: I try to be genuine and nice to everyone I meet because the #connections are so important. @IamTameka TWEET: I didn’t want to be a teacher, but I view this podcast as an educational resource. @IamTameka TWEET: The monotony of #government work wasn’t what I wanted.
