WITF and Tim Lambert received some good news last week. Tim's story about his father being one of the last living witnesses to a unique atomic test in the 1950's was honored with a national Edward R. Murrow Award for best use of sound. Director of Journalism Scott Blanchard who was Tim's editor for the project sat down with Asia Tabb to talk about the impact of this story. “The Murrow Awards are among the most prestigious in the industry. The Radio Television News Directors Association presents Murrow Awards for first in 14 regions across the US. Broken down by the size of the market a station serves, and then the regional honorees are judged, and one story is recognized as the best among all regions in its market size. As the organization says, stories must uphold the RTDNA Code of ethics, demonstrate technical expertise, and exemplify the importance and impact of journalism as a service to the community, so they honor the dedication and excellence that broadcaster Edward R Murrow was known for. This is the seventh time that Tim has received a national Murrow, and the 18th time for WITF since 2007. So, it's a big deal to be honored on a regional level. And in fact, Tim Story received three regional awards for sound digital presentation and for Feature Story. And I want to take a minute to note that the, did digital producer Jeremy Long, graphic designer Tom Downing, and videographer Doug Watson all played key roles in the project.” The story called “A Pennsylvania man saw the true power of Atomic Annie,” is about Tim's father, who was in the Army, witnessing a nuclear test in the Nevada desert in 1953. “It was the only time that a tactical nuclear device was fired from a cannon. So it was a massive logistical undertaking. And a lot of that comes through in Tim's story. And in May 1953, when that test took place, the Korean War was on going, and North Korea and Russia were paying really close attention to what the U.S was doing. So, as you'll hear, the historian that Tim talked to, you say the U.S. was very much sending a message to those adversaries with this test. So this is a fascinating story about Tom Lambert's personal experience amid the bigger picture. Of this, event that had such international impact. And it's also a story that lives in American cultural history, the whole atomic age.” Support WITF: https://www.witf.org/support/give-now/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On this week's Sustainability Now!, your host, Justin Mog, welcomes to the studio a citizens' panel for a conversation about the concept of Doughnut Economics! In 2017, renegade economist, Kate Raworth, authored the influential book “Doughnut Economics: 7 Ways to Think Like a 21st Century Economist.” Imagine an economy that actually worked for everyone and did not lead to planetary collapse. Imagine an economy in which GDP growth is not the primary objective. What if economists used more meaningful metrics to gauge the success of an economy. What if we placed thriving rather than growth at the heart of our economy. To discuss these issues and dive deep into the concept of Doughnut Economics, this week we sit down with John Hartmann, Edward Burns, Terrell Holder (from Forward Radio's proud community partner, the Greater Louisville Sierra Club), and Forward Radio's newest host, UofL Economist, Tom Lambert (host of Economic Impact - learn more at https://www.forwardradio.org/economicimpact).

Key Talking Points Not meeting customers expectations- losing the opportunity to make it right Follow-up calls/email/texts- saying thank you without asking about another appointment, 95% will bring back once you have a conversation. Many won’t let you know what went wrong, reach out and openly accept feedback. 70% of comebacks are communication issues- customer to advisor, advisor to technician, technician to advisor Quality control- tech driving car to verify correction, QC checklist, senior service advisor driving car DVI to minimize comebacks- accountability for comebacks and confidence when talking to a customer Logging comebacks- google spreadsheet, time/repair/cause. Look for trends in comebacks. Is it trainable? More detail the better for service advisors and technicians- service advisors need training on asking customers the right questions Customers often withhold information of what’s wrong or what it’s had done previously because they think it’ll cost less- build rapport and trust with customers and ask open-ended questions for discussion. Let service advisors advise- are they overloaded with estimates/scheduling/answer phone etc? Consider bringing another employee on board. Give them time to talk on the phone and communicate with customers instead of rushing through it. “Caring for cars and people”- value customer and their vehicle Leadership- set goals, get team on board, measure the goals, provide feedback Team culture-making mistakes doesn’t mean you’re kicked out the door. Failure is learning. When mistakes happen bring it up when you’re one on one. Perfection doesn’t exist- give grace to customers and employees and make it right. Progress, not perfection. “Perfection is not attainable, but if you chase perfection, we can catch excellence.” Vince Lombardi Feedback- ask new...

Tom Lambert got his start right at home. His dad and uncles always had projects going on in the home garage. During the summer vacation, his dad would have Tom remove engines from the vehicles that were being sent to the local machine shop for rebuilding. He signed up for business management at a local community college and attended night classes and sometimes would have to go back to the shop and finish up jobs. The business continued to grow. By 2007, the operation was doing over 1 million in sales. By 2013, they were doing over 2 million in sales. This was such fast growth but they never seemed to get ahead financially. Even the financial management classes helped a bit, but they never truly got a great grasp of their finances. They were too busy working countless hours in the business to keep up with demand instead of taking a step back to figure the business out. In the past three and a half years, Tom and his dad have made strategic adjustments in the business. They are now a $2.5 million dollar a year shop with 10% annual growth and profitability. They continue to improve every day. Tom says he has the best team and a strong culture. In January 2017 Tom bought his dad completely out of the business. Tom struggled for many years because he had lost the passion for the auto industry. After receiving all the guidance and coaching over the past few years, he is rejuvenated and has more passion than ever and is currently doing everything he can to pay it forward to other local shop owners. Tom’s previous episodes (https://remarkableresults.biz/?s=%22Tom+Lambert%22) . Key Talking Points: Maryann Croce Mindset – Micro Managing is the enemy of leadership. It’s that simple. Leadership is about empowering others and micromanaging discourages them. Why we micromanage – It’s Fear-based. Fear of not being viewed as an expert. There is a disconnect from the work. You’re in new territory with new responsibilities. Many are not sure of their role and goal. Fear of losing control- You now depend on others to complete tasks that you use to do. Others may be keeping up and you no longer are. Fear believing no one will care as much as you or your brand is on the line. – This comes from not setting clear expectations and goals. What micromanaging looks like. (People don’t

Help your people understand your systems and processes and get out of their way then guide them. You need to accept their way to do the job. Your systems, processes and policies will guide. Allow mistakes from your people because you made many. They will cost you money as they did you, however, be sure there is a teaching moment after the mistake was made.

Author Terry James is in to to talk about his new book Tabby and the Return of the Blood Elf EmpressTerry James was born and raised in Northwest Ohio on September of 1972. Throughout his life, he had always dreamed of becoming a writer and following in the foot steps of some of his favorites such as Douglas Adams. It wasn't until 2013 when he finally decided to make that dream come true with the release of his first title, "Tabloid Tabby Book 1: The Hunchback of Eerie County High School". Though the book connected and was loved by those that read it, ongoing disputes between him and publisher, American Star Books, began to take a toll and the project was all but nearly abandoned. Then in early 2015, James finally severed his ties with the publisher. James then re-edited the work, added some additional content, and revamped the cover and title and re-released the book under the new, and improved, "Tabby and The Hunchback of Eerie County High". Since then he has completed the series with, "Tabby and The Dissolution of April" (Book 2) and "Tabby and The Return of The Blood Elf Empress" (Book 3), along with a prequel to the series entitled, "Deceased Denise". A collection of anthology contributions was released on the three year anniversary of his first book's release entitled "Selfie Portrait"When not writing, James is a employee of the United States Postal Service. He is married to his lovely wife, Robin, and has 5 children: Shelbi, Dallas, Paige, Kailee, and Addy. He is still a big reader who enjoys books by fellow authors Jim Beard, Tom Lambert and Michael Timmins. He is also a huge Star Wars fan, loves Disney animated movies, and Japanese Anime.
