Monday, October 24th, 2022, a school shooter killed a teacher and a student in St. Louis, Missouri. After the shooting, a letter was found in the gunman's car. A few lines stood out to podcast host Dustin Odham. The writing describes a lonely life. Odham was impacted by the letter because it shows how the shooter had fallen through the cracks. This episode does not focus on the shooting itself but on what educators and individuals working with students can do to ensure care for the pupils in their charge—Odham shares inspiring and practical advice. Odham, the host of the Change Starts Here podcast, discusses how he sets daily intentions every morning. He recommends that before your day begins, take a few moments and visualize who and how you're going to interact with people. Further, he suggests, “Also, visualize what your attitude is going to be like when the people you're not expecting come into your life that day. And how you're going to love and serve them.” Odham describes how to track the people in your care and why that's important for ensuring no one falls through the cracks. He discusses how people receive love differently and refers to the book and theory of the Five Love Languages. Odham reviews his mission statement. He urges others to create their own and reference it daily (more on building a mission statement in the episode about The Change Starts Here Origin Story). Every morning, Odham suggested: “Set 2-3 minutes to turn off the sound, close your eyes, and visualize the people that you can see that you know you're going to interact with every day to set your intentions on how you're going to love and serve them.” Dustin Odham is currently the Managing Director at Franklin Covey. He's worked as a Turnaround Specialist at St. Louis public schools and still lives in St. Louis, Missouri area.

Academic Efficacy - If teachers trust principals and teachers and parents trust teachers, you create an environment of academic confidence. Asking teachers if they’re willing to grow. Teachers created and owned the school environment. Our problem wasn’t getting teachers but choosing the right teachers. How to turnaround schools? Leadership implements attitudes and cultures that is going to turn around. Kids first Responsibility Vision Communication Fiscally responsible Using data to inform decisions, not drive it. Four types of data: academic, perception, demographic, background. Sometimes schools look at background data and superimpose that on their academic data. Data-informed means you drill down deep and see what the context of the data tells them. Implement strategies that help students think. Close the hope gap before we close any other gap. The Case Against Standardization She thought the scores were high because she We beat teachers up with data. We get lost in doing the work. Different skillset than just leading Cracking the code of code cracking - Christopher - Seton Hall There is NO empirical research regarding standardization that it works. The power of coaching It’s more about class than it is about black and white. We do it because educators don’t control How do kids learn better without standards? We’ve hounded that teachers teach standards not students. This is wrong! When students own the learning process, it’s a win win for everyone. It’s hard for us to Trust is very important. Accountability often erodes trust. How to be a transformative principal? Change your mindset. Think about how you can transform yourself. Reflect.

Last year, the Financial Sector Conduct Authority suspended Ecsponent Financial Services for breaches of financial sector laws following complaints about how the company had marketed the preference shares of JSE-listed Ecsponent limited to potential investors. Independent financial advisor Magnus Heystek, of Brenthurst Wealth Management, was among those who signalled that returns seemed to good to be true. Many pensioners were sucked into the investments, only to find themselves in dire straits when Ecsponent defaulted on payouts to preference shareholders. Ecsponent is still listed on the Johannesburg stock exchange, but it has changed its name to Afristrat. Ecsponent or Afristat is part of a global network of companies, including a company called MyBucks. This week the Bank of Zambia ordered a Zimbabwean entrepreneur George Manyere to exit MyBucks Zambia after violating banking rules. BizNews editor at large Jackie Cameron spoke Mr Manyere, a key figure in the Ecsponent organisation for his take on what’s going behind-the-scenes - and what this all means for individuals who invested in Ecsponent preference shares.

Serial Entrepreneur with 46 years experience and consultant for 37 years, John is a Deal Maker, Turnaround Specialist, Sales Improviser, Hired Gun, and Professional Speaker with 797 weekly training episodes (and counting). Also known as Dr. SpeedSelling™, John Paul can ferret out hidden reasons for declining sales profits within minutes. Instead of going to college, he went to Las Vegas and became a professional gambler in the School of Hard Knocks, which, of course, didn't prepare him for anything in the corporate world. However, what it did do is prepare him for anything. John went on to work in High Tech which allowed him to do something that no one in his family lineage had done – become a millionaire. He got a job at Mercury Computer Systems, right now worth between eight hundred million and one billion US dollars. When he started selling their products, he told everyone they were doing four million, which was a stretch. In 1989, John Paul put Mercury on the INC 500 in position number eighteen!

Businesses who are better than their competitors at providing an excellent service to an audience that really needs it have mastered the art of positioning. Today's guest is John Paul Mendocha, aka Dr. SpeedSelling, and while he is not directly involved in real estate, the expertise he shares today as a positioning expert could be the thing that saves your business. Rather than go to university, John Paul decided to cut his teeth as a gambler in Las Vegas, and he tells listeners about the salesmanship skills he learned there and later in his career. He now revives failing business and its all thanks to his knowledge about positioning. John Paul compiled these skills in his book Most Businesses Fail in the First Five Minutes, and in today's show, he walks us through the most important parts.

In today's episode, Nick talks to a fellow podcaster and scale-up specialist, Gavin Preston (The Business Mastermind Podcast)! Yes, Gavin has been on SUYB before and both Gavin and Nick want to revist their previous discussion in light of the dramatic global changes since that episode dropped earlier this year. It’s an engaging, practical conversation that’ll give you a multitude of ideas to carry forward into your next business day! KEY TAKEAWAYS Now is most certainly a time to be consuming positivity in any form. The news can be informative, but it is also sensationalised, and tends to adhere to an agenda. Instead of focusing on the end point to this, we should be marking our progress incrementally. Measure your journey through this in moments, days, weeks, and not as entire experience. The main risk to your business is not taking care of yourself, and running yourself into the ground. Taking care of ourselves will allow us the energy and clarity to add value at the right time. All bailouts and aid must be repaid eventually, so it is prudent to remain active, and to do our part to bolster business in this time. Be proactive, not complacent. The businesses coping best right now are the ones focussing upon their employees, upping their games in terms of customer service, and looking for the opportunities instead of dwelling on the negatives. BEST MOMENTS ’Slow down to speed up’ ‘Mindset is about giving yourself the presence, the clarity and the focus to know what to do, and then take action!’ ’This is now is about family, contribution and community’ ‘Our actions as employers, suppliers and leaders during this time will define us, and will be remembered’ ‘It doesn’t matter what your business model is, there’s another way of doing it'   VALUABLE RESOURCES https://www.suybacademy.com/Survive-And-Thrive-In-Business?utm_content=buffer8151c&utm_medium=social&utm_source=facebook.com&utm_campaign=buffer The Business Mastermind Podcast  Nick Bradley Twitter - https://twitter.com/nickcbradley Scale Up Your Business Podcast - https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/scale-up-your-business-podcast/id1453523566 www.nickcbradley.com Get your free copy of Gavin Preston’s invaluable guide now - 'Keep Your Boat Afloat: Business Survival Guide For COVID-19 Times' at: Bit.ly/keepyourboatafloat To contact Gavin about how he can help you and your business, email gavin@gavinpreston.com   ABOUT THE HOST Nick Bradley Having successfully built, bought and sold a number of companies, Nick removed himself from day-to-day operations, his focus turning to helping entrepreneurs get to where they want to be, in business and in life.

Gaptoothdiva talks with Darshan G. Shanti in the hopes of motivating business owners and entrepreneurs all over the country. Darshan G. Shanti, “The 24 Hour Champion” is a Business Turnaround Specialist: His particular expertise is working with small to mid-sized businesses that are actively dying and bringing them back to life in 24 hours…or less. Whether he's on the stage speaking to 1000s, tightly huddled together in a small group workshop, or working one on one with a CEO, Darshan will transform your most important, valuable assets and the real bottom line… your people. The 24 Hour Champion Says... “The problems in your life occur because you have deep, unconscious, negative and limiting beliefs about yourself. Dr. Phil calls these beliefs ‘tapes'. He says, “Tapes are long-held, lightening fast, automatic thoughts that program you for a specific outcome, oftentimes without you being aware of it. They are a natural and uncontrollable reflex and work as independently as your organs." The 24 Hour Champion has been described by the hosts of local radio, TV and internet shows as a dynamic, passionate, fun, powerful, extremely knowledgeable and informative guest. Whether the hosts are doing stories and interviews on coming back against all odds, (overcoming adversity) eliminating stress, helping students do better in school, being a peak performer (being a 24 hour champion) like his transformational book, The 24 Hour Champion talks about, or turning your life and/or your business around in hours, not years, he is your expert. His expertise in personal development, transformation and behavior change comes from his 20 years of real world experience working with over 30,000 people, from school age to people in their 80's. As a transformational speaker, Darshan has developed a wealth of stories, knowledge and poignant, memorable ways to share them to educate, entertain and permanently transform his audiences.
