Jason Javer specializes in the development side of the real estate industry, but his business growth strategies are effective in every discipline. Listen to his insights about: Jason’s real estate journey, and the unique perspective he gained on the development side of our industry How infill development works, yielding $15-20M in annual revenue for Vista Homes How to implement Jason’s business growth strategies in your own real estate business, no matter what your area of focus is Why Jason’s team uses a combination of digital and traditional marketing strategies How to humanize the relationships in our transactions to create more reciprocity and flow What metrics Jason uses to make sure he is on pace to hit his goals for 2021 Business Growth Strategies in Real Estate Jason Javer is the co-owner of Vista Homes in Charlotte, NC and the host of “The Charlotte Entrepreneur” podcast. He offers a unique perspective that deviates from the residential real estate discussions we normally have on the show because he specializes in the construction and development side of real estate. Successful business growth strategies work in any focus or discipline, and Jason has made growth a top priority in his organization for years. He joins us in this episode of Pursuing Freedom to share what he has done to create predictable growth in his business to enjoy the freedom and flexibility that comes with being self-employed. Infill Development Jason and his team are avid learners and implementers of effective business growth strategies from the top down. When it comes to branding, marketing, and business development, Vista Homes takes a progressive approach that keeps them on the cutting-edge. Jason’s business focuses on infill development which is the development of vacant/unused properties surrounded by heavily developed properties just outside of Charlotte proper. Most of these are single-family homes targeting millennials that want to start a family while remaining close to the bars and restaurants. With this strategy, Jason’s team is doing $15-20M in revenue a year with about 35 transactions. Try Everything, Track Everything, and Double Down if it Works Real estate investing often seems like a foreign language to those of us selling residential real or working on the mortgage side of the industry. However, Jason’s approach to planning for success and implementing business growth strategies that produce the results he wants is universal. One of the key elements of this is Jason’s ability to operate off-market. He has developed a network of agents and brokerages that know who to go to when they have good off-market opportunities. Jason’s approach is to try everything, track everything, and double-down if it works. This is accomplished through both digital advertising and traditional advertising. About Jason Javer A New York native, Jason Javer graduated from the Ross School of Business at the University of Michigan with a degree in finance. After working for a private equity company that invested in real estate in Chicago, Jason felt he had the foundation needed for success in real estate investment and development. Additionally, his experience as a financial analyst allowed him to take the leap into real estate entrepreneurship 6 years ago. As a member of the thriving Charlotte community, Jason enjoys his time at the office and out on the golf course with friends.

We know the importance of networking, but many of us either shy away from it or take the wrong approach. Today's guest, Jordan Harbinger, does things differently, and it shows. As a Top 50 iTunes podcast host for over 12 years, Jordan deconstructs the playbooks of the most successful people on the planet, sharing their strategies and providing practical insights. In this episode, we hear about Jordan’s podcasting journey, and how building his show from scratch for a second time showed him the true power of his network and connections. We discuss the difficulties that came with starting over, including self-doubt and being unable to compensate the team fairly, and their resolutions. Jordan also shares some of his invaluable relationship development insights. Rather than calling it networking, which he feels has been tainted by sleazy salesman, Jordan’s approach is more authentic, and it recognizes the importance of making small deposits every day.

We get some actionable steps as well as a teaser of his free networking course. Along with this, we also discuss current podcast numbers, why he is spending so much on his show at the moment and some of the obstacles with podcasting ads.

No good comes from making decisions out of panic or fear. So, what can multifamily syndicators do to navigate the next couple of months and cover the bills—even if our tenants can’t (or won’t) pay the rent on time? How can we reassure our investors that their money is safe and leverage the available safeguards to make it through the Coronavirus shutdown? Jason Pero is the multifamily investor and syndicator behind Pero Real Estate, one of the leading real estate firms in Erie, Pennsylvania. Jason and his wife bought their first duplex in 2001 and continued to invest in small multifamily properties while he worked full-time in medical device sales. By 2012, Jason had built a 300-unit portfolio and was able to leave his 9-to-5 to pursue real estate full-time. He started syndicating deals in 2018, and today, Jason owns and self-manages 1K units in Erie County. On this episode of the podcast, Jason joins me to discuss why he waited so long to get into syndication and why he self-manages his own portfolio. Jason explains how he is navigating the COVID-19 crisis, sharing the safeguards he has in place to get through the next few months and describing his approach to the situation as both a property manager and syndicator.

In this episode, Matt, Steve, and Jessica will have a conversation with Jason Dunnigan, better known as The Modern Dad on Instagram. His Instagram handle, the_modern_dad, is an ode to his message and belief that dads need to be more involved in their children’s lives than they traditionally have been. While he’s an expert social media marketer and runs global social media accounts for a craft company, his true passion lies in being a husband and father. He is married with four children, and is known for his love of shopping, fashion, and all things family focused.Jason will hilariously share his great story about learning to love himself and being an awesome dad and husband. They will all start off by sharing what they’ve been going through with the effects that the Coronavirus related shutdowns have had on their personal lives. Jason’s journey started in Elementary school where he got teased a lot and the other kids thought he was gay because he liked jumping rope with the girls instead of playing with the boys. He wasn’t so much into most of the things that boys were into and that put a lot of social pressure on him because people kept saying mean things about him, and he just couldn’t understand what made people think of him that way when he was just being himself and enjoying it. That continued all through into his late teens until at one point when he got sick of it and decided to move to California where he experienced so much acceptance that he figured out all he needed to do is not care what anyone else thought of him, and just love and accept himself as he was. Now, Jason is the perfect example of what it means to live your best life by being true to who you are. Stay tuned as he shares how he got to the point of owning who he is and how that set him free, so you can apply the same to set yourself free from the confines of caring too much about what other people think of you.Highlights of the Discussion: Matt’s worst nightmare dressing rooms (02:19)Why Jason calls himself The Modern Dad (04:11)Knowing the comfort of leggings and doing the single ladies dance in a custom made leotard and heels (08:12)Having to still go to work despite being in a digital oriented position (12:57)How Jason learned to accept who he was and love himself (15:17)The biggest misconception that people had about him (22:30)Crazies of getting married at 30 and Jason’s opinion on online dating (26:15)The detriment of getting so caught up in who everybody else thinks we're supposed to be (34:16)Helping people accept and love themselves (43:24)Additional Resources:Jason “The Modern Dad” on Instagramwww.Linktr.ee/TheBoldLogic--Be sure to follow us on Instagram and Facebook!--You can find the podcast on Apple, Google, Spotify, Stitcher, or wherever you listen to podcasts.If you haven’t already, please rate and review the podcast on Apple Podcasts!

Jason Fried is the co-Founder and CEO of Basecamp and bestselling author of Rework and It Doesn’t Have to be Crazy at Work. He has also given a TED Talk titled Why Work Doesn’t Happen at Work.  Jason is a big believer in capping a workweek at 40 hours, he says, “We don't want people working more than 40 hours. You don't need to. And if we're doing that, then we're doing something wrong, actually. I know a lot of companies, long hours is seen as doing something right, like, "Let's stay late, and let's work on the weekends and let's pull all-nighters." I think that's completely wrong. And so, we're very careful about not encouraging our employees to work that way.” Anything that cannot get done in 40 hours can wait until the next day or the next week. The reason is 50, 60, 80 hour weeks are not sustainable. In an emergency, they can be done once in a great while, but to keep it up consistently, it doesn’t produce the best results.  Jason says, “I'm sorry, 80-hour weeks if you wanna be in business for a long time. Sometimes you're gonna burn out, or you're gonna burn people out, and it's gonna be very difficult. Okay, maybe you can do it, but it's not gonna be pleasurable, it's not gonna be enjoyable. You're not gonna keep a good team together with you for a long period of time. And you're gonna lose a lot of great people along the way. And I don't wanna lose great people. It's hard enough to find great people. So I wanna keep them happy with the reasonable work hours, challenging work, great people, great environments, and those kinds of things.” Just because you put in a lot of hours doesn’t mean you are producing good work, you can spend extra hours on bad work. Most of the time the best ideas and new innovations come after people come back to a problem refreshed. Working until you are beyond exhausted and stressed doesn’t usually lead to breakthroughs. “It's just kind of unusual in the United States, with our work hustle culture that's just I think really damaging and really destroying people over the long term. And I know that, hey, sometimes when you're in your early 20s you wanna put all the hours in, and you want bust your ass and the whole thing, I get it. But the thing is that it's not sustainable. And when you have companies that encourage that kind of behavior when those companies themselves know it's not sustainable, that's almost fraudulent, and I just don't wanna be that kind of company.” There may be people reading this who are feeling stuck in a situation at work where leadership encourages people to work 60+ hours and rewards those who come in early and stay late. For those people, Jason says you should assess the situation and figure out what you have control over. Can you talk to leaders to get them to change? Can you set an example and change the mindset? If you have some control, figure out how to make it better. If you don’t have control, it may be time to look for another job. “Most people who profess the craziness and are all in on these long, long, long hustle things, they keep doing it until they can't. They don't choose all of a sudden, like when they're 35, to go, Oh, I don't have to do that anymore. I'm gonna go back to a normal day's work. Because the habits they've built are all built around busy, and packed schedules, and hustling, and the whole thing. So it's very hard to break habits. If that's what you're used to doing, you're gonna keep doing that, and at some point it's going to collide with reality and life. Or it's going to keep you from reality and life. And I think that's really unfortunate too. Work is not that important to keep everything else out of your life.”    What you will learn: The problem with the hustle culture Why Jason feels work should be capped at 40 hours per week What to do if you feel trapped by work Advice for leaders who want to give employees more autonomy What it is like to work at Basecamp

Jason Crawford studies the history of innovation on his blog The Roots of Progress with detailed case studies on things like the invention of the bicycle, the invention of steel, and how we decided between alternating and direct current. In this conversation, we discuss why my skeptical and argumentative 16-year-old self was misguided about the nature of progress and what Jason has learned through his studies of historical progress. We also discuss possible causes of stagnation in economic growth and scientific discovery, as well as the differences between studying history from a top down vs a bottom up approach.

Most of my writing never makes it to the blog, so get on that list. Show Notes: [01:04] Disabusing my 16-year-old self of some misguided assumptions about the nature of progress – and all the ways in which life is better now for just about everyone than it was in 1700. [10:10] Common arguments against “progress”: zero-sum thinking and Malthusian concerns about population. And, the unexpected developments that change the population calculus. [17:16] Why Jason is skeptical of arguments about “relative happiness” and increasing inequality. [19:27] Behaviorally modern humans have been around for a long time, so why wasn’t there “progress”? What changed that caused us to start inventing things much more quickly? [28:13] Are there broad sociological trends that kickstart progress (like WEIRD psychology and the Catholic Church)? [34:27] Jason prefers to take a bottom-up approach to understanding progress through specific examples of inventions like bicycles, steel, vaccines, etc. [41:02] What about ideas that potentially require several things to go correctly at a time? Do these kinds of ideas resist “tinkering” or are do they have tangible intermediate steps? [45:40] Are we really in a period of scientific and economic stagnation – as argued by Tyler Cowen, Patrick Collison, Peter Thiel and others? Or, are we just waiting for the next “S Curve” of progress to take off? [53:14] Why hasn’t the increased accessibility to information facilitated by the internet resulted in more progress? What are the negative impacts of things like bureaucratic calcification and institutions that optimize for things like prestige and politics over progress? [01:06:42] Coming soon on The Roots of Progress: Mortality rates and public health improvements, agriculture and the economics of food, and how to build a bridge that doesn’t collapse.

Our guest today is Jason Jacobs, host of the podcast, My Climate Journey. Jason led a long career as the (former) Co-Founder and CEO of the popular fitness app, Runkeeper (acquired by ASICS). Like many of us, Jason always had a strong conviction to care for the environment and after his app was sold, he decided he wanted to do more, but didn’t know how. So, he began making his private climate journey public and soon enough, My Climate Journey emerged.  As you can tell by the podcast name, Jason’s cause is all about his evolution of getting into the fight to help save the environment, help save the planet, and help make for a better world for the next generation and beyond. What started out a newsletter to a few friends, the My Climate Journey podcast has grown into a thriving community with a strong ethos of collaboration, ambition, determination, and optimism around climate change.  Often times, many people care about the climate and want to make a difference, but don’t know where to start! According to Jason, the biggest problem is standing right in front of us. The problem is us, and only when we learn how to step out of our own way, can we begin to make a change. My Climate Journey is not only a platform for discussion and interesting conversations, but it has become a proactive catalyst for change, connecting and inspiring more and more people to get educated, share resources, network, work together, and ultimately, take action. In this episode, Jason shares his own journey, not only with climate change, but with the podcast itself; how it started, how it has evolved, how audiences have responded, and the impact it hopes to make. This episode is also packed with loads of resources and organizations who are setting brilliant examples for us to follow as we set off on our own climate journey’s as companies, leaders, parents, students, scholars, and, ultimately, people who deeply care about the planet and want to make a difference, starting today.   Key Topics:   •   Jason’s background and how he first started mobilizing around climate change. (01:52) •   Why Jason decided to make his private learning journey a public learning journey. (02:55) •   How the intimacy of podcasting led Jason to choose this medium for his cause. (03:28) •   How creating a podcast can be a catalyst for deeper engagement and networking. (04:32) •   Using a podcast as a vessel to educate and inspire others around climate change. (06:17) •   How a podcast can be used to create a culture and ethos around climate change. (08:40) •   Why the real climate change issue is about getting out of our own way and acting. (11:02) •   How you can join the fight and begin your own climate journey, starting today! (11:47) •   Helpful resources and tools to help set you up on your own climate journey. (13:09) •   It’s more important to get started than to be perfect: advice for new podcasters.

It’s A Tale of Two Hygienists’ monthly student roundtable episode, which means Andrew and Michelle have invited a trio of guests to educate student listeners on a chosen topic. This episode’s subject is all about sealants: what are the most effective sealing materials? What can they prevent? And when can they prove to be a hazard?   Jason Luchtefeld (previously heard on episodes 64 and 145 of A Tale of Two Hygienists) is a dentist based in Robinson, Illinois who has been practicing for 20 years. Julie Frantsve-Hawley (previously on A Tale of Two Hygienists #68) works with the nonprofit group DentaQuest’s Partnership for Oral Health Advancement. Spring Hatfield currently works in a small Alabama practice, having previously been a receptionist and assistant before becoming a dental hygienist.    In this episode, our guests summarize and analyze the readings on sealants they brought to this roundtable, debate the finer points of what counts as permanent or non-permanent restorations, and discuss the dreaded “restorative death spiral.”     EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS:   Interview starts: 3:03   - Jason summarizes the 2017 literature review “The Use of Pit and Fissure Sealants,” which discusses the wide variety of materials utilized in sealants since the procedure began in the 1920s.   - Julie reviews “Barriers to Sealant Guideline Implementation within a Multi-Site Managed Dental Care Practice”—which she actually co-authored—and discusses how pit and fissure sealants can play a key role in “secondary prevention” when applied to non-cavitated carious lesions.   - Spring reviews a randomized clinical trial from last year that tested whether resin-based sealants could prevent non-cavitated carious lesions from progressing.   - What a study on color taught Julie about the power of terminology and puns.   - Why Jason doesn’t think there’s a significant difference between a permanent restoration and preventative, non-permanent restoration.   - Spring explains what the “restorative death spiral” is.   - Take care to ensure that your patients can see to their basic dental needs at home, even if it means just giving them free toothbrushes.     QUOTES:   “Isolation is critical for the success of sealants.”   “If you have dentists that are claiming sub-optimal skills for placing a sealant, then they shouldn’t be placing fillings or crowns.”   “If we don’t have these terms and have general consensus on what they mean, that instance in itself is having a barrier!”   “Always be inquisitive and be open to change your mind when faced with evidence.”   “Just because you learned it in school doesn’t mean you do it your whole career!”   “ LINKS:   Jason’s email: jluchte@hotmail.com    Julie’s email: frantsvehawley@gmail.com   Spring’s email: springhatfieldrdh@gmail.com Ivoclar Vivadent Helioseal F Plus Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8bhA6peh28A&t=12s  Thank you to Paradise Dental Technologies aka PDT for providing sponsorship for this episode!   Be sure to thank the sponsor for this episode by heading over to www.PDTDental.com and picking up a new instrument or telling them thank you in person at one of the conferences!   THIS EPISODE COUNTS FOR CE! - but read the disclaimer below as it might not count for your state.

Here we cover true leadership, and you'll get about 10 great quotes from Jason in this interview. Listen in to hear why people aren't talking to each other in families, communities, and corporations - and how to break the cycle! Why Jason focuses on startups David’s unusual connection with Jason Why it’s critical to override our natural instinct – both in life generally and specifically when it comes to tough conversations. Pause, make a new choice. Why Jason believes humanity is in trouble. How Jason makes life and death decisions, and how it helps him not freeze in essential moments. No response IS a response. How we humans are conflict averse and how it causes us problems. Jason’s vision for the world. Ninja tip: Speak to someone ELSE about your difficult conversation first, to release charge. Then the actual conversation will be much smoother. Plus, they can listen for clarity and power. How Jason’s family stopped talking to each other because they didn’t know how to solve problems. And how this translates to the corporate world. Jason and David use a real conflict they’ve had in their relationship as an example. When you have an issue, should you bring it up or not? An example of how avoiding tough conversations can hurt a team. Practice at work and with friends – work up to family, as it’s often the hardest. QUOTES: “When you try and preserve a relationship by avoiding a tough conversation, you can destroy the relationship” – Jason Gore “Speak to someone ELSE about your difficult conversation first, to release charge. Then the actual conversation will be much smoother” – Jason Gore “When you get employees talking to each other, everything gets better” – Jason Gore “When you avoid a tough conversation, you also avoid the likelihood of things getting better” – Jason Gore “You really get to know who people are by how they navigate conflict with you” – Jason Gore “Be soft on the person, hard on the problem” – Jason Gore “Tough Conversations – Missing Ingredient #1: Willingness to Own your world or perceptions” – Jason Gore “Tough Conversations – Missing Ingredient #2: Willingness to understand the other person’s world” – Jason Gore “Don’t have tough conversations when you’re upset” – Jason Gore “We’re talking about the easy stuff; we’re not talking about the harder stuff” – David Wood *** For show notes and past guests, please visit http://playforreal.life/podcast Sign up for David’s email newsletter and download the 4-Step Tough Conversations blueprint at http://playforreal.life/blueprint See if you qualify for a free discovery session to explore coaching with David at http://playforreal.life/coaching Join the free weekly zoom call to role-play your tough conversations at http://playforreal.life/zoomregister 70% of employees are avoiding a tough conversation.

Episode 43: From Advertising to Film: Jason Gregory on Waking Up White (Part 1 of 2 episodes)   This week’s guest: Jason Gregory, writer and producer of the film Waking Up White   Who is Jason Gregory? Jason D. Gregory is a recent film production MFA graduate from the University of Central Florida’s Nicholson School of Communication and Media (Go Knights!). As a child, he recalls that his friends wanted to “be like Mike,” while Gregory’s dream was to “be like Spike.”   He received his undergraduate degree in film from Virginia Commonwealth University in 2002 and during his studies, Gregory was selected, twice, as a participant in the Zora Neale Hurston/Richard Wright Writer’s Workshop.   In 2010, Gregory founded his own Telly-award-winning, multicultural advertising agency, Gregory Media Group, LLC. Yet, he still yearned for the “business of show.”   Jason Gregory took the plunge to chase his childhood dream and in 2016 enrolled in the MFA film production program where he immediately began writing his thesis project, Waking Up White. Filmed as a television pilot, Waking Up White is the story of a Black family that wakes up White and has 30 days to determine if they’d rather return to their cultural roots or stick with the “new skin” they’re in. Since its development, the pilot script for has been selected as a 2018 Quarterfinalist in ScreenCraft’s Film Fund and Pilot Launch TV Script competitions and a 2018 Semifinalist in the WeScreenplay Television Competition. The television pilot has recently been submitted to various local, national and international film festivals, while also garnering local and regional media coverage.   And because of his commitment to nurturing and mentoring the next generation of filmmakers, Gregory was recently appointed as the president of the Orlando Urban Film Festival; a festival dedicated to promoting and supporting minority films and filmmakers.   In 2018, Gregory was selected to participate in the National Association of Television Producers and Executive’s (NATPE) first Emerging Producers Workshop, where thirteen “emerging producers” where brought together to discuss the future of unscripted, reality television programming. As a result of that workshop, Gregory and the other producers formed 13 Brains; an unscripted, reality television “think tank.” Under the mentorship of Scott Sternberg Productions, 13 Brains develops unscripted, TV concepts and pitches them to networks and streaming platforms. Since its establishment in 2018, 13 Brains has successfully sold its first concept to Netflix, and continues to cultivate and pitch additional programming.   As a graduate student, Gregory was the recipient of the 2019 College of Arts and Humanities Graduate Student Teaching Award and the inaugural Nicholson School of Communication and Media’s Outstanding Teaching Graduate Programs Award. He was nominated for his commitment to teaching his students to “fail their way to success” and is honored to have received both awards.   In 2019, Gregory completed another childhood dream and joined UCF’s English department as a scriptwriting lecturer. In this position, he will continue to mold, mentor and challenge his students to find their voice through the art of scriptwriting.   Finally, Gregory has been married to his wife, Monique, whom he affectionally calls “the girl next door”, for 16 years and they reside in Oviedo, Florida with their two sons, Austin and Miles.   Key Questions answered by Jason Gregory: How did Jason’s creative journey begin? What are the challenges to being a creative entrepreneur? How did Jason build up his own advertising firm? Why Jason decided to get an MFA? Why is UCF a strong film school? How did Jason come up with the thesis of Waking Up White?   Jason Gregory Discusses: Opening up his own ad shop Challenges of the unknown Pursuing a film degree How Jason balanced his time in Grad school while still running his ad shop Crafting his story How Jason strengthens his writing muscle How Jason stays motivated How to find a mentor and what to look for     Key Takeaways from Jason Gregory:   Develop a positive reputation in the field Create a team of people you can depend on Make note of your personal experiences Write every single day Take calculated risks Fail your way to success Find a mentor     Listen on Apple Podcasts, Soundcloud, Stitcher and Google Play Click here to subscribe via RSS feed (non-iTunes feed): https://funnybrowngirl.libsyn.com/rss   Announcements If you’re looking for a community of supportive creative entrepreneurs to elevate your journey to the next level, join me here: https://funnybrowngirl.com/facebook Subscribe to my newsletter of creative resources, including opportunities and fellowships at https://funnybrowngirl.com/subscribe    Social Media Info Connect on Instagram:   Jason Gregory – @jaydgreg FunnyBrownGirl – @funnybrowngirl    Resources for Film and Screenwriting Episodic Labs: https://episodiclab.staymacro.com/   Script Lab: https://360.thescriptlab.com/   Script Anatomy: https://www.scriptanatomy.com/ Black List: blcklst.com List of 2020 screenwriting competitions: https://www.wgfoundation.org/fellowship-writing-programs-for-screenwriters-masterlist   Ultimate Film Budget Guide: https://nofilmschool.com/film-budget-template   Screen writing course I took for the Issa Rae competition: https://www.coursera.org/learn/script-writing   #CreativeBreakthrough #CreativeBreakthroughPodcast #CreativeHustler

"To exhibit that you recognize that you are not alone in your creating of art, that keeps you humble and that's a quality that I love and admire." Today on NION Radio, we have Jason Naylor, an award-winning artist, designer, and creative director who has been working in NYC for 15 years. After earning a BFA in graphic design from Brigham Young University, Jason moved to NYC to immerse himself into the life, color, and magic of New York. Jason began his professional career working in the Creative Department of MAC Cosmetics, where he learned about the business of art and design and developed his taste for spreading life and color into any and every project he could get his hands on. Six years later, Jason set out to start spreading his own message into the world. Ever since I discovered his work on a mural during one of my shoots, I have been a big fan of Jason, his work, and the positive messaging he is sending to the world. Jason's tagline is "CREATIVELY POSITIVE x POSITIVELY CREATIVE" and his work expresses this vividly. With such a developed and specific aesthetic and message, I wanted to bring Jason in to talk about building a brand around your art, and we got to talk about that as well as a lot of his artistic growth and inspiration, and I can't wait to share this episode with you. Listen in to learn how Jason has created his brand, developed his craft and style, and what his unique upbringing gave him to share with the world.

What truly moves people to action, the head or the heart? While information and content is vital, today's guest reminds us that storytelling and connecting with people's hearts through vulnerability is the most powerful way to impact them.   Jason Harris is the president and CEO of the award-winning creative agency Mekanism and works closely with brands through a blend of soul and science to create shareable and provocative campaigns that engage audiences. Jason's passion for leveraging the power of storytelling to humanize brands and establish an emotional connection with consumers as people rather than mere transactions has revolutionized the role and impact of modern marketing. Jason's innovative methods are currently studied at Harvard Business School through the case study “Mekanism: Engineering Viral Marketing.”   We'll explore:   A bit about Jason's current speaking platform. Why Jason is so passionate about storytelling. Why storytelling can be more powerful than focusing on just teaching content. How body language and movement play a critical role in effective speaking. The framework Jason used in his talk: personal to broad to urgent. The most surprising things Jason learned from Speakers Who Dare. How speaking has impacted Jason personally and professionally. Jason's tips for becoming a more effective speaker.  

In this episode, Jason Fried, co-founder of Basecamp, shares his beliefs around achieving business success in a modern world which tends to disproportionately focus on the massive success stories (the outliers). Jason gives his honest take on companies like WeWork, Uber, and Lyft that may give off the appearance of wild success but may instead provide an example of the dangers of perverse incentives. We get into Jason’s backstory, and how his affinity for optimizing efficiency and production in the workplace culminated with the creation of Basecamp, his very successful web-based project management software business. Perhaps most importantly, we get really deep into all aspects of work-life balance and what it really means to “work hard” (Stay tuned for an AMA-style deep dive into the topic of work-life balance with Jason in the near future). In addition, Jason provides many more valuable nuggets including thoughts on some common mistakes made by businesses today, the value of giving employees autonomy, how to take the right types of risks, why he doesn’t set any goals, and much, much more. We discuss: Jason’s background and his early entrepreneurial spirit [9:45]; Views on completing higher education and the notion of hard work [24:00]; Beliefs around success in business [35:00]; WeWork, Uber, and Lyft: Poor business practices and the dangers of perverse incentives [41:30]; Jason’s early career: his redesign approach and personal motivation [56:00]; The genesis of Basecamp [1:10:00]; Why Jason does not set goals but instead focuses on a vision [1:12:15]; Workplace motivation and hiring practice [1:20:30]; The importance of luck and not overworking [1:32:00]; A framework to work less and optimize for workplace autonomy [1:38:00]; The importance of saying ‘no’ more often (and tips for doing so) [1:55:00]; A shared passion for watches [2:03:30]; Guarding against the perils of phone addiction [2:08:45]; Jason’s views on email and chat for communication [2:15:00] and; More.
