Success isn't always what it looks like on the outside.In this episode, I talk with Justin Breen about what it really means to lead a visionary business—with clarity, intention, and zero fluff.

The Smartest Entrepreneurs Know When to Pivot—Here's How to Spot and Fix a Strategy That's Holding You Back What if the reason your business growth has stalled isn't due to a lack of strategy—but rather the wrong strategy? You might be unknowingly following an anti-strategy, a sneaky business misalignment that costs time, money, and momentum. In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on my own anti-strategies—the costly decisions I thought were game-changers but turned out to be massive missteps. From a coaching program that almost derailed my core business to a CRM migration nightmare that drained time and resources, I'm sharing the hard-earned lessons that will help you avoid making the same mistakes. If you've ever felt stuck despite implementing all the "right" strategies, this episode is for you. I'll walk you through exactly how to identify and course-correct an anti-strategy before it costs you big time. HERE ARE THE 3 KEY TAKEAWAYS FROM THIS EPISODE: 1️⃣ An Anti-Strategy Is a Strategy That Works Against You – Sometimes, a plan seems smart on paper but lacks alignment with your core business goals. If a new project pulls you away from your primary revenue drivers, it could be an anti-strategy in disguise. 2️⃣ Misalignment Costs More Than You Think – Whether it's wasted time, lost revenue, or team frustration, making decisions in a silo (without the right input) leads to costly detours. The key is bringing the right people into the conversation early. 3️⃣ The Fix? Strategic Check-Ins & Gut Instincts – Regularly review your business goals and ask, “Is this truly moving us forward?” If your gut tells you something is off, trust it. Pausing and pivoting sooner rather than later can save you from a painful misstep.

Inspired by Christ's love, HopeChest serves vulnerable children living in poverty around the world, but that's not where they stop. They foster real partnerships between communities, placing a huge emphasis on building relationships and two-way transformation. Their approach lines up with our mission at Red Letter to go out and serve, to be generous, and to share the love of Jesus in real, practical, tangible ways.

Mark and Jesse discuss Patrick Lencioni's The 6 Types of Working Genius, a book exploring various personality types and the kinds of work most suitable to each. It's more than a personality test however! Lencioni's model assesses people according to their genius, competency, and frustrations in six areas: Wonder: The natural gift of pondering the possibility of greater potential and opportunity in a given situation Invention: The natural gift of creating original and novel ideas and solutions Discernment: The natural gift of intuitively and instinctively evaluating ideas and situations Galvanizing: The natural gift of rallying, inspiring and organizing others to take action Enablement: The natural gift of providing encouragement and assistance for an idea or project Tenacity: The natural gift of pushing projects or tasks to completion to achieve results   Mark and Jesse share the results of their assessments -- their areas of genius and their areas of frustration -- and how they have seen these things manifest in problems in their own businesses. They also discuss how understanding your genius and frustrations (notice the word frustration is employed, not weakness) helps to focus your efforts where you will be most impactful, and ultimately build better, more effective teams.   The 6 Types of Working Genius Assessment: https://www.workinggenius.com/?gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQjw0ruyBhDuARIsANSZ3wriydJmSn6fd5XTmzV-EF7jo6HeJf5swq4XvPmOtW7fzv2REGhNlcAaAt9oEALw_wcB     Mark Butler, Virtual CFO The Money School: https://moneyschool.works https://markbutler.com https://letsdothebooks.com   YNAB https://www.youneedabudget.com

Welcome to this episode of 20/20 Money! My guest on today's show is Dr. Pete Kehoe, OD. This intro is packed with great info, so I hope you'll listen to the entirety of it before jumping forward to the conversation.   Pete and I share in a great conversation focused around one of the more important facets that impact a successful and cohesive practice: ensuring you have the right team members in the right roles within the practice doing work that they are inherently great at doing. We have this conversation based on the lessons and teachings from Patrick Lencioni in his new book The 6 Types of Working Genius.   As a certified Working Genius facilitator, Pete is uniquely qualified to talk through the concepts discussed and taught in the book as he's worked with a number of practices that have taken the assessment. We have a spirited discussion about getting the most out of your team members in your practice and doing it in such a way that it's rewarding and empowering for them in the work that they do. We finish the conversation with Pete taking me through a discussion about my own team's working geniuses at our firm, Integrated Planning & Wealth Management, which was a lot of fun to do live on the show.   Lastly, Pete shares two very special offers for listeners of 20/20 Money. First, he shares an invite to the Live to Lead 2023 Virtual Leadership event, where you can learn from world-class leadership experts so you can implement a new action plan with renewed passion and commitment. Guest speakers include John C Maxwell, Ryan Leak, Kendra Scott, and Marcus Buckingham. The virtual price is $79/ticket. $10 for every virtual ticket sold will go to Optometry Care, OneSight or Optometry Giving Sight.    Second, ODs that are interested in learning more about the Working Genius model can access a special offer by clicking on the link below in the show notes and Pete talks more about the offer and process midway through our conversation, so be sure to stick around through the initial discussion (before we get into my firm's evaluation) to hear more about that offer.   As a reminder, you can get all the information discussed in today's conversation by visiting our website at integratedpwm.com and clicking on the Learning Center. While there, be sure to subscribe to our monthly “planning life on purpose” newsletter that's filled with tips and ideas to help you plan life on purpose. You can also set up a Triage conversation to learn a little bit more about how we serve in the capacity of a personal and professional CFO: helping OD practice owners around the country reduce their tax bill, proactively manage cash flow, and make prudent investment decisions both in and out of their practice to help them live their best life on purpose.

This suggests that they want to get things done and some of them are, as they've told me, a little frustrated that the process is not moving as quickly as they would like.

In his book, The 6-Types of Working Genius, Patrick Lencioni writes, “Teams and organizations that help people tap into their God-given talents are much more successful and productive than those that don't.” But how do you help your team do that when you don't have clarity about your own gifts and talents? In this week's episode, Jenni chats with Carey O'Connor about one of their favorite team assessments, Lencioni's Working Genius. Working Genius is 20% a personality assessment and 80% a productivity tool specifically designed for teams. Jenni and Carey are both certified in Working Genius and are passionate about using the tool to help leaders discover the best way to align their teams for success. Carey is a 4Sight Coach and co-lead pastor with her husband who loves helping leaders and teams find clarity & confidence in their roles. Jenni and Carey unpack working genius, working competency, and working frustration, the three stages of work (ideation, activation, implementation), and why every job is a “6 letter job.” They also offer real-life examples from their own leadership that show why it's so important to have all 6 working geniuses on your team, and why bringing them in at the right time is essential to productivity and success. Jenni and Carey also offer some practical solutions once you've identified potential working genius gaps in your team.Working Genius WIDGET (a quick look at the 6 types of working genius and how they fit together): Wonder - is there a need?Invention - yes, and I have an idea!Discernment - have you thought about this?Galvanizer - guys, this is going to be great and here's how we're going to do it!Enablement - how can I help?Tenacity - let's make sure it's on time and 100% completeResourcesTake the Working Genius Assessment Connect with CareyIf you would like Carey to lead a Working Genius workshop for your team you can email her at carey@get4sight.comConnect with 4Sight!Have you taken the Working Genius assessment?

This episode with Patrick Lencioni is a great segue from the article released by Wes Cochrane last week titled, "Does Your Team Suck at Workplace Conflict?"  Read that article here.   Patrick Lencioni is one of the founders and president of The Table Group, a firm dedicated to providing organizations with ideas, products and services that improve teamwork, clarity and employee engagement. Patrick's passion for organizations and teams is reflected in his writing, speaking and executive consulting. He is the author of 11 best-selling books, which have sold over 6 million copies and been translated more than 30 languages. His capstone book, The Advantage, is the pre-eminent source on organizational health. After sixteen years in print, his classic book, The Five Dysfunctions of a Team, remains a weekly fixture on national best-seller lists. Released in 2016, The Ideal Team Player is a much-anticipated follow-up to his team book and also a Wall Street Journal best-seller. The wide-spread appeal of Lencioni's leadership models have yielded a diverse base of speaking and consulting clients, including a mix of Fortune 500 companies, professional sports organizations, the military, non-profits, schools and churches. Pat addresses thousands of leaders each year at world-class organizations and national conferences. Consistently the top rated keynote speaker at major events, Pat shares his insights and inspires his audiences through his accessibility, humor and story-telling. The Wall Street Journal said he is "one of the most in-demand business speakers." Named in Fortune magazine as one of the ‘ten new gurus you should know,' Pat and his work have been featured in USA TODAY, Bloomberg Businessweek, and Harvard Business Review, to name a few. Prior to founding his firm, he worked as a corporate executive for Sybase, Oracle and Bain & Company. Pat lives in the San Francisco Bay Area with his wife and four sons. Pat is really excited about a brand new concept he and his team are launching this week called the 6 Types of Working Genius. This is an incredible tool that helps you and I identify what we are really good at and those parts of work that make us most frustrated.  Pat had me take the assessment and we discuss my results and his results.  We also dive into the organizational health movement, how to create what he calls “vulnerability-based trust” on your team, why the right kind of conflict on a team is a sign of health, and much more.  To do The 6 Types of Working Genius Assessment, click here

After an incredible series on Healing and Leadership, Jake and Bob sit down for one final episode with renowned leadership expert Patrick Lencioni. Lencioni is founder of the Table Group, a consulting firm which has helped businesses across the globe in their quest for organizational health. He is a practicing Catholic and a force behind the Amazing Parish project. Pat opens up about his short fuse (and new peace he's discovered), why people-pleasing is so deadly, and why the only kind of leadership is servant leadership. We hope you enjoy this conversation as much as we did!   Guiding Quote: Do I want to be a leader because of what it does for me, or do I want to be a leader because it's a huge responsibility to love and serve others? - Patrick Lencioni   Key Points: Pat shares how he met Dr. Bob, began to dive deeper into healing, and how that's impacted his leadership What we might be missing in the story of St. Paul's conversion Why agreeableness is not a healthy position for a leader The difference between ‘niceness' and kindness and love What a lack of conflict indicates Lencioni's 5 healthy functions of an organization Vulnerability-based trust Healthy conflict Commitment Accountability Collective Results Why all leadership is servant leadership The difference between head level knowledge of faith and heart level relationship with Jesus, truly believing that God loves us uniquely and unconditionally Pat demystifies what leaders are like in the business world and and why it's not as scary as we might think to bring faith into the workplace Pat's advice to leaders: purify your intentions, get healthy (work towards wholeness and integrity), and shepherd the people closest to you   Practical Application: The next time you catch yourself being ‘agreeable' when you have a different perspective, speak up instead.  Is your faith something that you believe with your head or a person you've encountered in your heart? Don't be afraid to go to God in prayer with the truthful answer. Be honest with him about any areas of doubt in his goodness and love.  Take some time to identify who those 'closest to you' are, who you may be called to invest more of your leadership efforts into and shepherd well.

Sharon A. Kuhn is an Emotional Intelligence Trainer who coaches executives and leaders in optimizing their own and their teams' unique potential. She is the author of Empathy: A Guide to Maximizing Human Potential where she introduces the idea of Unique EQ. Sharon is a member of the Forbes Coaches Council and is certified in the Working Genius Assessment, an affiliate of Table Group Consulting. Highlights: Sharon shares the brain science that gives us our sense of self-esteem and what she means by Unique EQ. When we can share with people states of mind or reflect their state of mind, that releases oxytocin and causes them to feel more confident. We are all trying to gather the strength that we have within to interpret other people and to be seen and interpreted by them. When Sharon works with teens in corporate, people are often reticent about looking at the internal issues. Emotion is a physical response to an internal or external stimulus. What the body wants most is the feeling of connection. Relationship is our drug of choice. Love is the most powerful thing that we can use to help people move forward. Your empathy releases brain chemicals of belonging in the other person. When someone else is feeling our feelings, they are, in effect managing our stress. As a leader, I can feel people's emotions, but I don't get sucked into their feelings. I'm able to stay true to myself. There are logical ways of coordinating with others so we are emotionally synchronistic. The more we understand ourselves, the less fearful we are. Sharon talks about reflective listening and mirroring. We must experience the chemicals of connection in order to thrive and survive. The feedback that we get from one another is shaping our brains daily. The brain often becomes disorganized as a result of confusing experiences. The more we identify with each other, the more we draw out our true self. Links: Sharon's site Sharon's Book: Empathy: A Guide to Maximizing Human Potential
