This week Ivy Slater, host of Her Success Story, chats with her guest, Sonia Kostich. The two talk about Sonia's unique merger of arts and finance, her role in fostering artistic talent at Baryshnikov Arts, and the importance of building relationships and support systems in every career phase.  In this episode, we discuss: How Sonia Kostich transitioned from a professional ballet dancer to a career in finance, going to college at 42 and working at Goldman Sachs. What inspired her to reinvent herself and pursue a new path after a successful 20-year career in dance. When Sonia made the decision to take the next step in her life and focus on education and a new career direction. Why Sonia believes keeping strong relationships and a support network is crucial, especially during major life transitions. How the skills and discipline from a dance career can translate into success in the business world. The importance of staying open to possibilities and being willing to step into the unknown as part of personal and professional growth. Sonja Kostich- Executive Director of Baryshnikov Arts brings with her both the knowledge and experience of having been a professional dancer for over two decades as well as significant business acumen derived from her business education and time working at Goldman Sachs. Through a unique and successful professional trajectory, she now merges her artistic and business experience as an arts leader. Ms. Kostich was hired by Mikhail Baryshnikov at the age of 17 to join American Ballet Theatre from The School of Classical Ballet, the training school for ABT created by Mr. Baryshnikov, consisting of only seven female students and five male students. She later danced with the San Francisco Ballet and the Zurich Ballet, Mikhail Baryshnikov's White Oak Dance Project, and in multiple collaborations with opera/theater director Peter Sellars, before co-founding OtherShore, which she co-directed for six years. Her experience in ballet, contemporary, and modern dance resulted in a diverse international career that spanned across artistic disciplines.  Upon retiring from dancing, Ms. Kostich returned to school, obtaining a Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA) in Accounting and Business Communication from Zicklin School of Business, CUNY Baruch College, where she graduated Salutatorian at the age of 42. Following, she began a full-time position at Goldman Sachs in the Finance Division with a focus on regulatory capital requirements. Simultaneously she obtained an MA in Arts Administration, eventually returning to the dance world, first as the finance manager at Mark Morris Dance Group and then as program manager at New York City Center. From 2018 to 2022, she served as the Chief Executive and Artistic Officer at Kaatsbaan Cultural Park, a 153-acre artist sanctuary located in Tivoli, NY, where she led the successful rebrand and revitalization of the over 30-year organization, bringing it to award-winning status for its significant artistic and economic contributions to the Hudson Valley.  In October 2022, Ms. Kostich joined Baryshnikov Arts as its new Executive Director. As a female Korean American, born in Seoul, Korea, and raised in Minnesota, her history, both personal and professional, lends itself to cultivating and supporting new perspectives as Baryshnikov Arts expands its capacity to create multi-platform and collaborative havens for artistic expression, innovation and freedom and especially as we commit further to elevating and sharing the stories of artists of diverse cultures and histories.

That serendipitous turn of events led him to create his own firm, GER Industries, in 1973. Specializing in fine architectural millwork, ornamental metal. as well as furniture, fixtures and equipment for construction. GER Industries has maintained manufacturing facilities internationally, first in Canada and currently in Vietnam, along with its offices and woodworking site in New Rochelle. From over 50 years of business cycles, including the COVID-19 pandemic and beyond, George will share his observations on what it takes to start and thrive in the ever-changing global environment.

Video Version About the Podcast Hello and welcome to another edition of State of Readiness. I am your host, Joseph Paris. My guest today is Ben Guttmann, Author of “Simply Put; Why Clear Messages Win―and How to Design Them.” We start the conversation going back to high school where Ben was fortunate enough to have attended a high school that had a business department and offerings for those who were interested in business goings-on. It's here where Ben got hooked on marketing. We share our ideas on communicating, mostly born of experiences. Why do people feel they have to pack so many words around an idea to get the point across; and all at the risk of making the message less clear. As an example, Joseph shares his experience as an elementary school student. When returning from summer vacation, the teacher would always ask for a "500 word essay on what I did on my summer vacation." Joseph shares that "I went fishin' and I went swimmin.' Now I have to find another 493 words of fluff to pad it and complete the assignment." Ben shares how he and a few friends came to start their own marketing firm, Digital Natives Group, starting out of an opportunity that presented itself while they were attending Baruch College. One of Ben's professors, who also ran a marketing agency, needed help with digital marketing. They meet with the professor's partner, and Ben and his friend decide to start a marketing agency specializing in digital with the professor's firm being the first client. They even set-up shop in the basement of the professor's agency. So, in the spirit of "Simply Put", I will leave it here. Enjoy the podcast. Ben Guttmann is an experienced marketing and communications expert and educator on a mission to get leaders to more effectively connect by simplifying their message. He is a former co-founder and managing partner at Digital Natives Group, an award-winning agency that worked with the NFL, I Love NY, Comcast, NBC, Universal and other major clients. Currently, Ben consults with a range of thought leaders, venture-backed startups, and other brands. He went attended Baruch College where he earned his Bachelor's Degree in Business Administration and Marketing Management. He presently teaches digital marketing at Baruch as an Adjunct Lecturer and serves on the Advisory Board of the Zicklin School of Business.  An interesting conversation which I am sure you will enjoy.

Jeannette talks to Alayna Francis, a senior communications leader and philanthropist about her diverse career journey - from working in book publicity to crisis communications and branding. Alayna shares her insights on effective crisis communication strategies, emphasizing the importance of taking ownership and addressing issues in a timely manner. She also highlights the significance of personal branding and adapting to cultural differences when working internationally.  KEY TAKEAWAYS Communication is crucial in any organization, especially during a crisis. It is important to respond promptly and effectively, addressing the issue and providing accurate information to alleviate confusion or misinformation. Personal brand is important in career development. Being authentic and true to oneself while also adapting to cultural differences and respecting others' boundaries can help build strong relationships and make a positive impact. Philanthropy and giving back to society are important values. Supporting disadvantaged individuals and groups, promoting equity, and leveling the playing field in areas such as sports and nutrition can have a significant impact on people's lives. Cultural awareness and adaptability are essential when working internationally. Understanding and respecting different cultural nuances, communication styles, and approaches to business can lead to successful collaborations and relationships. BEST MOMENTS "Communication is kind of like air. You don't realize how important it is until you don't have any." "Even if a company may be guilty of malfeasance, if they take ownership and address it in a meaningful way, that always mutes what the situation is." "You have to get into the core of what the issue is. The most crucial point is how you respond and the amount and timing of your response." "You have to be your authentic self, but then also soften enough or sculpt your approach and who you are in order to make people feel comfortable around you." This is the perfect time to get focused on what YOU want to really achieve in your business, career, and life. It's never too late to be BRAVE and BOLD and unlock your inner BRILLIANCE.

Welcome back, listeners! It's Season 4 of Owning Up!  First, we are grateful for YOU, our listeners, partners, and sponsors.  Now, let's jump right in! This season, Moni wanted to bring on guests who are influencers in our community. They are dreamers, makers, doers, believers, bold and bravely creating the career of their dreams. This podcast is here to support military spouse business owners. Moni talks with Jamie Bennett, Human Resources Director of IFundWomen and an entrepreneur. She began her journey at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, then the Lehman Brothers, followed by the Consumer Credit Counseling Service of Greater Atlanta, a non-profit in the financial services industry. She also has twenty-five years of experience in human resources. IFundWomen is a partner with AMSE, and our relationship helps us serve and provide resources to help our members get all they can on their entrepreneurial journey.  Even though Jamie always wanted to be a businesswoman, she ran from her entrepreneurial journey. Raised as a military kid, she understands the service and sacrifice mindset of the military family. So it's no surprise that she gives credit to that sacrifice when speaking about how she was able to attend Spellman College, where she received a B.A. in Economics. She received her MBA from CUNY - Baruch Colleg, The Zicklin School of Business, specializing in HR.  After working in human resources, she wanted to branch out and start her own business. Jamie continues to work in human resources because she loves serving the community. The employer-employee relationship has changed, and she loves bridging the gap between them.  Know there is comfort in being anonymous. You have to walk hand in hand with fear. Know one will remember the 80% you forgot, just the 20% you remembered.  She believes you will have no peace unless you do what you were created to do.  Know who your support is and understand where people fit in your journey and when you can bring them in.  Be mindful of the categories between an employee and a contractor. Then, get on the  IRS website and find out all you can.  When you're a solopreneur, write down everything you're doing. When you're a solopreneur, write down everything you're doing. First, what are you too expensive to do as the CEO. Then, make it make sense for your business.  Get your mindset right. Get your prices right.  Consider who you're serving when your price your products and services.  She's training to become a coach and is excited to help others transform their business journey.  For more information about Jamie and her company website, visit the IFundWomen website or find them on LinkedIn and Facebook.  We want to thank USAA Small Business for providing 100 scholarships for AMSE members.

After high school, Cathey went on to obtain her BBA in Real Estate from Baruch College's Zicklin School of Business in New York City then began her career in commercial real estate in the Midtown Manhattan NYC office as a wheel program associate with CBRE.After a few years of working in the commercial real estate industry in NYC, Cathey relocated to Las Vegas in 2014 to take advantage of the business, investor, and tax friendly environment and regulations in the city as well as the far better quality of life.
