Episode 221-Rick Maurer with a New Look at Change Management with Lois Sonstegard,PHD

36m · Published 20 May 15:44
Welcome to Episode 221 of Building My Legacy.
We’re visiting again with change expert Rick Maurer, a speaker and consultant, who works with companies in terms of change, change management and team building engagement — all things that have become so important right now. In this podcast Rick talks further about the logical steps to take when you need to implement a change in your business. He also relates how simple things — like paying attention to your customer or listening to your workforce — can help you keep customers or eliminate the need for downsizing. In today’s rapidly changing world Rick’s message will resonate with and provide valuable, practical information for leaders of businesses of all sizes.
So if you want to know:
– The important first step we often miss when communicating about changes
– Why your go-to position to improve your bottom line shouldn’t be reducing your workforce
– A model that explains why people resist change and how to get their support
– Why leaders should be curious about what their people are thinking and feeling
– How to add vitality to that meeting everyone hates
About Rick Maurer
Change expert Rick Maurer works with leaders and their teams to overcome resistance to change. Since the publication of his book Beyond the Wall of Resistance in the 1990s, Rick’s opinion has been sought by The Wall Street Journal, CNBC, NBC Nightly News, Fortune and many other media outlets. He has consulted on change management for some of the largest companies in the world, including Lockheed Martin, Deloitte, Verizon, Charles Schwab, NASA and Kaiser Permanente as well as government agencies around the world. He is the author of Seizing Moments of Possibility, which answers the question of many leaders — “Who has time to gain employee support for change?” — by showing how to blend support for change into routine tasks. It and his latest e-book, The Magic List, are available free on his website, RickMaurer.com.

Episode 220-Lizzie Horvitz with an Effective Way to Measure Sustainability with Lois Sonstegard,PHD

34m · Published 17 May 20:27
Welcome to Episode 220 of Building My Legacy.
In this podcast we talk with Lizzie Horvitz, the founder and CEO of Finch, which helps consumers understand how to find products that are best in function and best for a healthy, just planet. Lizzie’s goal is to minimize our footprint at large in the world. She is doing that by working with companies to make sure their products aren’t harming our planet and the people on it. Finch scrapes product information that’s available across the public domain and turns that information into a score that consumers can use to more easily evaluate the product’s sustainability. Whether you’re a manufacturer looking to increase the sustainability value of your product or a consumer who wants an easier way to compare products, you’ll find Lizzie’s message interesting, valuable and extremely informative.
So if you want to know:
– The criteria Finch uses — and that you should use, too — to measure the sustainability of products
– How costs are affected when products become more sustainable
– The first steps to enter the sustainability movement
– How to get your workforce involved in sustainability efforts
– The good and bad effects COVID has had on sustainability
About Lizzie Horvitz
Lizzie Horvitz’s passion for addressing climate change with real-world solutions began at the age of 16 when she spent three months living “off the grid” in the Bahamas. There she attended a school that was completely reliant on wind energy and rainwater — long before climate change became such an important topic of discussion. In her words, “I saw the solution before I fully understood the problem.” She founded Finch to help decode sustainability and make “doing better” a more accessible choice for consumers. Finch rates the sustainability of products by using an easy-to-understand system that looks at six critical areas of focus. Before launching Finch, Lizzie served as Chief Operating Officer at Muuse, fighting to stop single-use waste. She has also worked in supply chain and sustainability at Unilever, where she was responsible for integrating the company’s Sustainable Living Plan in North America.

Episode 219-Dr. Nadia Brown on Helping Women Sell More by “Making Sales Their Own” with Lois Sonstegard,PHD

34m · Published 13 May 15:30
Welcome to Episode 219 of Building My Legacy.
In this podcast we talk with Dr. Nadia Brown whose company, The Doyenne Agency, provides sales training, onsite continuing education and professional development, particularly for women. Nadia’s goal is to help business owners who are good at their craft but don’t necessarily feel comfortable in a selling role. Working primarily in male-dominated fields, Nadia figured out how to sell in a way that was different from her male colleagues but just as effective. Today she works with women to help them develop a selling approach that aligns with them, their values and their personality. Nadia believes that, with the right support, women can close more sales, have more free time and ultimately build their legacy.
So if you want to know:
– How there’s no right or wrong sales process, but it has to be your own
– Why, when women don’t dream big, we create our own glass ceiling
– Why everything doesn’t have to be perfect before you put your ideas out to the world
– How the sales process starts long before the actual sales conversation
–What your sales process checklist may be missing
About Dr. Nadia Brown
At one point, Dr. Nadia Brown thought of herself as the least likely person to lead a sales agency. Her background includes engineering, IT and financial services, and she admits she was not always comfortable selling. But, when a male boss commented that she sold “differently” than him — “but you’re just as effective” — she began to recognize that, to succeed, she had to make her sales approach her own. Today her company, The Doyenne Agency, helps women find their voice so they can excel at sales, marketing and other important aspects of running a business. Nadia, who has a doctorate in organizational leadership, is the author of two books, Leading Like a Lady: How to Shatter Your Inner Glass Ceiling and Selling Like a Lady: Courage Diary. Visit her website, discoveryoursalesblindspot.com, where you can take a Sales Persona Quiz to learn about the possible blind spots in your sales approach.

Episode 215-Collaboration #6-Jonathan Goldhill on Growing a Family-Owned Business into the Next Generation with Lois Sonstegard,PHD

33m · Published 22 Apr 14:50
Welcome to Episode 214 of Building My Legacy.
Business coach and personal strategist Jonathan Goldhill has first-hand experience with family businesses. His family men’s apparel manufacturing company — started by his great-grandfather — was sold in its third generation of family ownership, most probably because Jonathan’s grandfather saw there really wasn’t a next-generation leader who could take the business to the next level. Today Jonathan provides business coaching, especially for family businesses that want to scale up as a new generation takes over the leadership. In this podcast Jonathan talks about the various factors that will help family-owned businesses and entrepreneurial companies grow into the next generation.
So if you want to know:
– What to look for in a next-generation leader in a family-owned business
– The importance of understanding personalities within a business and how people need to relate to one another
– What it means to have a “vivid vision” as well as the importance of being able to execute on that vision
– The importance of having a playbook to run your business
– How businesses can become saleable
About Jonathan Goldhill
When, at age 20, Jonathan Hill realized there wasn’t an opportunity to get into the family men’s apparel manufacturing business, he left New York for California. Within 10 years he had established himself as the go-to expert for entrepreneurs looking to find their freedom. Today Jonathan brings 30 years of experience advising, coaching, consulting, training and guiding entrepreneurial and family businesses to grow their revenues, profits and people’s leadership. More information about Jonathan is available at www.TheGoldhillGroup.com

Episode 213-Collaboration #5-Jan Barlow on Reimagining a Workplace that Benefits Everyone with Lois Sonstegard,PHD

33m · Published 15 Apr 18:54
Welcome to Episode 213 of Building My Legacy.
In this podcast we speak with Jan Barlow, the founder of the non-profit Better Job Fit, which helps companies and individuals collaborate to identify and leverage their team strengths to increase individual performance, workplace satisfaction and profitability. Jan talks about how the pandemic, as a life-threatening experience, has changed the way employees think about their jobs and their needs. As a result, employers of all sizes need to be more innovative, look at the big picture and change their approach to strategic planning. We all need to ask, “What does my next look like?”
So if you want to know:
– Why both employers and employees need to get past “shame and blame”
– The importance of “connectional intelligence” and how collaborations can create a “win-win” situation
– How the emotional intelligence of the 90s needs to be replaced with today’s “consciously advanced” intelligence
– Why employers need to think differently about hiring and employees need to change how they decide on their next job
– Why the C-suite needs to see the real value proposition of HR
About Jan Barlow
Jan Barlow knows firsthand what can happen as a result of an unexpected career transition. When an unsuccessful merger forced her into a new position that didn’t fit her or her skill set, she saw her newly organized department collapse after nine months. This led her to create Better Job Fit, a non-profit that helps companies, executives and individuals enhance productivity and performance though customized sales training and performance plans. She can be reached at [email protected]
