In this installment of the 17Twenty podcast, Will Pender joins the guys in the studio.  Will is the new Gulf States President at Adolfson & Peterson Construction, a leading construction management and contracting firms in the U.S founded in 1946.

The guys talk about growing up between Florida and Indiana, his eventual move to Texas (as fast as he could), and his recent transition to Adolfson & Peterson.  They talk about the extended interview process for the job, the roundtable Q&A sessions with  each of the various offices, and how the interview process vets out the Adolfson & Peterson culture.  As Will looks at the "first 100 days" we talk through some observations about the company, how conversations with employees are helping to form the future of Adolfson & Peterson, and the power of the "better if" statements.  These "better if" statements help empower people so that they can be the best that they can be.

In discussing the rise to the Gulf States President at Adolfson & Peterson Construction, Will talks about the "we want Will" mindset he kept as he worked his way up.  This is a great mindset to make sure you're on the forefront of the mind of your clients, whether internal or external to your organization. 

As usual, there are great nuggets of wisdom all throughout this episode as you prepare yourself to win the week.

This week 17Twenty hosts Taylor Hale, the President at Muckleroy & Falls, a commercial contractor dedicated to client-centered relationships.  The guys talk about family, a little bit about golf,  and a lot about adventures in leadership, growth, and succession planning at  Muckleroy & Falls.  This includes components and importance of culture at work, starting from the hiring process, constantly reinforcing culture through the core values, and continuing all the way through the completion of a project.  We also talk about celebrating employees, creating two-ways streets in communication and review processes, mentorships,  big wins, and of course books and the one-big-thing.

There are a lot of great nuggets throughout Taylor's story, and we hope you guys are students of his story as you write your own.

This week our guest is David Penuel, part of the Campus Pastor Team at Watermark Community Church.  We talk about reverse engineering parenting based on things David has picked up over almost two decades of involvement with student ministry at Watermark.  The conversation revolves around four main ideas, briefly summarized as (i) the predictor or spiritually healthy kids, (ii) dangers of screens, (iii) life will wound your kids, and (iv) parenting is more rewarding than work.

To be so reductive does the conversation a disservice.  And as much as this presents as a conversation about parenting, there are great life nuggets sprinkled throughout a very thoughtful and insightful conversation about parenting.  

100% guarantee you're going to love this week's episode, and pull some great nuggets out.

As we began preparing for our #17TwentyChallenge this June, David Fultz suggested that we partner with Prison Fellowship.  Meeting Erika and learning about Prison Fellowship has been such a great joy this month, and we are all looking forward to hearing more from Erika at our special happy hour for those competing in the challenge.

This week we get a preview of what Prison Fellowship is up to across the country, a rundown of all the things that they are up to, both inside the prison and outside of prison, as they pursue restorative justice through their missional approach.  

For more information about Prison Fellowship, please visit them online at prisonfellowship.org.  They're up to great things, and could use your support in whatever capacity you can participate.

Today Kevin and Stewart sit down with April Shprintz, author, keynote speaker, business accelerator, proud veteran, and creator of The Generosity Culture®.

April is a great accelerator, and connected the 17Twenty crew with our last two podcast guests, Megan Reilly and Sarah Nuse.  We talk with April about her book -- Magic Blue Rocks: The Secret to Doing Anything -- and pick up quite a lot of wisdom nuggets through talking about the book, the writing of the book, etc. and linger on an interesting phenomenon called the Baader–Meinhof phenomenon (a frequency and mindset illusion).  We also dive in to a really cool story about a great mentor of April and a great moment.

Also, early announcement that April will be giving out the Kindle version of her book for free on her birthday, June 25th.  So if you're looking for a great read, pick it up!  

And then a deep dive in to pouring in to your people, your clients, and your communities, with some staggering statistics about the value of doing this.

... and much, much, more.
