A New Direction

So many people talk about leadership, but how does that really translate into everyday life?  What about the language of leadership?  Is Leadership Language only used in the business world or can we apply it to our whole life?

In Episode 17 of A New Direction I talk with Author, Business Consultant, Keynote Speaker, Advisor to the "sharks", Chris Westfall. (see www.westfallonline.com).  Chris has a new book published by Wiley publishers entitle "Leadership Language - Using Authentic Communication to Drive Results"

Before you even think this book is only for business people, CEO's and such, you would be wrong.  This book is for everyone!  If you are single it will speak to you about dating, if you are married how to better lead in your marriage, if you are janitor it will speak to you how to lead from what ever position in life you are in...and yes, even you CEO, COO, CFO, CTO or what ever C-suite you are in it will speak to you as well.

Chris and I discuss topics such as what do leaders think, redefining leadership, what is it you have that makes you a leader, why is creativity the number one desired quality in a leader,  who sits in the empty chair and so much more!

"Leadership Language is delicious, you will be dipping your brain bread in the sauce of the book and licking your fingers...it is that great of a book" ~Jay Izso

Again special thanks must go to The La Jolla Writers conference. 

we are so grateful for you sponsorship of this show!

Whether you are an aspiring author who has yet to put pen to paper, someone intent on writing a book to augment your business, a writer on the cusp of submitting to agents, or someone who wants to know more about the different and ever-evolving methods of publication, the La Jolla Writer’s Conference is the place for you.

Even in the midst of Hurricane Michael we had to push our through on this episode of A New Direction.  We lost power several times, but we reconnected and we still have an awesome show that I am convinced will help you!

Perhaps one of the most frequently asked questions I am asked is..."how do I start a business".  I am not always certain why I am asked that question so often, but I recognized that I need a real expert on buying and selling businesses to really give the best answer that could others, like perhaps yourself, find A New Direction in this area.

That Person is Jeff Snell, COO & Founder of Enlign Business Brokers and Advisors.  Jeff and his company Enlign have been a part of 100's of transactions representing businesses and their owners to help them sell or find the right business.  He and his company have been national recognized for their leadership in the area of Business brokerage.

In this episode of AND we ask questions such as "How does one start a business"

, "How much money does someone need", "What about buying an existing business", How much should one pay for an existing business", "Where should someone start when it comes to either

buying or starting a business".  "What about buying a franchise?", "What are the pros and cons of

buying a franchise business?"... and so much more!

If you have ever thought about starting your business this show is for YOU!

If you are in a business and you are thinking about how business brokerage works because you want to sell your existing business...this show is for YOU TOO!

If you are simply interested in business...yeah, this show is for you.

BUT WAIT THERE"S MORE!

In this episode we have bonus content!  That's right, just when you think the show is over, Jeff comes back and gives you tips on how to prepare your business for a storm.

 

Also I need to thank this week's sponsor.  The La Jolla Writers conference.

Life is full of challenges.  We all experience them.  At some point in our life we will experience a situation or situations or a circumstance or set of circumstances that will challenge us to the point that we feel that we cannot recover.  Or worse yet, we feel like this is the end.  Overcoming these challenges can become our biggest obstacle.

This week on  Episode 15 of  A New Direction my guest is Sascha Gorokhoff.  Sascha was born with Spina Bifida a rare disease that literally put a hole in his back and exposes the spinal column.  Not only that he also was diagnosed with water on the brain and was told he was going to have impaired cognitive functioning.  Oh wait there is more, he was also diagnosed at a young age that his kidneys were failing.  And is if that were not enough, his dad dies at the age of 16, his mother is diagnosed with Narcissistic Borderline Personality disorder and commits suicide.  That would be enough to put most all of us under the table and just want to call it quits.  Not Sascha.  Today he plays golf, ski's has multiple degrees, speaks multiple languages and oh by the way he wrote a book too!

Sascha has an amazing story of overcoming his circumstances and has a desire to share with the rest of the world.  Listen top this episode to find out how Sascha stayed motivated?  What are the important steps for yourself to overcome your own challenges?  How do your emotions play a role?  The power you have to choose.  And so much more!

Sascha's book The Leadership Journey for the New Millennials: Turning Tragedy into Triumph is not a book for only the young, it is a story for all ages and all stage of life.  You can pick up your copy by clicking on the book, or the link above.

If you would like to contact Sascha directly you can email him at:  [email protected]

Most people want to write a book.  Now that there is self publishing it seems like anyone and everyone can call themselves an "author".

However, just because you wrote a book doesn't mean you are making money with your book,  In Episode 14 of AND we interview Antoinette Kuritz Author, Publicist, Speaker, Co-Owner of Strategies Literary Development and Public Relations, (www.strategiespr.com) and Founder of the La Jolla Writer's Conference.  Antoinette talks to us about the real business of writing books and discusses the hard facts of what it takes to be successful.

She also discusses why your book probably is never going to be seen by a traditional publisher, why most people never sell more than 50 books, and the things you should know before you even consider writing a book.

With well over a million new books published last year (over 10 times the number just 5 years ago) … the growth of the book industry has also spawned the growth of less-than-expert-experts as well as out-and-out book-crooks. For over two decades, Antoinette Kuritz,  Book Developer, Publisher, Media Coach, Author, and Founder of the LaJolla Writers Conference, has made it her business to assist writers of all levels get their words into print while avoiding the rip-offs in the new world of traditional, electronic and self publishing.

In 2001, as a labor of love, she founded the annual LaJolla Writers Conference, paying it forward by teaching the Art, Craft, and Business of writing to aspiring and established authors of all levels. So, if, as the survey says, 80% of Americans believe they have a book in them, and almost anyone can now “publish” a book, what will it take to get your words out, and make them stand out?
