EPIC Physical Therapy.   There are a number of physical therapy places.

And I have been to several, but I have yet to find one where both the professional athlete and the people like you and I can receive the best treatment plan that will get us back doing before our injury.

EPIC PT is the only place I will go.  It is because they have everything from rehabilitation after major surgery to working with better nutrition.  They have the latest in cutting edge equipment and their certified staff of therapists are second to none.  Epic Recovery.  Epic results.  Check out EPIC Physical Therapy at www.EPICpt.com

Have you ever seen a “Barnstormer”? Those women and men who fly the planes at amazing speeds doing amazing stunts. Some of you may shake your head and say, “not me”. Others of you get excited about it and can understand the thrill. The truth is Barnstorming is like like owning your own business. Your business moves at aafast pace,  it experiences the twists and turns, and at times it can make your stomach turn inside out.  In Barnstorming, like your business, the risks are always there, but you choose to run your business anyway. In essence, you are a barnstormer. In this episode of A New Direction pilot and coach Harlan Hammack gets us back to the fundamentals of business so that we can launch, run, and grow your business in the midst of all the risk and twists and turns.

Harlan Hammack‘s book, “Barnstorming: A Pilot’s Guide to Growing Your Business” is a quick read filled with psychological and practical knowledge that is fundamental to any business regardless of the stage.  In between the chapters Harlan Hammack introduces us to some of the Barnstormers that took the imaginations of the minds of those watching and applies them to these practical principles.  From Networking to Growing your employees Barnstorming is one of those books that just gives us the uncommon, by giving us some common sense principles we can grow to new heights by.

There is no doubt as humans we were made to connect with each other.  Yet we typically overestimate our ability to connect.  We think to ourselves we are great connectors, when the truth we are superficial.  Sales people will talk about how they build “rapport”, but “rapport” is not true connecting, it is really a form of manipulation so that you can get what you want.  The truth is when we truly make a connection we build mutual identification and trust.  When we connect we truly find the person interesting whether they buy from us or not.  When we are truly building relationships we are focused on the relationship and nothing more.  We need help for sure!  That is why on this episode of A New Direction author Barry Moline helps truly CONNECT!

In Barry Moline’s book, “Connect! How to Quickly Connect  for Collaborate for Success in Business and life”  He gives you multiple ways that you can connect with others that will lead to powerful relationships that lead to opportunities for both your business and your life.  In this show we even talk about how sales people can use better questions that make them more likeable.  We also talk about some ice breakers that are commonly not used, how to deal with controversy and so much more!  Barry has been gracious enough to provide us with his free resources so CLICK HERE to get them.  And your copy of Connect!

Networking is truly more are than science.  There is a tremendous difference between those who are great networkers and those that work at networking.  There are many people, perhaps you who just dread the idea of networking, or perhaps are frustrated by it, or maybe you have felt that you have tried networking face-to-face, but you just didn’t get the results you wanted so you have given up on it.  Steven David Elliot Networking expert and chief visionary officer of Rockstar Connect (www.rockstarconnect.com) joins us on A New Direction (AND) to help you become a more successful networking professional by giving you the skills, motivation, and mentality to make any networking event a more successful one with his book Mingle: The Art of Face-to-Face Networking in the Digital Era.

The book Mingle is what is known as a AHA book.  It can be read in one sitting while drinking a cup of coffee or two and is 140 proverbs that Steven David Elliot discovered through trial and error to create perhaps the world’s largest networking events in the country.  He lives by them, I have witnessed them first hand, and while they may seem simple to read, the attention and intention to accomplish these proverbs will consistently be a challenge.  Mingle’s approach is counter-intuitive.  While most people go to networking events to try to get business, Steven’s approach is about truly giving first, with no expectations, and over the course of time the power of reciprocity takes hold and more business and referrals come your way.  Steven also demonstrates how creating your own networking event leads to what we call in psychology as the “mere-exposure effect”.   Every person should read Mingle: The Art of Face-to-Face Networking in the Digital Era., read it often, read it right before you go to a networking event and hand it to every person on your team.

Yesterday is not today…well that’s obvious.  So why do we believe that so many of yesterday’s leadership principles will still be effective today?  The fact is when it comes to work attitudes have changed.  Jobs are plentiful and when people do not like their boss, manager, or CEO, they just leave.  This costs the business massive amounts of money.  At some point we need to look at the lowest common denominator of employees exiting…the leader.  The days of “it’s my way or the high way” are over if you want to survive in business today.  The fact what people want from today’s leaders is to know that their leader actually cares.

In this episode of A New Direction (AND) author and leadership expert Michael Bianco-Splann discuss his book Conscious Leadership:  7 Principles to Change Your Business and Change Your Life.  We start by analyzing the most important piece to the puzzle and that is bringing the authentic you to your leadership.  If you are loved and cared for by others…why is that not the same person leading the company?  Why are often two different people?

Michael Bianco-Splann goes on to touch on such topics as being a better and more active communicator.  Taking Risks.  Servant Leadership.  How can we expect employees to care for customers if we do not care for them, Uncovering Myths when it comes to getting closer to your employees and associates and more!   We also learn one of the most powerful principles through out Conscious Leadership…it is our choice.  And that choice is going to take both courage and risk.  Do you have what it takes to truly be a Conscious Leader and employ a game changing attitude and behavior Conscious Leadership.

Technology, social media, phone apps, Alexa, Siri, Go Google, Artificial Intelligence, there is so much coming at us.  When it comes to our business…what do we do?  Which one or ones do we choose?  If any? What is going to give our business the competitive edge?  How much is going to cost?  What can I afford?  What is really going to make a difference?  The questions are endless.  And it may leave you feeling overwhelmed, helpless, hopeless and over matched.  What is the answer as we enter into the next decade?  We are so focused on technology in today’s world we have perhaps overlooked Occam’s Razor.  That is the most simplest answer sits right before us.  Not that it is easy, but it is staring us right in the face.  You feel it, I feel it, your customer wants it.  What is it?  A real relationship.

In this episode of A New Direction Best Selling Author John R. DiJulius opens our eyes to the research and examples of the one thing that will compete and overcome any technology.  The quality and depth of our relationships with our past, current, and future customers.  The fact is there is no app to develop a relationship.  Alexa doesn’t really care about your family, occupation, your recreational joys, or your hopes and dreams.  Only people can do that.  As John DiJulius explains in his outstanding book “The Relationship Economy:  Building Stronger Customer Connections in the Digital Age”  people want to be in relationships, but not temporary ones, not ones with the idea of gathering business, but ones that are real, genuine, authentic and meaningful.

As technology has increased and surrounds us the very thing that will separate your business from every other will be how well you can truly make your customer “feel” special.  And “The Relationship Economy” and John DiJulius takes a microscopic and example filled approach to helping you make your business a difference maker with people.  Here is a really simple question:  Are you a business that people love?  Sounds awkward when you ask it, but think about the businesses you truly love.  They are the ones you are loyal to, the ones that you keep going back to, the ones that make you feel special, important, provide value, and the one try to convince your friends to use.  If your were the kind of business that people loved…what would that do for your bottom line?  That is the Relationship Economy and how it will change your business.  Thank you for listening to the show, and please share it with your friends.  Also, I would love to hear from you about the show you can always reach me at [email protected].
