In today's episode I'm sharing the audiobook version on my best selling book "Mastermind Dinners: Build Lifelong Relationships by Connecting Experts, Influencers, and Linchpins". So may think that I am "cutting into sales" by sharing this audiobook for free on the podcast, but I didn’t write this book for friends, fame, or financial reasons. I wrote it because I am living proof that your network is your net worth. To me, there is no better way to forge a strong network than to host Mastermind Dinners.

Jayson shares with us his story of going from making 22 times the national average income to over a quarter million dollars in cash debt. From there he went off to create his first mastermindtalks events which became the success it is today. 

Their tagline is "If you are the smartest person in the room, then you are in the wrong room."

Summary:

Design-oriented firms such as Apple and IDEO have demonstrated how design thinking can directly affect business results. Yet most managers lack a real sense of how to put this new approach to use for issues other than product development and sales growth. Solving Problems with Design Thinking details 10 real-world examples of managers who successfully applied design methods at 3M, Toyota, IBM, Intuit, and SAP; entrepreneurial start-ups such as MeYou Health; and government and social sector organizations including the City of Dublin and Denmark's The Good Kitchen.

Using design skills such as ethnography, visualization, storytelling, and experimentation, these managers produced innovative solutions to problems concerning strategy implementation, sales force support, internal process redesign, feeding the elderly, engaging citizens, and the trade show experience. Here they elaborate on the challenges they faced and the processes and tools they used, offering their personal perspectives and providing a clear path to implementation based on the principles and practices laid out in Jeanne Liedtka and Tim Ogilvie's Designing for Growth: A Design Thinking Tool Kit for Managers.

"The Miracle Morning for Entrepreneurs" Audio Excerpt

Episode 179: How To Sustain Excellence - The Best Answers from 178&nbsp;Conversations This is an episode unlike any other... I've listened through some of the best answers to the question: "What are the common characteristics/themes amongst those who have sustained excellence over an extended period of time?" We (my editor, Scott Donnell and me) pulled out some of the best, most useful answers and created an "all-star" Sustaining Excellence episode. I think you'll like it. I welcome all feedback via Twitter&nbsp;or you can&nbsp;send me an e-mail.  Episode 179: How To Sustain Excellence - The Best Answers from 178&nbsp;Conversations  Subscribe on&nbsp;iTunes&nbsp;&nbsp;or&nbsp;Stitcher Radio The Learning Leader Show  In This Episode, You Will Learn  #78 Kat Cole -&nbsp;A scale, a balance of 2 buckets: Courage &amp; Confidence + Curiosity &amp; Humility. “They are productive achievers vs destructive achievers”  #127 Adam Grant - “They are dedicated learners. What’s fascinating by them is no matter how much excellence they achieve, they are always raising the bar. The more they accomplish the more they expect of themselves. Curiosity is the starting point for all originality”  #107 Simon Sinek -&nbsp;“They have vision, they have charisma? I’m not so sure that’s true. They don’t need a Steve Jobs vision. &nbsp;One thing I’m comfortable saying is courage. &nbsp;It takes tremendous courage to stick to your values."  #117 Tim Urban -&nbsp;"The impact you make is the level of measurement for a leader. &nbsp;It's different than what's normal"  #86 Seth Godin -&nbsp;“They’ve made a choice”  #114 Cal Newport -&nbsp;“The leader respects how hard everything is that’s worth doing.” Everything’s harder than you think. Impactful contribution is really hard.”  #115 Amy Porterfield - “The first word that comes to mind is consistency… Followed mentors. All create consistent content and show up consistently. Have a drive to follow up  #42 Rob DeMartini -&nbsp;“To measure success you have to look at more aspects of their lives. &nbsp;What was I seeing that was consistent? 4 things: Naturally curious, do they want to see how things are working? Could it be different? If you’re curious, it opens up so much. Energy &amp; Optimism. Personal Awareness  #105 David Burkus -&nbsp;“I think there is a consistent dissatisfaction… I need to be proud of what I’ve done, but constantly frustrated that I’m not further along. &nbsp;That balance.”  #82 Dan Pink -&nbsp;“Curiosity, they follow their noses, especially if they know a lot of stuff. Generosity, I love the way you put it, sustaining excellence. Reasonably generous people. They don’t pull up the ladder when they get to the top. They are hardworking and conscientious, grit. Peter Drucker comes&nbsp;to mind"  #74 Tim Kight - “People who consistently perform. Intentional, purposeful, and constantly building skill.”  #77 Adam Braun -&nbsp;“3 things: Tremendously intrinsically motivated, integrity, surround themselves with people who play a level above them.”  #48 Cameron Herold -&nbsp;“Sense of vulnerability… Checked ego at the door. Realize they aren’t the smartest person in the room. Sense of curiosity.”  #122 Sarah Robb O’Hagan -&nbsp;“One of the biggest single things is curiosity, goes hand in hand with humility. They don’t ever feel like they’ve reached the top of the mountain.”  #98 Alison Levine -&nbsp;“Resilience more than anything else. Resilient about putting one foot in front of the other."  #68 Joey Coleman -&nbsp;“I think all leaders have 3 general things in common. 1) A growth and learning mindset. Constantly thirsting for knowledge and learning. 2) Gratitude, they recognize how lucky and blessed they are. Take time to appreciate the gifts and blessings in their lives. 3) Gentle with themselves  #108 Steven Kotler -&nbsp;“Ferocious about forward progress. &nbsp;Nothing mild about how they attack life....

28: The One thing every Franchisee & Franchisor needs to know with Cameron Herold

This episode is about turning your challenges into your calling. Today’s caller, Dale, is looking for guidance on how to reach out to clients to support a new coaching business. Dale’s unique gift is that he has schizophrenia. He wants to help families of people with schizophrenia to help them see their family member’s illness in a different light. Mental health disorders still have a stigma to them and Dale is an incredible example of someone who chooses to thrive in the face of both adversity and shame. Coaches will get a lot of value because we talk about reaching your target market and knowing the boundaries of your skill set. [For show notes go here: Christinehassler.com/episode187] The original definition of passion is suffering. Over time we evolved the word passion to mean something that we love. Making your challenges your calling is inspirational. As we move through our challenges, we accept them, we process them, and then we rise above them when we ask the question, “How can I use this to not only help others but to actually enjoy my life and the lessons, challenges, and opportunities I have created and that come to me in this lifetime?” Your challenge is your best asset because you are in the process. You know what it is like. You are more relatable and you can be in it with people. Don’t think you have to be perfect. Think about how the thing you judge the most about yourself could be your best asset. And when it comes to labels, diseases, or challenges in life, it is counterproductive to be ashamed or upset about any of those things. It only makes you play small and it makes you hide. It prevents you from doing the work you are here to do in the world. As long as your insecurities and shames and doubts are still in place it will be a block for you. Stand in who you are. Your challenges make you uniquely qualified to answer your calling and step into your greatest strengths. Where can you be an interpreter? How can you help people that may be struggling with something? Where can you turn your passion, aka your suffering, into a calling?  Unleashed is a program I teach through Mindvalley that is mentioned in the podcast. Consider/Ask Yourself: ● Do you have shame that is stopping you from making the unique difference you are here to make? ● Do you have a big dream or calling but you are overwhelmed by the ‘how’ part? In other words, you don’t know quite where to start. ● In listening to this call, does any part of you go into sympathy as he tells his story or the stories of how other families have been impacted by schizophrenia? ● Are you willing to use any challenges in your life to be an inspiration or do you tend to use them as excuses for why you do not have what you want or why you cannot take action? &nbsp; Dale’s Question: Dale would like guidance on how to start a coaching practice for families of those with schizophrenia. &nbsp; Dale’s Key Insights and Ahas: ● He was diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia. ● He wants to become a coach to help families of others diagnosed with schizophrenia. ● He has taken courses and studies coaching. ● He recognizes there is a stigma of shame around schizophrenia. ● His parents were supportive of him. ● He gives people hope. ● He has a unique perspective. ● His strengths are compassion, empathy, and his history. ● He wants to move from friend to coach. ● He’s a writer. &nbsp; How to Get Over It and On With It: ● He needs to stand for who he is and the truth of his journey. ● He needs to be creative the way he approaches clients. ● He should build a website and write articles about his journey. ● He should take the pressure off himself to have all the answers. ● He should let go of any feelings of inadequacy or insecurity. &nbsp; Takeaways: ● Don’t forget about the power of a referral-based business. ● Share your story. Write some articles, put them on a blog, and join Facebook groups. ● Let go of...

The ability to recognize, understand, and regulate emotions and feelings– commonly known as emotional intelligence – is a full-spectrum wave that helps us humans engage with others, and communicate non-verbally. This is also one aspect that AI and machines find difficult to emulate. In the age of the smart machine, an employee’s relevance will depend on various dimensions of emotional intelligence.
Lanny Cohen, Capgemini Chief Innovation Officer and Ron Tolido, CTO, Capgemini Insights & Data discuss the significance of Emotional Intelligence in the era of the smart machines.
