TeeCast

👎 One of the main reasons I see businesses fail who hire and work with friends is that the company vision is missed in lieu of the comfort of how the friendship works. If you do not make tough decisions for the company based solely on the betterment of the company, you are destined to fail. Those tough decisions become tougher when a friend is on the line and has expectations you'd never have to cut their pay, change their position, or ask them to do something they never signed up for... What is YOUR experience working with friends or family❗❓

💡What College Degree Does the FBI Want❓ 😮Lord knows we need good people to get into law enforcement, and the FBI requires a Bachelor's degree. However, when determining what degree gives you an edge, 90-year-old educator Jim Siano, FBI (ret), offers wisdom and great perspective. 🌟

🇺🇲YOUR Generation Will Cause America to FALL❓😮
📕Nature and history dictate that we make it easier for each new generation. And as each new generation becomes softer, we set ourselves up to fall as world leaders.🌟❗

What are YOUR thoughts on this???

⭐What Teacher Made the Greatest Impact❓🤔
📖The great Dr. Opal Lee describes a teacher from her youth (and... she is 97 now) who profoundly impacted her - to the extent that Opal became an educator herself!

🤔WHAT Teacher inspired you and WHY?????🌟

Dr. Brian Dixon and I discussed how effective music can be in a therapeutic environment. He may not actively leverage it in his practice, but he DOES utilize it in his own life - as a singer. Music is magic. Tell me I'm wrong...

Working With FAMILY: 👍 or 👎
👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Investor Alex Geesbreght swears by working with family while others have had nightmare experiences. I have mixed feelings about it, but I would never recommend it to anyone.

However, this comment is hilarious and certainly supports his case FOR working with family❗

❓What are YOUR experiences❓

😲FACE IT - You're Inadequate❗
We all are inadequate. Even the most seemingly perfect people struggle with certain things. The objective is to overtly identify obstacles and focus on getting past them. Too many people spend their time covering inadequacies when they could get better in half the time if they faced reality with determination.

Danny Coulson, former assistant director of the FBI, tells the story of a man more than capable of making the famous Hostage Rescue Team—with one exception: He couldn't get himself to repel. But he acknowledged it, conquered it, and became a hero.

Tell me I am wrong...???

💡Do We Need OLD LEADERSHIP Ideas❓🕰️
⭐TeeCast guest Jim Soriano (FBI, ret.) explains why he feels J. Edgar Hoover was the best FBI LEADER.

Hoover was controversial, BUT, according to Siano, he laid out expectations clearly so agents knew how and when to perform.

✅This critical leadership trait still exists today but is often overlooked. Set expectations, and then let your people do what they do to accomplish common goals.💪

What do YOU think❓

🤔Why People Are QUITTING JOBS💼 Andrew Geesbreght, Co-founder of PRAX Leadership Academy, explains why people quit their jobs. These days, even more than ever, people are quitting—and without notice😡.

Do you agree with Andrew’s assessment - AND - Do you think it is OK to quit with no notice??????

Is Helping Others a Dying Practice❓(hint: yes.)
⭐DR. OPAL LEE describes her grandfather's demanding ways but includes the fact that he always insisted, as a matter of practice, that his family helps others.

Is this a dying practice in a culture of selfishness❓
(I think so)

Are FBI Agents Now BETTER Than Before❓
Jim Siano, FBI (ret.), explains how much training has advanced in the FBI these days compared to his time in the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s.

🤖A.I. vs. Human: WRITE a SONG 🎹
🎶 Michael Lee’s songwriting process is much like an AI’s—only slower and more human! Like AI, he blends creativity, inspiration, and refinement to craft his songs.

The difference (other than time)? His unique human touch, emotion, and soul bring his music to life. 🌟🎸

Scope Michael Lee’s full interview on the Uncommon Souls TeeCast

While working undercover, even fellow law enforcement officers do not know what you are up to. So when you witness a crime, you can’t blow your cover, so what do you do? Call the police!

When they answer and discover it is YOU calling, they wonder WHY THE HECK YOU AREN’T DOING SOMETHING ABOUT THIS YOURSELF?
What would YOU do?

At UNCOMMON SOULS, WE BELIEVE:
Whether it’s a passion, purpose, whiskey, or a song, when uncommon souls focus on what unites us, we find understanding - even in disagreement. And with understanding, we can celebrate differences in our plight to change the world for the better.

Placing The Right PEOPLE in the Right SEATS is 🔑One key concept emphasized in Gino Wickman's "Traction" is the importance of having the right people in the right positions within an organization. This means ensuring that employees are aligned with the company's values and in positions that best suit their unique skills and abilities.

Red Sanders, filmmaker, was on the TeeCast and explained how it helped him. I've found that this alignment is critical in my business and projects. It fosters a productive work environment, drives performance, and nails the company vision.
