You are not welcomed… This sentence was rarely said directly to me, but it was certainly implied. You are in the wrong place. Over “there” is more suited to you. The second and third sentences were usually said to me, and my typical response was a quizzical look or a silent retreat. The moment I was introduced to academic socialization (aka nursery school and kindergarten), I realized I did not fit in, nor was I especially eager to fit in. I simply wanted to engage. My approach, as taught to me by Mother, was respectful, kind, and gentle. I did not want to overpower anyone yet somehow, my exuberance for engagement (an only child quirk) came through. I thought to myself, I guess I will have to build my own world. It will be a world where everyone is acknowledged, understood, accepted. And so, I did. It is a world encased in a rhodium circle. It is one of the rarest and most valuable precious metals. Rhodium is a noble metal that imparts an extremely bright and hard-wearing finish when applied as plating. It is a very rare, silvery-white, hard, corrosion-resistant transition metal, a member of the platinum group. The most encountered examples of rhodium plating are the finishes applied to white gold jewelry to enhance, protect, and preserve the luster of the pieces. This is like what our clients experience. They are enhanced, protected, and preserved in their transformed luster. I based my foundational theory for creating The Advantage Galaxy on this definition. The Rhodium Circle Theory?? Let’s simplify this: ?? If ever you feel not welcomed… ?? Or you are in the wrong place… ?? Or over “there” is more suited to you… ?? Perhaps “there” is where you feel you are now. This is the same place we will be for you. Welcome to your new world. #Business #Leadership #ManagementConsulting #Startup #ProjectManagement

How do you effectively execute an Organizational Fitness component within your overall value architectural plan? Make contribution goals more important than achievement goals. Data shows that companies that prioritize contribution over traditional (status quo) metrics see a significant improvement in performance. This starts at the top, with leaders who are held accountable for their contributions to the organization's Purpose, Core Behaviors, and Mission. Firing a senior leader who isn't contributing sends a powerful message to employees. What the organization stands for is messaged with crystal clear clarity. #OrganizationalFitness #LeadershipDevelopment #Business #Leadership #ManagementConsulting #ProjectManagement

THE 3 IRRESISTABLE COMPONENTS OF A DISCOVERY SESSION How do the consultants that “Live in A Perpetual Cycle of Profitability?” conduct their discovery sessions? They leverage the three ICDs (Irresistible Components of a Discovery session). What are the 3 Irresistible Components of a Discovery Call? 1.?????A Psychological Circle of Trust 2.?????The Three “E” Agenda 3.?????A cup of “T.E.A.” Let’s discuss… ?? A Psychological Circle of Trust Employing the highest levels of subject matter expertise (intellect) with a command of human ingenuity (emotional intelligence) will create the best environment for challenging, delicate, and open conversations. The client’s investigation of an organization prior to a Discovery session will generate those feelings necessary to feel safe with the consultant. ?? The Three “E” Agenda Happy prospects are created because they have received, prior to the session, the Three “E” Agenda, tailored to their industry, function, and role. The agenda is intended to entertain, educate, and engage. This type of agenda incites security and stability for the prospect. It is the dressing of ICD number one. ?? A cup of “T.E.A.” Who doesn’t love refreshments? We believe all prospects and clients enjoy a cup of T.E.A. when they are in a Discovery session. They are drinking from a cup of trust, expertise, and authority. This ICD further validates ICD number one. This method is part of the fourth Pillar (Demand Creation and Generation) of the 7 Pillars of Business Creation and Transformation. Do you believe you could reduce cycle time to secure and extend business by as much as 50%?

The Noah Rule, as quoted from Warren Buffet is simple yet profound: “Predicting rain doesn’t count, building an ark does.” Do you ever feel like Noah? He was being laughed at while he built his ark. Almost everyone thought he was crazy. After a period, many simply ignored him. He kept going. He did not stop. Sometimes they would stop by to react or comment, but mostly, they ignored him. It was a tough road for him and his family. He had a vision that was given to him. He personified it by building a massive vessel. He didn’t pay much attention to those ridiculing him. ?? He KNEW he MUST build this vision. ?? He KNEW where he needed to go. ?? He KNEW he was going to go to a world where there would be peace, respect, kindness. He would end up in a world where he and his family would “Live in A Perpetual Cycle of Profitability” ? It is an epic and iconic story. Keep building your ark. And if you feel ignored, come visit with us… we are paying attention. #Startup #Entreprenuer #Business #Leadership #ManagementConsulting #ProjectManagement
