  • 314.New Process-New Possibilities-Creating Space in Your Life with Deborah Johnson
    Nov 19 2024

    There’s just never enough time! That is a phrase I hear often. Between juggling work, family, and personal commitments, it can be tough to find space to breathe, let alone focus on what truly matters to you. But what if you could create more room in your life, simply by changing how you approach tasks and routines? Implementing new processes can be a powerful way to unlock that freedom.

    This same principle applies to business, especially as an entrepreneur. When you design systems that work for you, you can reduce stress, increase productivity, free up your time and energy for additional activities and open up new possibilities for growth and enjoyment. Personally, I have put new processes and systems in place so my business keeps running when traveling or working remotely and I’ve tested that fairly thoroughly. Here, we cover why systems matter, identify areas to change, and design a process that will work for you.

    In business and marketing, "white space" refers to the untapped opportunities or gaps in the market where customer needs are not yet being met or where competitors are not actively operating. Linda Fanaras creates creative banding and data analytics to discover those white spaces.

    Identifying and leveraging white space can lead to innovation, new product development, or the creation of new market segments, offering businesses the chance to differentiate themselves and capture new revenue streams. In this podcast we cover why claiming white space is needed, the process and some successful examples.

  • 312.Empathy and Strategy-Leading with Heart into the New Year with Greg and Deb
    Nov 12 2024

    Empathy and strategy can be a powerful combination in leadership and in planning for a new year to work together to create an environment that is both people-focused and goal-oriented. Empathy allows leaders to understand the perspectives, challenges, and motivations of their team members, fostering trust and open communication. This is more important than ever with a workforce that has been given freedom to work remotely with a great deal of trust. When paired with strategic thinking and planning, this understanding enables leaders to design plans that not only achieve organizational goals but also align with the needs and well-being of their team.

    By integrating empathy with strategy, leaders can create a culture where people feel valued and motivated, while also driving the organization forward in a deliberate, thoughtful way. We discuss some of those strategies in this episode.
