Trustee Duties Annual Checklist

9/30/2020

 
Picture
Being a Trustee is more than just a job. Trustees have a fiduciary duty to act in the best interests of the beneficiaries and carry out the terms of the Trust. Unfortunately, many times we come across Trustees who have no idea what their duties are and don’t carry them out. This leads to personal liability for the Trustees and possible diminution of the Trust’s assets. Here is what the Trustee should do in the first quarter of each year (or now if these steps have never been taken before).

Leadership Versatility - Flex Your Leadership Style

9/24/2020

 
Picture
by Ken Warman, The Leader's Evolution
Effective leadership in the complex environment we face requires the use of a variety of leadership styles and the ability to know when a situation calls for a shift in or a different leadership approach. Leadership versatility allows leaders to be nimble, assessing the situation and shifting to a leadership style that will generate the desired results.  At ​The Leader's Evolution​, our approach builds leaders that understand the different styles and how to effectively pivot across them. We develop leaders that hone the skills necessary to succeed, no matter which style is being used. ​

Simply Taking Care of Sprains and Strains

SIMPLY TAKE CARE OF SPRAINS AND STRAINS: HOW TO USE THE R.I.C.E METHOD WHEN INJURED
Back when I was in high school I slipped off of a curb and fell. I was obviously not paying attention to where I was walking and wiped out. It hurt like hell and it began to swell right away. If you have ever sprained your ankle, you know your doctor will likely tell you to take care of it at home. He or she may, after examining your sprain, recommend the R.I.C.E method for injuries using the following steps.

Never Help the Prospect End the Interview

9/21/2020

 
By Cal Thomas, Sandler Training
What’s the least comfortable you’ve ever been during a discussion with a prospect? 

​We've all been on sales calls where things have gotten a little awkward. It is probably not difficult at all for you to recall a time when the prospect you were talking to was acting uninterested…or maybe even a little bit hostile. How did you respond? How would you respond if you found yourself in such a situation again?

Why It's Important to Know Where Our Food Comes From

9/18/2020

 
Picture
by MaryEllen Zung, Certified Holistic Health Coach, Lakeland Hills YMCA
​Is knowing where your food comes from really important? It’s hard enough deciding what to eat these days for good health with our friends and family telling us about their keto, low-carb, vegan, and paleo plans, or ‘lifestyle’s” as some describe.  Then there is the time it takes to plan, shop for local, fresh, organic foods, and cook healthy meals.

Are You Ready to Disrupt Aging?

9/18/2020

 
Picture
By MaryBeth Kane, Arbor Terrace
​The fact is we are living longer as a population globally. The question becomes, how do we age actively and healthfully? There are many myths and stereotypes about human aging and what the experience will look like for those transitioning to the golden years, also called the “Third Age” of senior adulthood. Experts predict that baby boomers will shatter the negative myths by disrupting the process of aging in some unexpected ways indicative of a bold new era for seniors.

​By John Allen Mollenhauer 
As time marches on and the impact of the COVID 19 pandemic continues and its practical impact is felt; today’s Change Hero Insight is to build your habits to re-build your house.  As we all come back from COVID 19, you may need to rebuild your “house” — your family life, your career, or business. Start with this: build your habits first. 

The future that will come will be based on every habit that’s in play in your life right now. ​

Leading a Team Virtually with Purpose & Resilience

9/9/2020

 
Picture
by Ken Warman, The Leader's Evolution
Leading a team can be one of the most challenging parts of a managerial position. The current pandemic has added complexity and has thrust us into a virtual environment which is here to stay. While working from home has benefits and has helped to keep many people safe, it does challenge the team leader in new ways. Without the proper leadership approach, a team will struggle and performance and engagement will drop. Adaptive leaders will reflect upon their leadership and flex to these new conditions. ​

Committed to Business, Committed to Each Other

9/1/2020

 
Fall 2020
​As many of us are enjoying the fall season at reduced-capacity festivals, farms and restaurants, I reflect on how these past six months have tested our mettle. Now more than ever, the commitment to our businesses is a testament to the economic strength of our county and region. 

While our behavior has changed, our support for one another has not. Our members have made extraordinary efforts to retain employees, patronize one another and donate to charitable organizations. While this crisis has created great opportunity for a number of our members, others suffered significant loss. You have demonstrated your commitment to each other in extraordinary ways, coming together and sharing your time, your best practices, creating new services, offering reduced rates and member deals and engaging in mastermind groups, including the Entrepreneur Roundtable, Not-for-Profit mastermind, Business Strategies and Tactics Forum for business owners and the recently announced Morris Chamber Mastermind to exchange ideas during this challenging time and beyond.  ​
