s3e1 - Keith Phillips - The Path from 1200 to 12,000

This month Jim talked with Keith about building hours, building teams and setting goals in the midst of our current market craziness. It is always interesting to hear what Keith would do if you put him in a branch - enjoy!

s2e5 - Grit Series - Diana Wolfe

This month we will hear from Diana Wolfe, regional manager of the North TX region. Diana started
with Onin in 2005 when we opened the Terrell branch. Over the last 15 years, she has grown this region
to 8 offices and just under $30 MM in annual revenue.

At the end of 2021 Diana transitions to a new role with National accounts, making room for the next
generation of leadership to build on her legacy in North Texas. This release is an homage to a woman
who put us on the map in greater Dallas.

In this interview, we cover a lot of ground from Diana’s humble beginnings growing up poor in rural TX,
her wanderings, mistakes and the eventual revelation that she needed to believe and invest in herself.
In this interview, you see Diana’s toughness as well as her heart. She is a gritty woman – enjoy.

s2e4 - Grit Series - Jonathan Spidle

In this grit interview, Jim sat down with Jonathan Spidle, our VP of National Accounts. Jonathan started our national accounts program as a solo act in 2011 with about $2 MM under management. National Accounts has been a major growth driver over the last 10 years. The team has grown to 8 and the program this year will claim around $115 MM in annual business. 

s2e3 - Aren't We all Addicted to Something?

This month Jim sits down to chat with former IBM executive, now addiction recovery Champion Steve Ward. In this podcast, we learn that addiction is simply a habitual behavior that we do, in spite of the fact that we know it is not good for us. With that as our working definition, we must admit that the vast majority of us wrestled with addiction to varying degrees. From anger, to control to drug addictions, while some addictions are more impactful than others, life is always better on the other side of recovery. Steve offers advice and encouragement on how to identify and overcome addictive behavior.

s2e1 - The Coach

Welcome to the 2nd Season of Powercast!!!

 

In this first episode, Jim interviews Su Thomas, an executive coach, and together they explore fascinating topics like Neuro-Linguistic Programing and how to create tactics and strategies to help drive personal success. Join Jim and Su as they crack open some very common situations and learn how to arm yourself with the tools you might not have realized you've been looking for.

07 - Targets Part 2

Jim asks us to rise to the challenge of doing the impactful work and come to this episode not having skimped out on our homework. You should have 16 fact maps completed: 4 for body, 4 for being, 4 for balance, and 4 for business. If you don’t know what those are, go back and listen to Part 1 in Episode 6.

 

In Part 1, we talked about the first phase: to stop lying to ourselves and start telling the truth. Did you find relief in waking up to your own reality?

 

In Part 2, we’re going to spend some time thinking about what exactly we want out of life, otherwise we’ll be stuck on the hamster wheel… working hard but not really accomplishing much of anything. 

 

Are you ready to be real about your weaknesses and get deliberate about raising your standards?

06 - Targets Part 1

We’ve all heard the phrases “An intentional life is a rich life” and “When you fail to plan, you are indeed planning to fail.” While these may not be the most hashtaggable truths you’ve ever read, it’s important to understand the substance behind them. 

On this episode of Powercast, Jim breaks down the meaning of these taglines and introduces us to a framework that we can use in our own lives. The framework requires us to be honest with ourselves about the direction our lives are headed and then provides us with the tools required to set goals and meet them, ultimately leading us to the success we desire. 

The truth is, there is no one secret to hitting your targets. Success comes down to the intention in your daily decisions and the discipline of internal truth and self-awareness. 

 

We put together a fact map worksheet, like the one Jim discusses the episode. HERE is a link!!
