Job seekers claim to want it, employers promise to offer it. What if work-life balance is just an illusion? 

Let's rethink work-life balance. I challenge you to consider thinking about work-life balance with respect to the whole person, whether it’s you or your employees. Balance should be the goal, absolutely. But, I suggest attempting balance through the different aspects of one’s life working in unison, not being compartmentalized and held separate from one anther. The various areas of our lives are interdependent; there’s causation, there’s correlation. We don’t have a choice, that’s how it works. We can use this interdependence to our benefit to drive desirable results, or we can try to fight it and lose.

There is little dispute that recruiting & retaining talent is the greatest challenge facing business leaders today. And here’s the truth: No organization can grow faster than its ability to recruit and retain enough of the right people. Businesses are suffering right now, not because of a lack of customers, but due to a lack of labor and talent to serve those customers. 

Here's the April 2021 Jobs Report.

On Episode 15 of the #ResultsMatter Podcast, Mike is recording outside. Excuse the noise from the RecTeq 700 pellet smoker in the background. Look for a discussion on RecTeq's customer experience in a future episode. Today, we're talking about Crocs. You know... The ugly but super comfortable shoes. Let's explore! 

On this episode, Mike references Amazon when talking about customer experience and Crocs as a reminder to think differently, don't believe everything that you know, and embrace being wrong.

What ever happened to the Yellow Pages? AT&T might call their printed Yellow Pages "The Original Search Engine" but they never actually installed the engine.

Are you living in the world that was, the world that is, or the world that's going to be?

Episode 11: Daylight Saving Time. 

Yes, I know it's 'Daylight Saving Time' (not savings). So why did I say 'savings' over and over again during this episode? I have no idea  :-)   -MV

Imagine if we placed this same importance on every other hour in our day, week, month, and year. I mean, that’s what Daylight Saving Time’s real impact is - an hour. One hour. So, some perspective: If a single hour is so darn important, maybe we should act like it all the time. Time is our most valuable and only non-renewable resource.

Today, Mike is challenging business leaders, entrepreneurs, and sales professionals to stop trying to be your own teacher. Stop trying to learn from yourself. Stop trying to use lessons learned from your own experience to get you to the next level. Your own experience is a very slow and extremely limited teacher. You already know everything that you know. And, to take it a step further, you really shouldn’t believe everything that you know anyway!

The $15 per hour minimum wage debate has been brewing for the last decade. The federal minimum wage sits at $7.25 and hasn’t moved since 2009. Those who support more than doubling the federal minimum wage to $15 per hour, argue that the move would pull low-wage earners out of poverty. Some supporters of the $15 per hour minimum wage argue that increasing the national minimum wage will help reduce inequality. In Episode 06, Mike shares his take on this hot topic.

Censoring, Silencing, & Canceling in America. This is a business podcast, and yes, this episode is very politically charged! 

In this digital high-tech age, a lot of businesses nowadays rely on the big-tech infrastructure and platforms. It is difficult, if not impossible for most businesses to operate without an online presence. I’m okay with different points of view. We need different points of view. Conservatives and Liberals are supposed to keep each other from going off the deep-end. But we’re not supposed to hate each other. And we’re damn sure not supposed to censor, silence, and cancel each other! -MV
