The Culture Matters Podcast

Our very own Jay Doran is back again with another dose of culture chat and today is all about building that thriving culture everyone wants in their business.  Is there really a secret to getting that culture everyone is seeking or is it a series of little things to ensure your company culture is hitting on all cylinders?  Jay is here to answer that very question on this episode of The Culture Matters Podcast.

On this episode of The Culture Matters Podcast, it is time for part 23 of our ongoing series where our very own Jay Doran discusses his book, Thirty Days of Thought, and goes through the process right alongside our listeners.  Today's discussion zeroes in on our inability to know what's going on in the minds of those around us.  Whether those people are our perceived enemies, our friends, or someone with whom we've had limited interactions, we can never truly know what's going on in their heads no more than they can know what's in ours.  We're going really deep today which is exactly what Thirty Days of Thought is for.

"The main characteristics shared by people who are HIGHT on business success are: eased in risk-taking behaviors, desire for immediate gratification, Attention Deficit Disorder, adventurous or thrill-seeking, neuroticism or high levels of sensitivity or nervousness, anxiety or depression, obsessive or compulsive behavior, high intelligence, always wanting more, limit busters. Do you relate to any of these?"The founder of 20/20 Vision for Success and author of Finding Honor: The Journey to Truth, Christine Beckwith, is back on the show today talking about her new book, High - Selling is a Drug.  Our discussion today focuses on chapter three, "Addicted".  Christine and Jay are going through what it means to use addictive personality traits in positive ways leading to wealth and security, how leadership changes in times of success versus times of struggle, and why people who are successful are able to take negatives and turn them into positives.  As always, Christine is bringing the heat of this episode of The Culture Matters Podcast.

Jay Doran is back again today with another deep dive into the culture pool.  Today, Jay is talking about the power of listening and why leaders should always be listening to those around them.  Whether it is advisors, employees, or coaches, it is always important for leaders to hear the things that others have to say and to incorporate what they hear into their plans moving forward.  Jay is on his game today on this episode of The Culture Matters Podcast.

It's not surprise that we aren't going to get along with everyone all the time.  In the workplace, these conflicts can lead to production issues as well as disabling the culture that has been cultivated.  In this episode of The Culture Matters Podcast, Jay Doran discusses ways to navigate these tricky situations and to make sure that they are squashed before they have the chance to become larger issues.

In a special episode of The Culture Matters Podcast, our very own Jay Doran is taking a few minutes to discuss ways to improve your scheduling.  Red, yellow, and green mean different things for your day and it's important that you end your days with a lot more green than anything else.  This episode is all about productivity, so pay attention, take notes, and become more efficient.

On this episode of The Culture Matters Podcast, it is time for part 22 of our ongoing series where our very own Jay Doran discusses his book, Thirty Days of Thought, and goes through the process right alongside our listeners.  Our topic of discussion of the day is procrastination and how procrastination is one of the most powerful things in the world as far as making sure your business fails.  You may not always want to get the work done, but waiting until the last minute will almost guarantee mistakes and not providing the best job you can do.  We hope you enjoy this discussion with the one and only Jay Doran.

Our very own Jay Doran is back again to discuss another important culture-related topic and that topic today is accountability.  It is easy to lose the importance of accountability at all levels of a company, especially when work is coming in quickly and needing to go out even quicker.  Jay is here to discuss that accountability should be placed high on all priority lists to ensure that the culture is positively affected.  Hold yourself and your employees accountable and ensure that your culture is always moving forward in a positive way.

Founder of Big Think, advisor, consultant, and true mortgage professional Ruth Lee is joining the show again today, but this time she is turning the mic around and interviewing our very own Jay Doran on a myriad of different subjects.  Ruth and Jay are getting into some of the people throughout history whose stories have inspired Jay in his endeavors, some of the early days of Culture Matters and where some of the ideas and motivation came from, and what continues to drive him to help others be the best versions of themselves they can be.  We're peeking behind the curtain a little bit and we couldn't think of a better person to keep this culture train rolling than the one and only Ruth Lee.

On this episode of The Culture Matters Podcast, it is time for part 21 of our ongoing series where our very own Jay Doran discusses his book, Thirty Days of Thought, and goes through the process right alongside our listeners.  The topic for the day is one that everyone knows all too well: exhaustion.  Jay talks about pushing through that exhaustion when things need to get done because, at the end of the day, only you can get yourself where you need to go.  If you're tired, perk up, and enjoy this episode of The Culture Matters Podcast.
