Episode 69 discusses Identifying Your Own Values with Paul ter Wal.

Paul Ter Wal and his consulting company Team ANDARE make healthy businesses better with the belief that happiness makes money. 

An organization expert with a lot of experience as a lawyer in the field of social security and employment law, Paul saw first-hand the ways that social security failed human beings.  He was surprised to learn that despite the millions of dollars and euros spent to support people when they become ill or disabled, nothing was invested to keep people employable and engaged.  He was disappointed that no one was taking the time to ask workers what they needed to live a good life; not a million dollar salary, but a fair salary and support in healthcare and wellbeing. 

22 years ago Paul left the legal side, and moved further into improving humanity.  Leading with his core values, Paul now establishes consulting engagements that help companies identify and truly live their own values.  He shows companies that when they see every employee's full potential, and facilitate them to achieve, absenteeism decreases while enthusiasm and productivity increases.

Clint Ladine is on a mission to help leaders utilize coaching techniques to unleash the power of their teams, optimize their leadership skills, and drive performance to new heights.  

As a leadership/success coach and former professional basketball player, Clint knows the difference between a bad coach and a good coach.  A bad coach is self-focused, believes that they are the only expert, and expects you to fall in line no matter what.  A good coach unlocks hidden potential, nurtures natural abilities, and encourages people to fly. 

To that end, he has written, Power Coaching, which many are calling a “must have”, in their leadership toolbox.  He is the owner of Successfully Coaching, a leadership coaching business whose mission is to help leaders overcome obstacles to achieving success.  He has also been featured on Fox, CBS, ABC, and NBC affiliated outlets. 

Clint’s mission began with a life changing encounter with coaching.  While in the midst of his career he was introduced to coaching, finding it to be transformative for him, his team, and his organization.  He quickly enrolled in a doctoral program to learn more about the psychology and methodology of coaching, and has since become a sought-after writer, author, and speaker of the subject of Leadership Coaching.

Employee Empowerment, for me, was one of the hardest things I have done but also one of the most rewarding.

When you have surrounded yourself with competent qualified people, you need to give them the tools to do their job and get out of their way.  Obviously, you need to monitor from time to time to make sure things are headed in the right direction.  You will be pleasantly surprised at what happens. 

 Employees need to have the latitude to make and fix their own mistakes, after all that is how a lot of us learn. 

 If you have ever been micro-managed, you will like and embrace employee empowerment.

It’s imperative and prudent to have a solid relationship with your Banker, CPA, and Attorney.  

Over the years I met with our banker on a regular basis, usually twice a year.  I had a very good relationship with our banker.  That helped significantly at times.

Prior to selling the company, we were with the same CPA Firm for over 30 years.  Like with our banker, this relationship became invaluable.  Their advice and professionalism were impeccable.  

Fortunately, we never got into a situation that required legal action.  The main attorney relationship was when I sold the business, they were referred by our CPA and were a perfect fit.  I am forever grateful for their help, knowledge, and professionalism.  Contrary to attorney jokes or stigma, there are some solid professional attorneys out there

Although not our favorite topic, Contracts are very necessary.  They state who is going to do what, the time frame, and typically for how much.  In my experience Contracts come into play when things don’t work out.  If everyone does what they say they will do, you really don’t look at the Contract again.  It’s when things don’t work out that Contracts are very important.
