Owning Our Behavior, Without A Mortgage
Join Bill and Mike on their Sober Not Mature Podcast as we laugh, use a little off color language, and talk about many aspects of recovery:
Video: Are you accountable as an entrepreneur?
Many of us own a business so that we can maximize our flexibility. While a business can offer that, more often we need to be accountable in order to get to the ultimate goals we have for our business and ourselves. In this video I talk about three ways I think entrepreneurs need to be accountable in their business, so that they can get what they want.
Video: What should I do if I suspect I have an employee with a problem with alcohol?
As a business owner or CEO, there is a good chance you will encounter an employee that has a problem with alcohol. Alcohol is the most common legal drug in the world. At least 5% of adults suffer from Alcohol Use Disorder. In this video, I describe the things you can do as the leader of your company if you suspect one of your employees has a problem with alcohol or other substances.
Video: What’s the role of an established CEO?
Being a CEO of an established company with 10, 20, 50, or 100 employees means you are constantly encouraging others. As CEO you have to take responsibility for Vision and Strategy, including where your biggest markets are going to be. In an established company your role is primary focused on making the people who report to you and all the rest of the employees in your company successful.
Doing It All Yourself
Things were tense onboard Van Kedisi. The four of us had sailed that morning from Los Christianos on the island of Tenerife. We were approaching San Sebastian on the island of La Gomera, Christopher Columbus’ launching point for sailing across the Atlantic Ocean. All four of us onboard were working together to spot the entrance channel and the tiny opening to the harbour as we passed massive ferries on the commercial dock. On a sailboat you all have to work together because your lives depend on it. In this instance grounding out on a rock or hitting the breakwater would not likely have cost us our lives, but it would have done serious damage to Van Kedisi scuttling our well laid plans to sail across the Atlantic together.
