Harmony In The Workplace

In day-to-day business, the goal is to generate enough profit that will allow the owners of the company to pay their employees and also pay themselves.
The only question is if the people that run the businesses will achieve those goals of making a profit the right way or the wrong way.
If an owner of a company only see their employees as a commodity, then they will not treat them right and that can lead to an unhappy workplace.
Examples would be not paying them for their worth or using their title to instill fear into their workers that will take out the free will out of them.
This is probably why there is a tension between the older generation of workers and the millennial workforce.
Most of the older generation are not willing to adapt to the new way that work is happening.
Like collaboration with fellow co-workers.
The question is “Can A Workplace Have Harmony?”
I believe a workplace can have harmony.
And companies are spending a whole ton of money to bring in consultants to teach about leadership and how to make sure that there is workplace harmony.
S. Chris Edmonds is one of those consultants who teaches leaders in companies about how to have a great workplace.
I had the opportunity to interview Mr. Edmonds about his work as a speaker, consultant and his latest book, “The Culture Engine” on “What’s The Word?

Life Is Like A Magic Caurosel

Sometimes things don’t always go the way we plan.
It is like we are on a roller-coaster.
When we have good experiences that will allow us to be more productive, we celebrate.
Also, we will have a whole lot of “friends” around us.
However, when the trials and tribulations happen to us, that is when we will know who our real friends are.
At the same time, those trials will also allow us to discover the skills that we can use to help others to be better people.
And if we don’t know what we want to do with our lives and figure out our destiny, then we can rely on life coaches to help guide us.
Karen Leeds realized early on that she was meant to be a life coach and entrepreneur and has helped a lot of people to be better people.
Karen is the founder of Life Coaching Magic and is the author of the forthcoming book, “Life’s Magic Carousel: How to Grab the Brass Ring Before The Music Stops” that is set to be out in May.
I had the opportunity to interview Karen to find out more about her coaching practice and how she came up with the title for her book.
You can listen to the interview here.
Hope you enjoy hearing Karen’s journey to becoming a life coach.

What if a person can make their marriage exciting?
Many would think that once they get married, life is over.
Well, Drs. Rob and Janelle Alex has busted that myth as they came up with a unique way to make the marriage more fun and exciting.
It is called, “Mission Date Night.”
It is like the married couple type of “James Bond adventures.”
I had the opportunity to interview this awesome couple recently on “What’s The Word?” on BlogTalkRadio to chat about the “Mission Date Night,” their podcast by the same name and how they decided to become entrepreneurs.

You might have an idea for a product or service that can change the world for the better.
When you share it with people like your friends or family, 9 times out of 10, they will tell you that it is impossible and that you should go for a job that will allow you to have a salary.
It happens especially when parents tell their college offspring to go for a major that will allow them to gain a fast track into getting a great entry-level job.
When you decide that you want to follow your dreams, endless possibilities awaits you.
The same people will tell you that you are crazy and that you are a dreamer because you did not go down the “safe” and established route.
If you feel that you are alone because you are following your dreams, don’t despair.
The reason being is that they have been people throughout history who dared to follow their vision and as a result, changed the world as we know it.
People like Henry Ford, Andrew Carnegie, Steve Jobs, the Wright Brothers, Bill Gates, etc.
And the best news is that they are still people today who have waken up to the reality that life is short and that they should go after their dreams.
That is what exactly what Joe Pardo did when he launched the Dreamer’s Podcast in May of 2014.
He interviews people who have dreams of either running a business, becoming a dancer, etc.
I had the honor of making a guest appearance on his podcast to share about how I started this website and also shared my dreams of spending a year on each continent of the world except for Antartica.
In return, Mr. Pardo shared on my show, “What’s The Word?” how he came up with the name of his podcast and his new book, “Joe Pardo’s 31 Life-Changing Concepts.”
You can listen to the interview here.
Even though, Mr. Pardo is not running an actual business, he is taking control of his destiny because of his podcast.
Now if he did not built his brand through the podcast, he would have been in a dire position like so many people who got laid off from their companies.
Layoffs are still happening as we speak.
According to the Houston Business Journal, Halliburton and Baker Hughes has cut thousands of jobs which included 350 in the state of Texas.
They claimed that it was not because of the upcoming merger of the two companies but the dropped cost of oil in the marketplace.
Sometimes, it is best if the circumstances leads to a person to follow their dreams and become either a freelancer, independent contractor, consultant, etc.
If you are the lucky ones who have not been laid off, but still have the desire to follow your dreams, then I would suggest to start your business on the side.
It will give you time to grow your business into a self-sustaining company and also make your dreams a reality.
