Today we are diving into an important Conversation - How Seeking and Speaking the Truth about Racism Can Radically Transform Individuals and Organizations. In this episode we are afforded the incredible opportunity to have Dr. Robert Livingston (Social Psychologist, Author, Lecturer) join us to discuss the science underlying bias and racism. How can you become part of the solution? In the wake of the social unrest of 2020 and growing calls for racial justice, many business leaders and ordinary citizens are asking that very question. This book provides a compass for all those seeking to begin the work of anti-racism. In The Conversation, Robert Livingston addresses three simple but profound questions: What is racism? Why should everyone be more concerned about it? What can we do to eradicate it?

For some, the existence of systemic racism against Black people is hard to accept because it violates the notion that the world is fair and just. But the rigid racial hierarchy created by slavery did not collapse after it was abolished, nor did it end with the civil rights era. Whether it’s the composition of a company’s leadership team or the composition of one’s neighborhood, these racial divides and disparities continue to show up in every facet of society. For Livingston, the difference between a solvable problem and a solved problem is knowledge, investment, and determination. And the goal of making organizations more diverse, equitable, and inclusive is within our capability.

Livingston’s lifework is showing people how to turn difficult conversations about race into productive instances of real change!

Dr. Livingston joins NEXT Academy Co-Creators Chad Jones & Cody Phillips as they discuss “The Conversation” and pull out leadership lessons that they feel can help contractors create a competitive advantage by utilizing Livingston's framework.

IMΛGIПΣ

Today's #MondayMorningMastery with Cody Phillips talks about the critical importance of #visualization. Pause and #imagine what you want in your life. The human brain doesn’t know the difference between something you vividly imagine and something that’s real. Stop and imagine your perfect day, your perfect moments —imagine it, visualize it, see it, feel it, believe in it, and then work daily for it.

Today's #MondayMorningMastery with Cody Phillips discusses the “Broken Window Theory” and warns of #complaceny pitfalls. You have to guard against lowering your own standards. When you’re at the mountaintop of your personal and professional life, you must be maniacally focused on the inevitable pull to “coast” or “take it easy.” You have to be vigilant in this approach or you will be restarting what you worked so hard to build in the first place.

Today's #MondayMorningMastery with Cody Phillips tells the story of Michael Phelps and his Coach Bob Bowman and the true power of #visualization. Michael would train from an early age to "watch the videotape" a visualization practice where he would envision the perfect race. This technique came into play in the most dire of circumstances during the 2008 #Olympics in Beijing. To see the outcome, to picture every action you will perform in order to arrive there, to rehearse it again and again, to imagine the obstacles and opposition and how you will overcome them, to allow your mind to visualize what might be and how you will get there it’s not just for athletes and sporting endeavors. It’s for you listening and watching today. To get where you want to go in 2022, you need to first visualize it. You can start this practice TODAY! 🏊‍♂️

Today's #MondayMorningMastery with Cody Phillips contains three awesome formulas to help catapult you to greater #success in 2022. The 20-20-20 Formula is an unreal way to kick off the first hour of your day, the 90/90/1 Rule is the perfect setup for a consistent and powerful first 90 minutes of your work day, and finally the 60-10 Method discusses the importance of "work to rest" ratios...the importance of recovery throughout your day to reach optimal performance. These lessons come from one of my favorite authors and thought leaders...Robin Sharma.

If this episode peaks your interest, we highly recommend checking out Robin’s best selling book the 5am Club 👉 https://www.amazon.com/AM-Club-Morning-Elevate-Life/dp/1443456624.

Today's #MondayMorningMastery dives into the #Pixar Classic "InsideOut" and the profound takeaways we can all utilize in our day to day journey.  The message I loved from the movie is this: an emotion is never just one thing.   If you’ve been angry you’ve been happy. If you have love then you know fear. If you feel sadness then you’ve experienced joy.  

Just keep moving forward...that emotion you crave is right around the corner.

Today we are diving into Never Enough - Living a Life of Excellence, Agility and Meaning by Mike Hayes, former commanding officer of US Navy Seal Team 2. In today’s episode we are afforded the incredible opportunity to have Mike join us to help weave some of these concepts into the fabric of the Construction Industry. To the listeners out there…this will be a heavy note taking episode. Mike has lived a lifetime of once-in-a-lifetime experiences. He has been held at gunpoint and threatened with execution. He’s jumped out of a building rigged to explode, helped amputate a teammate’s leg, and made countless split-second life-and-death decisions. He’s written countless emails to his family, telling them how much he loves them, just in case those were the last words of his they’d ever read. Outside of the SEALs, he’s run meetings in the White House Situation Room, negotiated international arms treaties, and developed high-impact corporate strategies.

Over his many years of leadership, he has always strived to be better, to contribute more, and to put others first. That’s what makes him an effective leader, and it’s the quality that he’s identified in all of the great leaders he’s encountered. That continual striving to lift those around him has filled Mike’s life with meaning and purpose, has made him secure in the knowledge that he brings his best to everything he does, and has made him someone others can rely on.

In Never Enough, Mike recounts dramatic stories and offers battle- and boardroom-tested advice that will motivate readers to do work of value, live lives of purpose, and stretch themselves to reach their highest potential. Today Mike is the chief digital transformation officer at VMware.

Mike joins NEXT Academy Co-Creators Chad Jones and Cody Phillips as they discuss “Never Enough” and pull out leadership lessons that they feel can help contractors create a competitive advantage by utilizing Excellence, Agility and Meaning! This book is #AWESOME 🔥🔥🔥

During this week's #MondayMorningMastery, Cody Phillips discusses the importance of how you phrase things. The weight that your words cary could be life changing.

During this week's #MondayMorningMastery, Cody Phillips discusses a conversation that he recently had with an older gentleman about the importance of owning a pair of brand-name, Converse All-Star sneakers when he was in 8th grade. What does this have to do with leadership you ask? What lessons can we take from this? You see, as we go through life, the stakes get MUCH higher than shoes. 👟➡️🚘💵🏠

Everyone is constantly trying to keep up with that "Instagram Image." 📲Unfortunately, this can transfer from not only what we BUY, but with who we ARE; goals we choose to pursue, people we associate with.

This week, Cody challenges you to place your identity in who YOU are INTERNALLY. Don't get stuck in the lifelong comparison game.

Rich Diviney has more than 20 years of experience as a Navy SEAL Officer. He completed more than 13 overseas deployments, achieved multiple leadership positions (including the Commanding Officer of a Navy SEAL Command), and since retirement in early 2017, has worked as a speaker, facilitator, and consultant with the Chapman & Co. Leadership Institute and Simon Sinek Inc.

During Rich’s time as the officer in charge of training for a specialized command, he reworked the selection and assessment program to identify key attributes rather than just skills. This allowed him and his cadre to more effectively, and more constructively, explain the success and failure of candidates. Most importantly, it allowed them to put together the highest performing team possible.

Additionally, he spearheaded the creation of a directorate that fused physical, mental, and emotional disciplines. He led his small team to create the first-ever “Mind Gym” that helped special operators train their brains to perform faster, longer, and better in all environments — especially high-stress ones.

Using the principles of this program, Rich has been able to work with more than five thousand business, athletic, and military leaders to teach leadership and optimal performance. And now, he’s put all that information into his new book, The Attributes: 25 Hidden Drivers of Optimal Performance. By reading this book, you’ll discover how you fit inside a team, show up for others, handle stress, challenge, and uncertainty, and how you can master your attributes for success.

Today, Rich joins NEXT Academy Co-Creators Chad Jones and Cody Phillips as they discuss “The Attributes” and pull out leadership lessons that they feel can help contractors create a competitive advantage by utilizing and understanding these attributes! This book is #AWESOME 🔥🔥🔥

Intelligence is usually seen as the ability to think and learn, but in a rapidly changing world, there's another set of cognitive skills that might matter more: the ability to rethink and unlearn. In our daily lives, too many of us favor the comfort of conviction over the discomfort of doubt. We listen to opinions that make us feel good, instead of ideas that make us think hard. We see disagreement as a threat to our egos, rather than an opportunity to learn. We surround ourselves with people who agree with our conclusions, when we should be gravitating toward those who challenge our thought process. The result is that our beliefs get brittle long before our bones. We think too much like preachers defending our sacred beliefs, prosecutors proving the other side wrong, and politicians campaigning for approval--and too little like scientists searching for truth. Intelligence is no cure, and it can even be a curse: being good at thinking can make us worse at rethinking. The brighter we are, the blinder to our own limitations we can become.

Today, Josh Bone (Electri International Executive Director) joins NEXT Academy Co-Creators Chad Jones and Cody Phillips as they discuss “Think Again” by Adam Grant and pull out leadership lessons that they feel can help contractors create a competitive advantage by utilizing the ability to RETHINK! This book is #AWESOME 🔥🔥🔥

Is your company in the midst of the Predictable Crises of Growth...Of Overload? Of Stall-Out? Of Free Fall?

Why is profitable growth so hard to achieve and sustain? Most executives manage their companies as if the solution to that problem lies in the external environment—find an attractive market, formulate the right strategy, win new customers.

But when Bain & Company’s Chris Zook and James Allen, researched this question, they found that 85% of the challenges to growth are internal—proliferating processes and bureaucracy, loss of accountability, and increasing distance from the front lines, to name a few. More crucial is their finding that companies experience a set of predictable internal crises, at predictable stages, as they grow. If not managed properly, these crises can stifle even the healthiest company’s ability to grow further—and actively lead it into decline.

Today, NEXT Academy Co-Creators Chad Jones and Cody Phillips attempt to pull out leadership lessons that they feel can help contractors create a competitive advantage through rediscovering their Founder's Mentality and give actionable steps to re-establish it within your organization. This book is #DYNAMITE 🔥🔥🔥

🎅⚠️ No Dumping Zone ⚠️🎅 So many #frustrating things happen to each and every one of us weekly. This year it may feel overwhelming. Your family member comments on your weight, your Amazon package is missing, whatever it may be...you should never dump those frustrations onto others.

Too many times, we feel as if WE are on the receiving end of our peers' bad days.

During this week's #MondayMorningMastery, Cody Phillips discusses how to remain yourself when someone has decided to take their stressful day out on you. He references David J. Pollay and The Law Of The Garbage Truck by stating, "You can't take it personally, it has nothing to do with you. Just smile, wish them well and move on." 👋 👋

This holiday season make sure that you are not allowing others to bring their negativity ON TO YOU❗️Hold on to YOUR #POWER. Stand #STRONG and #SMILE in the face of adversity. 💪🏼

Attack the week ahead, own your life, and #BeNEXT.

"Over the later parts of my life I’ve run into scenarios or situations that have challenged me to handle #pressure. These situations have revealed a stunning truth...I feel and subsequently handle pressure much differently now than when I was younger. You know the exact feeling I’m talking about. A feeling of unease in its kindest moments or great despair and panic in its worst. If that’s you…I offer you hope today. A Hope Filled Garden Hose!!! I turned around my life when I began to view these situations through this lens and I’m hoping that you too will find some peace and freedom in this understanding." - Cody

I had a participant of this years NEXT Academy class write me an email and they explained how they were struggling with the climate of our country, the general sense of unease that permeates every layer of our being right now…they were feeling a universal sense of dread. They’re hurting. They’re scared. Just like many of you. They’re struggling trying to process all of the noise while still trying to be a leader within their household. Their company. Their community.  They asked me, "What do I do?" Now that's a question with some weight behind it! Listen to this week's episode for my response as I share a three pronged approach that may help you if you're struggling with these same thoughts. I hope you find great value in today’s episode.

Hi everyone... Welcome to Monday Morning Mastery powered by The NEXT Academy - Building Construction Leaders for What Comes NEXT. As always I hope this finds you ready to attack the week ahead. My five year old likes to go to the "Tool Store." He and I were on the way there, listening to some tunes and out of nowhere, he asked me, “Dad are you scared of heights?” Now he’s heard me over the years explain my dislike for them so he has a pretty good idea how I’m going to answer. I said, “I’m not scared of all of them but as you know, I don’t love them either.” His reply was fantastic. It made me consider how often I view situations in a less than optimal manner. A 5 year old point of view was just what I needed to hear. You can tell yourself any story you want about your future. Why not tell one that creates positive anticipation and confident action? Why not look out from the mountain top and see the beauty? I hope you find great value in today’s episode. Don’t ever stop chasing to #BeBETTER.

No Blaming, No Complaining, No Defending with Excuses. I try to live a life with 🚫NO B.C.D.🚫 A life filled with NO BDC is the ultimate life of self ownership. Let's be honest...the best version of you, does NOT involve Blaming, Complaining & Defending. The best version of you takes ownership and doesn't use excuses. No one is exempt: Either Respond with Discipline or Blame, Complain, Defend. One wins. One loses. Every time. Every moment, you have the choice where you give your power-to things that rob you of your spirit or things that build your spirit. You have that CHOICE. I challenge you today to become aware of the occasions when you default to BCD and try your best to recognize them and cut them off. I hope you find great value in today’s episode.

Hi everyone... Welcome to Monday Morning Mastery powered by The NEXT Academy - Building Construction Leaders for What Comes NEXT. As always I hope this finds you ready to attack the week ahead. Today's episode is about the importance of diversity. It’s so easy for us to stay in our comfort zone, but ultimately I’ve found that that line of thinking will never allow me to grow as an individual. It’s no secret that as a society we are becoming more and more tribal in our friendships, in our relationships. We stick to a circle that reinforces our beliefs and makes us feel good. We all do this. Ultimately though…is that a good thing? I’m reminded of the great Oscar Wilde quote “Be yourself. Everyone else is taken.” Bringing together different types of thinkers creates better results. I hope you find great value in today’s episode. Don’t ever stop chasing to BE BETTER.

This will impact YOU! Episode 8️⃣ of 2️⃣0️⃣2️⃣0️⃣ is out NOW‼️ In today’s episode, Chad and Cody take a look at the book by General Stanley McChrystal and his co-authors, Jeff Eggers and Jay Mangone, which explores a variety of different genres of leaders from geniuses, founders, politicians, reformers, heroes, and zealots. While he asserts that a group’s performance is less about the leaders ability and more about the surrounding factors, General McChrystal claims that the best leaders are those who are empathetic to the group’s position at a given time and are able to constantly adapt.

Today Chad & Cody pick out leadership lessons that they feel can help contractors create a competitive advantage by understanding the complexities of leadership and the importance of creating a learning leadership environment at every level.

Hi everyone... Welcome to Monday Morning Mastery powered by The NEXT Academy - Building Construction Leaders for What Comes NEXT. As always I hope this finds you ready to attack the week ahead. Two Ears, One Mouth - many of us have heard this message. Whether that came from a parent. A teacher. Or from your own mouth, many of you out there today have heard this message. WE HAVE TWO EARS AND ONE MOUTH SO THAT WE CAN LISTEN TWICE AS MUCH AS WE SPEAK. Now more than maybe ever in our society it’s important to listen. Stephen Covey once said Most People do not listen with the intent to understand, they listen with the intent to reply. Poor communication comes with a high price tag.

Hi everyone... Welcome to Monday Morning Mastery powered by The NEXT Academy - Building Construction Leaders for What Comes NEXT.  As always I hope this finds you ready to attack the week ahead. Often when I drop my kids off at school over the last year I’ve said to them “Make today better than yesterday and tomorrow better than today.” The message behind this quote is simple…always be striving to be better. To grow. As you know It’s much easier said than done. But the importance of each and every day cannot be overstated. What you do today matters. “People create success in their lives by focusing on today. It may sound trite, but today is the only time you have. It’s too late for yesterday. And you can’t depend on tomorrow. That’s why today matters.”  "Just for Today" is a simple method taught by the great John Maxwell that helps add some clarity to this daily discipline.

Hi everyone... Welcome to Monday Morning Mastery powered by The NEXT Academy - Building Construction Leaders for What Comes NEXT. As always I hope this finds you ready to attack the week ahead. Being busy, does not mean being productive. Today's episode will hopefully give you the push to stop trying to manage your time and focus more on managing your focus and energy. We can strive for more success, we can drive for more results, but we cannot increase the amount of time we have in any given day. We have no control over time, but it dominates our daily lives. And while we have countless methods, tips and tricks to manage our time and prevent ourselves from “wasting” time, we can do nothing to slow down the endless and powerful march of the clock. I really believe today's episode will give you a newfound lens for which to view your calendar and upcoming workload. Please live me a comment and let me know your thoughts!

Listen...I understand it’s hard for you right now. It’s certainly “different” for us all, but it’s very important to apply some #perspective to your current circumstances. Hopefully this episode of #MondayMorningMastery can ease your burden and allow you to begin to focus on how you can help others through this trying time.  Lets work hard this week to avoid that negative tone that’s so loud, so prevalent in much of our culture right now. I can’t tell you how many times a day I hear people say “This is the worst time of my life”…If that happens to be you listening right now...It’s important to ask yourself “Compared to What?” Frankly, in this country on your worst day, you’re still better off than the majority of the world. That’s simply fact. So let’s be a bit more realistic. I challenge you today to go be a blessing. As one of my mentors Dr. Kevin Elko always says “Do not look for blessings to come into your life, go be a blessing in someone else’s life” Go out there and make a difference in someone else’s life today. And I promise, it will make a difference in yours. Registration is now open for the 2021 NEXT Academy class.

Episode 7️⃣of 2️⃣0️⃣2️⃣0️⃣ is out NOW‼️ In today’s episode, Chad and Cody take a look at James Kerr's classic book “Legacy.” When the going gets tough, the tough start changing. Difficult times call for different solutions. In his global bestseller, Legacy, James Kerr goes deep into the heart of the world's most successful team, the New Zealand All Blacks, to help understand what it takes to bounce back from adversity and still reach the top. It is a book about leading a team or an organization - but, more importantly, about leading a life. The kind of life that you want to lead.

In today's volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous (VUCA) environment, personal leadership has never been more relevant.

It is a truly life-defining read that addresses the big questions - values, vision, mindset and purpose - that, when answered, build the foundation for resilience, excellence and sustained success.

This book will change your life.

Champions do extra. They sweep the sheds, follow the spearhead, and keep a blue head. They are good ancestors and plant trees they'll never see.

Today Chad & Cody pick out leadership lessons that they feel can help contractors create a competitive advantage by going to the heart of how great leaders - and we are all leaders - 'reboot' and reframe their future. This book is 🔥🔥🔥

Hi everyone... Welcome to Monday Morning Mastery powered by The NEXT Academy - leadership built for contractors. As always I hope this finds you ready to attack the week ahead. Martin Dempsey - Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff recently said “Three concentric crises: the pandemic, a depressed economy, racial injustice. In each an opportunity, more than that an obligation, to improve. We can’t settle for back to normal. We must be “better than normal.” If not now, when?” Now is the time for each of us to control the controllable in our lives. Deal in reality. The reality is…we are starving for leadership. But in all scenarios of crisis, we can learn. We can grow. We can inspire. We can improve. So I’d ask that you…open your mind and hearts like never before. Let us never go back to where we were in March or April or May or yesterday for that matter...let us move forward as one.

First, let me say Happy Memorial Day and a heartfelt Thank You to the brave men and women who have made the ultimate sacrifice, courageously losing their lives defending our freedoms. 🇺🇸 Let us never forget, “Our flag doesn’t fly because the wind moves it, but because of the last breath of each soldier who died protecting it.” Welcome to Monday Morning Mastery powered by The NEXT Academy - leadership built for contractors. As always I hope this finds you ready to attack the week ahead. This Wednesday Night we have Class 15 of The NEXT Academy and to me it’s one of the most important lessons we teach throughout the year to our contractor participants from across the county. We’re going to analyze the "F Word" - Failure. It’s important to first recognize that failure will happen, and when it does, you have two options. You can accept it and stay average... Or ... You can use it as an opportunity to grow... Failure is the stepping stone to ultimate success. Just because you #FAIL does not make you a #FAILURE. I challenge you to embrace this life with a new relationship to failure… I don’t care what people say, I don’t care what people think, I’m going to courageously pursue greatness. And when failure comes, I will pick myself up, learn from it and come back stronger and better than I was before. Remember, as Denis Waitley once said “Failure should be our teacher, not our undertaker. Failure is delay, not defeat. It is a temporary detour, not a dead end. Failure is something we can avoid only by saying nothing, doing nothing, and being nothing.” Thank you so much for your support of these messages and your willingness to share with coworkers, friends and family across all of the social media landscape!

Setbacks are temporary, I bounce back quickly. You gotta support yourself #unconditionally and behave like the person you see in your #dreams.

Hi everyone...Welcome to Monday Morning Mastery powered by The NEXT Academy - leadership built for contractors. As always I hope this finds you ready to attack the week ahead. Today I’d like to talk to you about Self Awareness. Think of a leader who you look up to? Compare your actions to their actions and adapt those qualities that will benefit you in the long run. Self awareness is the foundation of personal growth and success. Only when we reach that point in life can we be the person we desire to be. Self awareness is the fundamental to understanding ourselves perfectly. I personally believe self awareness is the most important catalyst to our leadership development. You must first have a deep understanding of self, before you know how to grow. You have to be willing to open the rusty hood and see what’s underneath. We are all meant for greatness. You just have to find the gift placed inside of you. To find it… you must first be willing to go into the depths of truth. That can be scary for us all, but it’s a prerequistie to becoming the person you’re meant to be. I challenge you to look at yourself objectively today…look inward and find your truth? And when you find it, push all the chips into the center and GO ALL IN! Thank you so much for your support of these messages and your willingness to share with coworkers, friends and family across all of the social media landscape! If I can ever help you in any way… PLEASE do not hesitate to reach out. I’m always here to help or more importantly find you the necessary resources that are far smarter than I that may be able to help on your personal & professional leadership journey.

Hi everyone...Welcome to Monday Morning Mastery powered by The NEXT Academy - leadership built for contractors. In today's episode titled "What's Your Peanut🥜⁉️" we discuss the story of the Boll Weevil and its unique and profound connection to Enterprise, Alabama. 

The story is a great illustration of living in vision or living in circumstance. This is an ideal story for the challenges we all face in our current climate. When the boll weevil wiped out an area's dominant crop, cotton, in the earlier 20th century, the farmers, in the face of bleak #circumstances, turned to growing a variety of crops, most notably peanuts, to great success. So much, in fact, that a statue of a boll weevil was erected in Enterprise to thank the insect for the #vision its devastation had revealed.

I challenge you to be intentional with your efforts to find your peanut? As individuals, as business owners, as union contractors…

Thank you so much for your support of these videos and your willingness to share with coworkers, friends and family!

Episode 5️⃣ of 2️⃣0️⃣2️⃣0️⃣ is out NOW‼️ In today’s episode, Chad and Cody take a look at Ryan Holiday’s classic book “The Obstacle is the Way.” Ryan has a unique way of turning a subject like stoicism that is quite scary for many of us into an easily digestible and actionable leadership guidebook. I encourage all of you to pick it up. We are stuck, stymied, frustrated. But it needn’t be this way. There is a formula for success that’s been followed by icons of history - from John D. Rockefeller to Amelia Earhart to Ulysses S. Grant to Steve Jobs - a formula that showed them how to turn obstacles into opportunities. Faced with impossible situations, they produced the astounding triumphs we all seek. These men and women were not exceptionally brilliant, lucky or gifted. Their success came from timeless philosophical principles laid down by a Roman Emperor who struggled to articulate a method of excellence in any and all situations. This book reveals that formula in a new way - and shows us how we can turn our own adversity into advantage. Today Chad & Cody pick out leadership lessons that they feel can help contractors create a competitive advantage by turning trials into triumph. This book is AWESOME 🔥🔥🔥

Lisa Wampler and John Greenhall do a fantastic job in the #CohenSegliasLegalMinute explaining the complexities of Force Majeure clauses.

You can waste it or use it for good. What you do today is important because you are exchanging a day of your life for it. When tomorrow comes, this day will be gone forever. In its place is something that you have left behind. Let it be something good.”

Disappointment is at the tip of many of our tongues and on the forefront of most of our minds. We’ve had to tell our children that they will miss treasured experiences. We’ve had to tell friends we can’t share in birthday celebrations. We’ve had to tell parents we can’t visit them in the hospitals. We’ve had to deal with loss of income… of employment…and in the very worst cases the loss of friends and loved ones - all due to the global pandemic.

It’s never been more important than it is right now to look around you and count your blessings. Even in our most dire times, they are there if you look close enough. I challenge you to not let disappointment fester in your soul, because it will. Look for gratitude in the smallest of blessings. You’ll be surprised even in times like these, when the world feels dark and closing in, you can still hear the birds sing. Let go of expectations. Let go of what was. And deal in the now. Own your current circumstances and move forward. One step at a time.

Thank you so much for your support of these videos and your willingness to share with coworkers, friends and family!

If I can ever help you in any way… PLEASE do not hesitate to reach out. I’m always here to help or more importantly find you the necessary resources that are far smarter than I that may be able to help on your personal & professional leadership journey.

Please be safe and smart out there. I look forward to seeing you again next week. Until then attack the week ahead. Own your life and BeNEXT.

Welcome to Monday Morning Mastery powered by The NEXT Academy - leadership built for contractors. In today's episode we discuss #CoreFocus through a story called "Acres of Diamonds💎"

In times like these, it doesn’t take much for an organization to get off track. I know right now #innovation is at the forefront of all of our minds, but it should not be the only thing in this VUCA world we are living in. Businesses can easily become distracted by opportunities that are wolves in sheep‘s clothing. Everyone has the answer for you right now. I encourage you to double down on your strengths! You may not feel like it but most people are sitting on their own diamond mines. 

I challenge you to answer this question…What is your core focus? What is one actionable step You can make today to return to those roots?

Thank you so much for your support of these videos and your willingness to share with coworkers, friends and family!

Welcome to Monday Morning Mastery powered by The NEXT Academy - leadership built for contractors. In today's episode we talk about #COMMITMENT🔗

What does commitment mean to you? Inky Johnson has one of my favorite quotes in history and I think it has never been more appropriate contextually than it is right now. Inky says “Commitment is Staying True to What You Said You Would Do LONG After the Mood that You Said it in Has Left!!!!” I love that. And It’s been my reality so many times. It hits home for me and I’m sure it does for many of you listening out there today.

Difficult times can diminish us, define us or develop us. YOU decide. What is one choice you can make today for a better tomorrow? I challenge you to answer this question…What is one choice you can #commit to today that will have you better when the fog clears?

Thank you so much for your support of these videos and your willingness to share with coworkers, friends and family!

Welcome to Monday Morning Mastery powered by The NEXT Academy - leadership built for contractors. As always I hope this finds you ready to attack the week ahead. My thoughts and prayers go out to everyone as you continue to deal with the incredible #PAIN and uncertainty that the #Coronavirus has caused. Real people are dying. Our economy has died. Over 3 Million people are unemployed. People are hurting. I’d ask that regardless of your personal beliefs, that you’re mindful of others. Mindful of their individual and unique circumstances. Show compassion and empathy towards your neighbors. Although this may have not effected you on a personal level, it has effected hundreds of thousands of others, so now is a good time to remove your ego, show humility and understand that people are dealing with a great deal of #PAIN. Some emotional. Some physical. Some both.

We all go through disappointments, setbacks, loss. #Pain is a part of life and it will always be a part of your life...How you learn to GROW through it will determine your future.

If I can ever help you in any way… PLEASE do not hesitate to reach out. I’m always here to help or more importantly find you the necessary resources that are far smarter than I that may be able to help on your personal & professional leadership journey.

Be safe and smart out there. I look forward to seeing you again next week. Until then attack the week ahead. Own your life and #BeNEXT.

Episode 4️⃣ of 2️⃣0️⃣2️⃣0️⃣‼️ In today’s episode, Chad and Cody take a look at the impact of the #Coronavirus and #COVID19 on our industry while analyzing Jocko Willink’s new book “Leadership Strategy & Tactics.” Jocko explains how to take leadership theory, quickly translate that theory into applicable strategy, and then put leadership into action at a tactical level. I think this is a valuable book and very well could be a solution for leaders at every level―not just to understand the leadership game, but also how to play the leadership game. It’s very practical in application and valuable in the midst of our current world crisis.

Today Chad & Cody pick out leadership lessons that they feel can help contractors create a competitive advantage by implementing strategic principles from the battle field and translating them to the board room. This book is #FIRE 🔥🔥🔥

John Greenhall and Lisa Wampler do a fantastic job in the #CohenSegliasLegalMinute explaining in detail how to address the contract clauses regarding WHEN you get paid.

Praying for you all in this challenging time that is unlike anything we have ever faced. 💯👊🏼💪🏽

What’s up everyone...Welcome to Monday Morning Mastery powered by The NEXT Academy - leadership built for contractors. As always I hope this finds you ready to attack the week ahead. Praying for everyone out there as they continue to deal with the incredible uncertainty that the #Coronavirus has caused‼️ I’d ask that regardless of your personal beliefs, you continue to be #mindful of others. Mindful of their individual & unique circumstances. Continue to show compassion and support.

I felt this is the perfect time to remind each of you of a concept that I learned from Jocko Willink. #Jocko is a retired U.S. Navy SEAL officer, co-author of the #1 New York Times bestseller Extreme Ownership, Dichotomy of Leadership, host of the top-rated Jocko Podcast, and co-founder of Echelon Front, where he serves as Chief Executive Officer, leadership instructor, speaker and strategic advisor. Jocko created a phrase or more specifically an equation that’s inherently changed my life…and although simple to understand, hugely impactful…Discipline = Freedom 🇺🇸. This is timely given the circumstances we currently find ourselves in, specifically how do we maintain discipline in the face of quartantines, social distancing and just being thrown completely out of our daily routine.

If I can ever help you in any way… PLEASE do not hesitate to reach out. I’m always here to help or more importantly find you the necessary resources LIKE JOCKO that are far smarter than I that may be able to help in your personal & professional growth.

Be safe and smart out there. I look forward to seeing you again next week. Until then attack the week ahead. Own your life and BeNEXT.

What’s up everyone...Welcome to Monday Morning Mastery powered by The NEXT Academy - leadership built for contractors. As always I hope this finds you ready to attack the week ahead. What a week we’ve just endured, right? CORONAVIRUS‼️

Leadership is lonely especially in a time of crisis, but in all scenarios of crisis, we can learn. We can grow. We can inspire. So I’d ask that you…

Be committed to lifting others up. Encourage. Show empathy. Do not let negativity win today. Remember it starts with you. Whether you’re leading yourself, your family or your company through these turbulent times, choose faith over fear. Trust that while we may be facing challenges, we will overcome. Together.

So I challenge you to lead in the face of fire 🔥‼️

If I can ever help you in any way… PLEASE do not hesitate to reach out to me via direct message or through email. I’m always here to help or more importantly find you the necessary resources that are far smarter than I that may be able to help in your personal & professional growth.

What’s up everyone...Welcome to Monday Morning Mastery powered by The NEXT Academy - leadership built for contractors. As always I hope this finds you ready to attack the week ahead.

Are you a parked car? In the immortal words of Tony Soprano “More is lost in indecision than in wrong decision.” If you feel like you're stuck in life, this #M3 session is for you.

I heard the great Matthew Hussey discuss the concept of indecision that many of us face using an analogy of a parked car. I think you will both relate and enjoy this story. Ask yourself this…Why am I really holding back from chasing my dreams? I can assure the fear holding you back is not real. It is a product of our imagination. This Jim Rohn quote always left an impression on me and I hope it does for you as well. “We must all suffer from one of two pains: the pain of discipline or the pain of regret. The difference is discipline weighs ounces while regret weighs tons.” Don’t live with the regret of not trying. At the end of the day, the sole responsibility lies with you. Go get after it today. Remember you’re dying.

If I can ever help you in any way… PLEASE do not hesitate to reach out to me via direct message or through email. I’m always here to help or more importantly find you the necessary resources that are far smarter than I that may be able to help in your personal & professional growth.

What’s up everyone...Welcome to Monday Morning Mastery powered by The NEXT Academy - leadership built for contractors. I love the aspect of #marketing. Creating a #brand. In today’s lesson I’m asking you to take a closer look at your marketing strategy. Over my years in the construction industry, I’ve learned that very few contracting firms have marketing departments and even fewer have a strategy with regard to building their brand. I'm hoping I can prove today that it’s important to be thoughtful with your marketing approach specifically in a time period where people are inundated with high volume content.

I use a story titled "Maybe It's The Donkey?" that I heard a while back from Gino Wickman who is one of the author’s we pull from at The NEXT Academy to help solidify this message...it's awesome and so TRUE!

Ask yourself this…Do I have a marketing strategy for my construction firm or association? Do I have the personnel in place to execute it? I encourage you to first understand the complexities of the the platforms that control business awareness in today’s world. This is tailored, niche analysis that done correctly will catapult your business.

The goal of today’s interview was to not only give David the opportunity to discuss his vision for the NECA organization but more importantly to ask David the questions that seem to surface in hallways at national meetings, bar rooms of hotels and through email & text chains but are never really discussed in a broad forum. Today you’ll get to learn those answers straight from the David’s mouth. I think an important leadership lesson here is that oftentimes the guy at the top doesn’t hear the real issues…the pressing concerns. And although it’s easy to point the finger at the top…if you’re unwilling to step into that leadership moment and ask the question, who’s fault is that? Listen we’ve all ducked those moments. All of us. The reasons for not asking the questions are vast and wide. Some of the time very valid…but most of the time they’re centered around protecting ones own ass. As we grow on our leadership journey it’s important to recognize these moments and seize the opportunities when presented. I’m hoping today’s interview will clear up some of the confusion circulating amongst our association.

What’s up everyone...Welcome to Monday Morning Mastery powered by The NEXT Academy - leadership built for contractors. Today’s lesson is near and dear to my ❤️ as it’s honestly been a source of #CompetitiveAdvantage for Chad Jones and I at the Western PA NECA Chapter and also throughout the growth of The NEXT Academy. I’m referring to the concept of speed and staying on offense.🔥🔥🔥 Hear #JeffBezos thoughts on what it means to be a "Day 1 Company" and why #ChrisSacca chose to "Go on Offense" early on in his extraordinary career. After years of thoughtful analysis, I’d say the majority of us are playing a reactionary game. Essentially playing defense. And coming from a former quarterback, I hate defense.

What you all have to understand is that your email inbox is a to-do list to which anyone in the world can add an action item. You need to get out of your inbox and back to your own to-do list. You need to sprint. You need to go On Offense.

Ask yourself this…Do I lead with an offensive or defensive mindset? Do I value speed in my organization? I encourage you to consider all of the alternatives to your current mode of leadership. You just find that you like how it feels to dictate the pace of performance.

HAPPY ❤️ DAY TO ALL YOU LOVE BIRDS OUT THERE 🤣 Episode 3️⃣ of 2️⃣0️⃣2️⃣0️⃣ is LIVE‼️ In today’s episode, Chad and Cody analyze Simon Sinek’s book “The Infinite Game.” Sinek helps us remember the basics; very important basics. He did this with his book Start with Why. And he does it again with his new book, The Infinite Game. Today’s episode (and this book) should rally those who are ready to challenge that status quo and replace it with a reality that is vastly more conducive to our deep-seated human need to feel safe, to contribute to something bigger than ourselves and to provide for ourselves and our families. “It is our collective responsibility to find, guide and support those who are committed to leading in a way that will more likely bring that vision to life. Simply put: The responsibility of business is to use its will and resources to advance a cause greater than itself, protect the people and places in which it operates and generate more resources so that it can continue doing all those things for as long as possible.” Today Chad & Cody pick out leadership lessons that they feel can help contractors create a competitive advantage through playing the #InfiniteGame and what it’s like to begin to challenge the status quote in your Union Contracting Companies. This book is #DYNAMITE 🔥🔥🔥 Buy the Infinite Game Here John Greenhall and Lisa Wampler do a fantastic job in the #CohenSegliasLegalMinute discussing the options contractors have "for getting paid.'

Welcome to Monday Morning Mastery powered by The NEXT Academy - leadership built for contractors. Today’s episode is about turning your “Shoulds to Musts”…a strategy I learned from the great #TonyRobbins. Now is a good time to check in with you all those New Years resolutions. We are roughly 40 days into the New Year. How are you doing? I recognize that some of you might have slipped off your path already and let me give you some insight that I think may help you get back on track. 

Ask yourself this…Do I have a set of baseline standards for what I’ll accept in my life? If not, you’ll find it easy to slip into behaviors and attitudes and a quality of life that’s far below what you deserve. Burn the Boats today.

If I can ever help you in any way, PLEASE do not hesitate to reach out to me via direct message or through email. I’m always here to help or find you the necessary resources that may be able to help in your personal & professional growth.

Welcome to Monday Morning Mastery powered by The NEXT Academy - leadership built for contractors. Today’s lesson is built on Tim & Brian Kights E+R=O philosophy, what I feel is Life's Equation for Success. I first heard of the concept when I read Urban Meyer’s book “Above the Line”…I was instantly drawn to this simple yet impactful approach. This methodology is now being taught in classrooms, corporations and on athletic fields throughout the country. My hope is that I’m getting ready to introduce you to Life’s Equation for Success. You see It’s never been more important, or more valuable, to cut through the noise of complexity and secure yourself on a foundation of reliable simplicity. Ask yourself this…Do I even consider my responses to events or am I simply running on autopilot most of the time? Responses should be intentional, purposeful and skillful. Not impulsive and resistant. Life is a constant flow of events and it’s important to understand that success is not determined by the situations you experience. Success is determined by how you choose to manage your response.

If I can ever help you in any way, PLEASE do not hesitate to reach out to me via direct message or through email. I’m always here to help or find you the necessary resources that may be able to help in your personal & professional growth.

The union construction world is subject to a dizzying rate of change. And as leaders in the 21st construction industry we must be equipped to handle it.

Today’s lesson is on #NecessaryReinvention and Hiroshi Mikitani's valuable rule of 3 and 10. Ask yourself this…Have you outgrown your systems or beliefs? Is it time that you upgraded? As Jerry Colonna, Executive Coach to some of the biggest tech stars in Silicon Valley, would ask “How are you complicit in creating the conditions you say… you don’t want?”

Welcome to Monday Morning Mastery (M3) powered by The NEXT Academy. In today's episode we're going to challenge you to take a closer look at your company's #Safety...No, not that kind of safety! I'm talking the creation of a #PsychologicalSafeSpace within your organization to allow employees the opportunity to speak and share freely. Ask yourself this…What kind of #culture have you fostered in your office? Do employees feel they can talk openly about a variety of issues? Interpersonal risk taking becomes far less risky if you know what others want and how they prefer to be treated. These are all valuable outcomes of promoting a culture of learning and inquiry, despite the risks of uncertainty, vulnerability, and discord. Choose wisely!

Episode 2️⃣ of 2️⃣0️⃣2️⃣0️⃣‼️ In today’s episode, Chad and Cody analyze Shawn Achor’s book “The Happiness Advantage.” “We’ve been taught that if we work hard, we will be successful, and then we’ll be happy. If we can just find that great job, get a raise, lose those five pounds, happiness will follow. But recent discoveries in the field of positive psychology have shown that this formula is actually backward: happiness fuels success, not the other way around.” Chad & Cody pick out leadership lessons that they feel can help contractors create a competitive advantage through positive psychology and continue to grow on a personal and professional level. John Greenhall and Lisa Wampler do a fantastic job in the #CohenSegliasLegalMinute discussing what contractors need to know about the impactful circumstances of inclement weather on the job site.
