Two Minute Drill: Getting in the Game

What’s up Kaizenovators, Happy Tuesday Two Minute Drill. Today’s topic of conversation is AI as an Artificial Intelligence. This past weekend, I taught three courses on AI at the Florida Chiropractic Association, The National Convention, it was a great event. Got to hang out, and spend a lot of time with friends.

Artificial Intelligence

One of the things that I really observed in teaching AI to these classes is that people are afraid. They’re afraid of change. They’re afraid of this new technology. They’re just afraid of getting in the game. This week’s TMD is all about getting in the game.

AI, I can promise you will deliver three really important elements of value for you.

One, it will make you more efficient. I’ve used these tools now for months. My team and I have been way more efficient and able to do many different things like creating content, creating training videos, and creating training documents. We’ve just been able to be more efficient.

Two, it’s going to help you tap into your creativity. We are only at the limits of our own creativity when using these tools. You’re actually going to learn how to become more creative with the use of AI.

Then lastly, that third really important element is that I promise you, you won’t get left behind.

If we’re getting comfortable using these tools, then more tools coming out every single day will be a lot easier for us to adopt and help them improve our lives.

Again, you are going to be more efficient, you’re going to tap into creativity and you are going to not get left behind.

There is a great website called Futurepedia.io, sign up for it and every single week in your inbox you’re going to get all the new AI tools that are being developed.

That’s this week’s Two Minute Drill guys. Don’t be afraid of AI dive in, get in the game, and I promise you it will make your life better.

You guys have a great week. Talk to you all next week.

Two Minute Drill: Rethink, Rebuild, Restart

What’s up Kaizenovators, Happy Tuesday Two Minute Drill.Today’s topic of conversation is Rethink, Rebuild, Restart. I remember listening to this book many years ago, Jack: Straight from the Gut. It was Jack Welch’s book, and I remember him talking about the fact that great companies go through change, disruption, and upheaval about every five years.

The Rethinking Pathway

That change is necessary because one thing that’s constant is change. Change happens in the environment around us and therefore great companies must adapt.

Over the last several weeks, I’ve gotten a lot of feedback from my direct reports. It only takes one conversation, and one comment to start you going down the rethinking pathway.

When you have those conversations and when you’re getting feedback, real honest, open feedback, you can then think about how you rebuild what you’re doing, and how you can make it even better than where you are today.

I will tell you, don’t take for granted that your people are being open, like fully open with you 100% of the time. In a leadership role, many times, even though you’ve built great trust and great relationships, your team may not feel fully comfortable expressing how they truly feel.

When you start to get that feedback dig deeper and get as much information as you can so that you can then restart what you’re doing and create an even better environment for your people and a better company for your customers and your strategic partners.

So that’s today’s Two Minute Drill Rethink, Rebuild, Restart.

Make sure you’re getting really open and honest feedback from your team so you can do those three things and move forward with your personal and your company’s mission.

Have a great week you all!

For those who are at FCA this weekend, I can’t wait to catch you all there. We’ll have an amazing weekend!

Two Minute Drill: Becoming Hall of Famers Ourselves

What’s up Kaizenovators, Happy Tuesday Two Minute Drill. Today’s topic of conversation is the Hall of Fame. As you can see behind me, there are some pro-NFL helmets, all signed by Hall of Fame players. I’m a big fan of football and, of course, I love watching the Hall of Fame induction speeches.

Hall of fame

I believe the Hall of Fame induction speeches offer not only great stories about football but also invaluable lessons about leadership and life. Three things stood out to me this past weekend when I watched the induction speeches.

The first one was the concept of grit. All these players had a tremendous amount of grit.

Joe Thomas, left tackle for the Cleveland Browns, for example, played 10,363 consecutive snaps. That takes a tremendous amount of physical, mental, and emotional grit.

The second thing that stood out to me is that all of them were coachable. They all listened, and they were all willing to learn from the people who came before them. The coaches wanted those players to achieve their highest level of success; and they listened and they applied. Because of that, they became some of the 371 best players to ever play the game of football.

Lastly, the concept of self-determination. I love what Darrelle Revis said. He said the competition will always be you versus you. What he essentially was saying is that it doesn’t really matter what’s going on around you.

You have to ask yourself, are you going to be the best version of yourself or not? It’s going to be me versus the lesser version of me. Which version of me is going to win? And that was inspiring.

So again, lessons learned are grittiness, being coachable, and having this concept of self-determination where we can be the best versions of ourselves and be Hall of Famers ourselves.

That’s this week’s Two Minute Drill. You guys have a great week, and I will talk to you all next week.

Two Minute Drill: The Power of I’m Sorry

What’s up Kaizenovators, Happy Tuesday Two Minute Drill. Today’s topic of conversation is, I’m sorry. I am here in the beautiful Downtown Branson, Missouri. I’ve always wanted to come here and I was here for the Missouri Chiropractic Physicians Association meeting – a truly great event.

Saying ‘I’m Sorry’

First and foremost, I’m sorry for not delivering my TMD to you last week. I was behind and it’s not the first time that I’ve missed. I just want you guys to know that I recognize that I missed and I’m sorry for that.

The second thing that I wanted to share about, “I’m sorry”, is that I had to apologize to Manal, who does all the work behind the scenes to make these videos and many other things that you see online.

In fact, all the things that you’re seeing online about our company, about me, she’s the one who makes it happen. I had to apologize to her as well because I’m late and I’m late a lot.

I had to apologize to her because I think those two words, “I’m sorry”, are important. Then, I have to work hard to make sure that I don’t do it again.

Today is actually Saturday, and I’m taping this early so she has it and she doesn’t have to worry about my TMD even though she always does it with literally a smile on her face or a smile emoji.

Those two words, “I’m sorry”, can go a really long way when you recognize as a leader that you’ve made mistakes, you’re owning up to them, and you’re recognizing that they’re negatively affecting other people.

If you’re recognizing any kind of mistake that you’ve made in your life, “I’m sorry”, can go a very long way, whether it’s with your coworkers, whether it’s with your friends, or your family.

So, that’s this week’s TMD, guys, from downtown Branson, Missouri.

You guys have a great week and I’ll talk to you all next week.
