Growth Dynamics Get Down

I’ve got to tell you, recording all these Fast Tip Fridays, sometimes it's a burden on my brain. I'm trying to figure out what to say, what the message will be, and I look down and there it is, the bottle of Franks Red Hot.

Symptoms:

Recently, nothing stung Darren more than when his wife pointed out that he failed yet again at his promised to be home for dinner. And, tonight he knew that he wouldn't make it to dinner again. His two kids were at the ages where they always seemed to be headed from one practice or another, and his wife Jessica was feeling often deserted when she asked Darren for help with all the driving around town. “Work/life balance” meant nothing more than disappointment to Darren as his boss just kept the pressure on by asking for more sales every month.

Hi, everybody, Charlie Hauck, Growth Dynamics President, Lead trainer, Troublemaker, you know all that stuff. I've been traveling a lot. I've been traveling a lot this summer when it's been really hot and really wet. I live here on the East Coast and my travel tends to get patterns because I have clients in different places, over extended periods of time.

Symptoms:

Bob found himself staring blankly at his calendar. The year was nearing an end and the speed with which the year had flown by surprised Bob again, just like it had each of the last 15 years, since he had started in this business.

Hey, Charlie Hauck, Fast Tip Friday brought you from the Growth Dynamics geniuses. Sarah Waple's on vacation this week watching her son play baseball at Cooperstown. What a great experience for a young man. What a great experience for his whole team.

Symptoms:

Roger could not believe what he just heard. The conversation with one of his most challenging prospects ground to a halt after Roger had asked if the deal just did not make sense. Despite the fact that this was one opportunity that could significantly impact his bonus, Roger just could not think of one more thing to say. So, he just stood there and contemplated how he swung and missed again. “I guess I have to accept your program, so let’s write this up and get that first order in here next week.” What just happened, did someone else walk into the office or did a dream just pop into his subconscious mind? The deal just closed, and Roger was not talking when it happened.

Symptoms:

Lauren hated watching the network news or seeing the latest news flashing on her phone. It seemed like the "Big Story" everywhere was another mass shooting, a political meltdown, a plane crash or other sad story.

This week, I've got another crazy idea for you... and it just applies to so many things and I think it's a lesson or a saying that we've all heard many times in our lives that tries to get us to really focus on the right thing to do or the right thing to believe in.

Good Monday morning - This is Sarah Waple, partner at Growth Dynamics, and I’m here with a special mid-year check in episode of Monday Morning Manager.
