Flawless Execution

Flawless Execution

00:00 / 00:31:05

Flawless Execution

On this week’s episode I sat down with founder of Afterburner Inc., Jim “Murph” Murphy stopped by to talk about their innovative Flawless Execution strategy for leadership and sales growth. Murph has a unique and powerful mix of leadership skills in both the military and business worlds. After initially spending a couple of years in sales after college, successfully helping his company significantly increase their sales, he happened to meet an Air Force pilot who made a big impression on him.

He joined the U.S. Air Force where he learned to fly the F-15, ultimately logging over 1,200 hours as an instructor pilot in the F-15 and accumulated over 3,200 hours of flight time in other high-performance aircraft. As the 116th Fighter Wing’s Chief of Training for the Georgia Air National Guard, Murph’s job was to keep 42 combat-trained fighter pilots ready to deploy worldwide within 72 hours. He also flew missions to Central America, Asia, Central Europe and the Middle East as a Flight Leader.

Before his service in the U.S. Air Force, Murph had a successful career in imaging equipment sales, where he helped increase his company’s sales by 500%. Years later, he became Director of Sales for a small paint company. The concepts he developed and utilized in business and the U.S. Air Force would become known as Flawless Execution. By applying Flawless Execution’s continuous cycle of planning, briefing, executing, and debriefing, he increased his new employer’s sales from $5 million to $52 million per year.

It was clear that any business or organization could benefit from these same concepts, so Murph launched Afterburner Incorporated in early 1996.

Today, the Afterburner team shares their story and their Flawless Execution approach to improving leadership, team cohesion, and sales to executives at over 200 events per year.

This week I sat down with Marshall Chiles, Founder and Dudeman of Humor Wins, a business that helps companies looking to improve team dynamics among their staff. As the owner of one of the first comedy clubs in Atlanta, Laughing Skull Lounge, he has been in the humor business for years. He decided to take his knowledge of comedy to help business people learn to add an element of humor to their client interactions and sales presentations. Humor Wins’ team also provides corporate roast services, adding a memorable, interesting element to company events.

Marshall talked about how they take their clients through the process of learning how to develop some humorous comments or jokes that help disarm prospective customers, facilitating relationship building that can lead to a sale. His team also facilitates team building by teaching self-deprecating humor that can foster better communication and reduce tension among the business’s staff.

He brought along Jeremy Wing, Co-CEO of Payscape Advisors, a merchant services and financial technology company. Payscape Advisors provides an array of services and technologies for companies ranging from online invoicing, an online registration platform for schools and camps, access to AR capital, payment processing, and more. Jeremy shared how he came to know Marshall through providing their payment processing services, ultimately becoming a client of Humor Wins.

I met Kimyung Kim, a comedian and word smith who uses improvisational free-style rapping to provide entertainment services for corporate events. We got a demonstration of his skill with him rapping while we gave him random words he integrated into his lyrics.

If your company is looking to attract young, motivated millennials, reduce turnover, and help build closer relationships among your sales force, executives, and administrative staff, you need to get to know these innovative experts.

Take the “OOPS” out of hiring with today’s newsest psychometric assessments

Take the “OOPS” out of hiring with today's newsest psychometric assessments

00:00 /

Our guest today was Chuck Russell, President and founder of BestWork DATA. He discusses how, by using new data technologies, you can take the “OOPS” out of hiring. Author of “Right Person – Right Job, Guess or Know,” Chuck pioneered a new understanding of the practical power of solid DATA to transform the human resources of a business.

Using the newest insights and science of human behavior and working with the most distinguished psychometric scientists in North America and Europe, Chuck has developed a new and more powerful tool to bring increased clarity to the hiring process through more revealing and actionable assessments of the traits of individuals and how those apply to job performance.

From the developer of over 500 unique assessment reports and three assessment system, learn what the new state of the art is in employee assessments and how the popular assessments like Myers-Briggs and D.I.S.C. differ from the newest tools.

In the process, you’ll lean how using today’s modern psychometrics, you can not only put the right person in the right job but even do a far better job of matching job requirements to the best person among a group of seemingly equally qualified and talented people.

With over 70% of all firms using these or similar tools today, if you are not a user, you need to discover what you are missing and if you are not using Chuck’s system, learn what you are missing. You’ll be glad you did.

Giving back to the community is a big thing with Chuck and he makes his system free for use by any Veterans organization to help our heroes understand their strengths while assisting hiring companies to pick people who will best fit their requirements. If you work with any veterans’ group, get in touch for full details, Chuck will be a great partner.

You’ll find more ways to use the system Chuck developed by visiting www.jobthoughts.com – a site for those seeking new opportunities, and www.studenttsincollege.com – a site for students to find out their dominant traits to help them pick careers that will seem like play and where they will excel.

You can reach Chuck Russell at chuck@bestworkdata.com on the web at www.bestworkdata.com or call 770-715-8326.
