Interview with Bill Wooditch

Everyone makes mistakes and learning from them is the only way to truly improve performance—but how many people take a clear, focused approach to building on the foundations of failure?  Too few.  In FAIL MORE: Embrace, Learn, and Adapt to Failure as a Way to Success (March 29, 2019; McGraw Hill Education; ISBN: 978-1-260-441512) author Bill Wooditch, shows the surprising lessons we can all learn from his own path of hard failures that ultimately led him to found and lead as CEO a company with annual sales of $100 million. Wooditch advises business leaders to capitalize on every failure that they encounter―large and small―to transform it into a stepping stone along the path to a successful business. Revealing how setbacks are both inevitable and valuable, and introducing practical methods for moving past self- doubt and self-recrimination, Wooditch can offer such insights as how to: 
Recognize when fear is disguising itself as procrastination or distraction
Learn to minimize imagined fear that can overwhelm and cloud decision making
Cultivate allies and advocates who can help you see the blind spots
Discover that nonchoice is also a choice and, why sometimes nonchoices are the best bet
Work with a model to determine the worst-case and best-case results of a situation·         Use 
all emotions as a tool—even the negative ones Perfect isn’t part of the human condition. With examples from the careers of Jack Ma, Mark Cuban and David Neeleman to Steve Harvey, J.K.

Interview with Aaron Smith

Having been in education for 21 years, I’ve seen it all. Children living in poverty, homelessness, bullying, child abuse, incompetent teachers, and uncaring educators towards their students. Seeing this too often prompted me to write my second book that hinges on one question…”what does it take to build the perfect public school.”While searching for this holy grail, it dawned onto me all students must graduate confident and competent for the workplace. After probing for more information, I realized there was no systematic processes in place. It’s here where I discovered a way to connect the dots to build and sustain a robust workforce where will changes diplomas to dollars.I would appreciate the opportunity to engage in a conversation with your audience that opens our society’s mind about education and workplace readiness so our children can have a brighter future.https://www.facebook.com/WorkplaceReadinessSolutions/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/workplacereadinesssolutions/Learn more about your ad choices.
