| 5/21/18 |  S2E17 - The Superconnector's Playbook | "I think anyone can be a great, great superconnector whether you're an introvert or an extrovert." - Ryan Paugh Click to Tweet In today's episode I sit down with the Superconnectors themselves, Scott Gerber and Ryan Paugh. Scott and Ryan founded the YEC, an invite-only organization for entrepreneurs under 40 back in 2010, which quickly became one of the most elite organizations of its kind. Since then they have partnered on virtually everything they have done from founding a service-based company to The Forbes Leaderships Councils. I had the pleasure to sit down with these two fine gents just before their book, Superconnector: Stop Networking and Start Building Business Relationships that Matter hit the shelves back in February and it has since become and instant hit. From understanding your natural style of connection, to forging partnerships capable of standing the test of time, and how to become a Superconnecting rockstar in your your own circles, in this episode of Community Made!

| 5/17/18 |  S2E16 - The Six Ways to Invest In Relationships | "If I could buy people at what they think they're worth, and sell them at their true value, I'd be filthy rich." Jayson Gaignard Click to Tweet Amazing people become more amazing over time and you just can't predict who someone will become or what they will go on to accomplish in their life.

| 5/14/18 |  S2E15 - Prioritizing Relationships | "If you want a world class network, you need to invest in world class people." Jayson Gaignard Click to Tweet I'm a firm believer that all problems can be solved with the right peer group. That being said, if you're looking to build a world class network then you got to go wide in your networking and narrow in your nurturing. In this episode I share action-oriented strategies for building an incredibly peer group regardless of whether you're just starting out or already established as a community catalyst within your circles. You will learn the 5 categories of relationships and the practical steps you can take nurture them each step of the way, why the key to a strong network is subtraction not addition, and how to constantly be re-investing in existing relationships and micro-investing in new ones this week on Community Made… Reviewer of the week: Sol Orwell Select Links and References: Warren Buffett's '20 Slot' Rule: How to Simplify Your Life and Maximize Your Results Summit Series Fire by Judy Brown People Mentioned in this episode James Clear Warren Buffett Robin Dunbar John Ive Esther Perel Tim Ferriss Larry Page Sergei Brin Casey Neistat Tai Lopez Kevin Kelly Judy Brown | — | ||||||
| 5/10/18 |  S2E14 - Making the Most of Mentorships | If you want to be great at something, find someone who's the best at it and learn from them." -Todd Herman Full disclosure: I am a huge Todd Herman fan. I met Todd during one of the darkest times of my life, and my connection to him has had a substantial positive impact. This man owns real estate in my mind when it comes to mentorship, and for good reason. His digital book, The Definitive Guide on Finding & Becoming a Mentor is the most underrated piece of literature on the subject I have ever read. In this episode of Community Made, the two of us sit down to discuss the many myths of mentorship, Todd's framework for finding a great mentor, his personal playbook on how to be a great mentor, and the many benefits that can be found in mentoring other people...

| 5/7/18 |  S2E13 - How to Learn from Mentors Instead of Mistakes | "The best mentors know this: Instead of giving answers, they ask better questions. Instead of speaking in absolutes, they offer points of view. Instead of giving direct advice, they share their first hand experience." Jayson Gaignard Click to Tweet Looking backwards on my career, I can honestly say that I wouldn't be where I am without the guidance of a few great mentors that took me under their wing. I have learned that you're never too old to have a mentor, you'll need different mentors at different stages in your life and career, and no one person will take you from good to great and excellent to exceptional, so approach it with the goal of creating a network of mentors instead of looking for the whole package. Why the wisest investment is wisdom, how to make the most of a mentoring relationship regardless of which side of the equation you might fall, myths of mentorship that we tend to take as truths, and the 4 stages of mentoring, and so much more in this episode of Community Made!

| 5/1/18 |  S2E12 - Building Communities That Scale | "I was feeling a little bit isolated in my entrepreneurial journey and I just wanted to build a circle of people." Alexis Dean Click to Tweet In this episode of Community Made I sit down with two uber-catalysts, Giovanni Marsico and Alexis Dean. Giovanni is the founder of Archangel Summit, Archangel Academy and Archangel Masters, a trifecta designed to support mission-driven entrepreneurs, help socially oriented startups fund their dreams, and connect global leaders in cause-driven enterprise through annual gatherings. Alexis is the founder of Dovetail Summit, a curated global community of high performing female founders who gather at invitation-only, all-inclusive summit weekends.

| 4/25/18 |  S2E10 - The Business of Relationships | "If you're not acting consistently, then any strategy you try to implement will be useless" - Zvi Band Click to Tweet How do you successfully implement a relationship strategy that nurtures key connections and takes them to the next level?

| 4/19/18 |  S2E8 - Becoming a Catalyst: How to Host Dinners & Unique Live Experiences | I'm a firm believer that all problems can be solved with the right peer group. Hosting dinners and unique live experiences is my favourite way to seed new relationships and re-invest in existing ones. To date I've done hundreds of dinners in cities all over North America but in full transparency, I was a complete wreck while planning my first dinner so many years ago. In this episode of Community Made I'm going to share some of the key takeaways from my book Mastermind Dinners: Build Lifelong Relationships by Connecting Experts, Influencers, and Linchpins and provide an in-depth play by play of what went into the planning of one of my most recent dinners, giving you the playbook on how to become a super-connecting catalyst in your own community.

| 4/16/18 |  S2E7 - An Intimate Q&A with the Legendary Shep Gordon | "It wasn't about being a great musician. It was about irritating the parents as much as we could" Shep Gordon Click to Tweet This is a very special conversation for me. Leveraging many of the principles shared in the previous "reaching the unreachable" episode, I connected (and ultimately fostered a great relationship) with the legendary Shep Gordon. A man who's name is synonymous with Film, Music, and the Culinary Arts. He's known by GQ magazine as the unfamous man who made everyone famous, and in this episode you'll discover why.

| 4/5/18 |  S2E4 - Ditch the Pitch: How to Craft the Perfect Introduction with Clay Hebert | "What's funny is why we get introductions wrong. We either never get taught how to do it, or we learn this stupid thing called the elevator pitch." ~ Clay Hebert Click to Tweet A good introduction should engage you, draw you in, and leave you wanting more. It's not a slogan or a sales attempt, and if it comes across like one it will turn people off. If your nervous, unprepared, or a little too aggressive you not only compromise what you're saying but how you're saying it. The good news is that how you introduce yourself is completely within your control; something that you can and should prepare in advance. In this episode of Community Made I sit down with Clay Hebert to discuss how to craft the perfect introduction, engage in small talk, and nail first impressions each and every time...

| 4/2/18 |  S2E3 - An Event Networking Guide (for Introverts) | "Anybody I know who really makes the most out of live experiences, judges an event not by the content, but by the potential connections." Click to Tweet Events have the power to deliver a disproportionate amount of value for the amount investment made. Almost every time someone has helped me overcome an obstacle, opened a door of opportunity, or made a profound introduction, it's been someone that I originally connected with at a live event. Investing your time, money, and energy into attending events is an absolutely critical part of building new relationships and growing your network. But for so many of us, events are a serious pain point. In this episode I offer you an event networking guide that anyone can use to maximize the ROI of attending events, with particular tips and tricks for all you introverts out there.

| 3/29/18 |  S2E2 - Even Leaders Need a Tribe: The Power of Peers | "You can't change the people around you, but you can change the people you are around. Who you surround yourself with is who you become, so choose wisely." ~ Jayson Gaignard Click to Tweet Studies prove time and again that strong relationships are the key to lifelong health and wellbeing, yet in today's digital age we are drowning in contacts and absolutely starved for genuine connection to other people. Entrepreneurs, who already tend to be socially isolated due to the demands of their professional lives, are particularly susceptible to depression and the detrimental effects of lacking social connection. In this episode I dive into the importance of establishing your tribe, the power of peer group influence, and how to assess whether you should love them, lift them, or leave them. You really are the company you keep.

| 3/26/18 |  S2E1 - Your Network is your Net Worth: The ROI of Relationships | "You can't connect the dots looking forward, you just need to trust that they will somehow connect." Steve Jobs In 2011 I attended an invite only event hosted by Tim Ferriss geared towards authors who wanted to become New York Times Best Sellers. I had no desire to write a book at the time, but with a price tag of $10k USD, I had a strong feeling that there was bound to be some interesting people in attendance. That event fundamentally changed the trajectory of my life. In this episode I share... - Why you never know the value of your relationships until you really need them. - How Seth Godin's Q&A inspired me to host my very first Mastermind Dinner (which later led to the creation of MMT). - and why I bought 4000 copies of Tim Ferriss' book.

| 11/1/17 |  S1E9 - Scaling Solo vs. Partnerships with UJ Ramdas & Chris Plough | "If you want and need complete control, go solo... But if you're looking for scale, and massive impact, I believe that partnership is the absolute best way to accomplish scale" Chris Plough The idea of partnering with someone else to scale the business is a non-starter for a lot of entrepreneurs, myself included. But others absolutely swear by it. In this episode my friends Chris Plough (founding partner of MavenWire) and UJ Ramdas (co-founder of Intelligent Change) try to convince me of the many benefits partnerships can have if you're looking to scale. What you need to know about yourself and the person you're thinking of partnering with, how to develop shared core values and a common vision to drive your business and your partnership forward, and the Pros and Cons of partnering to scale in this episode of Community Made.

This man has invested in over 150 businesses, boasts 99 consecutive quarters of profit, and successfully scaled his first business, which he started out of the trunk of his car, from zero to $2 Billion dollars. In the last couple of years Jim became famous for giving 1.5 Million dollars of his own money to secretly launch a resettlement program that brought 58 Syrian families into Ontario and provided them with housing, language training, and employment. He coordinated the entire program and didn't even tell his own wife until it was ready for launch. In this episode the three of us talk about the struggle of giving up control in order to scale a business, what to look for when you're considering investments, understanding your company's niche, finding your micro competitive advantages, and why Jim does not give money to his kids.

It's made me really love my family, it's really made me appreciate my kids...waking up every single day and seeing the sun, and seeing the mountains and just appreciating that has been phenomenal." - Jordan Guernsey This is one of my most treasured interviews. In this episode I talk with a dear friend Jordan Guernsey just weeks before he passed away. Jordan was an incredible person, father, and husband who was diagnosed with stage three melanoma cancer while in the midst of scaling his business. In this conversation we talk about the dangers of being a tunnel-visioned entrepreneur, Jordan's struggle to step away from the business in order to focus on his health, his perspective on life and death, his family, meditation, and his spiritual journey during that time. To this day I am truly moved by the tenacity and hope with which Jordan dealt with his diagnosis, and the affirmation with which he chose to live out the limited time he had left.
