    In this episode, I sit down with William Davis, co-founder of Saipan Team, to uncover one of the most surprising and untapped opportunities for entrepreneurs, remote professionals, and manufacturers alike: the Northern Mariana Islands (CNMI). From its unique tax and tariff advantages, this U.S. territory offers a rare blend of offshore flexibility and American stability.

    Ep. 28 - Compressed air system is costing your company WHAT?!? w/ Alton Stokes

    Alton Stokes, having spent his entire career up to this point in the compressed air world, shares his history in the industry, details the education he has received over the years, and imparts the immense expertise he has acquired through his experiences. Did you know that a compressed air system can account for 20-40% of a facility's electricity consumption?  And oftentimes, that 50% or more of that consumption is waste?  Alton and his team at Case IZ have an impressive expertise that not many in the industry possess.  Their business model doesn't rely on selling you more air compressors, rather it is tailored entirely around the goal of saving money for their customers.

    Ep. 24: Building a Network, and Mastering the "Soft Skills" That Equal Professional Success with Sol Rosenbaum

    I am happy to be joined by the engineering mentor, Sol Rosenbaum.  Sol brings home the bacon via his commercial real estate engineering firm. We get that towards the end of the episode, but the bulk of what we'll talk about is his passion project, mentoring young engineers. Entry level roles for up and coming professionals has come up repeatedly on this show and in this episode, we'll look at this idea from the opposite end, specifically the skills, tactics, and strategies that can be useful for engineering students or young professionals as they begin their careers. In this discussion, you'll discover: Sol's journey to becoming a mentor to young engineers...01:30The most important thing for a young engineer job seeker to remember...05:15Communication skills are just as important as your network...07:30Toastmasters a terrific tool to increase public speaking and communication skills...10:05The best ways to begin building your network...12:30Introverts can succeed in building a great network!...16:00Ways for a new job seeker to set themselves apart from the rest...22:10Which certifications and licenses should you pursue?....27:00Recruitment strategies for firms who are looking for quality employees...32:00The unique services Sol provides with his company, SR Engineering...35:30And much more!Resources mentioned: ToastmastersThe Fine Art of Small TalkNever Eat AloneAbout the guest: "The Engineering Mentor" It’s about realizing that the skills and credentials that truly matter in having a successful engineering career are not necessarily the ones that everyone thinks they are. I went to an Ivy League school and have a BS and MS in Mechanical Engineering. I have over 17 years experience in the mechanical/energy engineering field. Along the way, I gained several solid licenses/certifications; most notably my PE (Professional Engineer) and CEM(Certified Energy Manager) licensure.  So you’d think I have it made, right? Well not exactly. As I have reached greater and greater success in my career, I have come to understand that it is just the foundation. To truly build a successful career, you need other skills that I call one’s “peripheral” skills. What are these skills? They are primarily: Developing a network – Do you know that most jobs are attained through connections. Do you have these connections to find a good job? What would you do if you were fired tomorrow?Social/communication skills – Public speaking, writing, making first impressions, interviewing with confidence etc.Continuing education, licensing – Not all licenses are created equal. It’s important to know how to determine the valuable ones and not waste your time on secondary ones.Over the years, I have been helped along by many great bosses & supervisors who have been mentors to me.
