    Unlocking Gen Z’s Potential at Work with Linda Perry

    In this episode of Career Can Do, Mary Ann Faremouth and mindset coach, Linda Perry, dive into the unique strengths and challenges of Gen Z as they enter today’s workforce. Linda, a former attorney turned coach, highlights how Gen Z’s emotional intelligence and adaptability set them apart. However, they face new challenges: shaped by a digital-first world and impacted by remote work, many Gen Z workers lack the in-person mentorship older generations had, often leading to a disconnect in communication and expectations. Linda emphasizes the importance of leaders bridging this gap by understanding each team member’s motivations and strengths. She encourages leaders to mentor younger employees in finding purpose and confidence, making the workplace more inclusive of Gen Z’s fresh perspectives on balance and well-being. Her approach shows how, by better understanding both ourselves and our teams, leaders can foster a workplace that thrives across generations.

    Unlocking Team Potential Through Vulnerable Leadership with Benedikt Oehman

    What does it take to build trust in an organization where change is constant? In this episode of Career Can Do, Mary Ann Faremouth discusses this with Benedikt Oehmen, who shares a fresh perspective on leadership dynamics in fast-moving environments. Benedikt speaks candidly about the importance of transparency and integrity, emphasizing, "Trust isn’t something you ask for; it’s something you earn, consistently." Benedikt also goes into the concept of vulnerability in leadership, which he believes is often misunderstood. He says, "Being vulnerable isn’t about exposing weaknesses; it’s about showing your team that you’re human, too." This vulnerability, combined with a clear vision, is what helps leaders connect with their teams on a deeper level, encouraging innovation and resilience in times of uncertainty. He argues that when leaders embrace this mindset, they not only build stronger relationships but also create an environment where people feel safe to take risks and grow. We explore his journey of cultivating trust through open communication and a shared sense of purpose. He reflects on the challenges leaders face in balancing short-term demands with long-term vision, offering insights on how to create a culture where people feel empowered to speak up. Benedikt explains how fostering a culture of accountability and clarity can transform not only teams but entire organizations.

    Breaking the Degree Myth When Hiring with Dr. Donald McNeeley

    What if the future of hiring focused more on real-world impact than a college degree? In this episode of Career Can Do, Mary Ann Faremouth chats with Dr. Donald McNeeley, Executive Chairman of Chicago Tube and Iron and a professor at Northwestern University, about how hiring practices are evolving and what it means for both employers and candidates. Dr. McNeeley makes a thought-provoking point: someone without a degree could hit the ground running and make a significant impact from day one, while a degree-holder might take years to deliver real results. He argues that when it comes to hiring, experience and practical skills should take center stage, especially in fields like sales where immediate contribution matters. He encourages employers to keep an open mind when it comes to qualifications. Sure, some positions need specific certifications, but many don’t. By focusing on what candidates can actually do rather than rigid requirements, companies can attract top talent. As Dr. McNeeley quotes Richard Branson, "Train people well enough so they can leave. Treat them well enough so they don’t want to." Dr. McNeeley also questions the effectiveness of standardized tests in college admissions, highlighting their cultural biases and lack of real-world predictive power. For him, emotional intelligence (EQ) should be prioritized over intellectual ability (IQ). “Empathy isn't just a nice-to-have in leadership,” he notes. “It’s essential for collaboration and innovation.” So, what’s the takeaway for job seekers and employers? For candidates, staying humble, seeing your career as a marathon, and finding mentors is key. For employers, creating a fun and engaging work environment boosts morale and retention—sometimes simple social events can make all the difference. Resources: Faremouth.com

    Mastering Media and Networking for Career Success with Kevin Price

    Have you ever wondered why some people seem to effortlessly climb the career ladder while others, equally skilled, struggle to advance? The answer often lies in a crucial, yet sometimes overlooked, element: strategic networking. This episode is a special feature, originally published on the Price of Business show, where Kevin Price hosted Mary Ann Faremouth. They dive deep into the art of strategic networking, emphasizing that it’s not merely about attending events, collecting business cards, or adding connections on LinkedIn. Instead, it’s about cultivating genuine, meaningful relationships that can open doors to new opportunities. Kevin Price highlights the significance of engaging with platforms that align with your professional aspirations. He discusses how contributing to industry-relevant media, participating in podcasts, or attending niche events not only showcases your expertise but also connects you with like-minded professionals who share your goals. These interactions can propel you into new realms of visibility and influence, creating opportunities that might not be accessible otherwise. But strategic networking goes beyond just seeking out connections—it’s about providing value to others as well. Whether it’s sharing insights, offering support, or collaborating on projects, the most successful networkers approach relationships with a mindset of mutual benefit. This reciprocity builds trust and establishes a solid foundation for long-term, fruitful connections. Networking isn’t just about what others can do for you—it’s also about how you can help them succeed. By being genuinely interested in others' success and offering your own expertise, you create a network that is not just a tool for advancement but a community that supports and elevates each other. As Pablo Picasso wisely said, "The meaning of life is to find your gift. The purpose of life is to give it away." In your career, this translates to sharing your knowledge, experiences, and insights with your network, not just to benefit yourself but to help others thrive as well. In doing so, your network becomes one of the most powerful assets in your career, opening doors to opportunities you never imagined possible.

    Why Networking and Ethics Drive Success with Jerry Brookshire

    Have you ever thought about how competitors can also be your biggest allies? In a world driven by competition, the National Association of Steel Pipe Distributors (NASPD) does things differently. According to President Jerry Brookshire, the NASPD isn’t just a professional group—it’s a close-knit community built on trust and long-term relationships. Jerry emphasizes that, despite being a nationwide industry, the steel pipe world feels small because of the shared commitment to ethical practices and mutual support among its members. “We all compete, but we also help each other,” he says. Networking in the NASPD transcends the traditional exchange of business cards; it’s about forging genuine connections with people who share your values and standards. This approach fosters a unique environment where collaboration thrives alongside competition, benefiting everyone involved. Membership in NASPD is selective, ensuring that each distributor, service provider, or industry partner upholds the highest ethical standards. This selective nature contributes to the value of being part of NASPD, as it’s not merely about competing for market share but about advancing the industry together through shared insights and support. The association’s conferences are a prime example of this philosophy in action. These events not only offer opportunities for networking and education but also serve as platforms for members to engage in meaningful conversations about industry trends and challenges. Beyond the business side, these gatherings nurture personal connections that fortify the community and create a collaborative spirit. For those intrigued by the prospect, attending as a guest before committing to membership allows for a firsthand experience of the NASPD’s unique environment. Some of the upcoming Events: Kansas City Conference: September 18th - 22nd 50th Anniversary in San Antonio: February 19th - 22nd 2025 Vancouver & Charleston in Summer and Fall of 2025! For businesses dedicated to long-term success, joining NASPD represents more than just a membership; it’s an investment in both your business and the broader industry, creating a foundation for sustained growth and partnership.

    How Effective Onboarding Drives Success with Russel Treat

    What if the secret to unlocking your team's potential lies in how you onboard and align them with your company's culture? In this special episode of Career Can Do, host Mary Ann Faremouth takes a unique turn by sharing her recent guest appearance on Russel Treat's podcast - Pipeline Technology Podcast. Mary Ann reveals how a strategic approach to onboarding and understanding employee motivations can significantly enhance both recruitment success and retention. Mary Ann highlights the importance of personalized onboarding. While basic training is essential, the real difference comes from tailoring the process to each individual’s needs and goals. A hiring manager’s role extends beyond just integrating a new hire; it involves ensuring they remain engaged, productive, and aligned with the company's objectives. She shares an illustrative interview scenario: one candidate’s technical achievements and another’s story of helping a child join a baseball team. For a sales role, the latter’s empathy and team spirit were seen as more valuable, showing that personal traits can outweigh technical skills in certain contexts. Mary Ann advocates for setting clear 90-day and 180-day objectives for new hires. This approach allows companies to evaluate a new employee’s impact and adjust goals as needed, fostering flexibility and responsiveness to their contributions. The conversation also touches on the significance of aligning employee goals with personal values. Mary Ann advises hiring managers to understand what drives each employee and ensure their roles reflect these motivations. This alignment can boost job satisfaction and retention. Finally, Mary Ann emphasizes the critical role of cultural fit. Fitting into a company's culture can be even more crucial than compensation, impacting overall job satisfaction and long-term success. Addressing cultural mismatches early can prevent dissatisfaction and help both the employee and the organization thrive. Tune in to discover how refining your onboarding process and understanding cultural fit can transform your hiring practices and drive team success.

This question is central to the latest episode of the Career Can Do podcast, where host Mary Ann Faremouth engages with Tom Fox, the innovative founder of the Compliance Podcast Network.

Tom underscores the importance of strong compliance frameworks, especially in high-risk sectors like energy, where effective risk management is essential. Tom’s personal journey is equally inspiring. After a severe bike accident, he transforms this challenge into an opportunity for growth, using his resilience to build a successful global practice from his home. His story illustrates how adversity can become a powerful catalyst for professional success. Podcasting also plays a significant role in Tom’s career, providing a platform to enhance his brand and open new business opportunities. Both Tom and Mary Ann champion the power of podcasting, highlighting its potential to establish thought leadership, build professional brands, and create meaningful connections within the industry. They encourage professionals and businesses to use podcasting as a strategic tool for career and business growth.
