In this episode - our host Craig O’Neill welcomes (now) familiar friend of the show, Evan Wisner to have some fun telling a Halloween story. Evan and his brother both enjoy the art of story telling and in this episode we get a chance to hear a story that was based on Evan’s own experiences in the woods of Northern Michigan.

Story Telling is an old art form, and one that takes a great deal of practice - and after hearing the story Evan and Craig discuss a few of the ingredients to a good story - and invite Speak Up Listeners to have a good time listening to the details of the story and how it is told.

      The Toolbox is Last to Leave, First is the Heart
      By Joe Marconi in Joe's Blog
         0 comments
      It always amazes me when I hear about a technician who quits one repair shop to go work at another shop for less money. I know you have heard of this too, and you’ve probably asked yourself, “Can this be true? And Why?” The answer rests within the culture of the company. More specifically, the boss, manager, or a toxic work environment literally pushed the technician out the door.
      While money and benefits tend to attract people to a company, it won’t keep them there. When a technician begins to look over the fence for greener grass, that is usually a sign that something is wrong within the workplace. It also means that his or her heart is probably already gone. If the issue is not resolved, no amount of money will keep that technician for the long term. The heart is always the first to leave. The last thing that leaves is the technician’s toolbox.
      Shop owners: Focus more on employee retention than acquisition. This is not to say that you should not be constantly recruiting. You should. What it does means is that once you hire someone, your job isn’t over, that’s when it begins. Get to know your technicians. Build strong relationships. Have frequent one-on-ones. Engage in meaningful conversation. Find what truly motivates your technicians. You may be surprised that while money is a motivator, it’s usually not the prime motivator.
      One last thing; the cost of technician turnover can be financially devastating. It also affects shop morale. Do all you can to create a workplace where technicians feel they are respected, recognized, and know that their work contributes to the overall success of the company. This will lead to improved morale and team spirit. Remember, when you see a technician’s toolbox rolling out of the bay on its way to another shop, the heart was most likely gone long before that.

      In this episode - our host, Craig O’Neill welcomes two guests from his home Toastmasters club , Dylan Jayce and Evan Wisner.
      While Evan is familiar to our loyal listeners as - Dylan will be a new voice - and you’ll hear about the journey Dylan has been on as he represented Grand Rapids Toastmasters - Club 404 in the recent Area level speaking competition.
      That’s right - there is such a thing as competitive speaking!
      The title for today’s episode is worth noting - as it is the theme selected for the year from current Club 404’s President, Mark Amos.  “Show up and Show Out” 
      This is exactly what the club did on Feb 22 - when Dylan won 1st place in the Area contest over two other very accomplished speakers.
      Dylan is particularly inspiring in this episode as he articulates the impact that the show of support from club members had on his journey.  While he considers himself an introvert, Dylan demonstrates that a commitment to growth, and a great support network, can enable you to do things you might never imagine you could. 
      The episode is further enriched with Evan Wisner’s keen insight, and how he shares, along with Craig, regarding their perspective of Dylan’s progress through the years and recent weeks.
      Join this conversation and you will gain a greater understanding of what a great Toastmasters club can look like, how friendships form around embracing discomfort, and how remarkable individuals contribute to a winning culture.
