The Future of Trust Building with Brian Mohr E21

In this episode of The Future of Work: Water Cooler Conversations, Jen and Kyle are joined by Brian Mohr, the co-founder of anthym. Brian shares how his early business experiences including being one of the first employees at jobing.com shaped his belief around what makes a high performing team. He shared the two types of trust he has observed people on teams have and how to increase levels of trust within an organization.

He also shared updates on his latest venture, anthym. A unique trust building platform for teams to connect and share lived experiences through music. Brian believes meaningful team building activities for teams will be vital to the success of organizations as we move forward.

Anyone who is a part of a team, a manager or in a leadership role should listen to this jam packed episode. Brian discusses what he has seen teams and organizations do well and not so well. He also breaks down the two types of trust within a team and the role they both play. This is a thought provoking episode as we explore how to replace the organic “water cooler” moments that used to happen organically in the office with more intentional and trust building activities to ensure trust remains as we are not physically together each day.

anthym is a social wellness company focused on helping organizations unleash the relationship capital amongst their teams to create more value for their entire stakeholder ecosystem. They do this by helping each team member reflect on and catalog important moments from their lives and then bring the experience to life through an interactive virtual story sharing workshop.

Brian has had amazing career experiences at Jobing.com, P.F. Chang’s China Bistro, Y Scouts and Conscious Capitalism Arizona. Today, Brian is channeling his experiences and energy towards unlocking the power of authentic human connection through his new startup, anthym, a social wellness company focused on helping culture-driven organizations create and nurture meaningful relationships amongst their people to create more value, both for the business and the people.

Plan Your Work and Work Your Plan E14

Collaborative Connections Radio Show and Podcast features entrepreneurs, local businesses, and community organizations to bring people together and foster collaboration in our community.

In this episode, host Kelly Lorenzen had the pleasure of featuring special guests Dena Patton, CEO of Dena Patton Coaching and Training, Marisa Benoit, Ph.D. Founder of Corinthian Spirit Consulting, and Suzanne McDonald, CEO of Angels & Insights, ROIinU, and Newport Interactive Marketing.

If you are looking for sales and marketing tips, entrepreneurship insights, and/or coaching for your business or college-age child, you won’t want to miss this episode of Collaborative Connections.

Here are a few of Kelly’s takeaways from the show…

1) Sales is different from marketing
2) Plan early and often whether it is for college, a new career, or growing your business
3) Work on your business, not just in it if you want to grow
4) Set short-term and long-term goals for schooling and in business
5) Hire people/Outsource for the things you are not good at
6) Stay in your brilliant lane to grow
7) Growing your network one of the keys to growing your business

For the past 20 years Dena Patton has been a leading coach and speaker on the topic of greatness mindset and business growth. Her unique Greatness Methodology has changed the lives of thousands of leaders who are building epic things they never dreamt were possible.

She focuses on working with business owners to take their sales, leadership and systems to new epic levels of success. She also coaches executive leaders in their mindset and leadership to help them elevate their results to become the leaders they were born to be.

When it comes to training programs she is the ‘un-corporate’ trainer who takes teams to NEW levels of communication, innovation and greatness. She is passionate about companies winning with their culture, their teams and their bottom line.

She opened her coaching and training company in 2001 in NYC and moved to Phoenix in 2002. Since then she has worked with clients from every industry from tech, hospitality, construction to education, including celebrities and top founders.

Dena Patton started her first business, a PR & marketing company serving the entertainment industry, at the age of 24 while she was living in New York City. In 1999 at the age of 27 she experienced a minor stroke, and during her recovery had to learn how to speak again.

In her year of recovery, Dena realized her calling was much bigger than her marketing company. So she sold her business to a start-up Internet company and became their Director of Marketing as she recovered. It was the first year of the internet and they built a community of 70,000 subscribers which has since become the #1 global leader in its industry. In 2001 she left that start-up to start her coaching and training company and has been helping people do epic things ever since.

She speaks about greatness mindset and leadership nationwide and has garnered 9 business awards and over 90 media stories including CNN, Entrepreneur magazine, First Women, NBC, and Business Journal.

Her book, The Greatness Game, hit #1 on Amazon Best Seller list which support people’s greatness mindset while pushing them out of their comfort zone to accomplish their biggest goals.

The transition between high school and college, and then college and joining the workforce or further education, can be difficult and it often feels like there isn’t an adequate roadmap.

Corinthian Spirit Consulting works with students and parents to develop a passage plan through these uncharted and often turbulent waters by focusing on clear communication of goals and accountability.

Using a personalized approach built on the Oxford model of tutorial teaching, Marisa Benoit works with students to develop time management, goal setting, writing and presentation skills, and improved communication. Building confidence and honing executive function skills equips students to successfully navigate through the challenges of higher education and life itself.

Corinthian Spirit Consulting has recently branched out to include translating expert knowledge into teachable material for online course design and delivery. Working with solopreneurs and small businesses, CSC identifies and bridges the gap between expert and novice in order to make subject expert knowledge teachable and accessible for students.

Marisa Benoit, Ph.D. grew up in a in a small town on the coast of Maine and attended Yale University, graduating with a B.A. with Honors in History in 2005. After Yale, she worked as an analyst and consultant for a healthcare company while saving for graduate school. She then moved to the U.K. to pursue her dream – a M.Sc. in the History of Science, Medicine, and Technology and Ph.D. in the History of Medicine from Oxford University.

While at Oxford, she taught undergraduates and devoted much of her time to strengthening relationships between current Oxford students and alumni societies in Europe and North America.

Marisa has worked in different industries, but her true love is education and working with young people, which led her to start her own business, Corinthian Spirit Consulting. Her time at Oxford made her realize that she was interested in helping her students make a plan for ‘what’s next’, whether it was their first jobs or graduate school.

Learning from her personal educational journey and work history (always intertwined), she works with students to articulate their goals and make detailed plans about how to achieve them. A lifelong sailor, her own journey towards her goal of a Ph.D. included ‘shipping out’ for two years and living and working onboard yachts in between degrees. Marisa learned how to adapt and adjust to challenges along the way and make changes in her plan but not lose sight of the overall goal.

Amanda Stradling is a professional Tai chi instructor who has been teaching for 18 years. She teaches in many settings, such as retirement communities, after school programs, gyms, churches, weight loss groups, dance studios, and many private lessons.

Her passion is health. In her years of teaching she has found that improving someone’s physical health elevates every part of that person’s life. She loves to help her students achieve that type of personal growth.

Now she works with the East Valley Leader Lab to help bring health and harmony to people’s work life.
