Tanya Hart Little, a Baby Boomer, admitted that maybe there’s something she didn’t know. In her new commercial real estate brokerage, Hart Commercial, she needed young, ambitious, and agressive talent. At the time, Tanya was mentoring Allison Johnston Frizzo, a Millennial. Through their relationship, then friendship, and now business partnership, Tanya realized that the historic model of the senior people in the industry know the most, know what’s best, and know how to get things done was broken. Tanya gave her young team some direction, worked to shape the company goals, and offered lots of leeway and then let them run with it. The result? Overwhelming success in a much shorter amount of time than anyone could have predicted.

“Urban forest” sounds like an oxymoron unless you’re Beau Brodbeck. Beau teaches the finer points of the how, when, where, and why of trees in urban landscapes. I was introduced to him through a listener who had just been in one of his seminars and emailed me to say “You gotta have him on” and when I chatted with him I knew she was right. It’s amazing how trees influence the value of commerical property, and how we repeatedly do the wrong things when trying to enhance property by planting trees. And how we often plant them in such a way that their failue is all but assured.

John Shell is an Eagle Scout candidate in the Mobile area. He identified a project where small artifical reefs could be used on docks along the Alabama Gulf Coast to create homes for barnacles and oysters to filter the sediments and pollutants and, hopefully, clear the waters and he put his head down and got started. His initial goal of 100 reefs was quickly surpassed as people loved the idea and jumped on board with him. Hear his story and learn how you can help, too.

If a mistake is predictable we should be able to prevent it. However, normal people continue to make the same money mistakes over and over again. Arindam Nag was a reporter for some of the most well-known financial publications and is today educating consumers because he saw so many mistakes being repeated. “There has to be a better way to educate people,” he thought. His boot-strapped start-up, Centsai.com, is his answer to his question.

Marty Strong’s time as a Navy SEAL taught him how to plan for the unknown, evaluate his assets, and utilize whatever was given to him. This method of thinking then made Marty a business success. Frustrated with the lack of actionable lessons in business books, he wrote Be Nimble to offer the lessons he learned with the SEALs, how they applied to business, and how you and I can apply these lessons to our life, too.
