Author Stephen Cope Discusses Discovering the Great Work of Your Life

I have not been stirred by a book or a message like the one I discovered reading author Stephen Cope’s book The Great Work of Your Life. Many of my colleagues today search for work that provides meaning and purpose as they navigate the final third of their working career, myself included. Cope’s book taught me what questions to ask and what types of answers to listen for.

The World View of Our Next Gen Workforce: A Chat w My 18 Year Old Daughter

Known variously as the iGen or Gen Z, the next generation workforce has experienced some doozies that will shape their take on the workplace and our world in general: Covid, election disputes, Afghanistan, vaccine division. The list goes on. How will it impact them? My guest is my 18 year old daughter the day before my wife and I took her to college. I interrupt her and my conversation to add context to what my generational studies have revealed about her world and the workplace’s future.

The Story Behind Today’s Extraordinary Lumber Prices – A Perfect Storm of Events

Why are lumber prices at an all time high? Is it Covid? Labor shortages? Tariffs? It’s all of the above plus many more things including the freeze in Texas last year that froze chemical plants, too few long-haul truckers, bugs in Canada, Chinese goods through Vietnam. The list is overwhelming. It’s a perfect storm of random events and there appears to be no end in sight. Bert Scarbrough of Premier Lumber and homebuilder Brian Robertson give me the details.

REPLAY: Kieron Elliot is the US Brand Ambassador for The Macallan Scotch Whiskey

We can’t get enough of this guy. Kieron Elliot had us at “sláinte” (pronounced SLAN-ja and meaning “cheers!”) when I heard him giving a presentation on Instagram. He agreed to be on What’s Working and we discuss The Macallan’s plans for bringing Millennials into their brand and he walks me through how to taste two of their signature bottlings for the US – The Macallan 12 and 15 Double Cask. Per Kieron, “chew it.” Chewing it gets the salivary glands involved.

Long Term Care – How It Works and Why You Need To Know About It

Many parents expect their kids to take care of them when they get old. The kids have no plans to do so. Many kids think they’ll receive a fat inheritance when their parents die. The parents will spend every penny to stay alive with some quality of life. And it’s here that long term care insurance becomes important. With a great number of friends assisting aging parents, this topic has landed on high on my radar. 

Also, a commentary from friend of show David Webb on a recent disheartening trip he took to New Orleans.
