Mythic Talent’s Post

Heard this in my first meeting of the day! “Wise man learns from his mistakes, Wiser man learns from the mistakes of others, The one who has all of the answers and who knows everything, is the fool in the room. “ One of the many reasons I love mentoring the next generation of investors and entrepreneurs because if they take the opportunity to learn from the silly things I’ve done they will be better for it. One of my peers in my role before joining Allied Federal Solutions LLC always used a term from the Bible of “Seek Wise Counsel” which I’m getting better at but always have room to grow. In this new role I’m getting to learn from some brilliant corporate officers on how to build culture, build the right team, and how to serve your team. Onward and upward.

I think the biggest key to success is surrounding yourself with people who inspire you. Last night I was in a room full of people that inspire me every day to be better not only for myself, but for my clients. This past year with New York Life has developed my professionalism in ways I never imagined, and I can’t wait to see what my team and I accomplish in 2024. We’re just getting started ✨🏆 #newyorklife #2024kickoff #financialservices

Never when we sat down for that coffee all those years ago did I think we would end up here. Very proud of all that we have achieved over the past two years, the incredible team we have and the wonderful group of clients we have built. Smartest, most genuine, hardworking bloke there is. Honour and privledge to learn and spend majority of most days with you! Could write a list as long as the Nile about what I’ve learnt from JB, here’s 5 points that first come to mind; 1. Listen, listen more, take notes, summarise in writing, engage any expert you can to upskill and better understand the problem, turn the world over to find the most powerful solution. 2. If you find yourself with a few spare minutes having finished a meeting early, driving or walking to lunch, spend this time calling your team members to check in, this will be invaluable to both you and them. 3. No matter how busy you are, always make the time to stay connected and engaged with your network, a quick text is all it takes. 4. Respect and celebrate the achievements of our peers, their success makes us better and drives us forward as an industry. The quote I love from JB most is, “there’s enough clients out there for everyone.” 5. Always remember, we aren’t saving lives. Your family and your health always come first. One of a kind JB.

Every month we schedule our All Hands Meeting with every single person on our team: 1/ We lay everything on the table: From financials to project updates, and even our challenges like churn. No hidden figures, just real, impactful insights. 2/ Transparent ventures: Every new project is fully disclosed. We celebrate wins and learn from setbacks together. 3/ Truth first: We deal in facts, valuing honesty as the key to motivation and trust. 4/ Value-driven recognition: We end each month by honoring a team member who exemplifies our commitment to going the extra mile for real impact.

Sometimes just taking a deep breath and engaging in our playful sides is exactly what we need to reset and reengage in news ways in the business. Love this reminder Hayley that laughter, creativity, teamwork, and play can have a significant impact on our connections and our joy. #wellness #joy #teamwork #impact #BusinessPerformance

To any leaders in tech reading this, remember this today: your team's success is your success, and your success is your team’s success. We all need to celebrate the wins more. It can be too easy to just wait and then the time has passed! What's one thing your team nailed recently?  Share it proudly! It's these moments that build team spirit and drive everyone forward.

When people ask me about our team, I tell them, "We're a take-the-stairs kind of team." We get the job done, and we get it done confidently. I share this to celebrate our best-performing quarter in company history; honestly, this credit truly goes to every team member. From product and engineering, we discuss what might be one of our most productive quarters and the massive success behind our broadcast solution for the continuous IP we architect. From the Account Management, Support, and Insights teams, listening to our customers' needs and mobilizing that into action through our Operations, we are truly moving as one to serve our industry. But one of my partners deserves a ton of love today: That person is Mike Pycha, for delivering our best revenue in the quarter to date in company history across our super talented sales, insights and account management teams. This is a team effort, but I am lucky to have partners I can lean on, like Mike, who are dependable and consistently deliver. I can't wait to break it again next quarter 🤣

At Helix, we are servant-leaders charged to EQUIP, LEAD & IMPACT as we partner with our family of organizations boldly into the future. Tomorrow a group of employees will start their dream-storming session together and dig into what The Dream Manager is really all about! 🙌🏽 As Matthew Kelly stated best: “A company can only become the-best-version-of-itself to the extent that its employees are becoming better versions of themselves."   We truly can’t wait to see where this leads. But we value our employees, we value their dreams and we see it to be a top priority to pour into our organizations to help them achieve the next level of greatness. LET’S GROW TOGETHER AS A TEAM + AS INDIVIDUALS. 🚀

If your business improves by just 1% every week, in two years you’ll have a completely different business 🚀 It's a belief I’ve always championed at Uniform Group Whether it’s a great new hire, a client win, a team event that strengthens bonds, or a meeting where client services, strategy, and creative align—each step, no matter how small, gets you closer to where you want to be. And over time, those small wins add up to something significant. An environment of growth and improvement helps you on the tougher days when obstacles arise. Every experience, whether a win or a setback, is a lesson to help you move forward. That’s why it’s vital to stay engaged with your teams: celebrate the wins, tackle the challenges together, identify areas for improvement (even when things are going well), and always be ready to make the necessary changes. Because when growth becomes your habit, success becomes inevitable. 📷 'tackling the challenges' (and getting wet) together at our annual team away-day in Yorkshire this summer... 🛶 💪

This week, QBRs are at the center. I couldn’t be prouder of the development and dedication of my team members. It’s incredible to see how much we’ve achieved together. We also noticed that the small things make a big impact: 💬 Explaining the Purpose of Meetings: When everyone understands the "why," it transforms the "how" and "what." Clear objectives lead to more productive discussions and outcomes. 📧 Following Up After Meetings: Consistent follow-ups ensure accountability and keep us all on track. It’s a simple practice that reinforces our commitments and drives progress. 💙 Kindness Costs Nothing: A positive attitude and a few kind words go a long way. Supporting each other not only boosts morale but also fosters a culture of engagement. Thank you to each team member for your hard work! Let’s continue to grow, innovate, and work on our mission to become the best salespeople within Infront.
