Even the Trainers...Train. A Back-Story from Tero International
Tuesday Jul 31, 2018
Tuesday Jul 31, 2018
Even the trainers get...trained. Here are several conversations with trainers from Tero International. We think you'll find this interestin. The back-story is that we were invited to go and be part of the training session for Tero and then sat down with several of the Tero Trainers to ask about the experience. What is it that makes Tero International different when it comes to culture and to education….and, to the broader point…what does this mean to the clients they serve. We kick it off by asking the founder of Tero International, Ro Crosbie, "Why train trainers?"

We had the opportunity to broadcast from and record a number of interviews at the recent convention and education event of the Association of Chamber of Commerce Executives (ACCE). During that time we were surprised at how many people in cities and villages across the United States are working on issues like wage growth, affordable housing, skills training, employment opportunities and issues of equality. We asked the new President/CEO of ACCE, Sheree Anne Kelly about that and more in this conversation. And...if it sounds like we're "gushing" a bit...yep.

The Los Angeles Area Chamber - Creating Hope for Hundreds
Thursday Jul 26, 2018
Thursday Jul 26, 2018
When I saw that Gerry Feeney was with the Los Angeles Area Chamber of Commerce we didn't know what to expect. Were we going to talk about Hollywood or bold new social and economic programs? It turned out it was the latter. Gerry has quite a story about how the Chamber and the County are working at finding work for hundreds which, in turn, gets them out of a life of crime and into the workforce. It turns out that this approach is not only cheaper than jail but also provides each person with hope. At the end of our conversation you'll learn what his motivation has been. From our time together at the Association of Chamber of Commerece Executives (ACCE) meet Gerry Feeney the Director of Smart Justice; it's a great story about creating hope for hundreds...
