"Nice Business!" Podcast
“Ruthlessly” use human kindness and decency when becoming the best business owner/manager you can be. After all, would you rather be loved or feared by your team?
Richard Train from Richard L Train Consulting, LLC talks with Jim Bob Howard about how to help business leaders uncover those pesky "drama problems" that quietly drain performance: poor communication, disengaged teams, toxic staff dynamics, or leadership gaps no one wants to touch, and how to overcome them.

Why You’re Losing Your Best People (and How to Keep Them)
Why are your best people leaving? In this live “Nice Business” session, hosts Jim Bob Howard and Richard Train break down the three drivers behind costly turnover: ineffective management, unclear direction, and shallow recognition.
Then they give you a simple plan to reverse it.
You will learn how to run two “opportunity analysis” meetings that surface smart, specific fixes from managers and staff, how to make your mission real so everyone can connect daily work to the why, and how to tailor recognition so it actually matters. We also share a favorite example from MALK Organics, where a “Dreams Wins” ritual helped unlock loyalty through a turbulent season.
