A Keynote speaker for Philadelphia's Abington High School 68th National Honors Society induction ceremony. In addition, entered into the 2023 Hall of Fame for Business along side other famous alumni. Paying it forward to Abington Senior High School is very important to Mr. Blank. As such, he endows a scholarship each year for students that plan on majoring in a world language at the university level. Breaking Free and Embracing New Opportunities Mike, if you can get past your parents' guilt, you can live anywhere in the world as well. So I decided to take the chance and stay. And while I was there, I worked at my friend's center for four years and not at sea level, but I got to see the inside and out of a call center industry. And then in my mid-30s, I threw my hat in the ring and next thing you know, started my own center. Creating Company Culture and Making Decisions I do create my company culture and let them know that I am accountable, will motivate them, but also no surprises. Good, bad or ugly. I have to let them know what's happening in case there's an attrition or something's happening with a list or the script is not working. and would make suggestions and find a way where everyone is comfortable to move forward with certain ideas because I don't always need to win every battle. And Mike, I can fall on many swords. It's not that big of a deal. But ethically, or maybe just from my own experience, I can make an educated decision and share my thoughts with you on why it may be appropriate to change certain words or to approach a client differently. Enhancing Client Communications And most of it is just enhancements. Maybe they don't want to leave voicemails or they don't have an email template written. Or if there's a callback number, someone on their end is not there to answer the call. So that might cause a disruption and not looking to rock the boat. But my man, there is some sort of system that we're working here. We got to make sure that no one's dropping the football because it's not your end, it's our end. Following Family Tradition and Passion So when I'm 18 and I'm choosing my career in college, which was Spanish, my parents were like, why? Why aren't you studying in grandpa in our footsteps, law and finance and economics? I go, well, great grandpa came from Europe at the turn of the century. He didn't speak English and he was a tailor in New York and he started his business. So we're nomads. It's in our blood just because the turn of the century, big deal. I'm doing it the turn of the other century. 2000 is when I left. So I guess we're the same, just 100 years later. But it's the kind of thing, if it's in your blood and your past ancestors took those chances to go to a different country or to build a business or build a family or past family traditions, then why not? That's your flag to hold high. That's your candle that should never go out. and should be spread amongst others. And for me, I'm not starting a tradition. This is my family tradition. It just skipped a generation or two. But oh, no, I can feel it in my blood that this thing was meant to be, and that's why it's been so good for the past 22 years Living Authentically and Making Big Moves You're talking about seriously picking up your spikes and moving to somewhere else, another state or another country. At least do some sort of due diligence. Costa Rica was lucky for me. My friend was here. If there were somewhere else in the world where it was cold or potentially dangerous, maybe I might have not taken that. Or possibly, since I studied Spanish in college and the country did not have Spanish, how much time would it take me to learn that language? I would be starting at scratch. So the stars were aligned. It made it easier for me. My suggestion is to take it in first down to touchdown steps. Maybe just take things of interest first to see if you can keep moving forward. And then when you have everything together, you have your impulse control, maturity, and some cash. Then you take that final step, then go for it. But, you know, those are the sort of things where you only get 100 years and you shouldn't be living someone else's life. You should really be writing your own story. It doesn't need to be so eccentric just to gain attention. You should always have good intentions and good faith. And if you have that sort of stuff, you can make your case to people. Promoting Interpersonal Interaction and Play in the Workplace Recess was the best class in school. That's where you made all your friends and the best relationships are built through play. And why don't we take that away because we are adults? Just because I'm bald and have a white beard doesn't mean I can't enjoy my half an hour with my friends at lunchtime. Let's have a good time. And I've seen people put their phone down and join groups, not go outside for a cigarette, but stay inside to participate. And I think those are the little wins that I can see, one less cigarette and one less screen time and more interpersonal interaction to build on those skills. I can only do so much, Mike. I can't hit the ball and drag Johnny everywhere. But what I can do is to get them to stand tall and to be accountable and to do some dedicated practice outside of the office. So maybe they study words in the thesaurus or watch another movie in English and pull a phrase out of it or ask me a vocabulary word because they found it interesting. I respect that. That's what leaders are made of, the ones that are inquisitive and just try to grow their skills. The Importance of Play and Personal Growth That's where you made all your friends and the best relationships are built through play. And why don't we take that away because we are adults? Just because I'm bald and have a white beard doesn't mean I can't enjoy my half an hour with my friends at lunchtime. Let's have a good time. And I've seen people put their phone down and join groups, not go outside for a cigarette, but stay inside to participate. And I think those are the little wins that I can see, one less cigarette and one less screen time and more interpersonal interaction to build on those skills. I can only do so much, Mike. I can't hit the ball and drag Johnny everywhere. But what I can do is to get them to stand tall and to be accountable and to do some dedicated practice outside of the office. So maybe they study words in the thesaurus or watch another movie in English and pull a phrase out of it or ask me a vocabulary word because they found it interesting. I respect that. That's what leaders are made of, the ones that are inquisitive and just try to grow their skills. Turning Challenging Calls into Opportunities Of course, the bark is worse than the bite. Here's my skinny for somebody. If they hang up on you, it's over. It really is over. How about if they're on the phone screaming at you? That's a different side of the spectrum. But if someone is just testing the waters because they're sea level, or they get so many calls, or you happen to make a good first impression, I think you may be able to readjust the tone. And so in my years, just from my own personal experience, I've been able to ride that wave and ride that bull until the end. and I've converted people and they've become some of my best clients. You know that the best relationships are made is when you go through tough times together or you pass the obstacle course for somebody because they're so black and blue from these phone calls. For more than a decade, he has leveraged dispute resolution practices and lean principles to solve problems, manage projects, and enhance collaboration.

Paying it forward to Abington Senior High School is very important to Mr. Blank. As such, he endows a scholarship each year for students that plan on majoring in a world language at the university level. Breaking Free and Embracing New Opportunities Mike, if you can get past your parents' guilt, you can live anywhere in the world as well. So I decided to take the chance and stay. And while I was there, I worked at my friend's center for four years and not at sea level, but I got to see the inside and out of a call center industry. And then in my mid-30s, I threw my hat in the ring and next thing you know, started my own center. Creating Company Culture and Making Decisions I do create my company culture and let them know that I am accountable, will motivate them, but also no surprises. Good, bad or ugly. I have to let them know what's happening in case there's an attrition or something's happening with a list or the script is not working. and would make suggestions and find a way where everyone is comfortable to move forward with certain ideas because I don't always need to win every battle. And Mike, I can fall on many swords. It's not that big of a deal. But ethically, or maybe just from my own experience, I can make an educated decision and share my thoughts with you on why it may be appropriate to change certain words or to approach a client differently. Enhancing Client Communications And most of it is just enhancements. Maybe they don't want to leave voicemails or they don't have an email template written. Or if there's a callback number, someone on their end is not there to answer the call. So that might cause a disruption and not looking to rock the boat. But my man, there is some sort of system that we're working here. We got to make sure that no one's dropping the football because it's not your end, it's our end. Following Family Tradition and Passion So when I'm 18 and I'm choosing my career in college, which was Spanish, my parents were like, why? Why aren't you studying in grandpa in our footsteps, law and finance and economics? I go, well, great grandpa came from Europe at the turn of the century. He didn't speak English and he was a tailor in New York and he started his business. So we're nomads. It's in our blood just because the turn of the century, big deal. I'm doing it the turn of the other century. 2000 is when I left. So I guess we're the same, just 100 years later. But it's the kind of thing, if it's in your blood and your past ancestors took those chances to go to a different country or to build a business or build a family or past family traditions, then why not? That's your flag to hold high. That's your candle that should never go out. and should be spread amongst others. And for me, I'm not starting a tradition. This is my family tradition. It just skipped a generation or two. But oh, no, I can feel it in my blood that this thing was meant to be, and that's why it's been so good for the past 22 years Living Authentically and Making Big Moves You're talking about seriously picking up your spikes and moving to somewhere else, another state or another country. At least do some sort of due diligence. Costa Rica was lucky for me. My friend was here. If there were somewhere else in the world where it was cold or potentially dangerous, maybe I might have not taken that. Or possibly, since I studied Spanish in college and the country did not have Spanish, how much time would it take me to learn that language? I would be starting at scratch. So the stars were aligned. It made it easier for me. My suggestion is to take it in first down to touchdown steps. Maybe just take things of interest first to see if you can keep moving forward. And then when you have everything together, you have your impulse control, maturity, and some cash. Then you take that final step, then go for it. But, you know, those are the sort of things where you only get 100 years and you shouldn't be living someone else's life. You should really be writing your own story. It doesn't need to be so eccentric just to gain attention. You should always have good intentions and good faith. And if you have that sort of stuff, you can make your case to people. Promoting Interpersonal Interaction and Play in the Workplace Recess was the best class in school. That's where you made all your friends and the best relationships are built through play. And why don't we take that away because we are adults? Just because I'm bald and have a white beard doesn't mean I can't enjoy my half an hour with my friends at lunchtime. Let's have a good time. And I've seen people put their phone down and join groups, not go outside for a cigarette, but stay inside to participate. And I think those are the little wins that I can see, one less cigarette and one less screen time and more interpersonal interaction to build on those skills. I can only do so much, Mike. I can't hit the ball and drag Johnny everywhere. But what I can do is to get them to stand tall and to be accountable and to do some dedicated practice outside of the office. So maybe they study words in the thesaurus or watch another movie in English and pull a phrase out of it or ask me a vocabulary word because they found it interesting. I respect that. That's what leaders are made of, the ones that are inquisitive and just try to grow their skills. The Importance of Play and Personal Growth That's where you made all your friends and the best relationships are built through play. And why don't we take that away because we are adults? Just because I'm bald and have a white beard doesn't mean I can't enjoy my half an hour with my friends at lunchtime. Let's have a good time. And I've seen people put their phone down and join groups, not go outside for a cigarette, but stay inside to participate. And I think those are the little wins that I can see, one less cigarette and one less screen time and more interpersonal interaction to build on those skills. I can only do so much, Mike. I can't hit the ball and drag Johnny everywhere. But what I can do is to get them to stand tall and to be accountable and to do some dedicated practice outside of the office. So maybe they study words in the thesaurus or watch another movie in English and pull a phrase out of it or ask me a vocabulary word because they found it interesting. I respect that. That's what leaders are made of, the ones that are inquisitive and just try to grow their skills. Turning Challenging Calls into Opportunities Of course, the bark is worse than the bite. Here's my skinny for somebody. If they hang up on you, it's over. It really is over. How about if they're on the phone screaming at you? That's a different side of the spectrum. But if someone is just testing the waters because they're sea level, or they get so many calls, or you happen to make a good first impression, I think you may be able to readjust the tone. And so in my years, just from my own personal experience, I've been able to ride that wave and ride that bull until the end. and I've converted people and they've become some of my best clients. You know that the best relationships are made is when you go through tough times together or you pass the obstacle course for somebody because they're so black and blue from these phone calls. For more than a decade, he has leveraged dispute resolution practices and lean principles to solve problems, manage projects, and enhance collaboration.

A Keynote speaker for Philadelphia's Abington High School 68th National Honors Society induction ceremony. In addition, entered into the 2023 Hall of Fame for Business along side other famous alumni. Paying it forward to Abington Senior High School is very important to Mr. Blank. As such, he endows a scholarship each year for students that plan on majoring in a world language at the university level. Breaking Free and Embracing New Opportunities Mike, if you can get past your parents' guilt, you can live anywhere in the world as well. So I decided to take the chance and stay. And while I was there, I worked at my friend's center for four years and not at sea level, but I got to see the inside and out of a call center industry. And then in my mid-30s, I threw my hat in the ring and next thing you know, started my own center. Creating Company Culture and Making Decisions I do create my company culture and let them know that I am accountable, will motivate them, but also no surprises. Good, bad or ugly. I have to let them know what's happening in case there's an attrition or something's happening with a list or the script is not working. and would make suggestions and find a way where everyone is comfortable to move forward with certain ideas because I don't always need to win every battle. And Mike, I can fall on many swords. It's not that big of a deal. But ethically, or maybe just from my own experience, I can make an educated decision and share my thoughts with you on why it may be appropriate to change certain words or to approach a client differently. Enhancing Client Communications And most of it is just enhancements. Maybe they don't want to leave voicemails or they don't have an email template written. Or if there's a callback number, someone on their end is not there to answer the call. So that might cause a disruption and not looking to rock the boat. But my man, there is some sort of system that we're working here. We got to make sure that no one's dropping the football because it's not your end, it's our end. Following Family Tradition and Passion So when I'm 18 and I'm choosing my career in college, which was Spanish, my parents were like, why? Why aren't you studying in grandpa in our footsteps, law and finance and economics? I go, well, great grandpa came from Europe at the turn of the century. He didn't speak English and he was a tailor in New York and he started his business. So we're nomads. It's in our blood just because the turn of the century, big deal. I'm doing it the turn of the other century. 2000 is when I left. So I guess we're the same, just 100 years later. But it's the kind of thing, if it's in your blood and your past ancestors took those chances to go to a different country or to build a business or build a family or past family traditions, then why not? That's your flag to hold high. That's your candle that should never go out. and should be spread amongst others. And for me, I'm not starting a tradition. This is my family tradition. It just skipped a generation or two. But oh, no, I can feel it in my blood that this thing was meant to be, and that's why it's been so good for the past 22 years Living Authentically and Making Big Moves You're talking about seriously picking up your spikes and moving to somewhere else, another state or another country. At least do some sort of due diligence. Costa Rica was lucky for me. My friend was here. If there were somewhere else in the world where it was cold or potentially dangerous, maybe I might have not taken that. Or possibly, since I studied Spanish in college and the country did not have Spanish, how much time would it take me to learn that language? I would be starting at scratch. So the stars were aligned. It made it easier for me. My suggestion is to take it in first down to touchdown steps. Maybe just take things of interest first to see if you can keep moving forward. And then when you have everything together, you have your impulse control, maturity, and some cash. Then you take that final step, then go for it. But, you know, those are the sort of things where you only get 100 years and you shouldn't be living someone else's life. You should really be writing your own story. It doesn't need to be so eccentric just to gain attention. You should always have good intentions and good faith. And if you have that sort of stuff, you can make your case to people. Promoting Interpersonal Interaction and Play in the Workplace Recess was the best class in school. That's where you made all your friends and the best relationships are built through play. And why don't we take that away because we are adults? Just because I'm bald and have a white beard doesn't mean I can't enjoy my half an hour with my friends at lunchtime. Let's have a good time. And I've seen people put their phone down and join groups, not go outside for a cigarette, but stay inside to participate. And I think those are the little wins that I can see, one less cigarette and one less screen time and more interpersonal interaction to build on those skills. I can only do so much, Mike. I can't hit the ball and drag Johnny everywhere. But what I can do is to get them to stand tall and to be accountable and to do some dedicated practice outside of the office. So maybe they study words in the thesaurus or watch another movie in English and pull a phrase out of it or ask me a vocabulary word because they found it interesting. I respect that. That's what leaders are made of, the ones that are inquisitive and just try to grow their skills. The Importance of Play and Personal Growth That's where you made all your friends and the best relationships are built through play. And why don't we take that away because we are adults? Just because I'm bald and have a white beard doesn't mean I can't enjoy my half an hour with my friends at lunchtime. Let's have a good time. And I've seen people put their phone down and join groups, not go outside for a cigarette, but stay inside to participate. And I think those are the little wins that I can see, one less cigarette and one less screen time and more interpersonal interaction to build on those skills. I can only do so much, Mike. I can't hit the ball and drag Johnny everywhere. But what I can do is to get them to stand tall and to be accountable and to do some dedicated practice outside of the office. So maybe they study words in the thesaurus or watch another movie in English and pull a phrase out of it or ask me a vocabulary word because they found it interesting. I respect that. That's what leaders are made of, the ones that are inquisitive and just try to grow their skills. Turning Challenging Calls into Opportunities Of course, the bark is worse than the bite. Here's my skinny for somebody. If they hang up on you, it's over. It really is over. How about if they're on the phone screaming at you? That's a different side of the spectrum. But if someone is just testing the waters because they're sea level, or they get so many calls, or you happen to make a good first impression, I think you may be able to readjust the tone. And so in my years, just from my own personal experience, I've been able to ride that wave and ride that bull until the end. and I've converted people and they've become some of my best clients. You know that the best relationships are made is when you go through tough times together or you pass the obstacle course for somebody because they're so black and blue from these phone calls. For more than a decade, he has leveraged dispute resolution practices and lean principles to solve problems, manage projects, and enhance collaboration.

Richard’s vision quest journey is filled with twists and turns. At 27 years old, he relocated to Costa Rica to train employees for one of the larger call centers in San Jose.

A Keynote speaker for Philadelphia's Abington High School 68th National Honors Society induction ceremony. In addition, entered into the 2023 Hall of Fame for Business along side other famous alumni. Paying it forward to Abington Senior High School is very important to Mr. Blank. As such, he endows a scholarship each year for students that plan on majoring in a world language at the university level. Breaking Free and Embracing New Opportunities Mike, if you can get past your parents' guilt, you can live anywhere in the world as well. So I decided to take the chance and stay. And while I was there, I worked at my friend's center for four years and not at sea level, but I got to see the inside and out of a call center industry. And then in my mid-30s, I threw my hat in the ring and next thing you know, started my own center. Creating Company Culture and Making Decisions I do create my company culture and let them know that I am accountable, will motivate them, but also no surprises. Good, bad or ugly. I have to let them know what's happening in case there's an attrition or something's happening with a list or the script is not working. and would make suggestions and find a way where everyone is comfortable to move forward with certain ideas because I don't always need to win every battle. And Mike, I can fall on many swords. It's not that big of a deal. But ethically, or maybe just from my own experience, I can make an educated decision and share my thoughts with you on why it may be appropriate to change certain words or to approach a client differently. Enhancing Client Communications And most of it is just enhancements. Maybe they don't want to leave voicemails or they don't have an email template written. Or if there's a callback number, someone on their end is not there to answer the call. So that might cause a disruption and not looking to rock the boat. But my man, there is some sort of system that we're working here. We got to make sure that no one's dropping the football because it's not your end, it's our end. Following Family Tradition and Passion So when I'm 18 and I'm choosing my career in college, which was Spanish, my parents were like, why? Why aren't you studying in grandpa in our footsteps, law and finance and economics? I go, well, great grandpa came from Europe at the turn of the century. He didn't speak English and he was a tailor in New York and he started his business. So we're nomads. It's in our blood just because the turn of the century, big deal. I'm doing it the turn of the other century. 2000 is when I left. So I guess we're the same, just 100 years later. But it's the kind of thing, if it's in your blood and your past ancestors took those chances to go to a different country or to build a business or build a family or past family traditions, then why not? That's your flag to hold high. That's your candle that should never go out. and should be spread amongst others. And for me, I'm not starting a tradition. This is my family tradition. It just skipped a generation or two. But oh, no, I can feel it in my blood that this thing was meant to be, and that's why it's been so good for the past 22 years Living Authentically and Making Big Moves You're talking about seriously picking up your spikes and moving to somewhere else, another state or another country. At least do some sort of due diligence. Costa Rica was lucky for me. My friend was here. If there were somewhere else in the world where it was cold or potentially dangerous, maybe I might have not taken that. Or possibly, since I studied Spanish in college and the country did not have Spanish, how much time would it take me to learn that language? I would be starting at scratch. So the stars were aligned. It made it easier for me. My suggestion is to take it in first down to touchdown steps. Maybe just take things of interest first to see if you can keep moving forward. And then when you have everything together, you have your impulse control, maturity, and some cash. Then you take that final step, then go for it. But, you know, those are the sort of things where you only get 100 years and you shouldn't be living someone else's life. You should really be writing your own story. It doesn't need to be so eccentric just to gain attention. You should always have good intentions and good faith. And if you have that sort of stuff, you can make your case to people. Promoting Interpersonal Interaction and Play in the Workplace Recess was the best class in school. That's where you made all your friends and the best relationships are built through play. And why don't we take that away because we are adults? Just because I'm bald and have a white beard doesn't mean I can't enjoy my half an hour with my friends at lunchtime. Let's have a good time. And I've seen people put their phone down and join groups, not go outside for a cigarette, but stay inside to participate. And I think those are the little wins that I can see, one less cigarette and one less screen time and more interpersonal interaction to build on those skills. I can only do so much, Mike. I can't hit the ball and drag Johnny everywhere. But what I can do is to get them to stand tall and to be accountable and to do some dedicated practice outside of the office. So maybe they study words in the thesaurus or watch another movie in English and pull a phrase out of it or ask me a vocabulary word because they found it interesting. I respect that. That's what leaders are made of, the ones that are inquisitive and just try to grow their skills. The Importance of Play and Personal Growth That's where you made all your friends and the best relationships are built through play. And why don't we take that away because we are adults? Just because I'm bald and have a white beard doesn't mean I can't enjoy my half an hour with my friends at lunchtime. Let's have a good time. And I've seen people put their phone down and join groups, not go outside for a cigarette, but stay inside to participate. And I think those are the little wins that I can see, one less cigarette and one less screen time and more interpersonal interaction to build on those skills. I can only do so much, Mike. I can't hit the ball and drag Johnny everywhere. But what I can do is to get them to stand tall and to be accountable and to do some dedicated practice outside of the office. So maybe they study words in the thesaurus or watch another movie in English and pull a phrase out of it or ask me a vocabulary word because they found it interesting. I respect that. That's what leaders are made of, the ones that are inquisitive and just try to grow their skills. Turning Challenging Calls into Opportunities Of course, the bark is worse than the bite. Here's my skinny for somebody. If they hang up on you, it's over. It really is over. How about if they're on the phone screaming at you? That's a different side of the spectrum. But if someone is just testing the waters because they're sea level, or they get so many calls, or you happen to make a good first impression, I think you may be able to readjust the tone. And so in my years, just from my own personal experience, I've been able to ride that wave and ride that bull until the end. and I've converted people and they've become some of my best clients. You know that the best relationships are made is when you go through tough times together or you pass the obstacle course for somebody because they're so black and blue from these phone calls. For more than a decade, he has leveraged dispute resolution practices and lean principles to solve problems, manage projects, and enhance collaboration.

Your 12|30 podcast presented by Mike Solitro. Special guest CEO Richard Blank Welcome to Your 12|30 podcast. We all have a story to tell. Tell yours in 12 questions, 30 minutes. Hosted by Mike Solitro of AccomplishedRE. https://youtu.be/ozpjkK95xxI https://youtu.be/Dwg44crvhZQ https://youtu.be/-LW8zYm5GhU https://youtu.be/f28G1kjIWEc https://youtu.be/arR80qg2xLQ https://youtu.be/1wTHhcLB91o https://youtu.be/9jukOsmJNqs https://youtu.be/eTIOaO96u2I https://youtu.be/qC-9RR3SrB0 Mike Solitro is the Director of AccomplishedRE, a real estate attorney, broker, and hosts the Your 12|30 podcast. Mike graduated from Syracuse University and Suffolk University Law School. He was named a Cape & Plymouth Business Media 40-under-40, and is an alum of both the Cape Cod's Entrepreneurship for All and Leadership Cape Cod programs. Richard’s vision quest journey is filled with twists and turns. At 27 years old, he relocated to Costa Rica to train employees for one of the larger call centers in San Jose.

Mr. Richard Blank holds a bachelors degree in Communication and Spanish from the University of Arizona and a certificate of language proficiency from the University of Sevilla, Spain. A Keynote speaker for Philadelphia's Abington High School 68th National Honors Society induction ceremony. In addition, entered into the 2023 Hall of Fame for Business along side other famous alumni. Paying it forward to Abington Senior High School is very important to Mr. Blank. As such, he endows a scholarship each year for students that plan on majoring in a world language at the university level. Breaking Free and Embracing New Opportunities Mike, if you can get past your parents' guilt, you can live anywhere in the world as well. So I decided to take the chance and stay. And while I was there, I worked at my friend's center for four years and not at sea level, but I got to see the inside and out of a call center industry. And then in my mid-30s, I threw my hat in the ring and next thing you know, started my own center. Creating Company Culture and Making Decisions I do create my company culture and let them know that I am accountable, will motivate them, but also no surprises. Good, bad or ugly. I have to let them know what's happening in case there's an attrition or something's happening with a list or the script is not working. and would make suggestions and find a way where everyone is comfortable to move forward with certain ideas because I don't always need to win every battle. And Mike, I can fall on many swords. It's not that big of a deal. But ethically, or maybe just from my own experience, I can make an educated decision and share my thoughts with you on why it may be appropriate to change certain words or to approach a client differently. Enhancing Client Communications And most of it is just enhancements. Maybe they don't want to leave voicemails or they don't have an email template written. Or if there's a callback number, someone on their end is not there to answer the call. So that might cause a disruption and not looking to rock the boat. But my man, there is some sort of system that we're working here. We got to make sure that no one's dropping the football because it's not your end, it's our end. Following Family Tradition and Passion So when I'm 18 and I'm choosing my career in college, which was Spanish, my parents were like, why? Why aren't you studying in grandpa in our footsteps, law and finance and economics? I go, well, great grandpa came from Europe at the turn of the century. He didn't speak English and he was a tailor in New York and he started his business. So we're nomads. It's in our blood just because the turn of the century, big deal. I'm doing it the turn of the other century. 2000 is when I left. So I guess we're the same, just 100 years later. But it's the kind of thing, if it's in your blood and your past ancestors took those chances to go to a different country or to build a business or build a family or past family traditions, then why not? That's your flag to hold high. That's your candle that should never go out. and should be spread amongst others. And for me, I'm not starting a tradition. This is my family tradition. It just skipped a generation or two. But oh, no, I can feel it in my blood that this thing was meant to be, and that's why it's been so good for the past 22 years Living Authentically and Making Big Moves You're talking about seriously picking up your spikes and moving to somewhere else, another state or another country. At least do some sort of due diligence. Costa Rica was lucky for me. My friend was here. If there were somewhere else in the world where it was cold or potentially dangerous, maybe I might have not taken that. Or possibly, since I studied Spanish in college and the country did not have Spanish, how much time would it take me to learn that language? I would be starting at scratch. So the stars were aligned. It made it easier for me. My suggestion is to take it in first down to touchdown steps. Maybe just take things of interest first to see if you can keep moving forward. And then when you have everything together, you have your impulse control, maturity, and some cash. Then you take that final step, then go for it. But, you know, those are the sort of things where you only get 100 years and you shouldn't be living someone else's life. You should really be writing your own story. It doesn't need to be so eccentric just to gain attention. You should always have good intentions and good faith. And if you have that sort of stuff, you can make your case to people. Promoting Interpersonal Interaction and Play in the Workplace Recess was the best class in school. That's where you made all your friends and the best relationships are built through play. And why don't we take that away because we are adults? Just because I'm bald and have a white beard doesn't mean I can't enjoy my half an hour with my friends at lunchtime. Let's have a good time. And I've seen people put their phone down and join groups, not go outside for a cigarette, but stay inside to participate. And I think those are the little wins that I can see, one less cigarette and one less screen time and more interpersonal interaction to build on those skills. I can only do so much, Mike. I can't hit the ball and drag Johnny everywhere. But what I can do is to get them to stand tall and to be accountable and to do some dedicated practice outside of the office. So maybe they study words in the thesaurus or watch another movie in English and pull a phrase out of it or ask me a vocabulary word because they found it interesting. I respect that. That's what leaders are made of, the ones that are inquisitive and just try to grow their skills. The Importance of Play and Personal Growth That's where you made all your friends and the best relationships are built through play. And why don't we take that away because we are adults? Just because I'm bald and have a white beard doesn't mean I can't enjoy my half an hour with my friends at lunchtime. Let's have a good time. And I've seen people put their phone down and join groups, not go outside for a cigarette, but stay inside to participate. And I think those are the little wins that I can see, one less cigarette and one less screen time and more interpersonal interaction to build on those skills. I can only do so much, Mike. I can't hit the ball and drag Johnny everywhere. But what I can do is to get them to stand tall and to be accountable and to do some dedicated practice outside of the office. So maybe they study words in the thesaurus or watch another movie in English and pull a phrase out of it or ask me a vocabulary word because they found it interesting. I respect that. That's what leaders are made of, the ones that are inquisitive and just try to grow their skills. Turning Challenging Calls into Opportunities Of course, the bark is worse than the bite. Here's my skinny for somebody. If they hang up on you, it's over. It really is over. How about if they're on the phone screaming at you? That's a different side of the spectrum. But if someone is just testing the waters because they're sea level, or they get so many calls, or you happen to make a good first impression, I think you may be able to readjust the tone. And so in my years, just from my own personal experience, I've been able to ride that wave and ride that bull until the end. and I've converted people and they've become some of my best clients. You know that the best relationships are made is when you go through tough times together or you pass the obstacle course for somebody because they're so black and blue from these phone calls. For more than a decade, he has leveraged dispute resolution practices and lean principles to solve problems, manage projects, and enhance collaboration.

Paying it forward to Abington Senior High School is very important to Mr. Blank. As such, he endows a scholarship each year for students that plan on majoring in a world language at the university level. Breaking Free and Embracing New Opportunities Mike, if you can get past your parents' guilt, you can live anywhere in the world as well. So I decided to take the chance and stay. And while I was there, I worked at my friend's center for four years and not at sea level, but I got to see the inside and out of a call center industry. And then in my mid-30s, I threw my hat in the ring and next thing you know, started my own center. Creating Company Culture and Making Decisions I do create my company culture and let them know that I am accountable, will motivate them, but also no surprises. Good, bad or ugly. I have to let them know what's happening in case there's an attrition or something's happening with a list or the script is not working. and would make suggestions and find a way where everyone is comfortable to move forward with certain ideas because I don't always need to win every battle. And Mike, I can fall on many swords. It's not that big of a deal. But ethically, or maybe just from my own experience, I can make an educated decision and share my thoughts with you on why it may be appropriate to change certain words or to approach a client differently. Enhancing Client Communications And most of it is just enhancements. Maybe they don't want to leave voicemails or they don't have an email template written. Or if there's a callback number, someone on their end is not there to answer the call. So that might cause a disruption and not looking to rock the boat. But my man, there is some sort of system that we're working here. We got to make sure that no one's dropping the football because it's not your end, it's our end. Following Family Tradition and Passion So when I'm 18 and I'm choosing my career in college, which was Spanish, my parents were like, why? Why aren't you studying in grandpa in our footsteps, law and finance and economics? I go, well, great grandpa came from Europe at the turn of the century. He didn't speak English and he was a tailor in New York and he started his business. So we're nomads. It's in our blood just because the turn of the century, big deal. I'm doing it the turn of the other century. 2000 is when I left. So I guess we're the same, just 100 years later. But it's the kind of thing, if it's in your blood and your past ancestors took those chances to go to a different country or to build a business or build a family or past family traditions, then why not? That's your flag to hold high. That's your candle that should never go out. and should be spread amongst others. And for me, I'm not starting a tradition. This is my family tradition. It just skipped a generation or two. But oh, no, I can feel it in my blood that this thing was meant to be, and that's why it's been so good for the past 22 years Living Authentically and Making Big Moves You're talking about seriously picking up your spikes and moving to somewhere else, another state or another country. At least do some sort of due diligence. Costa Rica was lucky for me. My friend was here. If there were somewhere else in the world where it was cold or potentially dangerous, maybe I might have not taken that. Or possibly, since I studied Spanish in college and the country did not have Spanish, how much time would it take me to learn that language? I would be starting at scratch. So the stars were aligned. It made it easier for me. My suggestion is to take it in first down to touchdown steps. Maybe just take things of interest first to see if you can keep moving forward. And then when you have everything together, you have your impulse control, maturity, and some cash. Then you take that final step, then go for it. But, you know, those are the sort of things where you only get 100 years and you shouldn't be living someone else's life. You should really be writing your own story. It doesn't need to be so eccentric just to gain attention. You should always have good intentions and good faith. And if you have that sort of stuff, you can make your case to people. Promoting Interpersonal Interaction and Play in the Workplace Recess was the best class in school. That's where you made all your friends and the best relationships are built through play. And why don't we take that away because we are adults? Just because I'm bald and have a white beard doesn't mean I can't enjoy my half an hour with my friends at lunchtime. Let's have a good time. And I've seen people put their phone down and join groups, not go outside for a cigarette, but stay inside to participate. And I think those are the little wins that I can see, one less cigarette and one less screen time and more interpersonal interaction to build on those skills. I can only do so much, Mike. I can't hit the ball and drag Johnny everywhere. But what I can do is to get them to stand tall and to be accountable and to do some dedicated practice outside of the office. So maybe they study words in the thesaurus or watch another movie in English and pull a phrase out of it or ask me a vocabulary word because they found it interesting. I respect that. That's what leaders are made of, the ones that are inquisitive and just try to grow their skills. The Importance of Play and Personal Growth That's where you made all your friends and the best relationships are built through play. And why don't we take that away because we are adults? Just because I'm bald and have a white beard doesn't mean I can't enjoy my half an hour with my friends at lunchtime. Let's have a good time. And I've seen people put their phone down and join groups, not go outside for a cigarette, but stay inside to participate. And I think those are the little wins that I can see, one less cigarette and one less screen time and more interpersonal interaction to build on those skills. I can only do so much, Mike. I can't hit the ball and drag Johnny everywhere. But what I can do is to get them to stand tall and to be accountable and to do some dedicated practice outside of the office. So maybe they study words in the thesaurus or watch another movie in English and pull a phrase out of it or ask me a vocabulary word because they found it interesting. I respect that. That's what leaders are made of, the ones that are inquisitive and just try to grow their skills. Turning Challenging Calls into Opportunities Of course, the bark is worse than the bite. Here's my skinny for somebody. If they hang up on you, it's over. It really is over. How about if they're on the phone screaming at you? That's a different side of the spectrum. But if someone is just testing the waters because they're sea level, or they get so many calls, or you happen to make a good first impression, I think you may be able to readjust the tone. And so in my years, just from my own personal experience, I've been able to ride that wave and ride that bull until the end. and I've converted people and they've become some of my best clients. You know that the best relationships are made is when you go through tough times together or you pass the obstacle course for somebody because they're so black and blue from these phone calls. For more than a decade, he has leveraged dispute resolution practices and lean principles to solve problems, manage projects, and enhance collaboration.
