STOP and Listen!! This PodCast on Cyber Security is Mandatory for All Executives and Owners
The advent of the internet is probably the only historical event that challenges its’ horrible technochild – CyberCrime. Cybercrime worldwide is estimated to hit $10.5 trillion in 2025. More scary, Cybercrime is estimated to be increased between 22 and 25% per year based on the BRIs Internet Crime Complaint Center. Just like having car insurance or life insurance, the cost of a cyber attack is so great companies cannot afford to not have this insurance in some way. However, to obtain this insurance at a reasonable price, your company needs to have an audit completed and a certified document completed.Terry Bradley has been working in Cyber Security his whole career and has owned Mile High Cyber for the last 5 years.

"River of Nickels" Emphasized in Cost Savings
The initial concept of River of Nickels was coined by our good buddy Jim Yount. While you may step over a nickel because you felt it wasn’t worth your time, what if picking up a nickel led to many nickels which then led to dimes, quarters and ultimately dollars? Then, you would be much more interested in that first nickel.Today, I have the honor of chatting with someone who has spent their career picking up those nickels and turning them into dollars. As he would describe it, these are the costs within a business that seem very nebulous but end up being major cost savings if looked at more critically.My guest, Matt Nagy is a Business Optimization Specialist at Schooley Mitchell where he looks at everyday company costs such as software fees, disposal costs, telecom to save companies millions of dollars. Over the course of the last 25 years, Schooley Mitchell has saved 30 thousand clients over $1 billion.

Correct Coverage; How to Make Sure You're Getting the Right Coverage at the Right Price
We all have a recent story of the rising cost of insurance and how we have seen the changes that affect each of our daily lives. I was recently in a conversation with a friend that was explaining a flood in one of their factories and although they had a substantial amount of building insurance but for some reason it didn’t include flood insurance. Furthermore, this business used a ton of water to run their business, but flood insurance was never brought up by the agent.We are fortunate today to have a gentleman that focuses on risk events and consults with companies on how to make sure they are “correctly covered”. Scott Carlson has been in the risk mitigation business for over 20 years as a Commercial Risk and Insurance Advisor, most recently with CRS Insurance Brokerage.

Bringing Genuine and Intentional Focus; Making Sure Everyone is Heard
In a recent conversation, I found myself mesmerized by a question that came up – how often are you fully intentional and genuinely engaged in interactions. And to make the question even more profound, how much time do you spend preparing yourself so that in the moment you are able to be fully intentional and engaged.The person on the other end of that question that day at Gaetano’s Italian Restaurant was Marc Wallace, a Vistage Master Chair and a true embodiment of that very topic.
