Mischo has been featured in Essence Magazine, named the 2021 Cosmopolitan Beauty Award winner, and most recently was featured on Oprah's Favorite Things list for 2021 (WOAH!).

    Honing your craft with Kyle Korver, NBA All Star Oct 28, 2021
    Show notes

    In this episode, Jeff sits down with Kyle Korver, NBA All-star and one of the greatest three-point shooters of all time. You might be wondering why we are sharing an interview with a professional basketball player. There's a good reason. When someone is a true pro's pro, there's something to the work they do. It might seem like they are on autopilot, but in reality, there are years worth of practice behind it. Kyle shares about what he does when preparing to be at his best.

    As an entrepreneur or nonprofit leader, there are certain times of the year we need to be on, in the flow, whatever you might call it. We hope that this interview will inspire you to think about what you need to be at your best.

    Pursuing Excellence with Mr. Horst Schulze Oct 21, 2021
    Show notes

    Today, we are sitting down with Mr. Horst Schulze, a founding partner of the Ritz Carlton Hotel Company and the Capella Hotel Group. It's not often that we have a chance to learn from another generation, but there's something so valuable about learning from someone with more and different life experiences. Mr. Schulze is an author (of "Excellence Wins"), speaker, and consultant across industries.

    We dive deep into the meaning of excellence and how that translates into our daily work. We also discuss organizational values and how to pass those down to the team as a whole. This interview brought on some great debate for our team! We talked about the allure and appreciation of excellence vs the cost of pursuing it. One question we are asking here at Plywood: How can we as a nonprofit create moments of excellence through our coworking space, our programming, our events, and more?
