8 hours ago@davepedigo That is a good cheesesteak. Before leaving east coast we had a JM like 2 mins from where we lived so we did get it a lot. This was our first JM in Vegas since moving here.

4 days ago@AVPhenom @chris_neto @amelia262 @jacobyaudio Great video. Another thing I like is ‘today they will laugh at you, tomorrow they will ask for your advice.’ A leader needs to break out the comfort zone and show the rest they can do it as well. #AVintheAM

4 days ago@_AVAP @chris_neto True but also we need to be careful. A bad fit is bad but a different view (doesn’t fit but no bad) allows us to grow and get out of an echo chamber. #AVintheAM

4 days ago🚩 if a boss try’s to hold their employees back. It’s a fear of the boss and their limits not the limits of the employee. #AVintheAM twitter.com/code_kate/stat…

4 days ago@VictoriaTheTech @code_kate @Vegas_AV_Ace Most people don’t leave a bad job. They leave a bad boss. A good leader wants their team to achieve their best. If they have reached their limit with your team a good leader will not hold them back but give them tailwind move forward. #AVintheAM

4 days ago@Vegas_AV_Ace @jacobyaudio @chris_neto In my experience it may seem like natural but there early environment elements to help build their personality that make people gravitate to them which helps make them a leader. Yes growing as a leader is never done. #AVintheAM

4 days ago@chris_neto People skills are harder to teach than tech skills. Great tech skills or great soft skills will take you done a dead-end path that only goes so far. Both will open multiple never ending paths but the person needs to choose their path not the company #AVintheAM

4 days ago@amelia262 @jacobyaudio @chris_neto A title does not make a person a leader. It’s the people who follow a person that make them a leader and this is do to their actions #AVintheAM

4 days ago@chris_neto Mentorship I feel aids better in finding new talent as it allows both parties to expand their circle and hopefully get outside of their echo chambers. #AVintheAM 2/x

James King @AV_JamesKing
4 days ago@chris_neto I see mentorship more on the person looking to learn and grow from another people. I see apprenticeship where you are ‘assigned’ to someone to learn skills from. Both are important but both are different actions and different mindset. #AVintheAM 1/x

4 days ago@chris_neto What are we doing wrong? Everything we are doing is wrong. Many say they want diverse but then keep to the same echo chambers when looking for people. As the saying goes you can’t solve a problem with the same level thinking that got you into the problem. #AVintheAM

4 days ago@chris_neto We need to get back to the days of getting to know a person. We use too much technology to weed out and it’s configured wrong. I know I gotten weeded out of jobs by a system due to missing a ‘required’ field but I’m sure I would had been a great fit for the job. #AVintheAM

4 days ago@chris_neto Technology, even AI, it a tool and it needs to be looked at like a tool. If you use the tool wrong it can really hurt everything around you. If you use it right it can bring large benefits to everything around it. #AVintheAM

4 days ago@chris_neto Culture is big. In fact I just told my boss the other day that if it wasn’t for the culture I most likely would had packed up and moved back to NJ with everything else that has happens in the last 12 months to me #AVintheAM
