Answers That Count with Charles Musgrove is about leadership and the experiences that shape us into who we become as leaders.
Charles sits down with business owners, entrepreneurs and other leaders for real conversations about their leadership journeys. These aren't simply stories about success. They're conversations about the difficult decisions, challenges, values, and lessons that helped shape the person behind the position.
Charles Musgrove brings more than four decades of business and leadership experience to these conversations. As a CPA, Fractional CFO, entrepreneur, business advisor, coach, speaker, and teacher, Charles has spent his career working alongside business owners and leadership teams. His experience includes building businesses of his own and helping companies navigate financial challenges, operational decisions, growth, accountability, and change. That experience has taught him something important:
Leadership isn't theory. Leadership shows up in your decisions, your actions, your values, and the results you produce.

Back for another episode, Professor Joe Calhoun joins us to provide perspective on the every growing US National Debt. We take a historic look at the annual debt and surplus since the early 1900's. As a % of debt to GDP, only in wary years has the % exceeded 10% ... until 2020 with the COVID-19 virus and economic shut-down. What a year 2020 has been. And, in 55 years, the US has incurred deficit spending in 51 of those years, thus only 4 years of surplus. Normally, this spells disaster. Will it lead to a financial crisis for the US?
Take a look and listen for the Professor's perspective and get his take on what he would do if he were in charge.

#kickthecan, #economics, #governmentintervention, #answersthatcount
Professor Joe Calhoun, Economics Professor at FSU joins us for another episode. We talk about the intersection of government into economics and how this is nothing new. Politicians often take the short-cut when intervening into the free-trade markets. Like, making loans easy to get for businesses suffering from COVID. The money issued by the Federal government in 2020 has been historic and created another bill to be paid by future generations. So, for 2020, we are stimulating the current economy with a $2 Trillion 'Can' to be paid back in the future. Check out this episode for some great nuggets of knowledge.

#stress #communication #leadership https://answersthatcount.com
Melissa Hughes joins us for this episode of Answers That Count and shares nuggets of knowledge about how the brain works and process uncertainty. The 'thinking' brain area actually shuts down during stress and uncertainty. The key to this fact is to know how to counter the 'shut down' and reduce the time that the thinking brain is not fully functional.
This is a great session to help us during the uncertainty created by COVID.
Check out Melissa Hughes' website here https://www.melissahughes.rocks/.

#minimumwage, #amendment2, #florida https://answersthatcount.com
The Florida voters passed Amendment 2 on November 3, 2020 paving the way for a mandated increase in the minimum wage starting in 2021 and increasing to $15/hour over the next 5 years. Florida is not the first to pass such a measure and likely will not be the last. There is even talk about a Federal mandate to increase the minimum wage like Florida. In this episode we talk with Professor of Economics at FSU, Joe Calhoun. From an economics perspective we talk about the effects of the change that the workforce in Florida will likely experience. This subject is also discussed in "Common Sense Economics, Third Edition" a book that Professor Joe is a co-author. To quote from the book, "the basic postulate of economics indicates that a higher minimum wage will reduce the employment of low-skill workers. ... the weight of the empirical evidence indicates that each 10 percent increase in the minimum wage will reduce employment by between 1 and 2 percent.
Of course certain industries will be hit harder than others and there are many ripple effects of raising the minimum wage, like wage compression, increase in payroll related costs, like insurance, payroll taxes, etc.
