For many years, and in many previous episodes, I have discussed how spending just 15 minutes a day working ON my BNI membership changed the results I was seeing.  Simply by scheduling dedicated time helped me become more effective.  The problem is it isn't really that simple to do.  So I offered to our Director Consultant team the opportunity for a couple of people to go through a coaching program with me if they were interested in installing this 15 minute a day program into their memebership and business.  Two people immediately jumped in, and one of our Managing Directors asked if I would be willing to take a third person who was not on our team.Thankfully I said yes, and in this episode we introduce you to Jamie Stein, a member in New Hampshire and one of our Director Consultants
