Looks at Local

LeadersEach month, the Business Leader focus-

es on how Leadership Hendricks County delivers the skills local residents need to provide leadership in our communities.

Nexus of networksMost people think of Chambers of

Commerce as advocacy organizations that concentrate on lobbying for the business community. But in Hendricks County, the primary role of local Chambers has become serving as a hub for networking and communication between local businesses, building an unusually effective level of collaboration and cooperation.

Much of the credit for that goes to the active members of the Chambers, but it’s clear that another factor is Leadership Hendricks County’s success at weaving networks through our county’s communities. It comes as no surprise that three of the county’s Chambers are headed by LHC graduates.

“Many of us take for granted the connections we have and how they help us do our jobs,” explains Plainfield Chamber director Brad DuBois (LHC 2014). “LHC made me more aware of the local, county and state organizations and their different programs and purposes for existing.”

Danville Chamber director Marcia Lynch (LHC 1994) sees the LHC connection as a way to strengthen her Chamber’s resources. “LHC can teach small business owners habits that lead to strong, profitable businesses,” she notes. “Successful businesses create thriving communities. By engaging the individuals that participate in LHC, more resources and passion are inserted into the process of meeting the needs of the community.”

Mike Arnould of the Brownsburg Chamber (LHC 2004) saw his participation as key to understanding the many connections at work in Hendricks County. “LHC gave me the knowledge to experience the working

relationships between local, county, and state government,” he says. “It also provided me the better perception of the link between the school systems, health services, and the business community to provide the appropriate quality of life. It’s been invaluable in providing me education and knowledge in my everyday world.”

All three directors are tasked with growing their own organizations, but they also encourage their members to participate in LHC. Why? “I believe everyone should be aware of how their community works,” Lynch explains. “Private business, government, schools and nonprofits all play a role in making a community strong. LHC gives a good overview of each of these groups and teaches individuals how to best use their strengths and resources to make their community better.”

“LHC will not only connect you with the people in the county but give you a better understanding of where they are coming from and trying to accomplish,” DuBois adds. In fact, Plainfield’s Chamber believes so strongly in LHC’s value that it offers scholarships to members who apply to the program.

FINaNce DIsPatchesn Financial aid tips for choosing collegeAcceptance letters are filling mailboxes around this time of year and many stu-dents and parents will be faced with dif-ficult decisions regarding higher educa-tion expenses and all that entails. Before making any final decisions, be sure to know and fully understand the cost of admittance and other costs that may be incurred (room and board, meal plans, books, etc.). Find out whether or not the institution will continue providing the same financial aid package after the stu-dent’s first year—generally this is not the case. Students and/or parents must reap-ply every year by completing FAFSA and CSS Profile paperwork. And if a student receives unequal offers from two different schools, reach out to see if one school will match the other’s offer.

– The Fiscal Times n Investing in emerging markets?According to Mark Mobius, executive chairman of Templeton Emerging Markets Group, investors should consider rotating from U.S. markets into “better-performing emerging markets.” In an interview with CNBC in late April, Mobius said “[U.S.] earn-ings will not be as good as people expect simply because they have a lot of head-winds… They hate the banks to begin with, so banks are not able to give busi-ness support that they really need. As a result, companies have been conserving cash and buying back shares. That doesn’t

do much for earnings, so expansion isn’t really there except in the tech

space.” – CNBC n Audited:

Now what?A letter from the IRS can be

intimidating indeed, especially after the April tax deadline. An audit may come in a few forms, however, and there’s no reason to panic. The letter may be an Adjustment letter (which would indicate a change in the amount owed or the refund—this can be caused by an erroneous number entry on filing), a Correspondence Audit (which would ask for verification if a W-2 did not match income reported by the employer), or an Examination Audit (which is an in-person audit that can take place in your home, place of business or an official IRS facility). Depending on the nature of the audit, it may be wise to seek representa-tion from an attorney or CPA. Gather all the requested documents and schedule the appointment. Ultimately, the auditor will either confirm your filing and resolve the audit, or you will incur penalties and may be required to pay additional taxes, interest charges and possible legal fees.

As we approach our 10th anniversary of publishing the Business Leader in September, I am reminded of the many

ribbon cuttings I’ve had the opportunity to witness. Celebrating the beginning of a business is exciting and I wish those who do so nothing but the best.

Unfortunately, I’ve seen businesses come and go – and I think af-ter 10 years of having a front-row seat I can identify what brings a business success and what doesn’t.

Business success is dependent on passion. It may be hard to believe, but I have watched some businesses start up with very little passion. If you don’t have that, you better get it quick. Passion resonates with customers. They enjoy doing business with people who are passionate about their busi-ness. They sense it. Plain and simple. Have passion about your business or you can expect to file paper with the state to close your busi-ness faster than you did opening it.

I believe some businesses fail because they were launched for all of the wrong reasons. Many want to open a business to give them-selves flexibility in their personal lives. If you’re not in it to grow it, then you should se-riously reconsider starting your own business.

9th Annual Excelerate is May 7The Business Leader’s 9th annual Exceler-

ate Hendricks County is upon us; for more in-formation see pages 14-16.

Somehow, corporate America believes that more meetings means more business. Like everything else in our

culture, more must be better, right? We can spend a third of our work lives in meetings. There are meetings to touch base, meetings to update projects, and meetings to decide if we need more meetings. We seem to have gotten away from the purpose of meetings – to increase business.

Anything else is superfluous.David Grady explains it this way

on a TED Talk he gave recently: If someone took your desk chair, you’d go get it. Think of your time as the desk chair. Don’t let anyone take your freaking desk chair without a fight.

So I offer tips for making meetings less a part of your life and more productive.

Don’t give in to a meeting right away. If the purpose of the meeting is not clearly de-fined, don’t be so quick to RSVP affirmative-ly. Check with the meeting organizer and ask the purpose of the meeting. Ask for an agen-da. Meetings without an agenda are the great time vampires of our businesses. Don’t let one

of these undefined meetings suck all the time out of your day.

On the flip side, if you are the meeting coordinator, then make sure the meeting has a purpose. Then make sure that all the relevant parts are available to allow partici-pants to decide. Plant the right in-formation. It’s not illegal to do this unless you frame someone, then we’re talking about crimes.

Have the right people at the meet-ing. If you have been invited to a meeting, find out who is and isn’t going to be there. If a final decision has to be pushed to the top, make

sure that your meeting has a clear and concise recommendation. If the right people can’t be there, don’t go.

Prepare and clearly define expectations. Make sure that your meetings are well pre-pared. If you’re just a participant, make sure you are prepared to do your part. Helpfully prepare the assembled with expectations and get feedback from everyone attending. Distrib-ute all relevant documents ahead of time and ask that they be digested before the meeting.

Don’t brainstorm. Brainstorming can be a time suck as well. It’s too polite. Good deci-sions need to have input from all concerned in the meeting. Keep any cookies away, as this tends to excite the participants.

Make clear that the meeting zone is a safe one. Everyone there has immunity from pros-ecution. Let them say what they feel as long as it adds to the decision at hand. Tar and feather those who try to take the meeting away from the purpose. It may seem extreme, but trust me, you will feel better and more people will be wary of taking anything of yours again.

Consider alternatives to a sit-down meet-ing. Try a standing meeting. Perhaps you can take turns standing on the participants. This can speed up meetings. Football players have a meeting before almost every play and all of them are less than 30 seconds. Invite a player to your next meeting. Have a tray of dirt near-by so that you can draw out everyone’s assign-ments.

End of the roadfor common wageGovernor Mike Pence and other

Indiana GOP legislators are hoping to put the nail in the common con-striction wage law’s coffin—a piece of legislation that was adopted in the midst of the Great Depression. By press time, the repeal had passed the Senate and House and is await-ing Gov. Pence’s John Hancock.

While nay-sayers fear this will al-low for less-than-reputable contrac-tors to take projects away from com-petitors, legislators will ultimately require government contractors to undergo a scrupulous qualification process—ensuring higher quality work in a cost effective manner that rewards hard work put in by mem-bers of the construction workforce.

The real winners in this whole ex-change are Indiana taxpayers. With government construction projects reaching more reasonable prices, fewer taxpayer dollars will be re-quired to help fund such projects.

Free-market wage scales will do what the common wage scale has failed to—ensure fairness across the board.

Wages of all sorts are making headlines these days—in Indiana and across the country. Common, minimum, hazard, severance. Take your pick.

Our bet is that minimum wage will be the next hot topic in our communities as we head into the upcoming 2015-16 elections. We’re anxious to see which buttons get pushed (by whom) and whether or not the feds will impose anoth-er hike before the end of President Obama’s final term.

Best advice ever received: “Decide on a goal. Aim for the goal; never give up.” Most people that give up are usually very close to their goal. They either don’t realize it or the speedbumps look like mountains. Best Business Decision: With 40 years in business, that question is just too hard to answer! Worst advice I ever received: “People have tried that. It’s never worked.“ In 5 years I want: To remain relevant doing what I like. Retirement would be boring! My secret to success: Success is the progressive realization of goals important to the individual. As long as I am progressively accomplishing my short term goals, working toward the longer term goal, I feel successful. That motivates me.

How Jerry did it?

By Gus PearcyWarning: In this story, high fructose corn

syrup is the bad guy. Actually, Jerry Rezny has nothing personal against corn syrup just the fact that it replaced regular sugar in most of the brand name sodas. A former Coca-Co-la employee, Rezny was around when they changed the recipe in the 1980s.

“(Coke) was my favorite, until they changed the recipe when they put in the high fructose corn syrup,” Rezny said. “That isn’t the natural product and it isn’t handled by your body the same way.”

The Wisconsin native has a breadth of knowledge on the affects of this change, but the bottom line is the taste. For the soft drink industry, the bottom line was... well, the bot-tom line. High fructose corn syrup is cheaper than cane sugar.

This is a new venture for Rezny who has vacillated between entrepreneurship and con-ventional careers.

After many starts and stops, Rezny found himself in Indiana without a job a three years ago. That’s when he started Handcrafted Bev-erages. Sodas made with sugar. Actually, it’s just the base syrup and needs to be mixed with carbonated water to create a soda. the inven-tion of the Soda Stream has given Rezny an-other avenue to pedal his product.

“The reason we started this company was to give independent restaurateurs something better than what’s available from the big guys,” Rezny says.

He’s taking the craft beer industry model and applying it to soft drinks.

“Just like Budweiser was known as being really good beer,” Rezny explained. “I’m not saying it’s a bad beer, but compared to craft brews, they bring beer to a higher level.”

The syrups are made in Indianapolis using real sugar. Despite a 42 percent premium in the cost of sugar, Rezny’s Handcrafted Bev-erages only cost 7 percent more than the big

guys.Handcrafted Beverages are available in

many restaurants including the Oasis Diner and Three Pints Brewpub in Plainfield; Papa Roux, Shoefly Public House, Richard’s Brick Oven Pizzas, Hotel Tango Distillery in India-napolis; as well as the Indianapolis Central Li-brary and more.

It’s also available for retail on the Internet and at Pogue’s Run groceries in Indianapolis.

Handcrafted Beverages offer about 14 fla-vors, but mainly cola, diet cola, root beer, cherry vanilla cream, ginger beer, and red cream soda.

His experience includes opening a Christ-mas Tree Farm and cleaning business, before launching a brewpub restaurant years ahead of its popularity peak. For the brewpub, he also concocted his own root beer.

Rezny has also been a freelance business

consultant. He joined a small hotel chain as the food and beverage director. He was of-fered a chance to come to Indianapolis with the job.

Handcrafted Beverages has had some suc-cess, but Rezny’s goal is to triple the business. Step growth is what Rezny expects because each step requires an investment. After that, he may work on franchising for the benefits of local ownership. He’s had requests from cus-tomers outside of Indiana, but Rezny isn’t in-terested in interstate commerce and the head-aches.

Rezny, 61, has developed a philosophy on reaching his goals: perseverance.

“I think the public’s perception of food is changing,” Rezny summed up. “They want better quality, they want local if they can. They certainly don’t want it to be bad for them. Soda isn’t healthy, but it shouldn’t be bad for you.”

It was a year ago at this time that I introduced my first gratuitous newspaper column. It happened to be the announcement of the

new Greg Hubler Chevrolet in Mooresville. Well, this is my second annual gratuitous newspaper column. It’s announcing the brand new Christi Hubler Chevrolet in Crawfordsville. At 27, Christi is probably the youngest dealer in the nation, according to Chevrolet. She is starting the store on her own, and she is not inheriting a mature store from her father.

Now, I have to make this a legiti-mate small businessman advice ar-ticle or it will be thrown in the trash bin of gratuitous garbage. So here is the legitimate tie-in: After a year, I reported that Greg’s dealership has been do-ing very well, profitable every month. Why? On principle, it’s because he held on to the basic elements of “keeping the customer hap-py, plus people, processes and products.” A year later, he has remained true to his roots. Daughter Christi is equally insatiable on her desire to adhere to the fundamentals of run-ning a small business.

Recently, I learned a bit of information I find rather humorous. Well-run businesses have a daily operating control document that

tells where you are at any given time in the month on your profit/loss picture. Typically this document would have the critical sales and expense numbers posted on a daily basis

with a “rate of travel” net profit af-fixed to it so that at any time of the month, you know if your company is profitable or not profitable. It is the critical tool or dashboard that aware managers utilize.

I have come to find out that the daily operating control document, or DOC Greg uses to guide his plane, will be the same instrument cluster that my daughter will be us-ing the fly her plane. What is the sig-nificance of this? It is the fact that Greg will be judging his company

with the identical set of matrix that Christi will be using for operating her business. This means that of all the critical statistics that a dealership creates on a daily basis, they will be judging one another on an identical set of matrices. As a dad, I’m thrilled at the thought that this will invite all kinds of bickering, jeal-ousy and competition between two highly competitive kids. Who is going to win the bat-tle? The customer, the manufacture and the employees, that’s who is going to win.

As a proud dad here, all I have to say that

it’s all about the basics, satisfying the custom-er and people, process and product. Game on. May the best man, err person win.

Jim Ittenbach is owner of SMARI, a research company, and he offers insights based in his years conducting research.

A recent newspaper article stated that within Indianapolis-area communities a black man is three times more likely

to be arrested than a white man. An alternative viewpoint could say that a black man is three times more likely to commit a crime than a white man.

While both statements are sup-portable by the same facts, one sug-gests that a problem may exist with the way police profile black men, while the alternative suggests that a problem may exist in the way black men are raised.

According to CNN anchor Don Lemon in a commentary that blew up social media, “More than 72 per-cent of children in the African-American com-munity are born out of wedlock and raised in homes with absent fathers. And studies show that the lack of a male role model is an express train right to prison.” Not that I agree with a belief that the absence of a father equates to guaranteed criminality, but that it does put extreme burdens upon any family.

Here are the facts. A black male is three times more likely to be born out of wedlock (78 percent) than a white male (26 percent). A black male is three times more likely to be

raised by a single parent (67 percent) than a white male (25 percent). Black males repre-sent 6 percent of our population but account

for about 50 percent of our prison population. Here is one more fact: The student dropout rate for black males (48 percent) is two times that of a white male (22 percent).

With the focus upon education, I believe we are closing upon a likely cause. A recent national research study that I conducted revealed that the leading indicator of a satisfying life was education. Education was also the leading indicator of a suc-cessful marriage, continuous em-ployment and a sense of happiness.

So which facts reflect a symptom and which ones a cause? This question is easily articulat-ed but demands a complex answer. We can focus our attention and resources upon police training as it will provide better outcomes for all. But until we embolden family structures that nurture steadfast and willing learners, I doubt that these facts will improve. Live long and prosper.

Education as a top priority creates a life of satisfaction

The phrase “loose lips sink ships” is more than just a handy bit of homespun advice. It was a serious warning for

Americans who lived during the World Wars of the last century. It’s also valuable advice for social media.

“Loose lips” was a reminder that sensitive data that was discussed publicly could be overheard by those working for the enemy. An offhand remark about a supply ship’s desti-nation could put it in the crosshairs of a submarine’s periscope.

Even if you don’t refer to the busi-ness world with military metaphors, intelligence about what a competi-tor may be doing can be amazingly powerful. And information that may not actually reveal a company’s strategy may damage its reputa-tion. Just ask companies that have seen “inter-nal” email messages pop up in the newspaper.

Unfortunately, there are managers and em-ployees who seem to have little appreciation for the potential danger associated with casu-ally guarded secrets and other information. While this lack of common sense about sensi-

tive information has long plagued companies, the explosion of social media has exacerbated the problem. People who have no compunc-

tion about posting the most inti-mate details of their private lives seem to take a similar approach with workplace information.

It isn’t always sensitive or confi-dential information about a com-pany. Sometimes, it’s just a matter of airing dirty laundry in a public forum. I suspect the posters believe that the information is accessible to only their friends or connections, but these sites have confusing and ever-changing approaches to priva-cy. If a mutual friend comments on

that employee’s post, a third party may be able to see it. The same holds true with email. Con-sider how damaging archived emails have been to companies and elected officials in recent highly publi-cized cases.

In the current rush to share ev-erything with everyone, it’s impor-tant to remember that some infor-mation needs to be handled with

discretion. Maybe you really shouldn’t tweet those rude comments about the manager you dislike. Perhaps you shouldn’t share that facet of your company’s planned strategy in a Linke-dIn discussion group. It probably isn’t a good idea to commit some of those ugly thoughts about a political opponent to email. Even in this well-connected age, some things probably are best left to old-fashioned, private, face-to-face conversations.

Loose lips really did sink ships in the past. Today, they can sink your career – or even your company.

A great article in Fast Company caught my attention recently, “How to Balance the Fear of Failure with the Prospect of

Regret” an excerpt from Jon Acuff ’s book Do Over: Rescue Monday, Reinvent Your Work, and Never Get Stuck. How often do you find yourself presented with opportunities that seem like “once in a lifetime” moments? Or at least you tell yourself this in hopes that by doing this one thing your business is going to increase net revenue by 50 percent or profits will surge 200 percent.

You know the feeling – like hit-ting the lottery. Funny how we take time to dream about these scenarios that would land us on the front page of Entre-preneur or Fast Company poising with Rich-ard Branson, and yet, sobering when you re-alize how very little these come to fruition. Instead, betting on the execution of a well thought out plan, day to day hard work and measuring your business activity will actually

increase your odds of hitting the jack-pot of success.

So, why are we lured down this path? Acuff explains we allow the “what if ” game to take over our rational thinking, and before you know it, the fear of missing an opportunity is equally as scary as picking the wrong opportu-nity. Many times this stagnates our growth or even worse, paralyzes our decision making capacity.

Acuff contends that fear of fail-ure is a much different animal than the fear of regret. I had not thought about missed opportunities in this way before, and I really think it is smart. Failure is typically short lived

and in the moment like losing a contract, picking a shoddy vendor or hiring the wrong employee. All of these failures can typically be righted or the pain of the loss is temporary and guides you to a different path where you will be faced with new choices. Regret, on the other hand, he likens to a “slow burn.” One

that is with you when you wake up and when you go to sleep, that you never quite shake off. His analogy from the article sums it up, “If fear is a tidal wave, large and loud and tempo-rarily very powerful, regret is a small stream that cuts a canyon into your heart slowly over time.”

The next time you are faced with a business opportunity, instead of asking “what if I miss out on something” or “what if this is a once in a lifetime chance”, try asking a different ques-tion to yourself. Try this one: If I choose this opportunity and fail, will I regret not trying? Your answer may surprise you. Imagine all the time you will gain skipping the negative “what if ” spiral downward. I am betting on a slow and steady rise to success, not the lottery version. Although, I do have to admit, I would love to meet Richard Branson!

Fear of failure or fear of regret


Carolyn Goerner is a Professor of Management at Indiana University-Bloomington’s Kelley School of Business. Email: [email protected].

While it is true that different people are motivated by different things, when it comes to employees, one thing is

universal. Money motivates behavior. The age old question, though, is how best to pay people to get the level and type of performance that you want.

One form of compensation gain-ing popularity is stock options. The stock option given to specified em-ployees of the company gives them the right, but not the obligation, to buy a certain amount of shares of the company at a predetermined price. The idea behind stock options is to align employees’ perspectives with those of shareholders. In theory, when employees have compensation tied to your company’s performance, they think about the big picture and work to ensure that their be-haviors are in the best interest of the organi-zation. Unfortunately, very little research has examined employees’ perceptions of and sat-isfaction with this type of compensation.

Researchers set out to examine this ques-tion. Generally, they found that companies offering stock options significantly outper-formed their peers that didn’t. Even when companies limited stock option plans to just the executive level, they saw significant pro-ductivity gains. However, they did find a dif-ference in the way that employees viewed this compensation.

Executives who received stock options

tended to see them as something that helped their productivity, enhanced their willingness to stay with the firm, and strengthened their

commitment to the long-term suc-cess of the organization. These ex-ecutives tended to retain their stock in the organization for a longer pe-riod of time. On the other hand, nonmanagerial employees tended to view stock options merely as a short-term bonus. Unlike execu-tives, they tended to exercise stock options – meaning sell their stock – quickly. Consequently, any pro-ductivity gains seen before the stock was granted did not last.

From this research, it appears that firms would be best advised to limit stock-option compensation to those at the highest levels of the organization. Cash bonuses, or other in-centives intended for short term productivity improvements, are better suited for rank and file workers.

Dan Miller is founder and president of Historical Solutions LLC - Ideas and Inspiration Through History. Dan uses history to help people strengthen their leadership. His website is historicalsolutions.com.

This I believe: the past can help you become a better leader. History (a partial construction of the total past)

is a vital resource that can improve every leader, yourself included. Ignore history and the past, and you waste a resource. You lose an opportunity.

My guess is that you want to make the most of every opportunity you can.

So, I’d like to introduce you to his-tory as a resource for your leader-ship. Specifically, let’s take a differ-ent look at the late 1930s. My hope is that you’ll find a key takeaway for one specific aspect of your leader-ship. That aspect is visioning. Looking ahead. Trying to see the future and preparing your followers for what’s coming.

The late 1930s featured two different futures. See which of them best de-scribes the way you see the future as a leader.

The first is the World’s Fair of 1939 in New York City. The theme of the World’s Fair was “Dawn of a New Day.” True to its la-bel, this was the first such fair to focus entirely on the future. More than 44 million visitors toured ex-hibitions that included “The World of Tomorrow” sponsored by General Mo-tors. The exhibit predicted a future where motor traf-fic would move by radio frequencies, a population shift from cities to villages that specialized in farming single crops, the reduction or disappearance of personal pos-sessions, and a mandated two months’ vaca-tion for every adult worker.

That was one way of perceiving the future in 1939. From a leadership perspective, it was

“the future as prophecy.”A second way of the future began in the

mind of one person. He was Gener-al George C. Marshall, newly named Army Chief of Staff by President Franklin D. Roosevelt. With his ap-pointment, Marshall bore the brunt of responsibility for organizing the U.S Army for a potential war. At the time of his promotion to Chief of Staff, nations were waging wars sep-arately in Europe and Asia.

Marshall envisioned a future where American soldiers would ex-perience a very different form of war than had been known before. He was

honest with himself and with others — we are unprepared for such a fight. As a result, Mar-shall began to formulate the revolutionizing of

American military training.He started laying the

groundwork for what would become an unprec-edented scale of war-train-ing. Known as the Louisiana and Carolina Maneuvers, it would involve hundreds of thousands of new sol-diers, operate over thou-sands of square miles, use extended phases of days and weeks, and incorpo-rate dynamic design chang-es. Marshall demanded the new—new methods, new equipment, new strategies, new parameters. Ultimate-ly, Marshall would replace 75 percent of his top tier of commanders after this training was over.

This second way of look-ing ahead could be termed “the future as preparation.”

Be honest with yourself. Think back to the last time that you as a leader stood in front of your followers and, as a group, grappled with the future. Was it “fu-ture as prophecy” or “fu-ture as preparation”?

For me, I don’t take two month vacations or work in a farm village raising a single crop. Also for me, I do understand the out-come of World War II and

its impact on us today. I’ll go out on a limb and say that George Marshall got it right.

Visits to offsite primary care physicians have gone down by 36% due to an increase in health clinic visits. Brand prescriptions have decreased by 39% in favor of generics. And preventative care has spiked an average of 36% — showing that employees are taking control of their own health like never before.

The Hendricks County Government was facing a dramatic 11.4% increase in healthcare costs. They had to find a solution without compromising the quality of care that their more than 400 county employees were receiving.

The Hendricks County Council and Commissioners, along with insurance consultant H.J. Spier Company, Inc., partnered with Hendricks Regional Health to stave off this budget challenge. Together, we implemented a health clinic where government employees receive care with a reduction in time off from work, and participate in a range of wellness and prevention programs. It is truly a collaborative effort between three organizations committed to the community.

Instead of the 11.4% increase they were expecting, the Hendricks County Government saw a negligible 0.75% average annual increase in healthcare costs since 2010 — translating into a savings of over $2 million.

Shopping at Tiffany’sIn February 2015, Suzy Pineda and Tiffany

Pineda, mother and daughter opened a shopping destination that Hendricks County needed. Su-zy’s Consign and Resale was previously located one mile west of this current location, for three years. Tiffany, who has always dreamed of own-ing her own boutique, saw an opportunity to turn her dream into a reality alongside her mother. When this new location became available, the two decided to combine both of their business’s under one roof. You can shop, buy or consign your gently used clothing items at Suzy’s, or shop at Tiffany’s Boutique, that carries high quality, af-fordable trendy clothing items and accessories.

What has been your biggest lesson so far?I have learned not to get too excited or too de-

feated as I build my business. Each day is like a roller coaster filled with ups, downs, thrills, and unexpected turns. I learned that a successful venture requires 100 percent attention, focus, and effort.

What would be one thing that could help your business?

For everyone who reads this to spread the word of what our mother/daughter business has to offer. We are a one-of-a kind shop. We cater to women of all ages, sizes and budgets.

What would you tell someone starting his/her own business?

Be passionate about the daily work, the grind. You need a hook in it that will give you the stay-ing power for the 80-hour weeks. Do the best you possibly can in every area of your business, but when you make a mistake, just learn from it. There is no failure, just feedback. Do your home-work-knowledge is power! Keep up to date with what is going on in your industry and your busi-ness. Network, network, network! You get out what you put in!

So, what do you think about your business’s future?

I think we have had an amazing amount of positive and encouraging feedback from our community. Women absolutely love the moth-er-daughter combo along with the selection they have coming into our store. It’s truly such a fun atmosphere. 2015 looks oh so bright. We can’t wait to see what the future has to offer!

Kevin Speer is president and CEO of Hendricks Regional Health.

Kevin speerColumnist

As one of the largest employers in our county, Hendricks Regional Health has more than 1,600 employees (we call

them associates) working hard every day to take great care of the people in our community. One of my initiatives as president & CEO is to ensure that our hard working associates know how much they are appreciated.

Healthcare can be a rough in-dustry. There are decisions made at the state and national levels–completely out of our control– that directly affect many aspects of our business. Emotionally, our associates can be taken on a roll-er coaster ride every day as we see all ends of the spectrum, from wel-coming a new baby into the world to helping a family say good-bye to an elderly loved one. Through thick and thin, our associ-ates continue to deliver compassionate, high quality care at a lower cost than at many oth-er hospitals. Their efforts on behalf of our pa-tients inspire me on a daily basis.

Our hospital is extraordinary because of our associates. It’s important to maintain good morale, and one way we do that is by celebrating our successes. We like to recog-nize all of the great things our associates do for our patients, visitors and each other. We host associate appreciation events throughout the year, including a dinner to honor associ-ates celebrating significant work anniversa-ries; we’ve held ice cream socials and picnics;

family outings to events in downtown India-napolis; and we invite our associates to a for-mal holiday party each December where we feast and dance the night away. We present

a quarterly Daisy Award to honor exceptional nurses; all associates are eligible for our quarterly Ser-vice Excellence Awards and annual Extraordinary Effort Award. If an associate has gone above-and-be-yond the call of duty, they might find a gift certificate or movie tick-ets in their mailbox. These ges-tures are an investment in the peo-ple we care about. It’s our way of saying “Thank You!” for a job well done, because we couldn’t do what we do without our amazing asso-ciates.

When our organization creates its annual budget, we prioritize our expenses and our associates are always a top priority. It’s impor-tant for us to retain, and recruit, top-quality people. We ensure that associate appreciation efforts are included in our budget so we can continue to demonstrate how much we value their efforts.

It takes a lot of wonderful people, work-ing together as a team, to keep our momen-tum moving forward. Making a habit of say-ing “Thank You!” whenever, and however, the opportunity arises can go a long way toward building a happy, devoted workforce.

Importance of showingappreciation

heaLthY BUsINessWith the recent passing of the RFRA bill and hubbub it caused, then not rescinding the bill but

amending it to “clarify” RFRA, more and more business people are afraid to state their beliefs for fear of some type of retribution by some segment of the population – including customers or vendors.

Here are my beliefs laid out here for you to see…

I believe in Almighty God, His Son Jesus Christ and the Holy Spir-it. I believe in the United States of America and for what it stands: freedom to pursue life, liberty and happiness.

I believe in the family unit starting with a father and a mother (or husband and wife if you will, but each taking the roles of the father and the mother).

I believe in you, my fellow American, my fellow Hoosier and my fellow business person.

I believe in free enterprise and the free-dom to choose. I believe you have the right to choose (whatever you choose). I don’t have to agree with it nor do I have to accept it as my choice, but I do have to acknowledge it and re-

spect it as your choice. And, I’m not going to hold it against you or

base my business decisions on it.The United States of America isn’t

a perfect place. We, as Americans, have made mistakes. You and I have made mistakes, too, and that’s what makes us who we are today. You and I have failed forward, learned, improved and corrected our errors just like others in the United States have done. Who we were has made us a better people today because of those mistakes and our learning from those mistakes. I believe that to think we are our mistakes of years

or centuries ago is naïve and, quite frankly, ig-norant.

So if my beliefs make me an Archie Bun-ker type… so be it. Take a stand and be who you are. It may not be perfect, but neither am I, nor is anyone else. That’s what makes us unique and provides us our strengths. And our strengths are what make our businesses strong, too.

BUsINess OF the MONth

I’ve been thinking about some things lately. Actually, I think about a lot of things all the time. But something specific keeps running

through my mind… and it won’t leave. Since March of 2009, the undisputed “bottom” of the bear market that was the financial crisis, the S&P 500 index has risen dramatically. At press time (mid-April) since that bottom, the S&P 500’s total return with dividends reinvested is more than 210 percent (http://dqydj.net/sp-500-return-calculator/) .

210 percent.That’s an annualized rate of re-

turn for the period of over 20 per-cent. That is almost two times the annualized rate of return for the thirty year period from March 1985 thru April 2015 (http://dqydj.net/sp-500-return-cal-culator/).

So why does that both-er me? What’s the “some-thing specific that keeps running through my mind?”

How much is enough?Markets, just like the tallest trees in the

world, ultimately don’t grow to the sky. And yet the level of complacency, smugness, and apparent total lack of anxiety with this mar-ket continues unabated. Recently some less than stellar earnings reports have started to

stumble out of some board rooms and across the news wire. Now, data from the global economic powerhouse that is China has started to indi-cate that this once unstoppable be-hemoth is starting to slow. Chinese exports fell sharply in March, down 15 percent from a year earlier. And imports to China were down over 12 percent. This data seems to indi-cate that China, the world’s second

largest economy, is be-ing hit with decreasing demand both at home and overseas. It’s a glob-al leader in production, consumption and eco-nomic development… and it’s slowing down.

Europe remains inter-esting, especially with the quantitative easing programs (QE) the Eu-

ropean Central Bank (ECB) has implemented.

How much is enough?

“Could now be the time to push yourself

back from the banquet table…?”

But it is early and way too premature to say that the ECB will have as successful a result as our own Fed did with our quantitative easing programs these last six years.

Yes, the Fed and its QE programs have been successful. At least to the extent of providing a dramatically rising U.S. stock market. And you see, there’s the rub. The U.S. market has been very “successful.” But more people are not working and producing and finding eco-nomic success in this country than ever be-fore in our history, yet our stock market belies that. We’re driving with our eyes closed and with apologies to Don Henley, we’re gonna hit

something, but that’s the way it goes.

Growth is wonderful. Turning paper gains into realized gains is, too. If you have been in the market and have enjoyed opening your investment statement every month for these last six years, could now be a time to ask your-self some questions? Could now be the time to push yourself back from the banquet table, lay down your knife and fork, pat your belly and graciously decline that triple-decker slice of double-chocolate cake? Then go hit the treadmill?

How much is enough?

Compiled byCathy Myers

Insuring a bright future

Joe Sandifer is a father of four and a mem-ber of St. Susanna Catholic Church. His de-gree is from Indiana State University and he has over 20 years of experience in the insur-ance marketplace. Growing up in Greenfield, Sandifer moved to Hendricks about 15 years ago. Recently, he decided to open his own franchise of HBG insurance.

What has been your biggest lesson so far?It’s a round world. By that I mean, in busi-

ness, if you do right by your customer and work diligently on their behalf, good things will come back to you. I received some very good advice early in my career: deliver noth-ing less than what you would expect as a cus-tomer.

What would be one thing that could help your business?

The one thing that would help my business the most is opportunity. Opportunities to demonstrate our capabilities. In our industry, we are a relatively small office, but we boast years of experience in a wide variety of insur-ance. We are able to deliver big broker solu-tions while maintaining that personal touch.

What would you tell someone starting his/her own business?

For someone starting their own business, my advice is to remember that it’s a marathon, not a sprint. That doesn’t mean that there isn’t a lot of work to be done because there is. But often times I see business people try to make a quick buck while not realizing their reputa-tions could be at stake. They would be better served developing a plan, executing that plan, and establishing themselves as a reliable ven-dor.

So, what do you think about your business’s future?

I think our future is very bright! We are poised for growth and staffed very well; we represent some of the best insurance markets available today, and have the expertise and ex-perience to deliver. We are very excited about the future.

Last year, the number of daily Google searches coming through mobile devices surpassed searches from

computers. On April 21, Google took action to better serve the majority of users who now use little screens. If your business gets revenue from search engine traffic, this new Google update is likely to make an impact ... for the worst if your site is mobile responsive and for the best for those who take action.

If you have ever searched the web through a smartphone you probably found that some websites look iden-tical on tiny screens as the do on desktop moni-tors. To read them you have to zoom in, drag the page side to side, and use surgical precision to tap the correct buttons on the navigation menu. Despite the awkward ef-fort required to use the site on your tiny display, at least you were able to find a business that offers whatever you were searching for, place a call, and maybe even become a new customer. The business you discovered still gained a new visitor de-spite the website’s lack of mobile friendliness.

Things are about to change. Google announced that the search engine

giant is testing sites for mobile responsiveness and, during the few weeks following, sites that

don’t pass the mobile test will be dropped from the search results for smartphone users. For smartphone users, this is good news. For busi-nesses that ignore Google’s warn-ings, the results could be dire for online marketing efforts.

While this update is initially be-ing aimed at search results through smartphones, handing your site’s mobile traffic over to your compe-tition may impact your search po-sitions on desktop searches as well,

since Google’s ranking algorithm cares so much about user engagement. When sites lose traf-fic, they tend to lose au-thority. It’s the sites with higher authority that get the higher positions and the resulting traffic that turns into customers.

To test whether or not your page passes Google’s mobile friendliness test, try the free tools available on http://BusinessLeader.bz/mobiletest and share.

n Audi develops synthetic fuelA research facility in Dresden has produced the first “e-diesel” fuel using only carbon dioxide and water vapor. According to German clean tech company (and Audi partner), Sunfire, the process works by superheating steam in order to break it down into hydrogen and oxygen before the hydrogen is mixed with the carbon dioxide under high-pressure and high-temperature conditions (this creates the so-called “blue crude”). Finally, the mixture is refined similarly to current oil and fuel refining methods. Audi claims the “e-diesel” fuel can be mixed with regular diesel or used alone. German Education and Research minister, Johanna Wanka, said, “If we can make widespread use of carbon dioxide as a raw material, we will make a crucial contribution to climate protection and the efficient use of resources, and put the fundamentals of the green economy in place.” – CNN Money n Google to launch ‘Project Fi’In late April, Google announced Project Fi, a new wireless service provider that would compete with AT&T, T-Mobile and Verizon, among others, except it’s doing a few things differently. Google is partnering with Sprint and T-Mobile in order to allow users access to more than a million free Wi-Fi hotspots. Another unique feature is that users will pay only for data they use—starting at $20. Google is currently only allowing a select number of people early access—but you can request an invitation by going to fi.google.com. – CNN Money
