    Close Up Radio Spotlights Brenya Twumasi of Tactical Ops

    in Business

    San Antonio, TX - Self-actualized law enforcement officers who are in the habit of practicing “self  TLC daily” are better able to serve the public with compassion and purpose. Law enforcement officers are public servants and do well to be cognizant of their high standing. 
    Dr. Brenya Twumasi briefs her Criminal Justice Paraprofessional Law enforcement students to take time out daily for a mini vacation of self (for approximately an hour each day). “If one wants to serve others with care, fortitude, compassion, and empathy, one  should be mindful to care for oneself daily.”  
    Brenya lives to serve. Born in Ghana, where she attended boarding school (under the British model of education) she comes from a family of both national and international leaders. These family members taught their children resolve, hard work, service, and care for others.  
     
    Tactical Ops, Brenya’s consulting firm, is a security systems & Peace Gardens consulting firm. It has been awarded for the second time this year, 2024. Tactical Ops focuses on creating restorative justice principles, peace gardens, Artificial Intelligence, and security for both personal and business. Her 17 page article, Internet Radicalization of Extremists, was published March 2024 by The Journal of Forensic Sciences and Criminal Investigation.
    Brenya looks at the future of Tactical Ops, “The goal is to support learning how to effectively serve members of our Global community.”

This podcast is based on an article titled: Missouri makes equal parenting time a rebuttable presumption To learn more about how our Kansas City family law attorneys can help you call 855-805-0595 or email info@stangelawfirm.com.

    Bennett Maxwell of Dirty Dough Franchise Opportunity Meets Franchise Interviews

    in Entrepreneur

    We have a great show.  We are meeting with Bennett Maxwell, the Chairman of Dirty Dough. Dirty Dough uses centralized production with special machines to produce the world’s first 3-layer cookie. This technology also allows a franchise to open up at half the cost of the competition and half the labor while lowering ongoing costs. Other issues of waste, quality control, supply chain, etc., are handled on the corporate level, resulting in the simplest food franchise concept.
    Dirty Dough is growing rapidly and expanding across the country. Dirty Dough is a food franchise that specializes in unique and fun-to-eat cookies. Recipes are trademarked, meaning customers won’t find these flavors anywhere else. Dirty Dough stores are uniquely set up to be profitable in both large and small markets.
    With extremely low labor costs and high profit margins, their locations don’t need to sell as many cookies as our competitors to make the same profits. And selling these uniquely addicting cookies isn’t hard to do.

    Small Business Big Success with Cynthia Kay

    in Business

    There is a lifecycle for each and every small business and to be successful business owners must pay attention to the 4 phases: start-up, operations, growth and stepping out. A small business is not just a scaled down version of a large one. Strategies that work well for large organizations may be counterproductive for small ones. Small business can "court" and win big business if they play to their strengths: responsiveness, fresh ideas, flexibility, and more.
    My guest Cynthia Kay is the dynamo behind Cynthia Kay and Company, a powerhouse in media production crafting top-tier communications for a diverse clientele, from Fortune Global 100 titans to spirited small businesses. Armed with a Master's in Communications from Western Michigan University, she's not just a leader but a trailblazer, having chaired both the Small Business Association of Michigan and the National Small Business Association. Among her accolades are five coveted Telly Awards and the prestigious Siemens Woman-Owned Small Business Supplier of the Year in 2018.
    But that's just the tip of the iceberg. Cynthia's been hailed as one of West Michigan's 50 Most Influential Women on multiple occasions, a testament to her unwavering commitment to excellence. She's penned enlightening reads like "Small Business for Big Thinkers" and "Stop Wishing. Stop Whining. Start Leading." You'll catch her wisdom gracing the pages of Entrepreneur.com and even making waves on NPR. Oh, and did I mention she's testified before the House Committee on Small Business? Cynthia Kay isn't just making waves; she's leading the charge in shaping the future of business communication.
