If you’ve ever worked in corporate America, you may have had this experience: you’re having a perfectly normal day when you get an email from HR with the subject line, “Team Building.” Now, you might be the most fabulous team player in the company, but do you really want to spend a weekend doing a ropes course with your colleagues? No. You don’t. But wait up. Read the email. This team building exercise is a whole other thing. It’s a workshop led by life coach Jaclyn McCabe and you get to choose whether you go to the workshop called “Dream It. Create It,” “Tame Your Inner Critic” or others that are a long way away from a ropes course. Jaclyn’s workshops are based in creativity and self-expression, and they’re not just about making your work-life better, they’re about making your whole life better. The nexus between business and creativity is also the wheelhouse of Kerrie Ann Nauseda. Kerrie Ann is Founder and CEO and Chief Editorial Officer at a company with the enigmatic name, Good Coterie. Good Coterie isn’t a publisher. And Kerrie Ann isn’t an author. She’s kind of a life coach for authors. Good Coterie works with publishers of books about business – mostly Forbes publishing – to shepherd an author and a book through the many stages of its creation, from an idea on a napkin to a book on a shelf. There are any number of encouraging words written and spoken about success being a team sport. “There’s no “i” in team.” “A rising tide lifts all boats.” And many more. And most successful people are quick to acknowledge the role of others who have helped them along the way. Having said that, achieving success in business takes, struggle, hard work, perseverance and determination. And when it all comes together and pays off – they’re typically the successful people we get to meet on shows like this. It's less often that we get to meet the people who these folks mention, the team members who helped make success happen for them. People like Jaclyn and Kerrie Ann.Out to Lunch was recorded live over lunch at Columns in Uptown New Orleans.
