TNT 2.0: Episode 60 with Frank Mengert - HOW CAN I HELP?

Today we welcome Frank Mengert.


Founder & Creative Visionary @ ebm.


Frank has been proving people wrong since he was a kid.


A successful entrepreneur, nationally recognized speaker, podcast
host, and thought leader, he’s ignored the naysayers and his
humble beginnings to build the life he’s always wanted and
inspire others to do the same through his infectious mantra, “If
I can, you can.”


After a devastating layoff in 2003 and with his “life plan”
spiraling, Frank decided to bet on himself and turned his then
side-hustle into his main hustle, founding his first company.
Five companies later, Frank is the founder and creative visionary
of ebm, a leading provider of employee benefits technology
solutions.


An eternal optimist who always finds a way to see through the
darkness and make the possibilities realities, Frank is driven by
a desire to be better and to do more. Every day, he focuses on
three principles: learn something new, create something that
didn’t exist, and share something with someone.


Frank shares with us that he is motivated by the desire to help
others. To have ripple impact. WE LOVE THAT!


And so, in our conversation we explore:


- Learn-create-share are principles Frank learned from Keenan who
taught to his kids and they just resonated with Frank that he
needed to be doing them daily


- Went to an event for Cystic Fibrosis to support a friend and
watched a 4 minute video of a brother/sister duo and just got
floored and this sparked action - like the universe sent a sign
he couldn't ignore


- Personal evolution IS POSSIBLE for everyone. Up to a point we
may be 'me oriented'. That can't be your whole life. 


- Empathy and gratitude are heavy hitters.


- The leader sets the tone, is under all eyes, and must make sure
to behave in alignment to the mission, philosophy, core values.


- Followership – a leader must be willing to do any task; not too
good for anything.


- Golden nugget – success. It’s not $. It’s everything you have
left without the $$.
