Free coffee, gym memberships, and birthday days off; are these the hallmarks of inclusive, progressive corporate culture? Jay Doran would argue, by themselves, no. Great business culture is much more than the sum of the perks and incentives offered to staff. Instead, culture is embedded into the motivation, strategy, and profit-making of each organization. What’s more, those businesses that can clearly define their underlying core culture have the keys to greater financial rewards.

Jay Doran has a wealth of experience working with business leaders and CEOs to help them evaluate, define and implement business-wide cultural goals. He is the CEO and founder of Culture Matters, an advisory firm that helps companies grow without losing sight of why they started in the first place. For Jay, a personal quest to more deeply understand the definition of culture has transformed into a vision to help the corporate world. A world where the concept is not easy to define in actionable terms. He says, “People hear the word ‘culture’ and think of Pizza Day or incentives, as opposed to competence, meaning, productivity and fulfillment.” Real, transformative cultural awareness, attests Jay, comes from the top-down. That’s why he works primarily with founders and senior leaders to solve problems as they arise, within the context of productivity, turnover, strategy, and brand alignment.

Once a company has a clearly defined culture, argues Jay Doran, it will see increases in staff retention and profit. He says, “When we talk about culture, the profit made comes from how employees interact with each other and their customers. More profit is a result of more productive interactions”. But, it takes an organization open to diversity in thought, constant growth, and inclusivity for cultural transformations to be successful. Companies need to be willing to allow some open conflict too. As Jay says, “Learning takes stress. But stress needs responsibility to ensure a culture does not break down, so people do not break down.” Embracing and validating differences in thought processes and beliefs can become liberating for company core values.

Jay Doran’s insights come from a lifetime spent studying people. He believes his tendency to be open and creative with just the right amount of stubbornness has given him the ability to drill down into what makes individuals and businesses tick. His obsessive search to better understand the all-encompassing concept of culture and better understand himself has led him on a journey to do something worthwhile. Jay wants to live his life helping people think, act and do in more beneficial ways. Through Culture Matters, Jay clarifies an organization’s purpose, vision, and mission, working with business leaders to address objective and subjective needs.

It can be easy to think that a great, productive corporate culture needs little more thought than offering away days and healthcare. In reality, companies that spend the time and money to embed culture into the fabric of their business and unify their staff to work together within the same values system will see a substantial return on investment. As Jay says, “Cultural development beyond catchphrases or buzzwords takes serious, methodical work. But, the financial and emotional payoff is exponential.”

Bringing value to humanity, attaining exceptional interpersonal standards, researching emerging practices. These are not typically words associated with the average entrepreneur; rather, they are understood to be ideals selfless public figures aspire to. Western nations often operate under the belief that innovation is driven by competition, a so-called ‘race to the bottom’ to provide the most effective service in the most efficient way possible to the largest number of people. But what if innovation could be driven not by a need to turn a fast profit but by the development of society and the growth of communities?

First, of course, a public figure or business leader needs a tested, high-quality service on which their potential client base can rely. From there, the responsibility falls on the pioneer to discover new methods and figure out how to suit them for public use. If an individual can achieve all of that, they have the recipe for an influential and successful venture sitting in the palms of their hands. It’s a journey that Dr. Brian Hutcheson, Director of Caring Medical Florida’s Dynamic Orthoneurologic Correction program, endeavors upon. Driven equally by the unknowns of civilization’s medical future and a changing perception of healthcare, Brian has set out to show the world that better health is possible through the challenge of the status quo.

Presently, Caring Medical enjoys a vastly diverse client base, spread across the globe’s seven continents. Brian Hutcheson is a key proponent of their expansion by passionately inciting those who wish to improve their health and wellbeing to take on appointments at his clinic. Beyond the appeal of his practice, Brian focuses on the growth of his personal social media channels, where he seeks to illustrate real-life solutions to everyday health and wellbeing problems. “I want to share with others that they can live a life of truth, honor, and integrity, and come out a massive success,” Brian proclaims.

While this recent development in Brian Hutcheson’s brand is focused on modernizing the healthcare approach, it is no anomaly in the broader story of the trailblazer. An ardent advocate of digital motion X-ray (DMX) technology for some years, Hutcheson made it an objective early in his career to spread awareness of the diagnostic tool’s capability to locate hidden injuries in patients. The work was as theoretical as it was practical, as Brian made a self-confessed ‘leap of faith’ in purchasing and operating his own mobile DMX unit, which opened him up to the variety of uses and benefits that the technology could provide. Now, he is a Managing Partner in Digital Motion X-Rays of the Carolinas, overseeing the development and refinement of processes and forming partnerships with regenerative medicine therapists. If someone requires any further information about DMX, Brian Hutcheson’s the person who’s going to give it to them.

Fortunately for Brian, acceptance eventually came, with his unwavering persistence rewarded by growing public recognition of DMX’s benefits. However, there are still barriers to the tool’s full implementation into medical practice, as many government regulations and conservative healthcare plans still refuse to acknowledge DMX’s rising number of proponents. Hutcheson and his team don’t shy away from the challenge, though, as they frequently release research countering institutional presumptions. As with all of Hutcheson’s ambitious pursuits, the process is an ongoing one.

Brian Hutcheson and Caring Medical’s commitment to innovation goes beyond championing new technologies. The clinic’s client experience is arguably the most cutting-edge facet to its appeal, with modern methods designed to compliment Hutcheson’s personal online output. Patients receive tailored videos explaining the step-by-step techniques and processes the professionals believe will improve their condition. Moreover, Brian is exceedingly flexible with the length of his appointments in an effort to ensure every patient comes out with a resolution to the issue at hand. The cherry on the cake is the clinic’s compassionate aftercare program, where members of Brian’s team perform check-up calls to raise their standard of care above that of a traditional in-and-out doctor’s appointment.

Growing up with a mother who instinctively spread kindness throughout the community, Hutcheson combined that example with the equally valuable experience gifted by his father. Formative moments in Brian’s childhood were made when his father would take him to Chicago Cubs games along with business associates from all backgrounds and walks of life. This exposure to diverse adults at an early stage in his development equipped Brian with the ability to interact with everybody – a necessary proficiency in a field as indiscriminate as health and wellbeing.

A clinic based on genuine, thorough care and an occupational background founded on the curiosity of new medical technologies – these are the new frontiers on which Dr. Brian Hutcheson continues to operate. Conquest of the plain of online media to spread his ideas can surely not be far behind.

Driving higher profits in the digital world can be challenging for most business owners. In this new landscape, it’s important to drive people to a business website and remain relevant online. However, many don’t have the resources or the time to market themselves in this way. One expert is making things easier and doing the heavy lifting for business owners through his successful marketing services.

Helping business owners navigate the digital world

Directors and Co-Founders of WebMetrix Group Imran Tariq & Aimee Tariq have made it their mission to alleviate the stress of digital marketing on businesses. The digital landscape has become a very competitive arena over the past several years, and business owners would have to spend a lot of time and resources trying to learn everything on their own. Not to mention, the task of keeping up with everchanging online trends can turn into a complicated and stressful task in itself. The goal of their digital marketing and reputation management company is to create a better online presence for other businesses, without the hassle.

Tariq’s approach is intended to attract more customers and generate higher profits in the most efficient way possible. WebMetrix Group aims to help businesses increase their revenue by millions of dollars a year as well as build the authority and lead brands and public figures to be trusted by everyone. The digital marketing agency side offers Multi-lingual SEO services, GMB Optimization as well as local video ads, Google PPC with clickfraud and multilingual strategy, and ADA compliant web design services. Over the course of several years working with major brands, Imran Tariq & Aimee Tariq has created the best techniques to take businesses to the next level online. Allowing them and their team to do what they do best takes a lot of weight off of business leaders’ shoulders. Their expertise has propelled WebMetrix Group to becoming one of the best digital marketing & online reputation management and public relation agencies in the world.

Connecting with people online

Part of creating a trustworthy online presence is connecting with an audience through digital platforms, like social media sites. Imran & Aimee both have become experts in their field, and been verified on social media accounts with less than 1,000 followers like IG & Tiktok when they were first verified, with Imran still being at 48 followers on Tiktok. With verified accounts, new followers will see him as a reliable source of information, regardless of how many people are following his account.

Tariq uses their social media accounts to share publications they are featured in, which in turn increases their credibility. Using their platforms as sources of mentorship, sharing advice and encouraging messages to their followers regularly. But most importantly, new audience members will find their profile and be able to learn more about their expertise and the services they offers. The end goal is always to lead other people and help them create a similarly successful online presence for themselves.

Twenty-one year old Esports entrepreneur Evan Gouveia recently closed his organization Orlando Reapers operations. He founded Orlando Reapers when he was sixteen years old in the summer of 2017. They first attended the H1Z1 event at 2017 TwitchCon placing 8th and 10th. Summer of 2018 is when Evan and his brand would make a name for themselves.

In August of 2018 Orlando Reapers won the AfterDarkesports WWII event in Miami. He went on to scout arguably his best signing ever consisting of Mack, Sib, Exceed, LordPawns and Brolic. In his video about closing the Reapers operations he always said how much he admired all of those players’ drive.

Mack and Sib now play in the “Call of Duty League” together for the Seattle Surge. Evan not long after turning twenty-one joined Litecoin Gaming LLC. He is now the Vice President over at Litecoin Gaming LLC the question remains is he still the head scout? He scouted multiple players while they were in the “amateur” scene and now have made it to the pro league. Has had an underdog’s roster place for Gears of War Mexico City.

There is no doubt that he is a top scout in the industry however is that what he wants to do? Some are saying he originally joined Litecoin Gaming as Esports Manager. Is he there to make sure they sign the right rosters, market themselves correctly or something we haven’t seen.

Why do we think Head Scout?

Over the years Evan has proven he has what it takes to identify talent in multiple scenes. It’s no secret he has grown up playing with professionals or other owners. His networking reach has definitely helped him throughout the years. It is commonly thought for Evan to have been born in Orlando due to the name of his first organization however lives in Boston Massachusetts. It seems right that a company like Litecoin Gaming LLC would get in touch with a person of such knowledge to make safe plays in what is a Booming area.
