    A Second Chance at Growing Clearlink | James Clarke of Clarke Capital Partners, CEO of Clearlink

    James Clarke, CEO of Clearlink, joins Clint Betts and Garrett Clark for this episode of the Silicon Slopes podcast.

Clint compares his experiences dealing with the Salt Lake Tribune and inviting Elder David A. Bender as a speaker at the Silicon Slopes Summit. On the topic of requiring a return to work in office, as a company, Clearlink has experienced substantial benefits of in-office work as working together in person has improved the mental health of employees, has allowed for great mentoring and leadership opportunities, and has allowed Clearlink employees to bring their best each day - resulting in tremendous growth company wide. James reflects on joining Clearlink again - seeing it as a second chance to grow the company he founded. Over the last few years they have been able to effectively double the profitability of the business and are looking toward the next phase of growth. Listen in as they talk Clarke Capital Partners, nonprofit efforts, and companies James is investing in, among other topics.

    Coaching Success in Leadership | Nikki Eberhardt, Professor of Business at Minerva University

    Coaching Success in Leadership | Nikki Eberhardt, Professor of Business at Minerva University

    Nikki Eberhardt, the Professor of Business at Minerva University in San Francisco, sits down with Clint Betts and Garrett Clark for this episode of the Silicon Slopes podcast. Minerva University was founded on the idea that higher education needs disruption and adaptation with how learning has changed over the years. With an emphasis on entrepreneurship, Nikki enourages her students to puruse what keeps them up at night and gives advice to those looking to start their own business. Her upcoming book, Purposeful Leadership, is about taking care of oneself and finding life/work balance, rather than work/life balance, to optimize leadership. They talk about great leaders from history and finding role models to look up to. Tune in to learn more! "Higher ed needs disruption and we're there to disrupt higher ed. We're out of San Francisco. We were started by a serial entrepreneur who said, 'It's a bit of a broken model and if we take the latest in learning science for the last 50 years, we'll find that there's actually a better way to do this.' So, we created a university out of nothing."
