Unlocking the Doors to Success with Michael Roderick | E47

The Eric Mueller Show

What if I told you the keys to all of the doors that you need opened are in other people’s pockets? How can we meet the right people to help us unlock success?

Enter Michael Roderick, the CEO of Small Pond Enterprises. Michael is here today to help you develop the kinds of relationships that will motivate people to hand you those keys. When he went from high school teacher to Broadway producer in under two years, people started to ask him how he managed it. No matter who is across the table, no matter what you might want or need from them, it is important to remember that we are all people first. Michael’s relationship strategy hinges on treating people like people and from helping those around you to achieve their versions of success.

He is also the host of the podcast Access to Anyone which shows how you can get to know anyone you want in business and in life using time-tested relationship-building principles. He teaches skills such as crafting effective introductions, structuring win-win partnerships, evaluating and tracking existing relationships, and activating the law of weak ties.

Michael Roderick encourages his clients and followers to take the attitude of being “the CEO of you.” Are you ready to unlock your version of success?
