The Richly or Poorly Show
with
Dr. Stephen H. Dawson, DSL
Greetings
Welcome to The Richly or Poorly Show! Here you will learn about the show so you can subscribe to it wherever you enjoy listening. The acronym RoP is used to refer to The Richly or Poorly Show. The Show Overview is presented at the end of this web page.
Background
I have worked in business since 1986 and in technology since 1989. Today, I both consult and advise on strategy for significant international organizations by providing leadership consulting, strategic planning, and executive communications, all at the executive level. I specialize in strategic planning of business development. I help companies determine their next steps and then work with them to achieve their goals, objectives, and targets. I bridge the gap between the board, the executive leadership team, and the company's resources, acting as a change agent, to shape, guide, and facilitate their planning and development efforts.
My worldview is understood initially by reviewing my Biography, my Commentary, my Linked in Profile, and my Linked in Profile Activity. These four sources should provide you with a strong fundamental understanding of my worldview. My social networking is presented primarily through my Linked in profile in combination with my Truth Social and Twitter-X profiles. I have been adverse to using Facebook since the Cambridge Analytica data scandal.
Format
I host the show as a weekly recurring series. Listening to the show is free. Each episode is between 10 and 15 minutes, with episodes released on Tuesdays. I give you, during each show, a part of my education and experience combination. The show category is business commentary. Business is a social science focusing on why people buy whatever it is they buy to help understand why people do whatever it is they do.
What is richly? What is poorly? You, as the show listener, define both of these terms in your life. My role is to help you arrive at these answers in your life. Each listener of The Richly or Poorly Show is better able to satisfy not only some of their wants but also some of their needs as a benefit of listening to The Richly or Poorly Show.
The presentation style is relaxed but focused. You will often spend at least the following few days pondering the content and presentation of the material due to the characteristics of the show. Please do not feel bad if you find yourself returning to a previous episode to listen again to a part of a show to better understand the context of what was presented. I intend to help you live your life more richly. Hence, a review of the material in an episode is expected.
Audience
I cast a wide net to the intended audience of Financial Investors, Skilled Workers, Service Workers, and Homemakers. I have worked in many types of jobs and in many types of companies. I am able to connect well with the members of this intended audience.
Sponsors
The Richly or Poorly Show is funded through three types of Sponsors supporting my work to deliver each episode to you. The Richly or Poorly Show listeners are the only sponsors of the show. My Offer to both listeners and sponsors is to accomplish this result.
Publication
I publish The Richly or Poorly Show using my Podcast Subscription Options. I do it this way to benefit my listeners so they can receive all of my published audio material through the simplicity of a single publication source. I am a believer in the simple when possible principle.
Justification
Are you living your life richly? Do you know someone you want to help live their life more richly? The Richly or Poorly Show could well hold some of the help you either need or want, so you can live your life more richly by both listening to the show and sponsoring it monetarily.
Invitation
I invite you to listen to the show for at least one month. I am sure you will learn within four weeks my combined material content and presentation style I deliver to you through The Richly or Poorly Show.
