Hosted by Hanna Hasl-Kelchner, MBA, JD

I’ve been a trusted advisor for more than 35 years, helping influential decision makers ranging from start-ups to the S&P 500 to the White House and I’ve seen first-hand how what you don’t know in business really can hurt you.

Even if you have one of those fancy Ivy League MBAs, it’s impossible to have all the answers – there are simply too many nooks and crannies in business to be good at everything.

I know first-hand because I HAVE one of those fancy MBAs, I’ve even taught at some of those fancy MBA schools and have been a practicing attorney.

BUT it is possible to discover where those nooks and crannies are, to learn what questions should be asked and to have some fun in the process.

That’s where Business Confidential Now comes in. It gives you access to business information you need to succeed.

Unlike most lawyers, I have both entrepreneurial and corporate experience. Growing up I had a front row seat to my parents American Dream, watching them build a successful business from scratch and later ran my own business before age 30.

I’ve sat on both sides of the desk and that’s why today I love to bridge the gap between business and law through public speaking, teaching and mentoring through Business M.O., LLC, and with M.O.’s Business Confidential Now podcast, to help entrepreneurs see business issues hiding in plain view.

Doing the right things in the right way is not only the right thing to do, it’s smart business because you’re creating a workplace where employees can be their best selves, contribute amazing things and skyrocket your business.

It lets you build a business that’s not only profitable; but, one you can be proud to tell your grandkids about some day. It also helps keep you out of court.

‘Common, you knew I had to mention that.

Oh . . . and don’t forget to check out my new book, Seeking Fairness at Work: Cracking the New Code of Greater Employee Engagement, Retention & Satisfaction.

It was recently awarded a Silver Metal Book Award by the Nonfiction Authors Association.

It’s impossible to be good at everything or know everything.

Your expertise makes you a valuable contributor early in your career; but as your management and leadership responsibilities grow, so too does the need to expand your knowledge base because it’s essential to keep your finger on the pulse of your business and be able to ask the right questions to get the information you need to make informed decisions, as well as recruit the right talent.

The show was created by Hanna Hasl-Kelchner, founder of Business M.O. and the Legal Leverage Academy, several years ago because business comes at you fast and no one can afford to get blind-sided. Especially by something you didn’t know, but somehow SHOULD know in your role as a business leader and key decision maker.

Look – It’s not your fault, even if you have one of those fancy Ivy League MBAs, it’s impossible to have all the answers.

Hanna knows this to be true as a matter of fact because she HAS one of those fancy MBAs and even taught in a few top tier MBA programs. She’s also been a practicing business attorney who has seen first-hand what happens when things go south. That’s why she created this podcast.

Hanna knows how to ask the questions that get the answers YOU need to succeed.

She’s been a trusted advisor, who for more than 35 years has helped influential business leaders and decision makers ranging from start-ups to the S&P 500 to the White House. Hanna has also seen how what you don’t know in business really can hurt you and bite you in the assets.

The show typically runs approximately 25 – 35 minutes and releases a new episode every Thursday.

It’s usually an interview show; but, once in a while Hanna will put on her lawyer hat and feature some no-nonsense legal information.
