THE LONG, COMPLEX REACH OF ST OR Y B Y L E W I S K E N DA L L

BEFORE ITS ACQUISITION by global tech giant Oracle in late 2011, RightNow Technologies employed roughly 500 workers spread out among its Bozeman offices. At the time, the customer service software company, founded by tech mogul and current U.S. House candidate Greg Gianforte, was the city’s largest employer and only publicly traded company, generating roughly $185 million in annual revenue. Following the $1.5 billion sale, many of those 500 employees kept their jobs under the Oracle umbrella. Others, however, chose to strike out on their own. Since 2011, former RightNow employees have helped form at least 15 startups in and around

Bozeman, from a small hat making operation to a nationally recognized software company. While by no means the first tech company in the Gallatin Valley, business leaders look back on the splintering of RightNow as a pivotal moment for an area that has recently emerged as a national hotbed for tech and entrepreneurship, describing the sale as a “cash bomb” and the “lightning strike that started life from the primordial soup.” “I would have never arrived in Bozeman if it hadn’t been for RightNow,” said Mike Meyer in a phone interview last week. The seventh person in the door at RightNow, Meyer worked as the company’s CTO before leaving shortly after its acquisition to work with New York

City-based tech startup Dataminr. In October 2015, Meyer formed Quiq — formerly Centricient — a customer service messaging platform that has since grown to employ 28 workers in its downtown Bozeman office. “Neither one of those would be here if I hadn’t come to Montana,” he said. A recent report released by the Montana High Tech Business Alliance — for which Gianforte serves as board chair — on the “entrepreneurial ecosystems” of Missoula and Bozeman further emphasized the importance of RightNow as an industry catalyst.

EARLIER THIS MONTH, reporter Troy Carter left us. He’s still alive, mind you, but he left the Chronicle to take a job at Montana State University. I learned a lot from Troy in the few years I worked with him. As a politics reporter, Troy was as dogged as he was hard-headed. I have vivid memories of Troy getting into heated phone arguments with just about every politician and political spokesperson in Montana. He was also notoriously quick to text about something he heard on the police scanner he kept in his car. From our small newsroom, Troy broke stories of statewide importance, including his investigation of convicted murderer Barry Beach, or his story about famed paleontologist Jack Horner’s exit from MSU. Troy was a good reporter and an even better friend. He will be missed.

cife, a city of 1.5 million in Brazil’s northeastern state, around 2005. After convincing her to move back to Bozeman (“He told her it was 85 degrees year-round,” said Antonucci’s brother-in-law and

business partner Rad Burns), the two began planning a restaurant concept. A native of Brazil, Ana Antonucci is an experienced cook, and Alden Antonucci, 32, wanted to

introduce Bozeman to the country’s culture. The couple invited Alden Antonucci’s sister, realtor Arison Antonucci-Burns, and her husband Burns, a local firefighter, to help with the project. After a brief stint with a mobile food cart, a brick and mortar version of the cafe opened last year in the Bozeman Gateway development next to the now-defunct Craft Beer Cellar. The menu includes several Brazilian dishes concocted by Ana Antonucci, including panini sandwiches made with tapioca flour bread, as well as a variety of smoothies, juices and the eatery’s signature “wellness bowls” — sorbet-style treats constructed from acai and dragon fruit. On the weekends, Oba serves feijoada, a type of black bean stew with beef or pork on top of a bed of rice and accompanied by pão de queijo — Brazilian cheese bread. As much of the fare is gluten free or vegetarian, it fits in well with many current dietary trends, the owners said. “Once folks taste the products, we have them coming back,” Burns said. “The product speaks for itself.” But Oba is about more than its food, its owners said. Most nights, the cafe hosts some type of social activity, from Spanish lessons to swing dancing and salsa classes. “We wanted to bring that culture to Bozeman,” said Alden Antonucci. “What we have is a (Rio de Janeiro)-

themed cafe. If you were on the beach in Rio, this is what you would see.” The business has had to overcome several hurdles, its owners said, including struggling to retain a solid group of employees and a lengthy permitting process with the city. And with a lack of consistent foot traffic, the cafe’s location also has proved difficult. “With any business, you have these pitfalls that you try to anticipate,” Antonucci-Burns said. But these stumbling blocks haven’t stopped Oba from getting involved in the local community, she added, sponsoring several local sports teams, as well as contributing to organizations such as Eagle Mount and Haven. And while the business is still teething, Alden Antonucci said he is looking ahead to growing into a larger location and potentially franchising the business to other cities. Oba’s food cart will also make appearances throughout the Valley this summer. In Portuguese, oba means “great” or “wow” and that, its owners said, is the reaction they hope to elicit. “We want it to be a fun place and bring a fun energy that is different than the rest of Bozeman,” Antonucci-Burns said. “That’s the whole point of it, to be fun.” Kendall can be reached at lkendall@dailychronicle.com.

[ Quarterly advice for business and life from a revolving cast of three columnists ]

Vacation season BY ROBYN ERLENBUSH

AS WE MOVE TOWARD what will ideally be another stellar tourist season, those who are heading to Southwest Montana may still be firming up their travel plans, including where they will stay while on vacation. The old days of motel versus hotel or perhaps a bed and breakfast are gone. The newer model of accommodations still includes those choices, but adds in the addition of vacation rentals. It is both well-known and documented that tourism plays a vital role in our state’s economy. The preliminary data for year-end 2016, provided by the Institute for Tourism and Recreation Research via the University of Montana, credits nonresident visitors spending an estimated $3.49 billion in the state. Of that total, 14 percent — approximately $488 million — was spent on lodging. This number exemplifies why “where to stay” is big business. You can further add to those figures the in-state spending as we Montanans travel and experience our own vast state. Yellowstone National Park is of particular consequence in our own backyard. Visitation numbers for 2016 once again broke records, weighing in at 4,257,177 visits. The out-of-area guests chose to either camp in the park, stay at lodging within the park or find accommodations in the gateway cities. This year is anticipated to be another record year, so making reservations right away is highly recommended. Vacation rentals consist of a wide variety of property types. They are privately owned, furnished and set up for guests to come right in and make themselves at home for their stay. Examples range from an apartment in the heart of the downtown

6

A P R I L 2 5 , 2 017 • B U S I N E S S J O U R N A L

hustle and bustle to a luxury home near a river or lake. Many of the options will require a multi-night rental, so if a traveler is passing through for just one evening, a hotel may remain a better option. Though vacation rentals have been around for decades, the perception of them has changed dramatically from being edgy to conventional. It is interesting to take note that statistics have been gathered on what types of people gravitate toward vacation rentals over hotels. Half of the consumers who are looking online will book within the same day that they start looking. Travelers use many forms of social media to plan their entire trip, so if a rental owner or manager

can provide above and beyond information on the area, they will stand apart from the crowd. So how do you find just the right property for your upcoming vacation or business trip? Property management companies advertise, handle bookings and payments and take care of property maintenance on behalf of the owners. A top-notch management company will ensure that there are quality consistency standards followed on all of their properties. Repeat business on well-kept properties and top notch reviews are what set companies apart. According to Chris Torsleff, managing partner of Stay Montana, the demand for vacation rentals has skyrocketed over the last five years. The industry segment is successful in that it has evolved using a hotel-like approach in areas such as adding amenities to the properties, utilizing concierge services and providing a book now model. Airbnb is one example of an online travel agency (OTA) in which consumers have access to homes in approximately 35,000 cities and 200 countries. Booking is done online, and prices are generally less expensive than traditional hotels since there are fewer trimmings and overhead involved. The

choices of “room” run the gamut from renting a bedroom in a home to arranging accommodations in a mansion. Travelers often opt for this mode of lodging because they feel it gives a better opportunity to experience how it feels to be a local in an established neighborhood versus in a well-established commercial section of a town. Other OTA leaders include VRBO, FlipKey and HomeAway. This business model often receives attention with claims that private rentals erode the area’s long term rental affordability and availability as well as taking business away from traditional hotels. These are issues that will continue to evolve and face scrutiny over permits and the like as the industry adapts to a new normal. Whether you are looking for a ski-in ski-out condo in the wintertime, a lakeside home for summer vacation or an apartment with all the pulse of downtown living for a long shopping weekend, finding a vacation rental may help provide the perfect experience for your needs.

BUSINESS MATTERS

Pros and cons of weekend warriors BY MAURY WIEGAND

AMERICANS WORK MORE THAN anyone in the industrialized world. More than Europeans, more than Canadians and recently, it appears, even more than the Japanese. According to numerous news organizations including ABC news, Bloomberg news, Business Insider and others, we take fewer vacations, less time off and also retire later. With both the American Heart Association and the CDC currently recommending a minimum of 150 minutes per week of moderate intensity aerobic exercise plus two workouts per week of strength training, how do we fit it all in? For many people, jamming it all in on the weekend seems to be the best option. But what kind of results does this provide and what risks are at stake in being a weekend warrior? In a recent report (March 2017) published in JAMA Internal Medicine, a review of exercise habits of 63,500 people scrutinized this question. Data was collected from 1994 until 2012, then analyzed in 2016. The raw conclusions reveal some optimistic news for time-challenged exercisers. The bottom line is that engaging in even one or two workout sessions per week may be sufficient in reducing all causes of mortality, including cardiovascular disease and cancer risks. Participants who did all their activity on one or two days (150 minutes of moderate aerobic activity or 75 minutes of vigorous intensity) had a 40 percent lower risk of

death from heart disease compared to people that were inactive. Death from cancer dropped by about 20 percent. So what the heck, should we all just shoot for a couple of workouts a week? Unfortunately, it’s not that easy. Advantages of exercising frequently still remains the hands down best strategy for both health, injury prevention and of course for any performance advantage that might be gained. One reason that frequency counts is because weekend warriors get hurt more often. The downside to intense sporadic exercise is an increase in acute injuries. Unlike the plaguing overuse injuries of marathon runners, the spontaneous rugby match or the once a month tennis rally can result in soft tissue strains and tears. We all know co-workers who have come limping into the office on Monday after an epic weekend workout.

A short list of the most common weekend warrior injuries that hobble into our clinic on Mondays include: Shin splints: Usually from an overdose of running and sprinting (weekend football, soccer or jogs up the M). Sprained ankles: Can incur in almost any sport that involves changing directions quickly. Achilles tendonitis: The tendons in the back lower part of our legs, which tend to lose elasticity with age and can be irritated or even torn with sudden force. Knee pain: A broad spectrum of ailments but very common in sports that require running. In Bozeman we could lump the many ski related knee injuries into this category. Plantar fasciitis: Again, very common in running sports particularly when increases in mileage happen quickly. Lower back pain: Another broad category, but muscle strains induced after too much activity are common after a hard weekend. There are a few things that the infrequent exerciser might do to increase results and decrease injuries: Try adding a ten- to 15-minute walk or jog during

your lunch hour or before or after work. Gradually increase intensity on these workouts so they begin to feel like high intensity intervals. Even squeezing one or two short but more intense workouts into your week can make a difference in your overall fitness level. Realize and respect your current fitness limits by taking scheduled breaks during that epic weekend adventure. During these breaks, include five to ten minutes of stretching, drink some water and review the pace of the workout. Time outs: Discontinue the workout when you recognize signs that you are overdoing it. I applaud the weekend warrior. Your reward for doing something, as opposed to surfing your couch, is multi-fold. Besides increased longevity, you might end up creating some great memories. Engaging in activities on the weekend that leaves you happier, will only further motivate you in making better choices during your busy work week. If you only have time to exercise once or twice a week, it is entirely worth your effort. Maury Wiegand is the fitness and corporate wellness director at The Club at Bridger Orthopedics West.

FINANCIAL TIPS

BY MEGHANN McKENNA

Spring break behind, summer ahead I LOVE THE ENERGY of a family or group of college friends on spring break or packing up for summer vacation. Over the last few months I have listened to clients and friends talk about all the time and planning that has gone into their vacations, which range from trips to the beach, visiting a wide array of Montana’s ski resorts or some wild rides at the amusement park. Eyes light up as they talk about the plans and then the energy continues when they return to talk about the experience. Over the years, I have read several articles stating many Americans spend more time planning their upcoming vacation than they do their own retirement. It is easy to make the argument that this is not logical, but we generally think as much with our heart as we do with our

8

A P R I L 2 5 , 2 017 • B U S I N E S S J O U R N A L

heads. A vacation is much more immediate gratification and may seem easier to “grasp” than something 20 years away. How can we get to a place where we spend as much, if not more, time on our retirement planning than we do on planning for a vacation? A better approach might be to add some heart and excitement to our retirement planning as well. Each year when you sit down to plan the annual spring break trip or vacation and to set aside the budget, allocate an equal amount of time and money towards something for retire-

ment. I strongly believe we all are probably looking forward to some version of retirement just as much as time on the beach — the issue generally is with timeframe. We can all only handle a certain number of tasks and the family vacation is going to happen sooner than retirement. As you budget for the big vacation, set aside money in another account that can go into your “special retirement fund.” This may not be in with your other traditional retirement account; instead, put it in a place where you can watch it grow separately and celebrate your accomplishment over the years. Especially when you return from that vacation with family and friends.

very overt sense that it can be done,” Craig said. “Now I’m getting to the point where when I meet someone who’s doing something successful in tech in Bozeman, I’m curious about where the RightNow connections is.” While the sale helped kickstart the local startup scene, there have been drawbacks. Unlike similar examples of company fracturing in places like Silicon Valley, the Oracle purchase did not inject large amounts of capital into the local ecosystem, Craig said. “The one unfortunate thing, if you look at multiple iterations of successful unicorns in Silicon Valley, the senior leadership pour capital back into the (ecosystem). And that’s the one thing that hasn’t really happened from RightNow, and I’m not sure why,” he said. “We’re still a little undercapitalized, but the good news is we have the confidence.” But in some ways the sale did act as a shot in the arm for regional capital investment. Having business leaders, like those former RightNow employees, with proven track records of success makes it easier to both attract and distribute funding, said Will Price, founder of local venture capital firm Next Frontier Capital. “There’s this creative destruction. As companies rise and fall, the alumni go on and take their experiences and spawn other companies,” Price said.

“The acquisition was not the end of the entrepreneurial activities. Former RightNow Technologies employees started at least 15 new companies in the 2010s — not only in related sectors, such as internet, IT service, software and network security, but also in other sectors such as marketing consulting, consumer electronics and package delivery. Some of these companies now employ dozens to a hundred employees,” the report reads. “You cannot underestimate the impact of that. Certainly the landscape in Bozeman in terms of high tech is different,” said Christina Henderson, executive director of the High Tech Alliance. “It showed Montana and on a national level what’s possible here. Prior to that sale, people didn’t believe you could scale a global tech company in Montana.” There certainly had been success stories before RightNow. Chris Nelson founded multinational risk analysis company Zoot Enterprises in 1990. The business, headquartered in Four Corners, employs more than 250 people across several countries. But RightNow’s large price tag helped grab the tech world’s attention, said Les Craig, program director of the Blackstone LaunchPad, Montana State University’s business incubator. “What RightNow has done is it has created a

business f o r s o u t h w e s t M o n ta n a

Financial ServiceS

“That growth process is vital.” And the impact of RightNow goes beyond its former employees. Several executives cited the arrival to Bozeman of credit rating and software analytics company FICO as a prime example of the more intangible effects of a large company like RightNow. Both FICO CEO Will Lansing and executive vice president for sales, marketing and services Wayne Huyard previously held positions at RightNow. It’s easy to forget, however, that a key ingredient in the “RightNow effect” is the area itself, Meyer said. “The RightNow presence has generated a lot of tech interest, but it’s also the fact that we’re located in a place (like this),” he said. “RightNow was the seed that is growing in fertile opportunity.” Moreover, it’s often the people, rather than the company name, that make the difference between successful growth and deflating stagnation, added Kregg Aytes, dean of MSU’s Jake Jabs College of Business & Entrepreneurship. “They’re to some degree driven by necessity because they want to stay here. They want to stay here so they find ways to do that,” he said. “Necessity is the mother of invention in this state.” Kendall can be reached at lkendall@dailychronicle.com.

Since 1986 Bozeman Health’s mission has been to improve community health and quality of life. It’s our pleasure to care for you, and we’re proud to be a vital part of the health and economies of Southwest Montana. In addition to providing essential services to keep our community’s workforce healthy and productive, Bozeman Health provides well-paying jobs, purchases significant quantities of supplies and services, and is fundamental to supporting the region’s quality of life. According to a 2015 economic impact study by Prospera, Southwest Montana’s economy would lose more than 2,000 jobs and nearly $150 million in personal income if Bozeman Health didn’t exist. For every $1 in revenue, it is recirculated roughly 1.72 times within our local economies before moving out to the rest of the state. Our 2015-2016 investments in Big Sky Medical Center, Belgrade Clinic, and Medical Office Building 5 alone injected $73.42 million to the regional economy and supported 452 jobs in Gallatin, Park, and Madison counties. As a non-profit, we reinvest in our community through facilities, technology, and services to keep up with community growth and expectations, and the evolving healthcare industry. We know that succeeding in the current environment requires careful study and planning. Our strategy focuses on care transformation across the continuum of care to continue the shift to value-based payment, consumerism as a driver to adapt to a retail-based healthcare orientation, and care integration that leverages relationships with partners to deliver the right service at the right time. Within that strategic

framework, we anticipate an operating model that prioritizes care experience for patients and families, caregivers and providers; care excellence, through evidence-based care, topdecile clinical outcomes, and safety; and care performance, centered on stewardship, efficiency and innovation. Fortunately, we already have in place a key element necessary to achieve our goals: our intelligent, capable, optimistic, and service-oriented employees. Bozeman Health has undergone massive change in the past 18 months, with the implementation of a new electronic medical record system, shift in leadership, construction of new care facilities, and growing threats from competitors. Through it all, our care team has consistently delivered high-quality, compassionate care. Healthcare is a 24/7 business and the foundation upon which successful employees, businesses, and communities flourish. Bozeman Health’s dedication to Southwest Montana goes beyond treatment of disease and episodic care. We are proud to partner with Montana State University through the WWAMI medical and nursing education programs to help to prepare a strong workforce for the future of Montana, including our rural communities. Our partnerships and collaborations with agencies and organizations outside the healthcare sector, deliberate involvement of the community in health decision-making, and use of evidence-based strategies to engage with communities, optimizes the health and quality of life of all people who work, live, and play in the communities we serve.

My Two Cents “I work with someone I don’t trust. She is an executive at one of my client’s businesses. I used to trust her, but something happened between us and we don’t seem to be able to overcome the tension that now exists. I really don’t know what to do, especially since we have to work together occasionally. Any suggestions?” - J.E., Bozeman, business owner I have a belief, J.E., that pain is inevitable; suffering, however, is optional. Great leaders find actions to move out of suffering, and this could be an opportunity for you. The first time I heard that I started laughing and thought, “Yeah, right. Show me how.” I have since become a believer. When we get stuck in the “pain” of dealing with tense relationships, we often try to avoid the person, blame them or treat them as if something is wrong with who they are. Sometimes we do all three. As you can imagine, that doesn’t help. It only adds to the tension. How long we stay in the suffering of it, however, is up to us. It depends on how quickly we can consciously move into action. Here’s what makes that hard. A loss of trust can be painful. It’s hard to work with someone you don’t trust without finding problems in everything they do. What I have noticed is that once we decide we can’t trust somebody, we begin looking for them to “show up” as not trustworthy anyway. No matter what. We’re expecting it to happen. And guess what? When we look for a lack of trust with the other person, we’ll find it, even when it’s not there. From our point of view, they can’t show up any other way. So that’s how we treat them, as untrustworthy. The problem is, they probably feel the same way about us. Do you see how we can perpetuate our own suffering? The way to stop this reactive cycle from spiraling out of control may surprise you. We have

to look inside ourselves for another way, for a different action. I’ll offer a two-step practice I actually used myself last week in a situation not unlike the one you describe above. It involved a colleague I’ll call Karen. The practice is called Turning Shoulds Into Coulds, and you might be taken aback at the shift you feel when you try this. The first step is to list all the “shoulds” you have about this person. Your list of “shoulds” are really your expectations of them. Write out this list using the word should in each expectation you have of this person. Keep listing your expectations until you run out of steam. You’ll probably feel better, too. Getting this list out of you helps, if only to give you better insights into what’s causing the pain. That’s where the actions can come from. Here are three of the “shoulds” I used with the tense relationship I needed to address: Karen should be an ally instead of a competitive adversary. Karen should apologize for what she did with my client. Karen should trust us. Even now as I write these, I realize how uncomfortable Karen must feel being around me if I see her this way. Our emotions are more transparent than we think. The second step is to go through your list and cross out the word should in each expectation. Replace it with the word could. Here’s what my list looked like after I did that: Karen could be an ally instead of a competitive adversary. Karen could apologize for what she did with my client. Karen could trust us. Notice what possibilities pop up as you hear yourself reading the new expectations. For me, it shifted the focus from making Karen wrong to something I might need to do. For instance, in saying Karen could be an ally instead of a

By RIS HIGGINS

competitive adversary, I began to wonder what would have to happen for that to occur. What would Karen need? What could I do to help make that happen? What request could Karen make of me? What request could I make of her? I found myself actually feeling differently about Karen. I saw possibilities instead of dead ends. The same thing happened when I considered the changed expectation that “Karen could trust us.” I wondered what would need to happen for that to take place. What would she need to trust us? What would I need to do? The change in what I felt amazed me. I was no longer blaming Karen for not trusting us, but considering possibilities that moments before would never have entered the realm of possibility. This practice enables us to move consciously through suffering and into action with a fresh perspective. I urge you to try it, J.E. What it means for me is the next time I see Karen my radar won’t go off screaming, “Danger! Danger! Here she comes,” but rather, “Oh, there’s Karen. Good. I have several things I want to talk to her about.” Not sure? Consider this an empowering practice for you to reclaim your effectiveness as a leader. Walt Whitman captured this point beautifully when he offered, “Have you learned lessons only of those who admired you, and were tender with you, and stood aside for you? Have you not learned lessons from those who brace themselves against you and dispute the passage with you?” In fact, Karen did that for me. She became what I call a developmental angel, triggering an upset that opened up learning and growth for me. May you, too J.E., find the upside in your developmental angel, learning insights nobody else could have opened for you. Ris Higgins is a leadership coach, change agent, and innovative thought leader. She has spent the last 24 years learning the joys and challenges of leading her business with her husband, Joe.
