Now there are many reasons why I knew that today’s guest would be someone you’d really enjoy learning from, not least the title of his most recent book, “Exploding Turkeys and Spare Trousers, Adventures in Global Business”! Ken Pasternak has a unique background that combines executive education, keynote speaking, management consulting, institution building, and corporate banking. Like me, he started out on a path to medicine but pivoted into a very different career...
On this podcast I learn about many different types of Unlock Moment. Some of them are subtle – the voice in your head telling you “this isn’t the right path for me.” Some of them are clear – the doctor telling you you have to change your lifestyle or suffer significant consequences. And some are dramatic – a sudden, remarkable clarity that leads to immediate and bold action. Today’s one of the dramatic ones! I met Tony Martignetti recently but we share quite a few connections in common...
These days so many people, so many leaders I work describe themselves as stuck on the hamster wheel, firefighting the daily crises and struggling to find time, get their head up and properly look to the future. So it is perhaps timely that today I’m welcoming one of the world’s foremost authorities on vision and visionary leadership to the podcast. Dr. Oleg Konovalov is a global thought leader, author, business educator, consultant, and C-suite coach...
In a world where organisations are facing into huge volatility, challenge and uncertainty, we need leaders who can dig deep and go searching for the powerful truths that unlock the potential in all our people. And if you’re looking for someone who is an expert in going digging, find yourself a person who cut their teeth as an undercover agent in the Drug Enforcement Agency, the DEA...
I’ve been thinking a lot recently about the topic of finding balance, especially in the context of this volatile, uncertain world we’re living in. Often people tell me they can’t find balance because they don’t seem to be able to step off that hamster wheel. Well today I’m delighted to welcome a guest to the podcast who is going to help us think differently about the power of a reset moment in the midst of a intense career trajectory...
It's always a privilege to interview a true pioneer on the podcast, and today I'm delighted to welcome Loree Draude, who became one of the first woman to fly combat jets in the US Navy. Now she's a seasoned leader and entrepreneur who advises and coaches executives and founders on how to improve their leadership...
Content note: this episode features a discussion about severe depression, suicidal ideation and treatment with ketamine. Sometimes I have conversations with people on this platform who can speak to subjects that others might be thinking about but have never expressed openly. I met today’s guest recently and it is my huge privilege to bring his story to the podcast. Rob Kalwarowsky is an impactful leader whose quiet realisations give his community loud transformations...
One of the reasons why I love the world of ballroom dancing is because it connected me with an amazing global network of friends who, off the dance floor, come from all walks of life. Almost twenty years ago I met my wife Mildred through dancing, and through Mildred I met today’s guest and a very good friend over many years, Vicki Sato...
Let's just say this isn't the conversation I thought we were going to be having. Raw, emotional, unflinchingly honest and vulnerable - this is a story of commitment and compromise, connecting with purpose and priorities in balancing a hugely demanding career with family. It's a deeply memorable episode and I know it will resonate with so many of you. Enjoy this powerful conversation with the extraordinary Torie Campbell...
