This week’s guest is the awesome Alex Barker. Alex is co-author of the brilliant book, How to: Be More Pirate and a keynote speaker and coach at the 'Be More Pirate' consultancy - an organisation that works with businesses to help them reclaim their power, purpose and potential.

· What to do if you are a free thinker, a pirate, within an organisation that doesn’t share or understand those characteristics

· The cultural norms and structures needed to define a business in order to set the foundations for pirates to flourish within an organisation

· How business leaders tap into the reserve of creative thinking they developed over the course of the pandemic to build the foundations for a culture of radical thinking

· Why some leaders might fear a pirate approach in business

· Whether self-awareness is the biggest inhibitor to adoption of more pirate thinking

· If pirate thinking within teams could also lead to silo thinking

The New P&L – Principles & Leadership in Business speaks to Oliver Percovich, founder & Executive Director of Skateistan Jun 11, 2022

Show notes

This week’s guest on The New P&L – Principles & Leadership in Business podcast is the awesome Oliver Percovich, founder and Executive Director of Skateistan. A lifelong skateboarder, Oliver moved to Afghanistan from Australia in 2007 when his then girlfriend took a job in Kabul. Looking to explore, he would skate the city, and street-working kids would follow him around and ask to try. In 2008, Oliver founded Skateistan, a grassroots 'Sport for Development' project on the streets of Kabul.
Today, Skateistan is an award-winning international organization with Skate Schools and programs running in Afghanistan, Cambodia, South Africa, Jordan, Lebanon and Belgium, to name a few. The organization is the first international development initiative to combine skateboarding with educational outcomes. Skateistan’s programs are for children aged 5 to 17 with a focus on girls, children living with disabilities and those from low-income backgrounds. Through their innovative programs, Skateistan aims to give children the opportunity to become leaders for a better world.

The New P&L TO THE POINT on why being comfortable is the enemy of being curious Jun 07, 2022

Show notes

This week on The New P&L TO THE POINT we discuss the challenges of creating an environment that actively feeds our curiosity in a hybrid world of work. One of the side benefits of when we all used to travel and commute to work every day and spend time in the office was the vast amount of mental, visual, ambient sound all around us all of the time - all of which provided a rich potential source for our curiosity and creativity. In a new world where the commute and the office now solely or largely consists of working in the comfort of our own home, we have to be far more proactive about how we source the food that feeds our curiosity, which is ultimately so crucial to the future of business innovation.

The New P&L TO THE POINT on Connection Vs Connecting May 06, 2022

Show notes

This week on The New P&L TO THE POINT we discuss the difference in business between 'connecting' and 'connection' and how the latter may help leaders and employers build a more compelling rationale for a more hybrid approach to the future of work - one based on providing a compelling reason for employees to come into the office some of the time, rather than approaching it from a point of compulsion.
