965 Rich Horwath: Success Through Strategic Thinking Sep 07, 2019

Show notes

Rich was inspired to start the Strategic Thinking Institute by a single question a manager asked him during a break at a strategic planning retreat twenty years ago: “I had my performance review and my boss said I’m too tactical. How can I become more strategic?” He realized there simply wasn’t a roadmap to help managers move from tactical to strategic. So, he created one. As the CEO of the Strategic Thinking Institute, Rich has helped more than 100,000 managers develop their strategic thinking skills through live workshops and virtual learning programs. He guides executive management teams through the strategy process, and provides coaching to senior leaders to maximize their strategic potential. Rich has appeared on ABC, NBC, CBS, and FOX TV, and his work has been featured in publications such as Fast Company, Forbes, and the Harvard Business Review. He is a New York Times and Wall Street Journal bestselling author of seven books on strategic thinking including, StrategyMan vs. The Anti-Strategy Squad, which won “Best Strategy Book of 2018” (Axiom Business Book Awards). Rich has created more than 200 resources on strategic thinking in his mission to help people think strategically to set direction and create advantage.

963 Chris Mailander: The Intersection Of Corporate Strategy And Psychology Sep 03, 2019

Show notes

Chris Mailander is author of The Craft. The book really plays at the intersection of corporate strategy and psychology. It decodes how business leaders perceive, react and think in their most critical moments. Those moments when the pressure is really on. When emotions run high. When things become unpredictable. The moments when there is a direct relationship between psychology of the individuals at the negotiating table, and the financial value that is going to show up later on the P&L or balance sheet. Chris has worked around the world, from political Washington, to Corporate America, to doing deals in war zones (literally), decoding what is going on in these moments... those moments when, quite frankly, some business leaders rise, and some do not. In 'The Craft', Chris reveals his methods for how you can succeed in moments like this. Want to invite Chris to speak at your next corporate event?

956 Patrick Willis: Thriving with a Terminal Illness Aug 17, 2019

Show notes

After a working lifetime going from nerdy engineer to financial services executive, Patrick Willis quit being a corporate drone to look for something better. Whilst working out how to put his business experience and coaching skills to better use, he found a bigger "why": Imagine a busy, working person walking out of the doctor's one day being told they have a terminal illness, there are not words to describe the shock and range of emotions that come up. We 21st century Westerners like to think we're immortal… until we're not. As anyone who's been there will tell you, the mental battle and pain is usually worse than the physical one, and yet most medical resources are marshalled to fixing you physically. Having seen the turmoil and pain people receiving a terminal diagnosis go through, Patrick launched a coaching business to help them make the most of the rest of their life. To not only cope, but thrive. Patrick's dream is a support system that grabs the hand of every person leaving the doctor's office with a terminal diagnosis and empowers them to live life to the full. He is currently writing a book : Unfinished Business - a handbook to thriving with a terminal illness.
