For this episode, David is joined by former Fortune 10. exec, and now speaker and bestselling author of Begin With We - Mr Kyle McDowell, CO. Kyle explains how leading tens of thousands of people across the world in various countries inspired him to create 10 principles for building and sustaining a culture of excellence – The 10 Wes. Kyle shares the 10 principles, why they work, and briefly explains how any leader can apply them in their own business, organisation, or life. To explore how to get unstuck on your mission, put your purpose into into practice and convert your ideas into impact book a discovery call with David here https://calendly.com/david-peoplewithpurpose/30min  KEY TAKEAWAYS Most companies are good at training employees to do their job. But very few train them to treat each other in the right way. Leaders need to understand the personal missions of each person they lead and help them to fulfil them, while also playing their role in achieving the business´ mission. Leaders set the tone. The best way to teach is to lead by example. Leaders need to live by the 10 Wes too and be prepared to be challenged diplomatically by our colleagues. Challenging others has to be done in the right way. Consistently doing the right thing is essential. Our commitments to our teammates and internal customers are just as important as those we make to our customers. Be tough on the mistakes, not on the people who make them. Challenges come regardless, embrace them, let them galvanise you and be ready to change if you need to. Care about what you do and your impact on others. BEST MOMENTS ‘I found myself leading 10s of 1000s of employees,’ ‘Being a great leader is simple, but simple does not mean easy.’ ‘It takes a leap of faith.’ ‘These principles have changed my life.’   GUEST AND EPISODE RESOURCES Book & website: https://kylemcdowellinc.com/ Socials - @kylemcdowellinc ABOUT THE SHOW People with purpose make a difference.

For this episode, David is joined by Hossam Shahin the CEO and Founder of the Career and Academic Development Centre (CADC). He has studied and worked in multiple countries an experience he benefitted from greatly, which inspired him to found CADC to help students from across the world to study abroad. He and David discuss the impact of immigration and bridging skill gaps. Hossam also provides an insight into the different ways countries fund university education and discuss the use of AI in the medical field. KEY TAKEAWAYS For every student, studying abroad brings many, many personal and career benefits. Hossam´s team guides students to help them to study abroad and when needed to use grants to do so.  Take advantage of being young, your energy, your positivity, and explore the world. Learning languages opens a lot of doors. Internships are powerful on many different levels. When it comes to being human, it's only one world, whatever happens somewhere it affects the other. Need-driven, immigration has the power to positively improve the life of the receiving country as well as the person who is immigrating. Students who have not done an internship are really missing out. AI is already helping medical institutions to direct patients to the right doctors faster. Its use in the field of medicine is accelerating. BEST MOMENTS ‘We live literally in one world,’ ‘The government really needs human resources.’ ‘I hope that everyone in the world will be able to study abroad at least one time in their life.’ ‘Be resilient, be flexible. ’   GUEST RESOURCES https://www.facebook.com/cadcus/ ABOUT THE SHOW People with purpose make a difference.

In this episode, which is the 40th of David Roberts CALM leadership series he continues to discuss the concept of influence—looking at how you can use your purpose and that of your business and colleagues to influence others.  To help you to do this he provides you with 5 influence questions you can use with potential partners, customers and team members. Using them will help you fully investigate and find the solution that will work best. KEY TAKEAWAYS You have to be very clear on what your mission is and demonstrate that you genuinely believe in what you are doing. This is particularly important when looking for a business partner. Self-awareness, clarity, and credibility are key to influencing others. Storytelling and planning are essential for effective leadership. Clear communication and emotional connection are crucial for building trust and credibility. Provide practical advice and examples people can relate to. Doing this greatly increases the chances of success. Put yourself in the other person´s shoes and consider their objections and how you can reassure them and overcome those objections. This advice applies just as much in your personal life as it does in business.. BEST MOMENTS ‘You are always influencing others,’ ‘What’s the difference you want to make in the world, how clear are you on that?’ ‘Influence comes down to trust.’ ‘Being really clear on your story and willing to share it is a key part of being influential.’   ABOUT THE SHOW People with purpose make a difference.

In this episode, David is interviewed by Natalie Bailey. They discuss the importance of curiosity, empathy, and empowering individuals to reach their full potential. David and Natalie discuss the importance of asking questions and avoiding judgment when dealing with others. They also talk about creating your own luck in business through learning, working with alignment with your values, and taking calculated risks. KEY TAKEAWAYS Knowing your purpose is empowering and drives you forward. To discover your purpose start by writing down what is important to you. If you are struggling think about what makes you feel good, e.g. helping others. Be open to evolving your purpose as your life and things around you change. Be curious and genuinely open to learning from others. Take notice of how you are feeling, including anger, and ask yourself why you are feeling that way. Embrace difference. People have different strengths and ways of doing things that can benefit the team as a whole. Be authentic, stick to your values, but also look for common ground. We all have a choice about how we respond. Some people are not going to agree with you or like you. That is normal, don´t let it put you off. Turn to nature to keep you grounded and help you to get through bumpy times.   BEST MOMENTS ‘Help others to step into their own potential.’ ‘Having clarity around the mission makes a massive difference.’ ‘You've got a choice, so make it a good one.’ ‘Sometimes in life, you need people that are not like you to help you along.’    ABOUT THE SHOW People with purpose make a difference.

In this episode, which is the 39th of David´s CALM leadership series he explains why influence is a key skill for leaders. He talks about what it is and why it is not about manipulating people. Before explaining how to become a far better influencer. David covers how to tap into the logical part of somebody´s belief system, the rational mind, and move them emotionally. As well as how to use the fact most people naturally want to connect and collaborate to influence people and get more done. KEY TAKEAWAYS Influence is the capacity to affect the character development or behaviour of someone or something, or to have an influence on the effect itself. You are always influencing someone. No matter what you do, where you are, your behaviour, and the words that you say, are influencing what goes on around you. It is people that get things done. Good leaders are good role models for those people. If you want to influence someone, plan, prepare and tailor your approach to them. Think about who you need to partner with to get things done. Work with the people who want to work with you, so you are not wasting energy trying to influence the wrong people. You can influence people on both a logical and emotional level. The innate desire humans have to make a connection and collaborate can also help you influence others. When selling, you are turning someone from a passive emotional state to actually wanting what you have to offer. You can still influence people who are not engaged with what you are trying to do. BEST MOMENTS ‘Influence is a key skill to learn,’ ‘Influence is a bit like atmosphere, we kind of exist inside of it.’ ‘Influence enables you to empower people to inspire change.’ ‘So, there's logic, there's emotion, and there's connection or collaboration.’   ABOUT THE SHOW People with purpose make a difference. Imagine a world where more people can just get their purpose out of them, into a plan and then actually make it happen. What a world that would be - People everywhere finding meaning and harnessing that to bring inspiration and energy to each and every day, changing lives for the better.

For this episode, David is joined by Nick Weiksner who is CEO of South Col, which is described as an accelerator fund partnering with E-commerce businesses to help founders, pick it up, make it grow, and then get a successful exit. Nick explains how South Col does this and what entrepreneurs should look for in an investor partner.   KEY TAKEAWAYS South Col is the last face of Mount Everest, a hard face that must be climbed to reach the summit. South Col acts as a kind of Sherpa to carry some of the stuff for entrepreneurs who are pushing their businesses to reach the peak of performance, so they can exit and sell for the best price. Once you have made a business decision, get it done and don’t look back. If a company is not communicating effectively, that issue can be fixed in just a few months. Nick only collaborates with entrepreneurs who have something that they care passionately about, a strong purpose. Be crystal clear on your niche, and your focus. Exhaust it before you move on to something else. Be honest with potential investor partners about what you need. If you need capital, don´t be shy about asking for it. If you need advice and support, make sure that regular contact is scheduled. Typically, it takes a year to get a business ready for sale.   BEST MOMENTS ‘You can continue growing your underlying business, but you have to have something transformative,’ ‘I’m driven by data.’ ‘I've never run my lemonade stand the way I want to run it. I've always run it, with outside investors, there's a board.’    GUEST AND EPISODE RESOURCES Traction by Gino Wickman / https://www.amazon.co.uk/Traction-Get-Grip-Your-Business-ebook/dp/B007QWLLV2 https://www.southcol.co/ Email: [email protected]   ABOUT THE SHOW People with purpose make a difference.

In this episode of David Roberts´ CALM leadership series he talks about the importance of having a better relationship with yourself. David explains how to make sure that you don´t try to do everything yourself, set the wrong tone, not care enough to look after yourself and your team. David shares 5 things you can do to get the balance right and build a great relationship with yourself, and, therefore, your team. KEY TAKEAWAYS As a leader it is easy to become very preoccupied with results, which can sometimes lead to your trying to do it all on your own. If your team sees you as someone who cares more about themselves than anyone, you will lose the backing of your team. If you don´t really care about yourself, you won´t be able to properly care for your team. During tough times, it is especially important that you invest in and take care of yourself. Check in on your reason, every 90 days. Put in place well being rituals e.g. going dancing twice a month to lift your spirits. Observe how you react to things, understand why, and make adjustments, as necessary. BEST MOMENTS ‘You can´t be loved, if you don´t love yourself.’ ‘If you're doing that at your own expense, then you're going to lose yourself, and therefore, you're going to lose your team.’ ‘The human brain works well in 90-day cycles.’ ‘Your reactions are the symptoms, if you like, of your mental and emotional state.’   ABOUT THE SHOW People with purpose make a difference.
