Dr Alan Watkins is working to solve the world's toughest wicked problems. He and his team coach the Boards and Executives of the Fortune 500/FTSE350 to expand their thinking and speed of thought by factors of 10x, delivering ROIs as high as 6,000x.
We dig into what wicked problems are, and how to get to their root causes, and how to develop equally wicked solutions. Alan is a polymath, so we get to explore problems through several interrelated lenses to see how wicked problems are interdependent. Alan shows the importance of looking at these complex, sophisticated problems from multiple perspectives, and shows why truly diverse teams are vital to prepare you what's to come.

Farhad Eftekhari is founder of TechClass, a learning platform based on the Finnish education system. It caught my attention because the "gold standard" for completion of online learning is ... wait for it ... 3%! TechClass can boast 50% completion rates.
We discuss the intent behind training and why so much training fails to move the needle in performance. A fascinating journey into what works and why.

Asa Hochhauser and his team build effective technology stacks for marketers to help drive pipeline, and sales sell more, more often, for more money. This episode is packed with practical advice, built on expertise and currency. Asa is direct, frank and pragmatic.
Stop buying shiny objects in the hope that you will fix your sales and marketing problems until you've given the requisite thought and investigation into your real problems. Technology alone will not solve the problem, and poorly considered tech implementations often result in unintended consequences. Salespeople spending less time in front of customers. Longer sales cycles. More activity and less effective action.

"We don't see things as they are; we see them as we are" - Anaïs Nin
"On average across your workforce, your average employee spend 2.5 hours a day in drama". Cy Wakeman is a drama researcher. You know, mountains out of molehills, judgement, prejudices, catastrophising; the kind of shit we create for ourselves. It happens in families, organisations and companies. Then we filter the world through that haze of bile, imagined sleights, misinterpretation and of course our old friends judgement and attachment.
Cy and I get deep and dirty on the detritus of our minds and explore ways to respond more effectively, cut away the emotional fog and get to the Truth. Buckle up!

Piracy – especially in the 1600s – was an explosive response to conflicts in trade and the greed of behemoth institutions, governments, and nations.
Today in sales I see something very similar.
The massive organisations that dominate so much of the business landscape are getting to be too big to defend themselves.
What does that make them vulnerable to?
A small, elite, laser-focused group of people who are united on a single goal.
