Anecdotally Speaking is back! We’ve taken a short hiatus while travelling all over Australia and all over the world. We’ve returned home with a collection of stories shared by clients and friends we met along the way.

In this episode we welcome a guest speaker, Steve Crompton, Managing Director of Change Social UK, who completed our Storytelling for Leaders program back in 2013 when he was working for Yammer. Steve shares with us an inspiring, real life rags to riches story which proves that anyone can make a difference and achieve their dreams if they take the initiative and are willing to work hard to make it happen. The story contains a number of meaningful business points, including: anyone can make a change; great ideas should be given the time, space and resources they require to develop; and don’t expect the world to set up your dreams, make them happen.
