KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Less than two weeks ago a law firm in London was put into liquidation because two of the partners had syphoned money from a client’s account to the tune of £60 million. The staff that work there are now faced with a sense of insecurity by now not being able to provide for their loved ones or having the safety that job gave them. There’s no professional fulfilment because it turns out they were working for crooks. 
  • Time is the one thing we don’t get back. Time is the most valuable asset we have and there’s a lot of senior directors and executive board members out there I know that who want more time in their lives. One of the things I help people do is create time. However, if you allow for these instances to occur you leave yourself helpless.
  • We all think that it’s a great thing that we have so much ability  though the tip of our fingers through technology, but trust me, when it comes to running a company, if you’re new to this, make sure you have an accountant involved, make sure that they’re liable, make sure that they have insurance, and make sure that you have 2 factor authentication.

BEST MOMENTS
‘If you are in any leadership position, regardless of if it’s just a directorship, the company structure, the ability, agility, adaptability that someone alone can have is frightening.’
‘It can seem like it’s arse-covering, and I think that’s why there’s a lack of enthusiasm and a sense of reluctance to use 2 factor authentication, but it’s there to benefit us all.’
‘It’s a checks and balances.’

ABOUT THE HOST
Gavin Scott is a born entrepreneur with a passion for start up and scale up. He has over 20 years real estate experience in investment and development.

Gavin says: Over the years I have discovered that mindset is everything. Now, that might sound obvious, but it is! You see the number of awoken minds are very few in reality. Whilst acknowledging mindset is key it is absolutely different from utilising, influencing, impacting and effecting great change, for yourself, your loved ones, friends, colleagues and the wider public.

Why?

Like most of us I have had many ups and downs. I want to share the lessons learnt and promote a better environment for all, internally and externally!

How?

Through sharing my own experiences and hosting some fabulous individuals including some big household names to discuss key topics around mindset and the success formulas I hope the listener will become inspired to create space for change for betterment in their lives. I aim to inspire change by encouragement, not by force. I intend to inspire by education, not by regulation.
