  • BMH54: How Stories Help us Reclaim Our Humanity with Rain Bennett

    Stories are a powerful tool of influence. But, how do you use that influence? Do you use that power to divide and inflame the primal fears of your audience or do you use it to connect and heal? 

    In today’s Be More Human Podcast I’m joined by documentary filmmaker Rain Bennett to discuss the power of stories through some of his recent projects including “Raise Up: The World Is Our Gym” and his latest project involving solving a Southern settler mystery that has long been lost to lore and history. 

    In this podcast we discuss race, identity, Calisthenics, the Origin Myths of America, Robert F Kennedy, Martin Luther King, Fairy Tales, The Godfather, 1984, The Lion King, Donal Trump and many more cultural artefacts and tropes that continue to define modern society.

  • BMH49: Work from home is not the office but at home
    Produced by Pikkal & Co - Award-Winning Podcast Agency .
    Work From Home isn't "the office but at home. We are experiencing rapid and unforeseen disruption that requires these qualities of response. We've seen major disruption to the Supply Chains of business wrought by the Pandemic. We are experiencing a shift to Work From Home, but what many fail to appreciate is that these aren't operational challenges, these are communications challenges. In response, we are experiencing the early stages of a macro Shift in how organisations communicate: from a traditional "Loudspeaker” model of communication to that of a modern "Telephone”. Building a Storytelling Organization is about how your Organization won't just survive, but Thrive in the next decade.

  • BMH48: Be digital vs do digital
    Produced by Pikkal & Co - Award-Winning Podcast Agency .
    How companies are reacting now to "Work from Home" exposes the difference in "Be Digital" vs "Do Digital". "Work from Home" is just "Do Digital". "Work from Anywhere" is "Be Digital". It's the same with Branding. In the Digital Era, Branding will become no more than the echo of a bygone era, a shockwave from the past. Be Digital means giving your people a voice, means thinking like Edison or Franklin and being able to separate the problem from the solution.

  • BMH47: People follow people not brands
    Produced by Pikkal & Co - Award-Winning Podcast Agency .
    People follow people not brands. Brand isn't a logo or a strategy, it's how you touch your customers and your ecosystem on a daily basis. The more we AUTOMATE, the more we have to slow things down and be in the moment. The more we move to the digital CLOUD, the more we have to focus on what's analog and offline. The more we use AI, the more we have to amplify the human touch.

  • BMH46: Military and the 5th industrial revolution
    Produced by Pikkal & Co - Award-Winning Podcast Agency .
    The 2020s will be defined by the 4th industrial revolution - Artificial Intelligence and exponential yield gains in efficiency. But what comes next? Each successive industrial revolution is exactly half the length of the one before it. That means 19 years after the 4th Industrial Revolution, we will welcome the 5th - Artificial Life. And it looks like the military have already started exploring their option.s

  • BMH45: Why spies put stones in their shoes
    Produced by Pikkal & Co - Award-Winning Podcast Agency .
    In the world of Espionage, there is a difference between an amateur and professional spy. Amateurs don't have long careers because they're easily caught. Professionals, however, know that building trust is less about the obvious "big picture" hacks that amateurs use like a beard or fake nose. The reason is that we build trust with people through many smaller cues. Take, for example, how easy it is to spot a friend 100 metres away just by the way they walk. That's why if you want to look like an old man, you got to focus on the small picture - like putting a stone in your shoe. These lessons from the world of Spies teach us a lot about how we need to build trust in the virtual world.
