Welcome back to Pharmacist Diaries and Episode Two of our Entrepreneur Series! In today's episode, I am joined by Yasir Sacranie to dive into the essential skills required for both an entrepreneurial journey as well as the world of pharmacy. Get ready to uncover the secrets to success!

In this episode, we explore the fascinating overlap between the skills needed as an entrepreneur and the skills cultivated as a pharmacist. I reflect upon my own journey and highlight three crucial skills for my own success:

Communication and Public Speaking: Discover how effective communication is not only vital for pharmacists but also plays a pivotal role in the podcasting world. Learn about the journey of improving public speaking skills and the importance of constant self-reflection.

Networking and Building Expertise: Find out how the networking skills developed in the pharmacy career can be leveraged to create a supportive community of entrepreneurs. You’ll also hear about the joy of collaborating, sharing knowledge, and growing together.

Time Management and Organisation: Understand the significance of impeccable time management skills in the hectic life of a pharmacist and how they are indispensable for an entrepreneur juggling multiple responsibilities.

In the second half of the episode, Yasir shares insights into his entrepreneurial journey, emphasising the importance of adaptability and flexibility. Learn how developing organisation and productivity skills became essential as he navigated the challenges of entrepreneurship. Discover the valuable role that apps played in his journey, from task management to blocking distractions.

We also explore the critical aspect of providing value in your entrepreneurial endeavors. Understand why creating a strong foundation of free value-sharing is essential before considering monetisation. You’ll gain insight into the power of confidence and promises to build trust and inspire investment in your offerings.

As Yasir and I conclude this episode, we leave you with a tantalising preview of Episode Three, where we delve into the mindset required to thrive in both pharmacy and entrepreneurship.
