Future Squared with Steve Glaveski

Looks like I got you! Nobody was going to open a boring old 'our year in review' episode, but James Brown, Bobby Byrd and a cheeky play on words and BAM! So as the title suggests it's been a huge year for the team here at Collective Campus. We didn't realise just how big this year has been and how much we've achieved until we sat down and reflected on it. We hope you find some time to do the same. I'm sure you'll be pleasantly surprised! I've summarised some of our highlights for 2016 which could definitely not have been possible without all of you, so from all of us here at Collective Campus and Future Squared, we'd just like to say THANK YOU. We can't wait to bring you more innovation inspiration in 2017.

Listen on iTunes: goo.gl/sMnEa0 Listen on Stitcher: www.stitcher.com/podcast/future I recently hosted a live Future Squared panel event where I had the chance to interview Brent Lehmann (GM at Willis Towers Watson, a lading global insurance broker and advisory company, Adrian Wrathall (motor Product Manager and CGU Insruance) and Rob Aktanarowicz (National Underwriter for Commercial and Heavy Motor at CGU Insurance). We explored many topics including the moral dilemma around self driving cars, legislation and infrastructure supporting the proliferation of self driving cars and my favourite question and the title of this episode, who pays when a self driving car kills? Note: Please excuse the audio quality of this episode. A number of factors worked against us here so we relied on the backup Facebook live video instead! Still, packed with great content so don't let that detract you!

Mulcahy is committed to helping talent leaders reimagine and rethink the convergence of the obvious and not so obvious trends reshaping our workplaces and workforces.

His career has spanned across various industries as a consultant, researcher, corporate strategist and company founder and CEO. He is a faculty member at Babson College and an executive coach at the Harvard Business School. Kevin lives in Boston, MA, USA.

Listen on iTunes: goo.gl/sMnEa0 Listen on Stitcher: www.stitcher.com/podcast/future In this episode of Fast Fix Friday I talk all about the power of 10X vision. Most of us chug along trying to grow revenues, our businesses, our personal brands incrementally and sustainably over time. There is absolutely nothing wrong with this approach., I myself am a big believer in persistence trumping talent 8 days a week, and aesop’s fable, ‘the tortoise and the hare’ favours the slowly but surely approach over the quick off the mark risk laden approach. But if you’re looking to create dramatic impact, thinking and acting incrementally might not be enough. Rather than looking for 10% growth next year, perhaps you can ask yourself how you plan on growing by 10x, that’s 1000%, next year. Or as Peter Thiel of Paypal and Palantir fame says, how can you achieve your 10 year plan in the next 6 months? This simple question prompts us ask questions of ourselves and our businesses that we normally wouldn’t ask. I asked myself this question just the other night and spent 2 hours on my couch, doodling and mindmapping away potential growth opportunities and came up with over 130 to begin with, which mind you could be further broken down into subideas. So, if you want to 10x your business next year, I talk through 11 things you might want to think about in this episode of Future Squared.

Listen on iTunes: goo.gl/sMnEa0 Listen on Stitcher: www.stitcher.com/podcast/future We recently hosted a small party with some of our friends here at Collective Campus in Melbourne and after about 4 glasses of Gray Goose I couldn’t help but do the rounds and ask people in attendance, most of whom are either building startups, are working with emerging tech or are navigating the tangled web of corporate innovation, what kinds of technologies get them most excited about 2017. This came about 4 or so glasses of Gray Gose into the evening so I slur my words or sound a little too excited, you’ll just have to forgive me.

Listen on iTunes: goo.gl/sMnEa0 Listen on Stitcher: www.stitcher.com/podcast/future Listeners of this show will know that one of the projects we spend some time on is Lemonade Stand, a children’s entrepreneurship program we’ve run across Australia and more recently in Singapore, designed to inspire kids with the entrpereneurial mindset in order to help them become more adaptable in a time where more than half of today’s jobs are set to be replaced in the next 10 to 15 years and today’s kids face iincreasingly uncertain futures. Just this week one of our 11 year old alums sent me an email and I just had to share it because it demonstrates what kids are capable of when we give them a bit of direction and a whole lot of inspiration. With barriers to entry for ANYONE wanting to start a business being as low as they are today, this email proves that no matter who you are, how old you are, what your personal circumstances, the only thing that stands between you and your dreams is attitude.

Listen on iTunes: goo.gl/sMnEa0 Listen on Stitcher: www.stitcher.com/podcast/future I recently returned from a business meets leisure trip to Singapore and Vietnam where I had the opportunity to learn a little more about the latter's history, in particular that pertaining to the Vietnam War, a war that the under-resourced North Vietnamese won against the might of the Americans and its Allies. Large organisations with the vast resources and figurative firepower at their disposal shouldn’t underestimate is what an environment of scarce resources, paired with an incredibly strong mindset can do. In this episode, I discuss the ingenuity of the North Vietnamese and the number one characteristic that separates successful entrepreneurs and innovators from the pack.

Ryan Blair is a serial entrepreneur and self-made millionaire who had nothing to lose and everything to gain. At just 21 years old, Blair founded his first company, 24/7 Tech, and by the age of 34, he has founded and sold numerous businesses for hundreds of millions of dollars.

In August 2011, Blair authored the New York Times Best Seller, "Nothing To Lose and Everything To Gain: How I Went From Gang Member To Multimillionaire Entrepreneur." Uncensored and raw in his account of growing up in the face of adversity, Blair effectively imparts lessons learned from obstacles faced and provides a roadmap for entrepreneurial success.

His biggest endeavor yet has been the overhaul of ViSalus Sciences, a company that manufactures weight loss and nutritional supplement products. Blair originally sold the company, but within just a few months, due to the recession, ViSalus was within one month from having to declare bankruptcy. As CEO, Blair went all-in, personally investing his last million dollars on a new business model that would later revolutionize the 118 billion dollar direct selling industry. In just 21 months, ViSalus went from 600,000 to 30 million dollars in monthly sales and is still climbing.

Blair regularly appears as a business expert on national television networks such as CNBC, MSNBC, and Fox. He has also been featured in major publications including Fortune Magazine, BusinessWeek, Forbes Magazine and the Wall Street Journal. Blair is also a contributor for the Financial Times and took a turn in movie production serving as Executive Producer of Man in the Glass: The Dale Brown Story, an award winning documentary about the legendary LSU Basketball Coach.

Blair's captivating story was also a bestseller in USA Today, The Wall Street Journal and Inc. Magazine, amongst others. Through a candid and unfiltered voice, Nothing to Lose speaks to everyone, from struggling youth to thriving businessmen alike, illustrating how to turn failures into successes.

 

Topics Covered:

- Ryan’s Journey (Gang members, a violent father, family in
jail and his first kiss dying in a drive-by, right through to starting and running multi-million dollar companies)

- Ryan’s Books - Rockbottom to Rockstar and Nothing to Lose, Everything to Gain.

- Unintended consequences of negative reenforcement
