infinite pie thinking

Hi, I'm Al Fawcett and this is infinite pie thinking.

Today you will hear a conversation that I had recently with Jon Dutton, The Chief Executive for the Rugby League World Cup 2021. 

Jon shares the challenges and opportunities of leading an event like this, and how it is much more than just the games played on the field. We discuss the importance of setting big goals and how this tournament plans to support communities and have a wider impact. 

We also talk about the importance of building and developing a team, and the benefit of surrounding yourself with great people. Great people who want to make a difference and are aligned to the visions and values required to set out to deliver "The Biggest and Best Ever Rugby League World Cup".  

I also want to say thanks to one of my previous guests, Chris Brindley MBE, who made the introduction.

As always, if you enjoyed and received value from this, then my one ask is for you to share it with someone you feel may also benefit from it.  Sharing, subscribing, rating and reviewing is how the show will grow and develop and we can provide you with more great stories and tips on how to "Do stuff that matters, with people who count, in places that inspire!".

Hi, I’m Al Fawcett and this is infinite pie thinking.

Today, I am speaking with Irwin Kula - Rabbi, Author, Educator, TV Host, Consultant and Public Speaker.  Irwin is also the co founder of the Tribeca disruptive innovation awards and has been called a Disruptive Spiritual Innovator, and by the end of this conversation I am sure you will understand why.

We discuss leadership, culture, community and how to continue to get little bit better everyday and make sure you check out Irwin’s 4 daily habits at the end that may help you with this.

Irwin has a remarkable way of viewing the the world and always challenges my thinking, ensuring I always take something away from our conversations, and I am sure that you will too. Take a listen and let me know what you think.

Hi, I’m Al Fawcett and this is infinite pie thinking.  

Today I am speaking with Chris Brindley MBE and I warn you now this one may require a notepad and pen. 

Chris shares the stories and insights from his experience and believe me there is a lot to share. Just a quick look at his CV shows this. Chris has worked for Metro Bank as Managing Director, held Sales and Marketing Director roles in Nat West and British Gas.  He has been voted - Britains Best Boss; Most Outstanding Workplace; Sales and Marketing Director of the Year; and UK Non Executive Director of the Year by Institute of Directors 

Chris is currently the Chair of Rugby League World Cup 2021 Board. He also works to deliver sport and physical activity to the population of the North West and as a result in 2018 was awarded MBE for service to sport. 

In this conversation we discuss the key elements to  

• building teams 
• coaching and developing people 
• the role of leaders 
• goals and target setting 
• creating the right environment for success 
• the need to constantly review the rule book
