Reset, The Podcast

Today Suki  (Founder & CEO Let’s Reset) talks to Julian Douglas, or Dougie as he is known by many. Newish President of the IPA (Institute of Practitioners in Advertising) and International CEO & Vice Chairman of communications agency VCCP. As well as chatting about some of the challenges the industry faces, Dougie describes very passionately why at this discontinuous moment,  it is the very time to accelerate 10 x faster. He’s a man who believes that he has a superpower, borne not from the skill he has, but the background he came from. He tells us why he feels that his Irish Mum, Jamaican Dad and Manchester upbringing gave him a point of difference in life. Dougie’s own journey has been full of resets. And it’s in those resets that he’s learned his biggest lessons. How important wellbeing is, what it takes to drive real change and why everyone should have a side hustle. In their conversations it’s easy to see why Dougie, is a fantastic Ambassador for the industry. But, what does his daughter think of him? Well, before they started the Podcast she was very clear. He’s nice, kind, funny and tall!  He certainly is, alongside inspiring and very passionate about people, creativity and a better industry for all.

Today Suki (Founder & CEO Let’s Reset  talks to one of the UK’s most senior marketing leaders, Margaret Jobling, CMO, NatWest Group.  Marg is the ultimate polymath. With a PhD in Laser Chemistry and a career in marketing, she has a brilliant mix of magic and logic. Beyond that, she’s also someone with a reputation for creating cultures where kindness, creativity and performance come to the fore. Suki and Marg talk about that cultural focus and her two big reset moments in life, where she discovered the importance of juggling and why she thinks self-limiting beliefs get in the way for women,  in particular. Oh, and they talk about trousers. Marg’s view is that we all step into our trousers one leg at a time which signals her belief that leaders are never all seeing and all doing. They are just like everyone else but with a bit more experience and sometimes grey hair!

Today Suki (Founder & CEO Let’s Reset) chats to Phil Wild, the purpose driven CEO of James Cropper plc. They spend time talking about why being purpose driven is important and the many things Phil’s doing in his organisation to embed vision, purpose and values. An Engineer by trade, Phil tells us why having a technical background has helped him become a better CEO and how that helps him relate to people in the factories that he runs. Perhaps most interestingly, their conversation turns to some of the darker moments in his career when he felt like a hamster on a hamster wheel, working 14 + hours a day. And what did that teach him? Well, that pleasure from being successful at work is a very long way away from being truly happy. Enjoy listening to the thoughts of an authentic leader who is doing so much to get his own life and work in perfect harmony.

What an incredible few months it has been for sport, both on and off the field of play. The Olympics and now the ParaOlympics are the focus of the conversation between  Alex Partridge, a three time Olympic rower and now Wellbeing Ambassador for Wagestream and Suki Thompson Founder/CEO Let’s Reset. You can hear first-hand what it takes to be a sporting champion and how Alex trained to be an elite athlete. They discuss  how sport and wellbeing are now centre stage and the impact that Simone Biles had speaking out about her own mental health. But, in their conversation, they touch on things that go way beyond sport. Alex’s journey from feeling that rowing was just something he did, to understanding its true value is utterly fascinating. Along the way, he learnt the value of understanding his own worth and importantly, why that mattered to others. And the most important lesson that he picked up along the way? Inspire and be inspired. This is a podcast  for anyone who loves life, sport and everything in between.
