Listen Later

Join Felix in this one-off solo episode as he takes us through his experience at the exclusive invite-only retreat to Necker Island hosted by Sir Richard Branson in May 2024.

Learn what makes Richard Branson such a successful and special entrepreneur, and the key things Felix wants to implement after spending 4 days with one of the world's most successful and high-profile entrepreneurs ever.

Episode highlights include:

  • Spirit of "Everything is Possible" - Felix's personal record swim to Mosquito Island
  • Importance of creating a company culture of connection, belonging and being heard
  • "Don't work in the company, work outside the company". Being in a role that plays on your strengths as a leader, not in the day-to-day operations
  • What to expect on Necker Island - animals, colourful flowers, easy luxury and FUN
  • Importance of small talk & remembering staff and patients' personal details
  • "Do what you think is the right thing". Richard's deep commitment to making the world a better place
  • Nurturing your employees and fast decision-making via the culture of the "cheeky start-up"
  • How each day at the retreat was structured
  • Letters from influential global shakers casually hung up in the kitchen
  • "Listen, don't talk". Richard's secret weapon - his notebook where he writes all his ideas that came from listening to people.
  • Richard's Branding Genius. Naming his planes, creating an extraordinary personal experience when using his services
  • "Small things are big things." Details count. (eg. Virgin Cruises sell packs of 3 socks in case one goes missing in the laundry... or that all the tables are built so you can dance on them)
  • Virgin's Recruitment Application Process: The 3-minute video and the importance of putting candidates in every-day situations to see their real side
  • The importance of asking the right questions
  • Richard's message for every human
