Success iD

On today's Success Briefing we look at the importance of Environment Design on your ability to lead yourself and others successfully. This is a really important topic at the moment when so many of us are forced to work from home as we embrace the challenges of the 'new normal.' Success stories, resources and of course, your daily coaching session too. Don't forget to link with us on Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn and Facebook to make sure you access all the support we are providing.

This very first of the daily Success Briefings positions how this new podcast format can help you lead yourself and others as successfully as possible. We explain how these daily episodes can help you and importantly, how you can contribute to the community so we can all survive in these challenging times. This includes your own coaching around the topic of the day.

On this week's episode, I'm delighted to be joined by Matthew Dicks TedX Speaker, teacher and author of many books including the wonderful Storyworthy: Engage, Teach, Persuade and change your life through the power of storytelling.

Matthew is also the co-host with his wife Elysha, of their own podcast (which I highly recommend) called Speak Up - we'll link to it in the show notes.

In summary, I can't think of anyone better placed than Matthew Dicks, to help me explore Storytelling as Success on this week's Success iD podcast.

On this week's episode, I'm delighted to be joined by Rich Alton the Director of emerging research at the Clayton Christensen Institute. Harvard Business School Professor Christensen, who sadly passed away only last week, is recognised as one of the world's leading thinkers in terms of disruption and the Institute that bears his name is dedicated to improving the world through disruptive innovation.

I personally love the idea of the 'Jobs to Be Done' Theory. This page on CCI's website gives a nice overview of what it means and there's also a book out on the topic Competing Against Luck, authored by Dr. Christensen and several of his colleagues.

Wow! What brilliant episodes we were lucky enough to review and re-engineer this month. Work of John Evans, John Higgins and Darren Smallridge led us into some really interesting topic areas with lots of new thoughts prompted by the merging and the overlaps between them all: Speaking up; Internal Arts and Presentation skills.
