This one was a really, REALLY hard subject to record!
As we've looked at before, building a brighter future will mean we need to work with people who aren't like us. Maybe even they've harmed us in some way, or we them.
Building a brighter future is going to need us all to build some bridges.
In this episode I talk about:
- Why we need to forgive
- Why forgiveness is strength, not weakness
- Why it's rarely a one time thing
- When we need to forgive ourselves
A lot of this is based on my own personal experiences and experiments that I share in the episode.
I hope you enjoy it and do let me know your thoughts!

To build a brighter future will require lots of us working together. Many different people, from varied backgrounds and with diverse views.
For that to be successful, we're going to have to learn to understand other people and to be respectful of our differences.
In this episode I talk about:
- Why we need to be respectful
- How to be respectful of others' views
- When it's OK not to be respectful
A lot of this is based on my own personal experiences and experiments that I share in the episode.

- The difference between joy and happiness
- How happiness fades (quickly) over time

As I said in the last episode, we need to keep learning, and there's lots of information out there to help us. BUT this information isn't all the same quality and so we'll have to be very selective about what we take on board. We all need to learn to think more critically.
In this episode I talk about:
- Why all information isn't equal
- How to consider information critically
- The need to hear both sides of a story
- Should we really listen to everyone?
- How information is like food for the mind
A lot of this is based on my own personal experiences and experiments that I share in the episode.

In this episode I'm exploring Idea 3 from my Manifesto for a Brighter Future - Keep learning.
No one has all of the answers we need. No one. The best leaders are all lifelong learners - constantly seeking out new knowledge in their areas of interest and expertise.
In this episode I talk about:
- The reasons that we need to keep learning
- Great sources of information
- The need to relearn when the world changes
- Why you need to pass on your knowledge
A lot of this is based on my own personal experiences and experiments that I share in the episode.
I hope you enjoy it and do let me know your thoughts!

In this episode I'm exploring Idea 2 from my Manifesto for a Brighter Future - Stay Healthy.

Last week I introduced the ten ideas that make up my Manifesto for a Brighter Future. In this episode I'm exploring Idea 1: Be Yourself.
If we're going to build a brighter future for us all, it's going to take all of us working together.
To do this effectively then it's vital that we each understand our own unique skills, gifts and abilities (our "superpowers") and how we can use these to help everyone else.
In this episode I talk about:
- Why we need to understand our gifts
- Why most of us have never thought about this
- What we can do to make a start (three simple tips)
I mention the 16 Personalities test and it can be found here:

When I began working on this project, I started to create what I'm calling my "Manifesto for a Brighter Future".
It's a simple guide, a set of ten ideas, that will help us all to work towards the brighter future that we want to create.
The ten ideas are:
- Be yourself
- Stay healthy
- Keep learning
- Think critically
- Be kind
- Spread joy
- Be respectful
- Forgive easily
- Think globally
- Take action
In this episode, I outline what I mean by each of these points. I'll expand on each of them in future episodes and even plan to write it up in the form of a short book too (very much a work in progress!)
I'll try and open a Q&A here on the podcast so that you can let me know what you think. Please be kind and constructive!
Thanks and I hope you enjoy the episode!

It's a first for the podcast this week as I did my first interview!
For many of us, one of the most important things we have to think about for the future are our careers. Working with a sense of purpose, making the most of our skills and abilities, will be essential if we're to build a brighter future for us all.
Mark Crossfield is a career coach who I've known for some time. He helps people who are feeling stuck to make the shift to career paths that better fit their abilities and values.
In this fascinating interview, Mark talks about:
- The "invisible script" that many of us follow blindly into careers that may not suit us
- Mark's "Manhattan Moment" when he realised he had to make a serious change
- How to understand what the right career might be for you
- Making small experiments to try different career directions
- The importance of continuous learning
- The need to develop flexibility and resilience
- How to build your personal brand and network
I really enjoyed doing this interview as Mark really knows his stuff!
The quote Mark referenced from Bono is: " You can disagree on everything but still work together on one thing... if that one thing is important enough."
There's a cameo contribution from Autumn, one of my two dogs towards the end too...
Mark's "Books for a Brighter Future":
- Factfulness by Hans Rosling
- Progress by Johan Norberg
His "Song for a Brighter Future":
- Beautiful Day by U2

If we want to build a brighter future for us all, we'll need great leaders to help us get there. To show us a vision and guide the way to realising it.
But we don't see many of the right kind of leaders in the world today!
In this episode, I'll cover:
- Why we need great leaders
- What great leadership looks like
- The tell-tale signs of a weak leader
- How we can each lead better, wherever we are

In an age of global problems, we cannot solve them by withdrawing into smaller and smaller groups. But there's a powerful, evolutionary reason why humans want to do this.

- The tribes we belong to now
- How we can work beyond our borders
As ever, I hope you find it helpful and informative.

If you're the kind of person who thinks about the future, then this is definitely the podcast for you!
We'll be exploring the big future trends and challenges that face us all, but also looking at what we can each do about them.
The future can be big and scary, but I believe that if we learn to understand what's coming and all do what we can to address those issues, then the future's bright!

Everyone is struggling these days to find and retain the best, most talented people. More than any time I can remember, it’s a job-seekers market as fewer qualified people are available to fill the roles which organisations like yours have vacant.
Also it’s an attractive time for top talent to look around for new opportunities.
So how do you keep your best people and hold onto the ones you have? What can you do that many of your competitors are not?
In this episode I’ll explain more.

“Are you a fish or a monkey?”
Silly question? Well, yes but it illustrates a good point!
The episode is based on this quote:
“Everyone is born a genius, but if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid.”
If we judge ourselves by our ability at things we’re not strong at, we’ll feel like a failure. But when we understand what our unique skills and abilities are, then that’s the key to:
- Finding our flow
- Building great teams
- Developing thriving and successful businesses
I hope this episode and the thoughts explained in it help you to think about all of these things.

“What do you do?”
It’s a question we get asked a lot, isn’t it? Yet how you explain this can have a huge impact on your sales prospects. Get it wrong and you’ll appear too general - your potential client will not have a clear understanding of how you can help them!
In this episode, I explain some constructive ways to be much better at engaging people when they ask this question.

There’s a lot of encouragement online for entrepreneurs and organisational leaders to be “hustling” all the time. To work 18 hours a day, 7 days a week in order to succeed in the way they hope to.
This is self-destructive behavior. We all have days when our energy is low. We all have days when we need to rest.
In this episode, I explain some strategies for a happier and healthier working life.

When times are tough it’s tempting to look back and yearn for things we used to have. But that’s not a constructive way to live life at all!
Does that mean we shouldn’t ever think about the past? Of course not! There are valuable ways that reflecting on what’s gone before can help us in our lives and our work.
In this episode, I explain how.

Businesses and other teams are made up of individuals. If we want our teams to succeed, it’s vital that we tap into the talents of every individual member.
It’s also essential for individual engagement that we work out what our skills and abilities really are, the passions that drive us, and then apply these together in the direction of the business vision.

Sometimes over the course of a career, we learn an awful lot more than we give ourselves credit for.
It’s easy to forget (or not realise) that sometimes non-profit or charitable organisations don’t have the same depth of skills or experience that we take for granted in business.
But that’s exactly where we can help them.
So what might that mean for your business?
Is there a cause close to your heart that would benefit from your experience?

In many ways, charitable or not for profit organisations are very different from commercial businesses. But there are similarities too and some excellent lessons that we as business owners can learn.
One of the most important is their (usually) very strong sense of mission and purpose.
So what might that mean for your business?

Good books are one of the best sources of information and inspiration we can have. That’s why I am (and always have been) an avid reader.
In this episode, I’m doing a short book review of one of my all-time favorites: Purple Cow by Seth Godin. It’s a tremendously thought-provoking book, which can help us think in a new and innovative way about the clients we serve and the services we provide.
Make your business stand out by being a Purple Cow!

A lot of people believe that sales are a quick process. But it isn't. You will require plenty of time to create a suitable beneficial relationship between you and the clients. Thereupon, based on that relationship, you can consider sales development.
