Late payers, early warnings

Saison 1 · Épisode 2

mercredi 15 avril 2026 • Durée 22:44

Most businesses do not struggle with debt because they lack systems, they struggle because they avoid conversations.

In this episode, we explore the human side of getting paid, the decisions, habits, and moments that quietly shape whether work turns into cash or into stress.

Through a practical and honest conversation with Zakia Khalid, a specialist in debt recovery, you will hear what really sits behind late payments, why so many businesses hesitate to act, and how that hesitation compounds over time.

You will learn how to spot early warning signs before a client becomes a problem, how to set expectations that protect both the relationship and the outcome, and how to approach payment conversations with clarity rather than discomfort.

The episode also unpacks the most common mistakes businesses make when managing debt internally, offering simple, practical shifts that can be applied immediately.

Thank you for joining us today.

My name is Anthony, founder of Donovan Training Associates. I help individual contributors transition into people leadership roles, and I support business owners to start and build their businesses.

In this episode I had the pleasure of sitting down with Matt Brown, Founder and CEO of n-fuze.

Based in Kent, UK, Matt started n-fuze from his parent's kitchen and has built the business into a highly successful agency that thinks big and creates bigger. They have just celebrated their twentieth birthday and have exciting plans for the future.

Matt candidly talks us through his leadership journey, the challenge of letting go and trusting in others. He also shares a fascinating insight into how he has incorporated AI in the most human of ways.

From supplier to trusted partner

jeudi 28 mai 2026 • Durée 26:24

In this episode of Lead with Curiosity, I was joined from Chicago by Aaron Schavey, a key account manager from Servomex.

I was keen to explore Aaron's thoughts on what really builds trust in business relationships. We discussed the difference between selling a product or solution and becoming a genuine partner, why value always outlasts price, and how curiosity, empathy, and listening shape long term success.

If you’ve ever wondered how great relationships are built, maintained, and strengthened through trust rather than transactions, this conversation will leave you thinking differently about leadership, sales, and human connection.

From idea to momentum: Building a podcast business

Saison 1 · Épisode 5

jeudi 21 mai 2026 • Durée 22:01

In this episode, I sat down with Hugo Austin, one of the founders of The Pod Collective to explore what really happens behind the scenes when an idea turns into a growing business.

It was an opportunity to turn the tables and learn more about what goes into creating a podcast business in a fast growing and ever competitive market.

From the uncertainty of starting out, to scaling quickly without losing quality, this conversation unpacks the practical realities of entrepreneurship, leadership, and building something sustainable.

Hugo shares a fascinating insight into the mindset shifts that he belives stops people taking action, the mistakes that taught him and his business partner Jack Hales, the biggest lessons, and why growth only works when the foundations are strong enough to support it.

The conversation also explores franchising, how partnerships work and the importance of staying curious while building a business in real time.

Whether you’re sitting on an idea or leading a growing team, this episode offers honest practical thinking and reassurance that no business journey is ever as polished as it looks from the outside.

Building a culture that actually works

jeudi 14 mai 2026 • Durée 21:37

Stepping into leadership rarely feels like a clean promotion. It can feel uncertain, uncomfortable, and at times, undeserved.

In this episode of Lead with Curiosity, I sat down with Louise Wane, Managing Director of Rainbow Dust, to explore the real journey behind moving from doing the work to leading others.

From early careers in sales and marketing to stepping into the role of Managing Director, this conversation brings an honest look at imposter syndrome, shifting identity, and the moments that quietly shape leadership.

We move beyond theory and into lived experience. What changes when you are no longer responsible for results alone, but for people, culture, and direction? What behaviours actually build trust in a team, especially during periods of growth and uncertainty, such as acquisitions?

You will hear practical reflections on building culture, leading creative and commercially driven teams, and developing the habits that help new managers grow into confident leaders.

This is not about having all the answers. It is about learning to ask better questions, noticing what matters, and leading with intention when it matters most.

The shift from doing to leading

Saison 1 · Épisode 2

jeudi 30 avril 2026 • Durée 23:10

In this episode, I sat down with Colin Butcher, Creative Partnerships Director at n-fuze.

We explored the transition from being a creative expert to becoming a confident leader through the lived experience of someone who has grown within one Organisation.

It is a conversation about identity as much as it is about skill, about what changes when success is no longer defined by what you produce, but by what others achieve around you.

You will hear honest reflections on the challenge of letting go of the work you love, the discomfort of stepping into conversations that feel outside your expertise, and the subtle shift from focusing on output to building trust, relationships, and influence.

For new and experienced managers alike, this episode offers practical habits, grounded insights, and a reminder that the hardest promotion is not technical, it is personal, the move from doing the work to enabling others to do it well.

Your financial future

jeudi 9 juillet 2026 • Durée 30:05

In this episode of Lead with Curiosity, I sat down with Daniel Barnes, Chartered Financial Planner and a Director at Barnes Wealth Management, to explore why financial planning is about far more than building wealth.

From debunking common myths about who financial advice is really for, to discussing retirement, inheritance, and protecting your future, our conversation offers practical guidance for professionals, business owners, and families alike.

We also reflect on the experience of taking over a family business, the leadership lessons passed from one generation to the next, and the small financial habits that can make a lasting difference.

Whether you're just starting your career or planning for the future, this episode will leave you with practical insights and plenty to think about.
