Get Things Done, Stop Wasting Time10 Mar 202201:11:10

My today’s guest is Sam Bennett. In our conversation, we are going to discuss why at least 90% of work meetings are a complete waste of time and energy.

Now, if you wonder how that plays into your productivity, we will also see some fundamental misconceptions when we think and talk, probably too much about the term productivity. Sam is a great person to talk to about those topics as she has written two bestselling books on how to get things done and how little but constant changes can have a huge impact on your life.

Those openings are not only open on your job site. They are also reflecting the gaps of knowledge present in your organization.

Entrepreneurial Freedom03 Feb 202200:23:52

Today we are going to get a little bit more philosophical but without losing the focus to provide you with actionable ideas and content. Our topic ….freedom. To be more specific entrepreneurial freedom. Why is it that so many of us start an entrepreneurial journey and after some time has passed we find ourselves trapped? Trapped by the circumstances, the growth of the company, and the surrounding environment. Let’s be blunt and recognize first, we are most probably still running in a golden hamster wheel. How we can break out of these vicious cycles and gain back the freedom we were looking for in the first place? 

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ 

💡 QUESTIONS AND VIEWS HIGHLIGHTED IN THIS EPISODE:

  • What does the term mean?
  • Be aware of the cost of the journey
  • Re-evaluate & disrupt yourself

Mental Health First AID12 Jan 202200:50:40

Today I’m joined by Dr. Ralf Friedrich. Ralf is an expert when it comes to coaching virtual teams and he is also a Mental health first aid instructor. As every organization above a certain headcount has a dedicated first aid responder for accidents at the workspace, Ralf is convinced and in my view righteously convinced that we not only need first aid responders for physical accidents but also for mental health issues. But this is still going to be a long way, as in most organizations mental health issues are blacked out whenever possible and hidden on the individual level out of fear that a mental health issue could affect the career or reputation.

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ 

💡 QUESTIONS AND VIEWS HIGHLIGHTED IN THIS EPISODE:

  • When to look out for support and assistance
  • Hiding and stigmatization are really bad
  • Practical steps to raise awareness
  • Barriers and difficulties working on mental health and virtual team settings
