I had the pleasure of being interviewed on Jo Dodds’ podcast, The Power to Live More. This show is primary aimed towards productivity and effeciency, however, I was able to discuss core leadership components as well. During the show I discussed the following topics:
- My workstations and how I manage to work at eight different locations
- The driving factors that inspires me to do what I do
- How I prioritizes my tasks and things to do
- Why I doesn’t need cutting-edge technology to get the job done
- Who helps me get things done
- How I empowers my team
- Why lunchtime is my favourite time of the day
- Why I believe in quality over quantity
- Resources I use for personal development
- How compartmentalising helps me when things don’t go right
- How I uses my alone time in the evening to get over the day’s challenges
