Candid moments behind the scenes. There are days when facing the camera feels like hitting a roadblock. The day of recording this podcast was one of those days. It felt like I couldn't see beyond the immediate moment and my words seemed stuck. The big picture, the vision, the goals, all seemed obscured. #humanmoment Moments like these are so similar to the significance of business coaching. Having a mentor or coach can provide invaluable guidance and perspective precisely when you feel stuck or overwhelmed. They help refocus on goals, and keep the vision clear, even during the most daunting times. So, just in case you find yourself in a similar situation with your business, remember the power of seeking support from a trusted coach or mentor. Nevertheless, here we are, recording another episode of "Inside the Industry with RTO Mentor." Any how this is a recording with Inside the Industry with RTO Mentor: Discussing Business Challenges of 2024 With Merinda Smith Listen in to this exclusive conversation! Invaluable insights and expert perspectives. #InsideTheIndustry #BusinessChallenges #2024Trends #RTOmentor

NEW EPISODE: A NEW CHAPTER I have the best job in the world. That is, it’s the best job for someone like me, who really likes talking to people and finding out what they are doing and thinking – but also as a bi-product finding out what they are really like. The reason I am saying this is because today’s episode was so much fun to make that it didn’t feel like a standard day at the office. I have had Warren Downey and Lee Anderson of London-headquartered intermediary Specialist Risk Group (SRG) on the show before and really enjoyed their company, good humour and the openness and ease with which could discuss their strategy and business philosophy, but the interview you are about to hear is exceptional. This is because rarely do I interview two senior executives who finish each other’s sentences so regularly and enjoy each other’s company so much. The trigger for our podcast was a change of investors that has brought Blue- Chip players Warburg Pincus and Temasek into the fold at a reported valuation of over £1 billion, so perhaps that is why the conversation was so animated. Whatever the reason, what follows is a very enjoyable romp outlining the strategy and culture of an incredibly successful broking duo. What is SRG going to do with its new investment? The answers are all in here. And that’s because of the two people in the room with me. A minute ago I said I have the best job in the world for me – and it seems obvious to me that these two would say exactly the same about their jobs.

Unlocking Your Inner Creative: Insights with Rich Kirkpatrick on the Stuck In My Mind Podcast 🎙️ Excited to share some transformative insights from our latest episode of the "Stuck In My Mind Podcast," where I had the pleasure of interviewing the brilliant Rich Kirkpatrick! Our conversation was rich with wisdom on creativity, collaboration, and personal growth. 🚀 Key Takeaways for Creative Minds and Leaders: Harnessing Frustration for Creation : Rich emphasized how frustration can be a powerful catalyst for creativity, driving us to build rather than break. This perspective can revolutionize how we view our challenges, allowing us to turn obstacles into opportunities. Curiosity as a Catalyst : Practicing curiosity is critical in the creative process. Rich likens creativity to making a dish from a pantry during a storm, where curiosity helps us discover and utilize the unnoticed elements around us, fostering innovative solutions. Collaboration Over Solitude : The myth of the solitary genius was dispelled in favor of the collaborative approach. Drawing on examples like Lady Gaga and Tony Bennett, Rich highlighted how teamwork accelerates project timelines and enhances output by leveraging individual strengths. For more insights, tune in to the full episode on your favorite podcast platform and dive into Rich's book, "Mind Blown: Unlock Your Creative Genius by Bridging Science and Magic," available on Amazon, Audible, Spotify, and public libraries. 🌟 #podcast #creativity #leadership #innovation #collaboration #StuckInMyMindPodcast
