There haven't been many times in my career when I have felt like a ‘human dartboard' but teaching one group of lawyers most certainly felt that way.
In a good way!
There is something fantastic about helping people who are engaged enough to actually test me.
They pretty much litigated every idea I shared with them as a form of sport. Not only was the workshop loaded with fun and banter, they helped me fine tune the quality of my ideas.
This is one of the many things covered in a recent podcast interview on the Investing for Life podcast with Douglas Isles from Platinum Asset Management.
We discuss a diverse range of topics including:
This is less serious than most professional podcasts, and one I hope you find enjoyable.

I have been very much enjoying the preview version of Richard Medcalf's draft book, Making Time for Strategy.
As always, Richard turns common ways of thinking on their head. He will then offer a super simple strategy that does what his tagline says it will do: multiplies my impact.
Let me share one example with you.
He says we should never score ourselves as a 7, which he aptly describes as a ‘meh' number.
It's safe yet meaningless. It's not terrible, yet it's not great either.
I mention this because I have been shocked at how many people joining my programs play it safe and score their communication as 7.
So, how do you score your communication without being a 7?
Here is a way to think about the scale from ouch to outstanding:
If your honest score is 6 or below, I invite you to explore Clarity First.
We can help you engage your decision makers in complex ideas.
Registrations close next week.
Kind regards,
Davina

Well, Bill certainly did not disappoint in this morning's interview!
Bill shared career insights that are hugely relevant to all of us, no matter where we are in our careers.
He gave me a new idea for addressing current challenge and judging by the chat messaging others found the same.
I encourage you to take the time to watch the recording below and to consider working with him further. There are three ways to do this:
#1 – Grab a copy of his new book Building a Winning Career, which launched today. He is offering the Kindle version for about $10 for the coming two weeks to make it affordable to everyone, as well as physical copies which Australians can order directly from him, or those overseas can access via online book stores.
#2 – Learn more from him in our two coming Clarity First sessions. The first will be a book discussion and the second a working session to help those present. Clarity First registration is open until 9 December to allow you to join early for the February program.
#3 – Receive a free copy of Bill's book if you are one of the first 10 people to join Clarity First this week.
