This episode closes out this month's focus on "Story" and its role in our lives. I talk about how we use stories to define who we are and what we do. And while stories have limitless potential, they can also constrain us.
All in Personal Development
In this episode, I continue the exploration of the idea of Story in our lives, again diving into Donald Miller's phenomenal book, A Million Miles In A Thousand Years.
I pick up 3 passages from the book that speak to the idea of character, sacrifice and what stories we should aspire to leave behind when we're gone. These ideas resonated strongly with me and, I hope, they will with you, too.
In this episode, I continue this month's conversation on Story and it's role in our lives. I start with a story about my first business trip and what I learnt during a breakfast discussion then.
Welcome to the relaunch of the Omerisms podcast - back after a bit of a hiatus!
I've revamped the style of the podcast and will be speaking about key themes I've discussed over the last three and a half years on my blog. I'll cover older posts in audio form and also add additional commentary where appropriate.
This month's podcast focuses on the topic of high performers and interestingly, whether they ever have an expiry date. Is there ever a time to let them go?
This topic was inspired by the debate that has raged on over the last few months around Arsenal Football Club, one of the top football (soccer) teams in England. Fans of the club, the media and (some suggest) the board, have all debated whether it was time for Arsene Wenger, the most successful manager in the club's history, to go.
Welcome back to Part 2 of the Omerisms Podcast and my interview with Brian Slobodow.
In this episode, Brian and I continue our conversation around his experiences in the management consulting industry and where it is headed. We then go into his corporate career and the lessons learned there, and wrap up the discussion with a look into his Private Equity career and what it takes to make that shift successfully.
Welcome to Episode 3 of the Omerisms podcast, where I discuss, explore and debate interesting business, career and personal development topics.
This month's podcast is a bit different from the first two, where I conducted interviews. Today's podcast features my exploration of two topics that came up over the last month in various forums and discussions I've been involved in.
