Business Owners & Entrepreneurs Podcast With Peter Boolkah | Business Coach | The Transition Guy®

Agility in business is more essential now, during the pandemic, than it has ever been. Most businesses need to reinvent themselves as agile start-ups simply because so much has changed in a short space of time. My guest today, Simon Severino is the CEO of Strategy Sprints. Having run a business for 17 years, Simon has created a system to help make it easier for you to run your business. He's created a blueprint (which also includes reporting systems and 274 templates) for how to run an agile business that is also resilient, regardless of what's going on in the world. In our conversation, Simon and I discuss the challenges of running a business and how to overcome them. The truth is, running a business is hard. You might have one week you feel like you’re moving forward, followed by two weeks of what feels like moving backward. There’s always something changing, so many moving parts, and that’s why it’s absolutely necessary to have agility in business.  What does it mean to be agile? Is it to be the

In a world where we constantly experience change, learning how to adapt to a new way of thinking is essential. In today’s video, Francis Cholle discusses his bestselling book “Squircle.” What is a Squircle? According to Francis, Squircle is the result of a “square and a circle coming together.”But what does that mean? Circle represents our ability to thrive in chaos, while square represents our logical state. Squircle is where your logical mind and instinctual attitudes come together to enable you to develop a new skill set. Basically, in today’s world, every day is a move from predictability to uncertainty. Everything needs to be reinvented at any given moment because a newer kind of decision-making logic is necessary in order to cope with the change. The reality for the business world is that the pandemic has placed us in the biggest case of unpredictability that we’ve ever seen. Fortunately, a lot of entrepreneurs have managed to adapt in many ways. Knowing how to adapt as you go is critical for survival.

Writing a bestseller can seem almost impossible to any aspiring author, but can you write a bestselling book without the stress and time-consuming elements of the publishing process? The answer is yes. Vikrant Shaurya, the CEO and founder of bestsellingbook.com, wrote his first book when he was 19 years old. He made $27. That’s how he began to understand how the publishing world works. He realized that business owners, thought leaders, coaches, and consultants know that they want to write a book to share their ideas. They have amazing ideas and stories to share, but they lack time to write books about them. That was the gap. He saw it, and he went for it. But why should you write a book? As a thought leader in your field, publishing a bestselling book increases your credibility and sets you up in the public eye as an authority on the topic. You want to set yourself apart from the crowd and establish your authority. A bestselling book can help you generate leads, secure speaking engagements, and basically allo

With the new Clubhouse app getting a lot of hype in the media lately, I have decided to do a Clubhouse review to give you my perspective of this new and intriguing social media platform.This is a relatively new platform that has only been out since May. Since it grabbed my attention, I decided to give it a try. So, what are my thoughts? I have to say that I like the idea of Clubhouse. This is a platform that centres around drop-in audio chats. Essentially, it is like having a bunch of live podcasts that you can choose from. However, a major difference between current podcasting and the Clubhouse app is that in these conversations, you as the listener have the ability to participate. When a speaker is finished, you can ask a question.Now, my Clubhouse review wouldn’t be complete without mentioning the downsides that I noticed. One thing that I noticed was that the rooms sometimes had 2000 people listening. When you have rooms that big, it becomes very difficult to participate. I also noticed some people spendi

What are some of the investment opportunities that are out there? Venture capitalists have been making good use of their revenue in order to invest in industries that are starting to get more popular.A lot of investment opportunities have shown themselves for a variety of companies and industries. And these organizations exhibit a lot of potential for growth in the future.There are so many new ideas that have changed the marketplace. And together with them, new payment systems have been helping with their growth.Before technology made it easy to create communities or start social networks, fewer venture capitalists were aiming for these sectors. But as more people started using things like social media and online education, investment opportunities began to show themselves. And venture capitalists have jumped on the chance to invest in startups that were organized around those areas.--------------------CONNECT WITH PETER BOOLKAH:--------------------http://www.Boolkah.comhttps://www.facebook.com/Boolkahhttps:/

Today I'd like to share my takeaways and lessons from Bill Gates derived from the past year. Despite everything that's happened, have you been feeling gratitude for what humanity has accomplished?Everyone is so busy with making a profit and being individually successful that we have a tendency to forget our essence as human beings.We forget that with unity and working together, we can accomplish so much!Despite being faced with something that threatened our survival, one thing we can be proud of is how we've been pulling through so far.And with all the advancements we've made in the previous year alone in terms of medicine, it begs the question, what other goals can we accomplish by working together?--------------------CONNECT WITH PETER BOOLKAH:--------------------http://www.Boolkah.comhttps://www.facebook.com/Boolkahhttps://www.instagram.com/pboolkah/https://www.linkedin.com/in/boolkahhttps://twitter.com/boolkah--------------------ABOUT PETER BOOLKAH--------------------Peter Boolkah (AKA

Being a leader means setting a good example for others to follow. On the other hand, bad leadership can have a corrosive influence on an organization. Take Donald Trump, for example.Every outgoing president has certain privileges when it comes to granting pardons; however, Trump’s use of pardons can only lead one to question his character.Paul Manafort was convicted for meddling in the 2016 elections; Roger Stone was convicted for lying to Congress about Hilary Clinton's leaked emails; Charles Kushner was convicted and sentenced to two years in prison for tax evasion.Then there's the Blackwater contractors who were involved in the 2007 Fallujah massacre, and Michael Flynn, who was convicted for election tampering.It is simply bad leadership to give these convicted individuals pardons. But it’s not just Donald Trump who engages in nepotism, nor does it only take place in the political sphere. Being a leader in business carries its own responsibilities, it’s privileges, and pitfalls. For example, when
