Episode #252: Floptus Sport and the Five Whys
Many have credited Optus for taking ownership with the advertisements it took out on page two of newspaper across Australia, admitting its “monumental stuff up” and announcing that it would be refunding Floptus, er, Optus Sport subscribers and giving them an additional six weeks of free access to the service after the World Cup comes to a close in mid-July. But was this a case of extreme ownership or of simply being backed into a corner? --- Join Steve's mailing list at futuresquared.xyz/subscribe Listen on iTunes @ goo.gl/sMnEa0 Listen on Spotify @ spoti.fi/2G2QsxV Listen on Stitcher @ www.stitcher.com/podcast/future Listen on Google Play @ bit.ly/FSGoog If you've got any questions on this podcast feel free to send an email to steve@collectivecamp.us or tweet me on Twitter @steveglaveski or @future_squared Follow me on Instagram: @thesteveglaveski Like us?

Episode #249: Strong Opinions, Loosely Held...and the Intellectual Dark Web.
I cringe when I hear of school debates that advise students to argue a position even if the factual information they use isn’t 100% accurate, so long as it serves their position. School debates tend to be based students never changing their mind, and sadly, this misguided thinking has graduated and is pervasive in today’s corporate and political arenas, where they often have devastating effect on the common good. This week I explore the notion of 'strong opinions, loosely held' and why it is one of the most profound philosophies you can take with you in business and life. --- Join the conversation on Facebook: www.facebook.com/groups/futuresquared/ where you can discuss episodes, request guests, propose questions for forthcoming guests and access exclusive content and special offers!

Episode #244: Is entrepreneurship for you and, what kind of entrepreneurship?
It seems that everybody wants to build the next UBER, the next unicorn, but do you need to? Would you not be happy generating a six-figure income doing what you love and having freedom over your decisions, not having to report to a boss who is simply in that role due to political maneuvering or length of tenure? You’ve got to be clear on defining what kind of business you want to build. For the purposes of this book, you either want to build: A multi-hundred million dollar global company in search of unicorn status A company with several million dollars in revenues with global or local reach A lifestyle business that earns you a six-figure income --- If you’d like to receive a weekly email from me, complete with reflections, books I’ve been reading, words of wisdom and access to blogs, ebooks and more that I’m publishing on a regular basis, just head over to www.futuresquared.xyz/subscribe and you’ll get the very next one.
