Episode #58: Fast Fix Friday on Disrupting Yourself
In this episode of Fast Fix Friday, I talk why you should disrupt yourself. I had the pleasure of interviewing Whitney Johnson, author of Disrupt Yourself, and formerly co-founder of Rose Park Advisors alongside Clayton Christensen, way back when in episode #13 of Future Squared. She told the story of her own personal reinvention from secretary on Wall Street to high ranking equities analyst to co-founder of a boutique investment firm which invested in and led the $8 million seed round for Korea’s Coupang, currently valued at US$5+ billion. It got me thinking about my own story of personal disruption, and just how important personal reinvention is in today's increasingly uncertain environment where the exponential growth in technology is underpinning the disruption of not just industries, not just companies, but perhaps most importantly, people. Find out how to go about disrupting yourself and my personal journey of self-disruption. Show Notes: DisruptYourselfBook.com --- I hope you enjoyed this episode.

Episode #53: From Theatre to Disruption with Sportsbet's Head of Innovation, Leslie Barry
Leslie Barry is currently the head of innovation at Sportsbet, Australia’s largest online bookmaker with $117M operating profit / 79.4 million pounds in 2015. He was previously the head of innovation at Thoughtworks Australia, was the General Manager of Professional Services at Dimension Data Australia and has also founded several companies including Exertack, a health and fitness tracking business acquired by Techstars alumni Gyminee in 2008 and GetViable, an an online innovation platform sold to Hong Kong-based BigColors in 2011. He is an advisor to several startups including Scanned, CrowdsourceHire, he mentors this year’s intake at the Slingshot startup accelerator and also maintains a personal journal of his innovation journey at InsideInnovation.co. I’ve had the opportunity to meet with hundreds of innovation managers across a range of companies and speak with countless thought leaders on the topic, and Leslie is one guy who just gets it. To put it simply, Leslie avoids innovation theatre at all costs and has very little appetite for bullshit. In his brief time at Sportsbet he has already had a profound impact on the way the company approaches innovation, culminating recently with the ideation, design, development and release of a product in just 12 weeks - unheard of in the company previously. What makes it all the more impressive is that in 2015 Sportsbet’s revenues grew by 54% so navigating internal politics, when things are rosy and stakeholders might see little reason, on the surface, to change the way they do things. As you will all know if you’ve listened to this show before, I am a massive advocate for the benefits of health and fitness, of both body and mind, on productivity, and we’ll also dive into Leslie’s approach to staying on top of his game. Topics Discussed: - AI and the threat of human extinction - Why an organisation like Sportsbet needs to innovate - How to get buy-in from senior stakeholders and IT - How to avoid innovation theatre - Why Leslie says he won't have a job at Sportsbet in 2 years - How to effectively partner with startups - Leslie's 'fail button' - What excites Leslie about the next ten years in tech Show Notes: Leslie's Twitter - @lesliecbarry Leslie's Blog - InsideInnovation.co Leslie's Linkedin - www.linkedin.com/in/lesliebarry Sportsbet's e-sports experiment - respawn.sportsbet.com.au --- I hope you enjoyed this episode.

Episode #52: Fast Fix Friday on 50 Lessons from 50 Episodes! Thank You Everybody!
Thank you listeners, we've just turned 50...episodes that is, and to celebrate, I've put together a list of the 50 most memorable lessons from the first 50 episodes! Oftentimes, we read books and blogs, we listen to podcasts and audiobooks, we watch keynotes and take part in workshops, we umm and ahh, but despite all of the investment in consuming this knowledge, we rarely take the time to reflect and truly digest the knowledge so that we can become better at applying these insights. Taking time out to reflect on what you’ve just consumed and perhaps scribble some notes down is kind of like eating the right thing after a workout to maximise your results - it’s an incredibly powerful tool when it comes to retention and application of key insights. Over the past six months I’ve been fortunate enough to interview a number of thought leaders on the topic of corporate innovation, entrepreneurship and self improvement, culminating with episode 50. To celebrate this milestone, I took some time out to reflect on some of the best lessons from my podcasting journey and have prepared a list of the 50 most memorable lessons, as the ones that stick with you are usually the best. You can download the entire list at collectivecamp.us/blog/50lessons Why?
