Today’s conversation is with Andy Bounds. Andy was awarded the title Britain’s Sales Trainer of the Year, and is an expert in communication to help businesses and individuals achieve more. Andy has worked in 40+ countries, with some of the world's largest and most famous companies, as well as for Governments, professional bodies and business experts. His core belief is “AFTERs drive everything. It's not what you say that counts. It’s what people do differently AFTER you’ve said it.” Inevitably in this conversation, we learn how to communicate better, sell more, and be more successful. That’s a pretty good set of achievements in my book. Key areas that we discuss include what communications we need to stop, how to replace wasteful communication, and communicating clearly by taking the other party’s perspective into account. You will also find out about how Andy cut his working week to 4 days while growing his business, and how you can implement some of the same measures in your business or career. This episode mainly focuses on improving the impact of our communication and getting the most from our time, but I do sneak in some sales related questions which Andy shares his expertise on.

Today’s conversation is with Zuby. Zuby is a rapper, coach, author and podcaster. Expect to learn about Zuby’s background and hugely varied experiences across so many different facets of life. These all played a leading role to shape the man we see in front of us and get to hear from in this conversation. Zuby is well known as a free thinker and forthright speaker, and I take this opportunity to understand why this is the case and what personality traits and experiences have led to this ability. Inevitably, we discuss the last two years and Zuby's social commentary and stance he has taken to critique and question the measures taken in many countries to handle the pandemic. At a time when many commentators appear to be scrambling to be on the sceptical, critical thinking side of the debate, I ask Zuby if he feels vindicated in standing up to the decisions and mandates that have been in place. Included in this conversation is an analysis of the language used to drive human behaviour, the disregard the Western world has had for how Africa has handled this virus, and the general disregard the elites have had for the general population. This is a deep dive into Zuby's life story to this point including his rap career, passion for fitness, ability to discuss controversial topics clearly and publicly, and what has enabled him to do all of this without the constraints of cancel culture and challenges with freedom of speech.
