Acquiring existing businesses can be a more practical and lucrative option compared to starting a startup, as it provides immediate income and the potential for growth through acquisitions. When faced with uncertainty, it is important to determine the time available to make a decision and allocate probabilities to potential outcomes to make a better decision. Richard emphasizes the importance of humility and surrounding oneself with people who are smarter and more skilled, as this leads to personal and professional growth. Successful business owners often focus on building a great business or empowering others rather than solely pursuing financial gain.

Transitioning from being an expert to being a leader can be a challenging process for actuaries. Actuaries are known for their technical expertise and analytical skills, which they have honed through years of studying and passing exams. However, when they are promoted to leadership positions, they often struggle to step back from the technical work and trust others to handle it. In this episode, we dive into a conversation with Julia Lessing, a fellow of the Institute of Actuaries, Australia, and principal actuarial director of Guardian Actuarial, about building management and leadership skills that go beyond simply reading books or studying theory. Some of the insights shared are the need for actuaries to let go of control and trust their team members, as well as the importance of active listening and empathy in building strong relationships, the value of learning from mistakes, and the need for patience and flexibility in career progression. We show that leadership can be broken down into a set of micro-skills that can be learned, even when these skills don’t come about naturally. About the guest: Julia Lessing is a fellow of the Institute of Actuaries, Australia, with 20 years of experience as a consulting actuary. She is also a certified organizational coach and an experienced counselor. Julia established Guardian Actuarial in 2015, where she is the principal actuarial director. She is passionate about fostering forward-thinking leaders in the actuarial industry and runs the Guardian Actuarial Leadership program to help actuaries build their management toolkits and leadership skills. Julia is a mother of four adult children and is actively involved in her community as a qualified counselor for Lifeline and an authorized foster carer.

Developing leadership skills requires active listening, empathy, and the ability to understand and connect with team members on an individual level. Actuaries should embrace the non-linear nature of their careers and be open to sideways steps or additional experiences that can broaden their skill set. Building strong relationships and networking with colleagues and industry professionals is crucial for career growth and advancement. Actuaries should apply the time value of money concept to their careers, understanding that progress and success take time and patience.

Why do we let challenges cloud our successes? Why do we overlook the tough work it takes (and lots of hard times) to reach a successful endpoint? And how can we overcome our feelings of failure and stuckness so we can move into action toward the next goal? Let’s answer these questions in today’s episode of Leadership Live. In a fascinating conversation with Joel Green, CEO and Founder of Pro Level Training we hear about Joel’s retirement from professional basketball to focus on building a business that really makes a difference.

Ayanda Mbatha worked as a mechanical engineer when the Covid pandemic reached South Africa. He lost his job and had to find a new job fast. During his job search, he refused to become the victim and decided that he would stop at nothing to find another job. His story is about incredible resilience and fascinating courage. Listen to this episode to find out the things he did to secure interviews and find a new job - things many of us would not have the courage to do and gained some publicity for it! He then used his experience to help others. Using his social media platform, he now connects employers with potential employees. As a walking billboard, his experience has inspired a case study about resilience written by Dr @Frank Magwegwe, Ph.D. from Gordon Institute of Business Science. He’s also an award-winning Innovator at the Raising Legends Awards for the #VideoInterviewCompetition initiative.

In 2 years, he’s lived in 12 different countries, managing logistics of travel in a pandemic with 2 small kids.

Do you want to align your inner self with how you interface with the outside world? When you elevate your leadership game (the way you think, feel, and act), you elevate your sense of spirit, freedom, passion, and your quality of life. Would you consider using plant medicine (or psychedelics) to help you gain that alignment? When you have everything and still feel that something intangible is missing from your life, here’s one way to explore the depths of your inner world to see what comes up and how it can change you. In today’s conversation with Jonathan de Potter, we speak about elevating your leadership and discovering more joy by exploring deeper levels of consciousness. Because to lead your business, you need to be aligned - body and mind - inside and out. In this episode, we dive deep into what psychedelics can do for you, how the journeys (ayahuasca and others) can help you shift deep patterns, and ask if there are other types of knowledge we can access beyond conventional knowledge. Would you dare to try? Tune in, gain some information, do the research and make up your own mind.

We hear a lot about what motivates and inspires a team but do we really know what we’re doing that demotivates them? Today’s guest is Julie Bartkus, a leading authority on workplace transformation. She’s embarked on a 20 year long, hands-on research, interviewing employees at all levels in organizations, to identify over 30 staff demotivators that drain team members and reduce employee engagement. Julie shares her first experience of becoming a manager and how she dealt with her first challenge. She shares a key demotivator that requires us to look at our own behaviors as leaders, not always having to prove ourselves and being willing to ask for help. We ended on connecting to a strong why, a strong sense of vision, and finding your joy… Take notes, sit tight and gain great tools to reduce demotivation and increase connection.

Babalwa Fatyi is a sustainability expert, who is a founder and Managing Director at Myezo Environmental Management Services. Babalwa has a fascinating story from modest beginnings growing up in a rural village, she always felt at one with her surroundings and her passion for science and sustainability led her to found a business that focuses on this. She’s also an author and poet. She shares her story of growing up where women were at the center of leadership – leading the home, the community, and the farms and coming to work and all of a sudden having a different experience where women in organizations need to be empowered. This took her by surprise since we don’t need to empower women, we need to remind them of their power. Stay tuned for an inspiring episode and a surprise at the end of the episode where she shares one of her poems with us that’s all about women’s strength and power.
