Show Notes

I’d like to begin this episode by acknowledging the land that I am learning and living on is the traditional un-ceded, un-surrendered territory of the Anishnaabeg Algonquin People.

Leaders tend to want to make big splashes in the change pond very early in their leadership journey.  And this makes sense, we are finally in a position to ‘right the wrongs’, and take care of our people, and be the voice we feel the company needs to go to the next level. 

The challenge with being a new leader and having all of this energy is that the practical leadership experience to know when and how to make these splashes can only be achieved with time and practice.  And most often, businesses don’t, or can’t, wait for leaders to gain this invaluable experience.

This is where Mathew Georghiou, Founder and CEO of MediaSpark comes in.  Mathew and his team have taken our love of games and blended it with experiential leadership lessons, and these games gives new leaders and entrepreneurs the experience in a safe environment where we don’t have to worry about causing real-world damage to our team or business.

Mathew’s Recommended Book List:

I write books but stopped reading books years ago as I find most books to be an inefficient way to gain information (too much filler :-) — so instead I micro-read daily by following my curiosity.
