I’m cheating a bit. Last week I promised to post 3 things that I found inspiring every Friday. Today I’m posting 20.
Last night I attended Consult Australia‘s FutureNet awards night for NSW (magnificently convened by Linda Gaunt). It was a COVID-safe event held in the Grand Ballroom of the ICC in Sydney. There were only 30 people in attendance including 19 of the 20 participants, all 4 of the mentors and the facilitators, like me, who led trainings over the last 6 months. But the event was live-streamed and had many more watching from their devices at home.
These 20 emerging leaders were divided into 4 groups, based on their Strengths Profiles, and entered into a competition to revitalise the Eurobodalla Regional Botanic Gardens, damaged after the bush fires.
I honestly don’t know how the judges decided. All 4 designs were outstanding, IMHO, and the presentations were polished and professional.
This group has only met face to face once before – their kickoff night in early March before lockdown.
Their site visit was cancelled so they never actually got to see the property.

About
In 2009 CEO and founder Kim Seeling Smith started Ignite Global after deciding that instead of being paid to put bums in seats (working as a recruiter for the 15 years prior to that) she wanted to help More
A2B Australia Limited (CabCharge) is doing some really interesting work with self-managed teams. This has been a concept that many of my clients are struggling with as they redesign their org structures to increase collaboration, ownership and accountability. It’s a tough nut to crack.
I love, love, love Korn Ferry‘s research, and the Future of Work Trends 2022: A New Era of Humanity report does not disappoint. One of the best quotes from page 6 is,
𝗧𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝗺𝘆 𝗺𝗼𝗻𝗲𝘆 – 𝗽𝗹𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗲! It’s the end of the Australian Financial year and I often get the question, “𝗜𝗳 𝗜 𝗽𝗮𝘆 𝗯𝗲𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗲𝗻𝗱 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘆𝗲𝗮𝗿 𝘄𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝘄𝗲 𝗯𝗲 𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗱𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸 𝗻𝗲𝘅𝘁 𝘆𝗲𝗮𝗿?”
To which I, of course, reply with a resounding yes!
If you speak at conferences or events as part of your role or business, chances are you’ll encounter the tech crew – those amazing magicians in black who make everything look and sound great, even under intense pressure.
When you’re under the spotlight, it can be easy to overlook the fact that creating an outstanding conference experience is a team effort. How can you make sure you’re a speaker the tech crew loves to...
Friday funny. You’ve heard of the KISS Principle, right? Keep It Simple Stupid (or I prefer Silly). Now I’d like to introduce the KSS Principle!
KISS Principle
My clients have told me for years that one of my superpowers is breaking down complex concepts and making them simple.
In fact, one of the best testimonials I’ve ever gotten came from Mike Saxton, who said,
A few months ago, I was leading a training session, and I mentioned the KISS Principle…and one of the participants said, you should rename it the KSS Principle for Kim Seeling Smith. We had a good laugh, but now I find myself saying it frequently.
