I've invited content strategist and podcast producer Brendan Keogh back on to the show to help me recap a previous interview I recorded with LinkedIn expert, Richard van der Blom.

My interview with Richard was all around 'unlocking the LinkedIn algorithm', as we delved into his recently-released, well-researched LINKEDIN ALGORITHM REPORT.

Richard shared so many insights and tips (in episode 254), so it was terrific to sit down with Brendan to dig deeper into topics raised in that interview.

We also riff on another previous episode (#255) all around building your brand on LinkedIn with Michelle B Griffin & Michelle J Raymond.

Lots and lots of LinkedIn gold folks - I hope you enjoy it!

In a world increasingly dominated by artificial intelligence and automation, it's easy to feel like we're losing our edge as human professionals. But what if I told you that the key to standing out and thriving in this AI-driven landscape isn't about competing with machines, but rather embracing our uniquely human qualities? This is the theme of this fascinating conversation with Mark Schaefer , a marketing strategy consultant, keynote speaker, and author of the newly-released book, Audacious: How Humans Win in an AI Marketing World . Mark's insights shed light on how we can leverage human connection and creativity to carve out our niche in a rapidly evolving business landscape. At the heart of Mark's philosophy is the concept of being audacious . But what does that really mean in the context of our professional lives? It's not about grand gestures or risky stunts. Instead, it's about creating moments of awe in our everyday interactions and work. Mark defines audacity as "something that creates a moment of awe in your life." It's about doing something that makes people sit up and take notice, something that sparks curiosity and connection. In a world where AI can churn out competent work at lightning speed, it's these human touches that truly set us apart. Also touched on during this conversation is Mark's own journey, how he started blogging at age 49 and how it changed his life immeasurably. Inspiring stuff! Here are a few quotes from Mark: "You can't outsmart AI. You have to out human AI." "What's a little thing we can do to add awe to someone's day? To just create that spark of an emotional connection between us." "The great mindset today is to do something so interesting, so generous, so unmissable that other people can't wait to talk about it, because those are the great storytellers and that is what is believed."

287: It's never too late to get out of your comfort zone (and take charge of your life) - with Richard Sauerman 58:23

19 weeks پیش58:23

58:23

Welcome to the belief and conviction episode of Crank The 3rd ! While many of us have, after three decades in the business trenches, experienced a decent amount of professional success, not everyone is fulfilled. A lot of middle aged people remain stuck in their comfort zone, and are not playing as big a game as they could be. Or, in the words of this week's guest, they're not living a "10 out of 10 life". So I invited Richard Sauerman on to the show to deliver a 'kick in the pants', and he delivers! Richard - aka 'The Brand Guy' - is a thinker and an humanist, with a massive interest in people and 'the human condition'. He has written two books and appears in the media on brand-related issues. Richard has done the strategic thinking, brand planning and communications for over 200 brands in his career, but he's probably best known these days as a high-voltage motivational speaker (and reality TV contestant!). Wow! We covered some ground in this episode, with lots of laughs, F-bombs, motivational nuggets and food for thought, all delivered at pace! Across the course of the conversation, Richard: Discusses overcoming fears of mediocrity and societal pressures, urging listeners to challenge limiting beliefs and embrace risks for growth. Emphasises authenticity, particularly for those over 50. Explores the link between happiness and service to others, drawing on research in positive psychology. Shares insights from Ralph Kelly’s Stay Kind organisation, and James Clear’s “Atomic Habits,” emphasising daily acts of kindness and continuous improvement. Addresses the challenge of forming connections, particularly in workplace settings, and how small gestures can improve relationships. As the oldest contestant on the TV's Married at First Sight (Australia), Richard reflects on his experience of being on the show and the personal growth it prompted, especially after being diagnosed with ADHD at 63. This revelation, he says, reshaped his understanding of his life, marriage, and career, leading him to advocate for increased awareness of adult ADHD. Richard plans to write a book to educate others about ADHD and its misconceptions, using writing as a therapeutic outlet. Strap yourselves in folks, this conversation is high energy! ___________________ QUOTABLE QUOTES FROM RICHARD: “So if you like waiting for some day or one day to be a 10, you might not get the chance.” “A lot of people are not fulfilled and happy and satisfied in the way they want to be, despite and in the face of their successes.” “Don’t delay. Don’t wait for tomorrow. Don’t wait for the next day or next week.” “Stop trying to be right ... just choose to be happy.” “You can change the world in your way through those little small acts.” “Tiny steps, small actions.” ___________________…

Welcome back to the podcast formerly known as 'Reputation Revolution', now called CRANK THE 3RD! In this episode, I explain what the rebranded show is all about: Who's it for, and what can you expect from future episodes from now on. About the 'new' podcast: CRANK THE 3RD is the show for motivated individuals aged around the 50 mark and over - those who have been in the business and professional trenches for some three-plus decades and have the metaphorical ‘scars on the knuckles’ and the ‘scuffs on the knees’ to prove it! You've seen and done a lot over the journey, and now have reached an age and stage of life where you might be thinking: “What next?” ... Do I continue with, sell, or downsize my business? Do I pivot my career so I can focus on doing something more meaningful? Do I adopt a portfolio approach to my work and build out numerous streams of income? Do I wind back my workload and develop a side-hustle around one of my passions? Do I take the plunge and move to another country altogether and work from there? Do I write that book I’ve always wanted to do, or start a YouTube channel and become a full-time ‘content creato r’? Bottom line: Those of us in this stage of professional life have oodles of experience under our belts, having racked up years’ worth of practical knowledge and vocational expertise, not to mention we’re a lot more sure of ourselves and confident in our own abilities.
