Aidan McCullen: Developing a reinvention mindset
Manage episode 366665038 series 2987645
How do you develop a reinvention mindset?
Who better to talk with than Aidan McCullum, who's used this mindset as he's moved from being a professional rugby player, to commentator, to innovation leader, to transformational consultant, keynote speaker, and host of the successful Innovation Show.
He talks about what it takes to reinvent yourself, how to think about your mindset (your ‘software’) and how to look after yourself as you experience discomfort and anxiety. Aidan emphasises the importance of a ‘fuzzy’ vision to help guide you as you make important decisions.
“You can't change business models until change mental models. You don't change what people do until they change how they think.” – Aidan McCullen
