066 Challenge Your Thinking with Marcus Cauchi

Marcus Cauchi's primary focus is to help technology companies to grow or turn them around which requires a complex combination of a good deal of hard thinking, the right systems, strategy, structure, people and partnerships. Getting to the root of the real problems and holding up a mirror to his clients, Marcus focuses on their vision, clarity and purpose and asks them three key questions: Where? Why? How? It's Marcus's job to both challenge them and challenge their thinking.     KEY TAKEAWAY "Take time for planning. Take time to appreciate what you've got, the people around you, who you've got and just take it easier on yourself. Stop judging yourself, that prejudgment, that prejudice that you have towards yourself. That's lethal. And you're not always right. That's the lesson that's taken me a while to learn and I think it's dangerous to live in a bubble."   BOOK RECOMMENDATIONS* Marketing Rebellion by Mark W.
