Impulse Control, The 4 Fastest Ways To Ruin Your Reputation, AI Maxxing, Starting A New Job, & Genghis Khan - Ep 66

We start with Birkenstocks end with leadership, impulsivity, artificial intelligence, Genghis Khan, reputation, career advice and simple rules for avoiding unnecessary problems.We talk about impulsive decisions, why some people repeatedly find themselves dealing with the consequences of avoidable mistakes, and how to deal with it. We cover emotional reactions, delayed decision-making and why a small pause can change the trajectory of a conversation, a relationship or even a career.The conversation then moves into artificial intelligence, the future of work and whether people are focusing on the wrong part of the AI revolution. Technology may continue to accelerate, but human beings still need meaning, purpose and connection.We also discuss leadership, first impressions, starting a new job, building credibility, asking better questions, and the behaviours that damage trust before people even realise they are doing it.Somewhere in the middle we end up talking about Genghis Khan.Pretty standard episode, really.In short:Why impulsivity is rarely the real problemThe gap between reaction and actionThe seven-day email ruleDelayed decisions and better outcomesAI, work and the search for meaningWhy human beings need purposeLeadership mistakes people make earlyFirst impressions in a new roleThe fastest ways to damage credibilityQuestions that build trust across teamsGenghis Khan, Temujin and long-term thinkingBirkenstocks and unnecessary purchasesFind us here:Digital Resources: Therackycunninghamcollective.comInstagram: @letsjuststartpodcastTiktok: @letsjuststartpodcastYoutube: @LetsJustStartPodcastLaura Insta: @laura.rackyLaura Tiktok: @laurarackyChristian Insta: @leaderbiltacademyChristian Tiktok: @leaderbiltLeadership training and coaching: Leaderbilt.co
