Episode 2 - Roger Madelin CBE
05/30/20 • 52 min
This evening I am joined by Roger Madelin CBE, Head of British Land’s Canada Water masterplan and former CEO of Argent and the chief visionary for Kings Cross. Roger and I discussed his earliest career from contractor to developer, the struggles he faced with a scheme like Kings Cross, what drives him and motivates him. He has a true passion for what he does and an incredible engine and confidence that he was on the right path with Kings Cross well before others saw the same vision. What I found fascinating was talking to Roger he has reached some dizzy heights in terms of titles and responsibilities but had no problem sharing and ultimately relinquishing these titles as he concentrated on his passions: the projects and the impact these have on the people in them.

Episode 1 - Marc Vlessing
In this episode with Marc Vlessing, we listen to how he has started careers in three separate sectors. I believe Marc could have been successful in whatever industry he choose, but for the past 16 years his chosen career has been as CEO for Pocket Living in the starter home market. I thought my favourite lesson I learnt from Marc was the importance of PURPOSE he speaks very passionately about these earlier careers and demonstrating real chameleon talents to adapt yet ultimately he left them behind, yet with pocket he experienced slower growth of this business compared to his earlier achievements, arguably he has faced much steeper hurdles yet what made him stick at it AND I believe it was because he has found his PURPOSE. And for anyone looking for a key of how to accelerate their careers do you know what your PURPOSE IS?

Episode 3 - Morwenna Hall
In this episode I sit down with Morwenna Hall to hear her meteoric rise from mechanical engineer to COO of Argent. We cover her project highlights from running the hugely coveted Coal Drops Yard. We talk about pushing yourself, risks of taking too much on, imposter syndrome and when to seize career opportunities. You can make up your own mind on why Morwenna has been so successful and accelerated her growth, but for its unwavering determination to challenge the status quo and not to simply blindly follow the path of others.
