19 - Exploring the Impact of Coaching on Business Leaders with Julian Harris

03/08/24 • 28 min

Your host, Matthew Pohl, talks with the Founder and Bespoke Coach for CEOs and Business Owners, Julian Harris. Julian's story begins with a deep-rooted connection to the legal field, influenced by his father's successful career as a barrister and judge. Around the age of 16 or 17, Julian decided to follow in his father's footsteps. He spent two decades honing his skills within in-house legal teams for major players in the retail and food sectors, both in the UK and internationally. Despite his achievements and expertise, Julian confessed that his heart wasn't fully invested in the legal profession.

In 2018, a transformative conversation with a coach opened Julian's eyes to his true passion: coaching. He realized that this path resonated with his love for engaging in deep, meaningful dialogues. This epiphany led him to pivot from law to coaching, with a particular focus on supporting entrepreneurs on their journeys.

18 - Unleashing Business Potential: The Power of Organizational Rewilding with Phil Bristol

Your host, Matthew Pohl, talks with the Executive Coach, C-Suite Consultant, Key Note Speaker, and Founder, Managing Principal, and CEO of Projectivity Solutions, Phil Bristol. Phil's professional story is a testament to the power of strategic planning and adaptability. With 15 years of military experience under his belt, Phil transitioned into the corporate world, where he honed his skills in strategic planning for a large international pharmaceutical company. His military background instilled in him a disciplined approach to business, which he carried over into his corporate role, treating his business unit as if it were his own company.

In 1990, Phil made the bold decision to venture out on his own, a move he had been preparing for throughout his corporate tenure. He brought with him a robust business plan and a clear vision for his consulting practice. Since then, Phil has advised numerous small and mid-sized businesses, as well as Fortune 500 and Fortune 100 companies, leveraging his extensive experience to guide them through various stages of growth.

Phil and Matthew share a common discovery that significantly influenced their professional paths—the stages of growth methodology. This approach, detailed in the book "Navigating the Growth Curve," provides a framework for understanding and managing business growth. The ReWild Group later acquired this methodology, enhancing it into a comprehensive business growth system known as organizational rewilding.

Phil's decision to become certified in organizational rewilding was driven by his process-oriented mindset. The methodology's structured approach and documented processes resonated with him, allowing him to deliver consistent results to his clients. By combining the rewilding framework with his own expertise, Phil has been able to offer a unique and powerful service to organizations seeking to improve their performance.

20 - The Power of Practical Communication in Building Trust, Transparency, and Engagement with The Open Door Group's Dan Purkey

Your host, Matthew Pohl, talks with the President, Podcaster, Speaker, Author, and Management Consultant of The Open Door Group, Dan Purkey. Dan's story is not your typical corporate tale. He began his career as a math teacher, a role that honed his logical thinking and nurtured his innate passion for teaching. This foundation paved the way for his entry into the corporate world with Pacific Northwest Bell in 1981, which later became part of US West. His diverse experience in sales, regulatory affairs, and operations gave him a comprehensive understanding of how businesses operate—and sometimes how they don't.

During his tenure at Comcast, Dan took on the challenge of leading a team of 250 people in Salt Lake City. His mission was to revolutionize the culture from the stereotypical cable company image to one that excelled in customer service, communication, and operational efficiency. The results were tangible, with significant improvements across all metrics.

After a buyout from Comcast, Dan transitioned his expertise into business consulting. His first client was a small contracting company he had previously worked with at Comcast. This experience began his focus on small to medium-sized businesses, typically ranging from 15 to 150 employees.
