  How to Ask for a Pay Rise - and Actually Get Taken Seriously

  Sep 30, 20261h 32m

  Amy Gardiner is a negotiation specialist and creator of Pro Level Negotiation: https://prolevelnegotiation.com/ We negotiate every single day: With our boss. Our partner. Our kids. Even trying to convince your mates where to go for dinner. But most of us hear the word “negotiation” and immediately think confrontation. Amy Gardiner says that’s bullshit. Amy is a negotiation specialist who has spent decades in sales, real estate and high-pressure negotiations, and she believes negotiating is a skill that anyone can learn. And there is so much practical stuff in this conversation. + How to ask your boss for a pay rise. + What to do when someone simply says no. + Why you should stop deciding how a conversation is going to go before it even starts. + How to work out why someone is resisting you. + And why some of the best negotiations are actually supposed to feel uncomfortable. + We also get into relationships, confidence, men versus women, knowing when to walk away, and much more. This is one of those episodes where hopefully you will hear something and be able to use it in your every day life. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

  Legendary Kiwi Neuroscientist On True Happiness, Success & Why Talent Is Overrated

  Sep 27, 20261h 49m

  Dr Kerry Spackman has spent much of his career trying to answer one simple question: what separates the very best from everybody else? He’s a neuroscientist, mathematician, author and performance consultant who has worked inside the Formula One, with the All Blacks, Olympic athletes and some of the highest performers in the world. He wrote a book called The Winners Bible which sold out and became a best seller after Dan Carter endorsed it. And he has a new book out now called The Winners Formula. In this conversation we get into what Kerry learned from organizations like McClaren and the All Blacks. What he learned from people like Lewis Hamilton and Michael Schumacher. Why champions work differently, what causes people to choke under pressure, and why simply “working hard” isn’t enough. *** Thanks very much to the sponsors of this episode, the Generate KiwiSaver Scheme. Generate, like today’s guest, put performance first. Your KiwiSaver account is one of those things that’s easy to set up and then completely ignore whilst you’re hoping it’s all working out in the background. I had a chat with a Generate KiwiSaver adviser when they came on as sponsor, and it genuinely gave me clarity on what it means to have a KiwiSaver plan, and whether mine was actually set up to perform over the long-term. Generate is an award‑winning KiwiSaver provider with a strong track record of long‑term performance. You can check out their latest returns online, or book a no‑obligation chat with one of their advisers at https://www.generatewealth.co.nz/dom No pressure, just clear advice to help you feel confident you’re on track, without any judgement for leaving this on the to‑do list a bit longer than planned.

  World First: Podcasting 192m Up the Sky Tower With the Man Who Designed It

  Sep 25, 202630 min

  This is definitely one of the stranger places I’ve ever recorded a podcast! My guest is Gordon Moller - the architect behind Auckland’s Sky Tower - and we recorded this conversation while doing the AJ Hackett SkyRide on the outside of the very building he helped create. At 86, Gordon is still working, still drawing, still designing and apparently far more relaxed about being suspended 192 metres above Auckland than I am. We talk about where the original idea for the Sky Tower came from, the criticism it received, the enormous engineering challenge involved in building it, and what it feels like seeing something you designed nearly 30 years ago become part of a city’s identity. But for me, the most interesting part of this conversation is Gordon himself: his optimism, attitude towards ageing and his instinctive response to new experiences — “Why not?” ABOUT GORDON MOLLER Gordon Moller is one of New Zealand’s best-known architects and the architect behind Auckland’s Sky Tower. His career has included major residential, commercial, cultural and infrastructure projects in New Zealand and overseas, including work in China, Oman, Tonga and Macau. Among the Auckland projects Gordon discusses in this conversation are the Viaduct Events Centre, The Point apartments and the ASB Waterfront Theatre. Now 86, Gordon continues to work as an architect, regularly getting up at five or six in the morning to draw and develop new ideas. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

  Sep 23, 20262h 41m

  Warning: Kevin Locke speaks very openly about some difficult parts of his life, including childhood sexual abuse, trauma, grief, mental health and addiction. Some of this may be confronting, so please take care while listening. Kevin Locke is remembered by lots of rugby league fans as one of the most exciting players to pull on a Warriors jersey. He played 89 games for the Warriors between 2009 and 2014, represented the Kiwis eight times and was the Warriors' fullback during their run to the 2011 NRL Grand Final. But there was a lot going on behind all of that. Kevin came in wanting to talk honestly about the parts of his life he’s mostly kept to himself: Periods of homelessness as a teenager, losing his dad just as his career was taking off, depression, addiction, relationships, regret and the decisions that eventually took him away from rugby league. There are plenty of great Warriors stories in here too. But this conversation is really about Kevin Locke the person. And the man he’s trying to become now. Need to talk? 1737 – Need to Talk?

  Abused, Homeless At 15 - The Brain Expert Who Was Raised In Hell | Nathan Wallis

  Sep 20, 20261h 59m

  Nathan Wallis grew up around alcoholism, violence, abuse and foster care. He was homeless at 15, became a father young, went to counselling at 18 and somehow found his way into teaching, counselling and eventually a career helping people understand how our brains develop. For parents, this episode is jam packed with good useful advice:  We talk about the importance of the first 1,000 days, tantrums, anxiety, daycare, discipline, screens, teenagers, social media, are today’s kids snowflakes, and why asking a kid, “What were you feeling?” can sometimes tell you far more than asking  “What were you thinking?” (which, by the way, is the title of his brand-new book) But this episode also gets into Nathan himself- the man behind the job. We talk about the childhood he survived, the people who saved him, meeting his biological father shortly before he died, and the parts of himself he’s still trying to understand. **** Massive thanks to my long‑term podcast sponsor, Generate.  Like a lot of Kiwis, I spent years saying, “I’ll look at my KiwiSaver account later.”  Turns out later comes around faster than you think, and the decisions you make now could be the difference between counting every dollar in retirement or having the freedom to take that trip of a lifetime you've always talked about.  I switched my KiwiSaver account to Generate after they came on board, and honestly, I should’ve done it sooner.  They’re an award-winning KiwiSaver provider with strong long‑term performance. You can check out their latest returns online, or book a no‑obligation chat with one of their friendly advisers at generatekiwisaver.co.nz/dom.  No pressure, no judgement, no hard-sell – just good advice for wherever you happen to be in your investing journey.   The issuer of the scheme is Generate Investment Management Limited. You can view their Product Disclosure Statement and Financial Advice Provider information at generatekiwisaver.co.nz/disclosures.  Past performance does not guarantee future returns.  And just a reminder — I’m a podcast host, not a financial adviser. This is general information only, and I recommend getting expert advice before making any financial decisions.  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
