Podcasts about Bristow

Timmy Bristow was nine years old when he ruptured his pancreas playing footy at recess, crawled to the tap, and waited alone in a dark staffroom until his mum finished her shift. By the time she arrived he was blue. A few hours later he was on an ambulance plane to the Royal Children's Hospital in Melbourne with a thirty percent chance of surviving surgery. While Timmy was in hospital, of the young AFL players who showed up on the ward to help cheer up the young patient was… Luke Darcy. But in that moment - neither of them could have possibly known they'd end up here, having this conversation today. Timmy grew up in country Victoria, excelled on the sporting field, and for twenty-one years carried the secret that he'd been sexually abused by someone in a position of authority and trust - in an institution that covered it up. He held it through his teens, through footy, through becoming a husband and a father. Until his sister said she'd tell their parents herself if he didn't. In this conversation on Empowering Leaders, Timmy and Luke talk about what that silence cost and what breaking the silence felt like. They talk about the 28.5% of Australian children who will experience sexual abuse before they turn eighteen, about Timmy’s mammoth effort to run seven marathons in seven states in seven days for Bravehearts, and about what Timmy has built on the other side of all of it - an incredible school he leads the way he wished he'd been led, a personal philosophy of connection, vulnerability and consistency, and a refusal to become a statistic.

Dominic shares why credentials and co-creation with educators matter, why “show your workings” should be a red-line expectation for any provider, and how to spot the difference between a serious product and a thin “wrapper” around a chatbot.If you're trying to avoid confusing excitement with impact, this one will give you a practical lens, and a better set of questions, before you commit.

In this episode of The Recruiter's Recruitment Podcast, Lysha Holmes speaks with Sam Hameed, Co-Founder of SPG Resourcing and Director of SPG Intelligence, about challenging recruitment's traditional playbook.Sam shares how SPG has built a technical recruitment model that prioritises credibility over clichés. Every consultant receives a £2–2.5k annual training budget to gain real industry certifications — and internal engineers technically interview candidates before they're submitted to clients. The result? Higher success rates, reduced time-to-hire, and stronger client trust.But the real disruption? Moving away from commission-first thinking.Sam explains why SPG is transitioning toward running each recruiter's desk as a profit centre — giving full visibility of desk costs, break-even points, and profitability. Instead of focusing purely on top-line fees, consultants are rewarded on sustainable profit and long-term value.The episode also explores:Post-2023 market realitiesCommercial accountability in recruitmentBuilding a tech-enabled services groupDeveloping stronger, more credible recruitersWho This Episode Is ForRecruitment founders rethinking commission modelsAgency leaders navigating tighter marketsTech recruiters wanting deeper industry credibilityConsultants who want to think like business ownersA candid, commercially focused conversation about elevating recruitment standards.

In this episode of The Recruiter's Recruitment Podcast, Lysha Holmes is joined by global talent sourcing trainer and international speaker Vanessa Raath for a refreshingly practical conversation about AI in recruitment.This isn't another hype-filled AI episode. Instead, Vanessa shares how recruiters can use AI intentionally to remove admin, save hours each week, and refocus on what truly drives success in recruitment – human connection, relationships, and personal brand.They explore why recruiters must “up their human” to stay ahead of AI, how to avoid shiny-tool syndrome, and what recruitment leaders should be thinking about right now as the industry settles into the next phase of AI adoption. Vanessa also shares insights from working with recruitment businesses globally, meeting 100+ AI vendors, and helping teams choose tech that actually improves time-to-hire rather than adding complexity.The conversation also covers launching and scaling a recruitment business, building a brand that creates inbound opportunities, the future of LinkedIn and sourcing tools, and why passionate curiosity is the most important skill recruiters can take into 2026 and beyond.Who this episode is for:Recruitment founders, agency leaders, solo recruiters, talent acquisition professionals, and anyone feeling overwhelmed – or left behind – by AI in recruitment.

This week Patrick Flanagan the Founder of Clarence George joins the podcast, to unpack nearly two decades in recruitment and the long-term strategy behind building a high-performing specialist agency.Patrick's journey started with a business degree and graduate scheme before he fell into recruitment - initially working in Accounting & Finance, then pivoting into the actuarial market back in 2010.

This episode of Fossils by Firelight was recorded in Hermanus, a place seasoned geologists seem to migrate to once their field boots are well worn. It brings together John Bristow, Henny Greeff, and Malcolm Lee for a wide-ranging, story-rich conversation about a life spent with rocks. From first field assignments and unforgettable camps to mentors, missteps, underground lessons, global mining adventures, and the responsibility that comes with experience, the discussion blends humour, hard-won wisdom, and sharp insight into how geology shapes both landscapes and lives. It's a candid reflection on collaboration, communication, curiosity, and why getting your hands (sometimes literally your tongue) on real rocks still matters. Before we wrap up, a small correction from the editorial desk: John mentioned Gideon Groenewald during the conversation, but the geologist in question was in fact Gideon Scheepers — proof that even solid memories can suffer a little geological slippage over time.

In today's episode, we're joined by Elvis Kamba, author of the new book on Mark Bristow and the extraordinary rise of Randgold Resources. Elvis worked inside Randgold and later Barrick under Bristow's leadership, giving him a unique front-row perspective on one of the most influential mining stories of the last 30 years. In this conversation, we explore what inspired him to capture the Randgold journey, how Bristow's leadership philosophy shaped the company, and what made Randgold's approach to Africa so different from everyone else. We'll dive into the pivotal moments from Morila, the “company maker,” to the hard lessons of Syama, the engineering triumph of Kibali, and ultimately the “merger of the century” with Barrick. Elvis also reflects on Randgold's culture, its ability to build elite teams, its relationships with governments and communities, and the broader message he wants the industry and young professionals to take from his book. It's a rare, insider look at one of mining's most remarkable success stories  KEY TAKEAWAYS Unlike many mining companies that view Africa primarily as a source of resources, there were opportunities for investment and community development The challenges faced at Syama Gold Mine served as a crucible for Randgold, leading to the development of better project selection frameworks and enhanced environmental and social capabilities, ultimately strengthening the company's operational discipline. Morila was pivotal for Randgold, transforming it from a small exploration company into a globally respected producer by generating significant cash flows that funded further expansion and exploration. The final chapter of the book emphasises the positive contributions of mining to society, advocating for a more sustainable and environmentally friendly approach while highlighting the industry's role in technological advancements and community development BEST MOMENTS “Mark Bristow is a leader that represents one of the most transformational leadership... He had an inherent interest for the country and the people that were in the places where he did the business." "Morila was Randgold's first world-class deposit... It transformed what was known as a small exploration company into a globally respected producer." "Syama was like a crucible where Randgold's ability to manage future mines was forged... They developed a smarter project selection framework, which they popularly called our filters GUEST RESOURCES www.linkedin.com/in/elvis-kamba-8897b236 Amazon Link to Book: https://bit.ly/3YhqKzA VALUABLE RESOURCES Mail:        ⁠rob@mining-international.org⁠ LinkedIn: ⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/rob-tyson-3a26a68/⁠ X:              ⁠https://twitter.com/MiningRobTyson⁠  YouTube: ⁠https://www.youtube.com/c/DigDeepTheMiningPodcast⁠  Web:        ⁠http://www.mining-international.org⁠ CONTACT METHOD ⁠rob@mining-international.org⁠ ⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/rob-tyson-3a26a68/⁠ Podcast Description Rob Tyson is an established recruiter in the mining and quarrying sector and decided to produce the “Dig Deep” The Mining Podcast to provide valuable and informative content around the mining industry.

As we think about systems change, it's all too easy to get caught up the technical design of new institutions and 'system architecture'. But if we are being asked to consider a qualitatively different way governing, convening, educating, distributing resources - all of the fundamentals of society -then perhaps we can start by asking: What has LOVE got to do with any of it? As I share at the start of this episode, it's been clear to me that it's difficult to bring the concept of love into such discussions. So I really wanted to explore this a few courageous and amazing individuals, who I knew would be up for it! In this episode you'll hear from four amazing people working in quite different sectors - from existential risk, climate resilience to cognitive science to leadership and communications to teacher training and education. But all united by the willingness to talk about love as central to their work. Dr. Laura Penn is an expert in leadership communication and the speaking arts. As the Founder of The Leadership Speaking School (https://www.theleadershipspeakingschool.com/), she transforms leaders and teams from the world's most well-known companies, business schools and organizations into authentic communicators of the digital age. Her clients include the World Economic Forum, International Olympic Committee, United Nations, World Wildlife Fund for Nature (WWF), IMD Business School, Ebay, Roche, Louis Vuitton Moët Hennessy (LVMH), Nespresso, Salesforce, Logitech, the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA), EHL Hospitality Business School and many more.With her first career as a conservation biologist, Laura is also a distinguished voice in the sustainability sector, empowering her audiences to communicate sustainability with gravitas.https://www.laurapennspeaker.com/linkedin.com/in/laurapennphdJamie Bristow is a writer linking inner and outer transformation, and a policy advisor on the application of inner development and contemplative practices in public life. His work includes influential reports such as Reconnection: Meeting the Climate Crisis Inside Out and The System Within: Addressing the inner dimension of sustainability and systems transformation. Jamie is currently developing his work in a new direction, supported by a two-year fellowship, and is initiating a yet-to-be-announced project with Professor Rebecca Henderson at Harvard University (https://rebeccahenderson.com/). He is a co-founder of the Life Itself Sensemaking Studio; honorary associate of Bangor University; special advisor to the Inner Development Goals; from 2015 to 2023, Jamie played an instrumental role in the UK's All-Party Parliamentary Group on Mindfulness.https://www.linkedin.com/in/jamiebristow/ https://www.jamiebristow.com/Khadija Shahper Bakhtiar is CEO and Founder of Teach For Pakistan - MPP, University of California, Berkeley; BSc Hons., LUMS; Rozan, Islamabad; UN Women, NYC; Fulbright Alum.https://iteachforpakistan.org/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/khadija-shahper-bakhtiar-045b60122/And Andrea Hiott, who you have heard on the podcast previously in episode 209 (https://www.goodimpactlabs.com/podcast/andrea-hiott) is Andrea is a philosopher, cognitive scientist and writer and host of the Love and Philosophy community and channel: https://lovephilosophy.substack.com/

What does it mean to (re)orient our entire culture around the power of love?  To answer this, we have to understand the nature of love and of power and how both of these have many meanings in our culture, some of them essential to moving forward - and some of them so toxic they turn the entire concept into a poisoned cue. This week's guest is friend of the podcast, Jamie Bristow. We spoke to him back in episode #274, recorded at the start of this year, and there, we consider what it was to be a Spiritual Warrior in our times - a concept to which Jamie has given the past 16 years of his life. Jamie is someone who lives and breathes at the intersection between spirituality - specifically Buddhism - and international policy in the realm of what is still called sustainability but which must, now, be shifting towards systemic change. For eight years, he was clerk to the UK's All Party Parliamentary Group on Mindfulness and director of the associated policy institute, the Mindfulness Initiative, where he helped to introduce mindfulness to a number of other parliaments around the world. In 2023, he joined the Inner Development Goals team to lead on public narrative and policy development, emphasising the inner skills and qualities needed for a sustainable transition. His work includes influential reports such as Reconnection: Meeting the Climate Crisis Inside Out and The System Within: Addressing the inner dimension of sustainability and systems transformation. He is an associate of Life Itself, The Climate Majority Project, Mind & Life Institute and Bangor University and now is working with Professor Rebecca Henderson on an initiative which is currently called the ReWeaving Project and it's in this area that we focussed our attention. There are many ways these conversations go. Often, I'm exploring a particular body of work and am asking questions to which, broadly, I have a sense of the answer - 'tell me about [x] that is squarely in your field'.  Sometimes, though, I'm talking with someone I know well enough, and where we share enough of a common grounding, that I can ask questions to which I don't know the answer. Where we can find the places where our Theories of Change meet but perhaps don't overlap, and explore the fertile, liminal spaces of uncertainty.  Jamie is one of these people and this was one of those conversations - where we explored love and power and game theory and how we get from where we are, through a nexus of power that is arrayed firmly around the Dark Triad of Narcissism, Psychopathy and Sadism (and I know that's slightly different to other Dark Triads that have Raw Cunning as the third one and sadism as an afterthought, but I think the cunning is in there with Psychopathy and the Sadism is, as we're seeing around the world, an essential part of the performative power-over that the wounded egos need to tell themselves they're safe). Anyway - we explored all the things that matter - and still only scratched the surface. So Jamie will definitely be coming back for another conversation, but in the meantime, here we are, delving deep into what it is to be human, and to be striving for emergence into a new, generative, kin-centric and flourishing system at this moment of total transformation.

Set against the backdrop of one of politics's most repressive regimes, Agnes Bristow's vivid prose captures the heartache and triumph of a woman who danced not just for art - but for her very survival.

In a world of turmoil where the only certainty is uncertainty, what happens if we who yearn for a future we'd be proud to leave behind began really to speak the quiet part out loud? What happens if we acknowledge the meaning crisis of our culture and state clearly that we need a world based on Love: on the raw, wild, wonder of life itself? And what happens if we shape our politics around this, instead of defensive attempts to make the death cult of predatory capitalism feel less... deathly?This week's guest, Jamie Bristow is someone who lives in the worlds where policies are made and, for the past sixteen years, he has been consciously committed to being a Spiritual Warrior with all this implies. Like Jon Alexander, Jamie started off life as an advertising executive before realising he needed to align his inner and outer worlds.  Now, he's a writer and policy advisor working at the intersection of inner and outer transformation and sustainability. For eight years, he was clerk to the UK's All Party Parliamentary Group on Mindfulness and director of the associated policy institute, the Mindfulness Initiative, (where he helped to introduce mindfulness to a number of other parliaments).  During this time he worked with legislators around the world to make mindfulness and compassion training serious matters of public policy and catalysts for a healthier political process. In 2023, he joined the Inner Development Goals team to lead on public narrative and policy development, emphasising the inner skills and qualities needed for a sustainable transition.
