How To Learn Coding Fast with Gavin Allen

Play Episode Listen Later Nov 24, 2019 50:32

Programming, accounting and finance are skill areas that are not easily accessible for many. Whereas many regard accounting and finance to be dull and boring, coding is seen as a magic skill of geeks who started learning it shortly after they started walking and there is no way a “normal person” can learn it. Gavin Allen proofs and explains in a humorous but compelling way that the opposite is true for both skill areas. Excitingly, online education plus the appearance of low programming solutions actually make it possible for almost everyone, independent of age, skill level, wealth or former education, to learn how to code and use it in a powerful and creative way. The only thing you need is the ambition and the courage. After a career of two and a half decades in high level accounting and finance jobs at large corporate firms, Gavin Allen started to learn how to code at the age of 50. His AHA-moment was when he discovered that coding helps him to make things possible and to solve problems himself, for example if excel does not have a function he needs. He is now an independent consultant who helps businesses transform by using technology in a smart way. He also maximizes employee satisfaction by implementing technology that increases the efficiency of business processes and thereby makes extra hours and overtime unnecessary. On top of that, Gavin has launched the Podcast Excel Elites, that has the mission to embrace the fun and magic in accounting and finance, which Gavin has experienced throughout his career. Some of the questions I ask Gavin: - Why will humans not be replaced by technology in finance and accounting? (04:46) - You started to learn how to code when you were 50 years old. How did you develop the courage to start coding at that age? (19:00) - Which programming languages did you learn (23:57) - Do you recommend to start with JavaScript? (25:58) - Although accounting and finance is your passion, you reached a point where a corporate career as a CFO did not satisfy you anymore and you wanted to found your own business. What was the reason for that? (30:30) - Why do large companies not manage to create an environment where employees feel they are doing a purposeful activity and can leave a legacy? (34:47) - What is your view on the development of cryptocurrencies and blockchain, particular with regards to finance and accounting in the foreseeable future (39:40) - Which problems are you solving for companies? (44:33) I really enjoyed the interview with Gavin. He is one of the most charismatic accountants I have met and talking to him means receiving knowledge. The way he learned JavaScript, HTML5 and Python is inspiring. In this interview, he tells you how you can do it, too. If you want to book a 15 minute call with me where I listen to your personal case and give you my advise, you can sign up here: https://linktr.ee/janmehlhose Here you find the Excel Elites Podcast on iTunes and on Spotify Also check out the LinkedIn profile of Gavin Allen.

Roger Bolton hosts a Brexit special and also asks if the BBC was right to air the Rivers of Blood speech in full. A panel of high-ranking BBC journalists and executives chew over listener complaints about the corporation's coverage of Brexit. Before the referendum, Feedback was inundated with complaints from listeners who felt that the BBC was overly biased in favour of Remain. But, in the months that have followed, that has shifted and the programme now receives more complaints from Remainers who see the BBC as the Brexit Broadcasting Corporation - in part thanks to a concerted online campaign. Ric Bailey the BBC's Chief Political Adviser, Gavin Allen the controller of the BBC's daily news programming, and Today presenter Nick Robinson respond to listener complaints from all sides. And, with some listeners saying that BBC comedy is too prone to bashing Brexit, is it possible to write a perfectly balanced comedy sketch? Cabin Pressure creator John Finnemore takes up the challenge. A recent edition of Archive on 4 dealing with Enoch Powell's 1968 Rivers of Blood speech quickly became the most talked about radio programme of the year. The documentary featured actor Ian McDiarmid recreating the speech in full interspersed with analysis from contributors. But news of the broadcast of the speech in full caused many to question the BBC's judgement and motives. Mohit Bakaya, the Radio 4 commissioner for the programme, explains the reasoning.

Roger Bolton explores listener reaction to BBC radio. The death of boxing legend Muhammad Ali blazed across BBC output in the last week - but did this coverage fail to portray the two sides of his character? Listeners questioned whether the reporting focused too heavily on his success and iconic image and neglected his more controversial moments. Controller of daily news programmes Gavin Allen explains how these decisions are made in the editorial process and what he feels the news programmes achieved. In the age of audiences having streaming websites and personal playlists at their fingertips, is there a place for music presenters to curate our listening? BBC 6 Music believe there is as it broadcasts its annual 6 Music Recommends Day. Reporter Rob Crossan goes behind the scenes with musicians and presenters to find out how they put together a 12 hour playlist of brand new music that will please a diverse set of listeners. He speaks to presenters Cerys Matthews, Steve Lamacq and Shaun Keaveny, as well as Head of Music Jeff Smith and Head of Programmes Paul Rogers. Roger Bolton also puts listener questions to BBC 6 Music Controller Bob Shennan, asking the station has evolved since its launch in 2002 and where it fits into the range of music radio stations. And in last week's Feedback, the BBC's assistant political editor Norman Smith explained how he feels the corporation's impartiality may affect reporting of the EU Referendum. It's a debate that many Feedback listeners felt compelled to join in. Produced by Kate Dixon. A Whistledown production for BBC Radio 4.
