This month we are re-releasing one of our most popular episodes- a conversation with Sir John Timpson, Chairman and owner of Timpson.Many observers can't understand how a firm of shoe repairers can keep its staff happier than some of Britain's richest companies. The answer lies with the chairman of Timpson and his no-nonsense approach to management.

That ethos is even more remarkable when you learn that around 12% of their employees are ex-convicts. Sir John's son, James Timpson, has just released a book about the Timpson approach called The Happy Index , where he describes the essence of the Timpson culture: Turn up on time. Trust your team.

The internet sees rampant bullying of autism parents but Tom McKean is calling BS. Diagnosed with autism in his teens, Tom, now in his mid-50s, became one of autism's very earliest self-advocates, along with Temple Grandin and a few others. Grounded in his desire to help those less fortunate than himself, he now writes and blogs about autism and its bizarre culture wars. Highlights: • His (bitter) experience being institutionalized in his late teens • His unexpected journey toward becoming an autism advocate • He has decades of witnessing parents' sacrifice and love for their children, but some of the newer and more vitriolic advocates are ignorant of the broader world of autism • Interviewer Jill Escher has been chatting with Tom about guitar for several months, and the two perform an impromptu and fairly ear-offending duet!

John Spence was born in Miami, Florida, where his Dad was a famous attorney, who made it to the covers of reputable magazines and had one wing of the law school at the University of Miami named after him. John went to a top grade school, got great grades, and was accepted to many different colleges. But for some reason, he messed up in college and got kicked out of the university of his choice, the University of Miami, where his father was one of the top alumni and was one of the board of directors of the university at that time. Turning in his records to another university, he was literally laughed at and turned down. But instead of throwing his future away, he chose to gather his composure and resolved to fix himself from that point forward.Highlights:His double-edged realization: He had to rebuild himself all by himself, which also meant he had to get every single help from all different sources possible -- people, books, videos, and the likes. His own definition of success: When your core values and self-concept are in harmony with your daily actions and behaviors. How his self-drawn discipline  turned his life around, transformed him from a college failure to graduating #3 in the US, and becoming a CEO at 26 real quick. How one's own written core values, the definition of success, purpose, and picture of ideal life help them live a life of clarity and confidence.How this whole process is an excellent idea of self-care that enables one to realize the value of helping and giving back to others.Although most people define or associate success with money, fame, power, and status, John's personal experiences and up-close encounters with some of the wealthiest people in the world made him realize considerably early in life that these things do not necessarily equate to success. Apparently, success is relative to whatever is part of one's personal set of core values. But an even greater predicament is that so many people, even executives, have not come up with their own definition of success let alone core values. It is for these certain causes that he has been in this business for t in three decades now,  and has come at par with great authors, keynote speakers, corporate educators, and business leaders and influencers in America and around the world.----------Connect with John via the following:Website: johnspence.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/johnbspence----------52 Weeks of Me is hosted by Jacklyn Osborne and Erika Brooks. Check out our website -  www.52weeksofme.net or follow us on Instagram @fiftytwoweeksofme. For suggestions and comments, email us at fiftytwoweeksofme@gmail.com.

My guest this week is Sir John TImpson, Chairman and owner of Timpson. Yes of Timpsons, the high street shop where we, our parents and perhaps our grandparents have gone to have shoes repaired, keys cut or in my case have holes punched in shoe and watch straps because they are always too big! John Timpson was born in 1943 and was educated at Oundle and Nottingham University. The Timpson family business, founded by Sir John's great grandfather in the 1860's, was taken over in 1973, but 10 years later Sir John led a £42m management buyout. In 1987 he sold the shoe shops and concentrated on building the shoe repairing and key cutting business.Timpson now has over 2000 branches nationwide, including the Max Spielmann, Johnsons the Cleaners and Snappy Snaps brands. In 2001, The Sunday Times list of best companies to work for had Timpson in 4th place - the highest placed retailer and the highest placed UK owned company. Many observers can't understand how a firm of shoe repairers can keep its staff happier than some of Britain's richest companies. The answer lies with the chairman of Timpson and his no-nonsense approach to management. John has ensured they do more than cut keys- they also have a culture of cutting out policy and processes so people can do the job to the best of their ability, and they embody some of the most progressive thinking in the business world. That ethos is even more remarkable when you learn that around 12% of their employees are ex-convicts. If looking after more than 2000 Timpson shops wasn't enough, Sir John also fostered over 90 children with his late wife Alex, and used what he learnt about attachment to influence the way he looked after his staff. He was appointed CBE in 2004 for services to the retail sector, and was knighted in the 2017 Birthday Honours for services to business and fostering.We talked about all of this, and plenty more: *Highlights:His early journey (4 mins)"Upside-down management" (5.5 mins)What the culture looks like in practice (7.5 mins)Giving staff autonomy on the front line (15 mins)Why they have a 'Director of Happiness' (19 mins)Looking after staff mental health and wellbeing (21 mins)The Timpson recruitment strategy (26 mins)Performance mangement and the 'Happy Index' (29 mins)Recruiting from prison (34.5 mins)His reflections from fostering over 90 children (39.5 mins)What the NHS can learn from the Timpson culture (43 mins)A book, a role model, and top tips (45 mins)*Social media:John's son often tweets about the company values and progress- @JamesTCobbler@NextGGP/@nishmanek*Subscribe to the Next Gen GP monthly bulletin to keep in the loop about future webinars, podcast episodes, and our virtual programmes:bit.ly/NGGPbulletin Hosted on Acast.

UK-based athletic adventurer Ross Edgley talks with Nick and Heather just days before undertaking an unbelievable feat: swimming all the way around Great Britain at a very muscular 220-plus pounds. This is a true deep-dive into the limits of human training and performance, philosophy, and "strongman swimming," all of which come together in Edgley's new best-seller, "The World's Fittest Book." Highlights: - His day today: An impromptu 30km swim, aka, "an eating competition with a little bit of swimming." - On mental thresholds versus physical ones, and "craving" the insanity of extreme challenges - His rule on training: "I have to be able to say in a single sentence what I'm training for." - The push-and-pull relationship with muscle and endurance sports - The unique advantage that muscle can provide in water - The advantage and disadvantage of muscular weight for runners and other athletes - Ross's "shapely hips" as a life-saver for swimming - How he landed on the "Tree-athlon," and on swimming as the arena to push his limits - The strange advantage that swimming while pulling a tree provides (it's mental) - On swimming around Great Britain: "It could be as little 3,000km, or as much as 5-6,000km." - "A successful swim will be a byproduct of efficient feeding strategies, prehab, rehab, sleeping correctly, taking care of any wounds, abrasions, chafing, salt mouth. The swim will be a byproduct of doing all of that right basically. So the swimming's not even the hard part in a weird way." - The 10-year journey that resulted in The World's Fittest Book - Why he tries to teach "methods" rather than programs - His fitness utopia: "I would love it if ultrarunners are no longer scared to go and you know chat to the powerlifters and hang out in the squat rack. And equally, if powerlifters and bodybuilders won't be scared to go and run an ultramarathon, or even just a 5 or a 10k, in fear that their muscles'll waste away." - On reading philosophy versus reading fitness books prior to his greatest challenges Be sure to follow us on social media for daily fitness updates!

Researcher and "Physique Scientist" Dr. Bill Campbell, the head of the Physique Enhancement Laboratory at the University of South Florida, talks about two groundbreaking studies he's worked on regarding protein intake for women and flexible dieting, as well as the incredible science of strength training for fat loss. Highlights: - His protein study: Dial in your protein and "do whatever you want with carbs and fat, I don't care. Just don't diet." - "The protein aberration": 425 extra calories per day, but no fat gained. - The flaw in the study, from the study's author - "If I didn't see that in my own lab, in my own data I wouldn't believe it." - There's a catch: You need to lift! - The flexible dieting study: "To the best of my knowledge, we did the first study in resistance trained individuals with this flexible dieting paradigm." - "We wanted to see how people would come out of these diets. How would their bodies respond if you were previously tracking or if you were following a rigid diet?" - The short-term results vs. the long-term potential of this study. - What these two studies say about the scale as a way to measure progress - Why adding muscle mass is always a win - How Bill Campbell measures progress if not on the scale - What he's planning on studying next about flexible dieting - How flexible dieting can be "self-correcting" - What's next from his lab: carb-cycling - Why strength training is essential for both the "leaning out" athlete and the beginner Be sure to follow us on social media for daily fitness updates!
