Podcasts about Kwasi

Former Chancellor Kwasi Kwarteng delivers talks about his 49 days in the Treasury in this interview with Mark. He discusses why the UK is trapped in a doom loop of high taxes and low growth, shares his thoughts on Brexit's benefits and explains why panic killed his economic reforms. He gives his thoughts on Trump's policies, Britain's energy crisis, and what it really takes to succeed in business and politics. KEY TAKEAWAYS Kwasi shares how a network of unelected civil servants and regulatory bodies has accumulated enormous power over the past 25 years, often working against elected government policies and maintaining the status quo regardless of which party is in power. The UK is trapped in a vicious cycle where high government spending forces higher taxes, which kills growth, leading to even higher taxes. The government now spends £1 trillion annually, all ultimately funded by the private sector. Kwasi admits three critical mistakes of the mini budget, moving too fast, cutting taxes without reducing spending and panicking when markets reacted negatively. The energy price intervention alone cost massive amounts in a brief discussion. Public sector spending cannot drive economic growth since it's funded by taxing the private sector. Real growth comes from encouraging entrepreneurship and commercial activity, not government investment. Brexit provides essential flexibility, despite implementation challenges, leaving the EU gives Britain the freedom to negotiate independent trade deals and avoid being bound by policies designed for 27 other countries with different economic needs. Net zero policies have made UK energy prices among the world's highest, killing industrial competitiveness. The windfall tax on North Sea oil and gas is particularly damaging to energy security and investment. Both in business and politics, success demands unwavering optimism and self-belief. Leaders must project confidence and energy, as people won't follow those who expect failure or constantly blame external factors. BEST MOMENTS "We went too far, too fast, and I think the worst thing you can do when things start going wrong... is when we started to panic." "I said to the officials, I said, look, we've gotta be able to take 50 billion out of the spending. If I said to anyone in this room, you've gotta reduce your spending by 5%... most people should be able to do that." "Our national debt in 2005... was 500 billion. 20 years ago it was 500 billion and now it's 2.7 trillion. It's completely nuts." "The private sector pays for the public sector... someone, ultimately, many people in this room, I imagine, has to pay for it." "If you don't believe in yourself, why should anyone else believe in you?"

Take the survey now: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1iHRZvOly_Q7aprlQBF7n38y0EjgvnHw2OdYII8yQElc/edit?ts=670d0111 Former UK Chancellor Kwasi Kwarteng joins Rob in this episode for a candid discussion about Labour's recent budget, the state of the UK economy, and the future of money. They discuss Rachel Reeves' £40 billion tax hike and explore the implications of a cashless society whilst Kwarteng also gives his thoughts and insight from his time at the Treasury. His candid analysis of socialism, entrepreneurship, and global economic trends makes this episode essential for anyone interested in understanding where Britain's economy is heading! Kwasi Kwarteng REVEALS: ·       Labour's recent budget represents the largest tax hike since 1993, with £25 billion coming from employers' national insurance contributions ·       Why the budget could stifle economic growth and job creation ·       Why China could potentially become the world's next reserve currency power ·       The UK and other European countries are caught in a "doom loop" where slow growth leads to higher taxes, which further reduces growth potential. ·       Modern socialism still operates on Marxist principles of class warfare, setting workers against employers, despite their shared interests in economic success ·       Why the shift toward a cashless society poses significant risks to personal freedom and financial privacy while making budgeting more difficult for individuals. ·       The housing crisis in Britain requires significant planning reform, but political resistance and short-term thinking have prevented meaningful progress ·       World Wars I and II fundamentally transformed the relationship between state and citizen, leading to permanently expanded government spending and taxation BEST MOMENTS "You're never going to get the growth in the next two or three years that they need. And the risk for them is that in two years time, they come up with more tax raises, which will damage the economy more." "If we all refuse to shop anywhere where they didn't take cash, they would all take cash." "The Chinese have got tons of gold, I mean metaphorically and really, and they could say, okay, now not saying they will do this, but there's a world in which they could say, right, we're gonna back the rebi with gold." "If we all didn't watch BBC or pay for the TV licence, all of us, mainstream media in the UK would change overnight.”   VALUABLE RESOURCES https://robmoore.com/ bit.ly/Robsupporter   https://robmoore.com/podbooks  rob.team Episode Sponsor - AG1 Claim your exclusive offer of AG1 at the link below drinkag1.com/disruptors ABOUT THE HOST Rob Moore is an author of 9 business books, 5 UK bestsellers, holds 3 world records for public speaking, entrepreneur, property investor, and property educator.

Dean's chat Co-hosts, Doctors Jeff Jensen and Johanna Richey interview Dr. Kwasi Kwaadu, Assistant Residency Director from Temple University and director of the Charcot and Limb Salvage Center!  Originally from Ghana, Dr. Kwaadu talks about how his childhood has influenced his perspective and his career. Dr. Kwaadu graduated in 2005 with his undergraduate degree from Temple University and went on to complete his Podiatric medical school there as well. He completed his 3-year surgical residency program with Aria Health in Philadelphia and completed a 1-year fellowship program under Dr. Justin Flemming with The Philadelphia Foot and Ankle Fellowship.  Join us as we discuss “all things podiatric medicine”, including Dr. Kwaadu's extensive experience with research. We discuss his own fellowship as well as the trade-offs and benefits residents can consider when looking at career options in podiatric medicine and surgery.  Dr. Kwaadu emphasizes the importance of emotional intelligence (EQ) over IQ in various aspects of his life and work, noting that managing people's emotions is delicate and consequential. Understanding and navigating emotions play a significant role in leadership and teamwork. Dr. Kwaadu shares personal experiences where emotional intelligence has been pivotal in his interactions with colleagues, students, and his children. He discusses the value of emotional intelligence in managing relationships, resolving conflicts, and fostering a positive work environment. Additionally, he mentions the significance of emotional intelligence in research, where handling feedback and peer reviews requires a high level of EQ. Overall, research catalyzes self-improvement, innovation, and the advancement of knowledge in various fields. It allows individuals to critically evaluate their practices, challenge assumptions, and contribute to the evolution of best practices in their respective domains. Balancing work and family life, especially with children, requires dedication and a focus on creating meaningful experiences. Dr. Kwasi Kwaadu shared insights into how he manages his busy clinical practice, academic responsibilities, and family life with his twin boys in the podcast episode. He emphasized the importance of being present for his children and making time for them, even amidst a demanding schedule. Dr. Kwaadu also emphasizes the significance of research in challenging traditional practices and promoting continuous improvement. Research findings can sometimes contradict established beliefs, leading to a reevaluation of treatment modalities. For example, he mentioned the case of microfracturing in orthopedic surgery, where research findings may suggest alternative or more effective treatment options. Moreover, research fosters a culture of humility and openness to new ideas. By engaging in research, individuals are encouraged to question existing norms, seek evidence-based solutions, and adapt their practices based on new information. Dr. Kwaadu's discussion on the peer review process in research also highlighted the importance of receiving constructive feedback and being receptive to different perspectives. Dr. Kwaadu highlighted the significance of creating meaningful experiences with his children, such as going for walks, visiting the playground, and engaging in physical activities together. He expressed a deep sense of responsibility and a desire to provide his children with positive and enriching experiences, viewing his role as a parent as a second chance to create a strong bond and lasting memories.
